TIP: Sometimes switching to mobile.twitter.com will show your missing tweets.
- My Tweets and Hashtags are not showing up in search.
- My Tweet count is incorrect.
- I’m missing mentions and/or @replies.
- I have a different Twitter problem—my problem isn’t listed here.
- Tweets that should appear in a search don’t

My Tweets And Hashtags Don’t Show Up In Search!
There are several reasons this could be happening. Very old or protected tweets won’t show up, of course. And Tweets from new accounts (or newly changed usernames) can take a few days to show up.
But if those issues are not your problem, do this: log out and log back in at Twitter.com. If you see a big red warning saying your email address is having delivery issues, you need to fix it before Twitter will show your tweets in search (links are provided for what to do).
While it’s true that Twitter technical problems can block tweets from showing up in search, you should first check to make sure YOU haven’t broken any of Twitter’s rules or best practices.
Have you broken any Twitter rules?
Twitter will NOT show the tweets of anyone who fails to follow these Twitter rules or these Twitter best practices.
The good news
You can request that Twitter show your tweets in search, but you’ll have to agree to follow the rules and best practices before they will reverse the decision not to show your tweets. File a ticket at http://j.mp/twicket and explain that your tweets are missing and you’d like to know what you need to do to have them come back.
Missing Mentions and @Replies
The symptom here is that you’re missing older tweets or seeing an incomplete number of tweets when viewing your @username mentions in the the replies tab on Twitter.com. If you cannot page back to see older @username mentions this is your issue. Go here and let Twitter know this affects you.
If you’re just not receiving all my @ replies, know that Twitter is working on a long-term fix for the missing @ replies problem. You need to let them know you’re affected by filing a ticket at http://j.mp/twicket.
My Tweet Count is Incorrect
This issue is still affecting many people. You can read the latest from Twitter here.

My mentions will not pop up on my phone !
I joined Twitter last week and followed 15 people… I can see my own Tweets, but I’m not seeing my Tweets on other people’s feed. I’m also using Tweetdeck for my desktop. Am I going about this the wrong way or is this a bug? Please help. Thanks so much!
Im having the same problem as ricky71. i tweet someone and it only appears on my page and not theirs i can see other people tweeting them but not mine? r they seeing the tweet?
Hey. all my tweets are gone from my twitter and it now says ‘you haven’t tweeted yet’ how do i restore all of my tweets ? is there anything you can do to help. i really need my tweets back !!
Sorry for overlooking your comment! Looks like it’s all working again…good to see!
Since yesterday some of my tweets are not showing. I didn’t delete none of them, so I don’t know what’s wrong. The number of tweets are correct, but when I go to to read my tweets it doesn’t show all the total tweets I have. I tried refreshing and It doesn’t work. How can I get my tweets back? Thanks!
Sorry to hear that, Sel. Twitter sometimes has interface problems that can be solved by http://bit.ly/QuickTwitterFix …I’d try that first.
My mobile Twitter hasn’t worked properly for a while and now I can’t loiad the timeline, all I get is ‘Protected Tweets’ at the top and my profile page on my mobile shows @Null does not show my image, how many people I’m following etc. Whats wrong with it?
Have you done a delete and reinstall of your Twitter app? Unfortunately, that is commonly needed
I’ve tried downloading and reinstalling probably 5 or 6 times. It doesn’t work
Sorry to hear that! When you delete and reinstall without success, the next step is to contact Twitter via http://bit.ly/TWICKET
My tweets are in my profile but not appearing in timeline. Any ideas? Cheers
Did you try the first tip in this post, i.e. “TIP: Clearing your browser cache http://bit.ly/FixBrowser often fixes some missing tweet problems.” ?

new to Twitter and can’t find the answer. My tweet TO someone I’m following (@—-) shows up on MY Twitter page, but not on theirs…I see tweets from other followers of that person showing up there…is there a delay where they have to accept it? Just want to be sure my msg is being seen by the person it was intended to reach – thanks
To check, I’d need the name of your Twitter account, the URL that you are calling “their…Twitter page” and the URL of the tweet. But know that sometimes Twitter has errors in showing all tweets.
I think i had experienced the same scenario, or at least one similar as SLiguori. Straight from the beginning, when i tryed to directly reply to a tweet of someone i was following (@username ) my tweet appeared on my page but never on the recipient public page tweet/conversation box (twitter.com/username). At first I thought it was related to the recipient not following me, even if i was seeing many other not followed users tweets show up in those same discussions while mine remained unseen, but i also tryed with someone that, by chance, was following me and nothing changed. Only way i had to make some of my tweets appear , other than watching my page, was doing a search with @username of the recipients but even then, opening the box, they were not tied to any discussion even if it showed that they were “in reply” of another message. Unfortunately the only other detail i can give is that my account was not set to private, as i have already deactivated it, cursing twitter in any languages i know, after about a week of total isolation. Hope this infos could be of some use and I’ll check back this thread to see if you find out what the problem could be. I would like to give twitter another try but i don’t want to risk another week of basically tweeting to myself…it’s not good for health
Twitter shows your tweets to others even when it doesn’t correctly display the conversation or properly show them in search.
The problem isn’t that your tweets aren’t reaching others, the problem is that the display of conversations doesn’t always work. It sucks, I realize, but know that your tweets are getting through.
yeah, but how I do I know if my tweets ARE getting through if I can’t see my tweets on their feed?? I sent a pic to one person I followed last night and today, it looks like it never was there at all.
Tweets are kind of like email or voicemail—there is no way to know if someone has received them unless they reply.
After i deleted many of my tweets, my twitter page only let me scroll 2 times and then says “Back to top” . Are you kidding me ? I have over 4500 tweets. A little help needed here.
thank you
Twitter regularly increases and decreases the number of tweets you can see to help limit network traffic. A tip: To see the most tweets available at any one time, HOLD DOWN the page down key on your keyboard until the page stops scrolling. For some reason, holding it down almost always shows you more pages than scrolling down, or than by pressing page down once, pausing, pressing again, etc.
Hello!
Well my question is…if I tweeted someone while my tweets were protected and after a few hours reversed the change,made them public ,is that person able to see them now?
Thank you!
Yes, they are visible now, but no, they are probably NOT being shown in the person’s mention tab. So even though the person is “able to see them” as you put it, they probably won’t notice the tweet.

Suddenly I lost all my tweets on my profile?! And when I tweet it does show my tweet in the timeline but not on my profile. On my profile is said that I haven’t tweeted yet..?
Twitter is having some problems at the moment, and is working on a fix. In the meantime, you can try mobile.twitter.com.
