This may or may not be a Firefox 8 issue, but so far Twitter could not help me & other Twitter-users do not have these issues.

I have upgraded to Firefox 8 2 weeks ago. For 5 days now I cannot access certain Twitter-features: Lists I follow, my favourites and others (just get a blank screen on Twitter). On Twitter Help I read that a number of Firefox 8 users do have similar issues.

Please advice.

A unrelated issue: Firefox 8 is faster, but still uses loads of memory & crashes often.

I am struggling with Twitter too and there seems to be no support there to speak of at all.

I am completely unable to post on Twitter using Firefox and my Timelein does not renew automatically. I have the latest version 8.0.1 on Mac. I have cleared the cache and cookies, but nothing happens. I just get the same old error message from twitter "oops w did something wrong etc.."

I can post via Safari and other browsers. Will try setting permissions and re-booting to see if this fixes the issue.

Meanwhile, thanks for any help.
