It's broken again for me. I can go no further than p. 41 now which equals April 2008.

It's still broken for me, I can only go back to a few months ago:

My faith in Twitter is lost.

hi guys,

I posted an update here:
http://getsatisfaction.com/twitter/to...

the changes should be effective for everyone in the next few days. If, in a few days, you're still not able to browse back, let us know.

I had only 10 or so pages when I checked this morning, but I can now get up to page 81 so I can access all my Tweets dating back to Feb 07. Yay! :D – Dan, on September 05, 2008 13:35

Hmm.. some people in this thread are saying they have full access to their archive. The earliest tweet I can browse is up until August 6, 2008. My first tweet (which I can find via search.twitter.com) is from June 9th, 2008.

A comment on the question "Why can't I view all of my updates?" in Twitter:

I've got the same results: page 11/12/13/etc. are accessible, but don't show any historical tweets...only the most recent. – JetaTek, on September 05, 2008 12:24

A comment on the question "Why can't I view all of my updates?" in Twitter:

Another update. I'm once again able to browse all the way back to page 160 on my Archives. And I'm up to page 18 on my Recent timeline (which is now almost 5 hours worth of tweets). – mdy, on September 05, 2008 08:57

A comment on the question "Why can't I view all of my updates?" in Twitter:

I can echo psd's sentiment as for how serious I consider this to be. Prior to this crisis, Twitter had no stronger advocate and agent in my local area than myself. I have sold it to friends and people I work with on every possible occasion. After this, I'm more sceptical that you really know what you are doing. For instance, if you don't understand the business value of mining the back catalogue of tweets (for market analysis,for instance) then I don't know how you're going to make money. And if you don't understand how to make money, then you're going out of business. And so is my data. Hence I don't know if I can reliably trust in you. – Morten Blaabjerg, on September 05, 2008 08:29

I can go back beyond page ten now, but I haven't tried to go further than that. Twitter is doing what I want it to now ie. allowing me to keep up with the ebb and flow of my friends' Tweets for the last few days and be part of a little 'community'.

Morten Blaabjerg replied on September 05, 2008 07:25 to the question "Why can't I view all of my updates?" in Twitter:

First, thanks Biz for replying to this and taking this seriously.

Second, I now have access to my full archives, it seems, all the way back to my first tweet on Oct 26th 2007 :-) I do not experience the error others are reporting above.

A comment on the question "Why can't I view all of my updates?" in Twitter:

Thanks Biz for replying and finally looking into this. I'm not sure what the delay says about Twitter or getsatisfaction.

Whilst I appreciate you guys have been stretched with other issues, in particular stability, the inability to access my old tweets to mine and annotate is incredibly frustrating and has been eroding my trust in Twitter and enthusiasm to advocate people use it. As of now, my archive of old tweets is still broken - pages 12 and beyond empty apart from the latest tweet: http://flickr.com/photos/psd/2829378939/ – psd, on September 05, 2008 07:16

jonee replied on September 05, 2008 07:02 to the question "Why can't I view all of my updates?" in Twitter:

I am in the same situation as Hitsman above, I can go back further than 10 pages now, but on page 11 and beyond I can only see my most recent tweet, so although things seem to be moving in the right direction it doesn't appear to be totally fixed (for me at least) yet.

A comment on the question "Why can't I view all of my updates?" in Twitter:

Quick update: I just checked mine again now. I'm able to browse through 43 pages of my Archives, which takes me back to May 2008. 6 hours ago, I was able to browse all the way back to page 160 (for a total of 3200 tweets dating back to Jan 2007).

Also I'm currently able to browse back to page 13 of my Recent timeline -- equivalent to roughly 3 hours worth of tweets for my account. 6 hours ago, I could go all the way back to page 19 (which was around 2 hours worth of tweets -- most of the people I follow are asleep right now). – mdy, on September 05, 2008 06:34

A comment on the question "Why can't I view all of my updates?" in Twitter:

Confirming hitsman's problem. I see more than one tweet on page 11, but pages 12 and beyond are empty save for my latest status. At least the current behavior is better than what Twitter used to do when the user requested a page number that was too high (302 to page 1).

Ditto: Thanks for the update, but it's still broken as far as I'm concerned. – Voyagerfan5761, on September 05, 2008 02:07

Thanks for the update!

The older button is no longer disabled for me, but I only get 1 tweet on page 11 and none on pages beyond that, even though I have many more updates beyond page 10. Thanks for the update, but it seems still to be broken. : ( – hitsman, on September 05, 2008 00:20

mdy replied on September 05, 2008 00:11 to the question "Why can't I view all of my updates?" in Twitter:

Looks like the fix that @biz mentioned has been deployed.

I'm able to go all the way back to page 160 on my Archives pages! Which in the case of my account shows tweets dating all the way back to Jan 2007.

And it seems that I can go back 19 pages now in my Recent tab (used to be 10).

@biz Thx much for your update.

Biz Stone replied on September 04, 2008 20:33 to the question "Why can't I view all of my updates?" in Twitter:

Hi Folks. Every tweet is saved forever and they belong to you. The fact that you can't access them past a certain point right now is an technical challenge that we're working on.

If all goes well, the next engineering update will fix the "Older" button and give you web access as far as 3,200 tweets back. I understand that is still an unacceptable limitation—we will continue to work on it. Additionally, you will be able to go more pages back on your home page timeline.

We're hoping to get these changes out today but it doesn't always go exactly to plan. Thanks for you patience!

Well I am completely dissatisfied with Twitter's utter silence on this issue. My writing in any form whether is be 140 characters on Twitter's servers is mine.

Not being allowed access to the contributions I have made to build Twitter's business and profile is totally unacceptable. It's a violation of trust not to mention Twitter's own Terms of Service.

Cut and paste from Jules Joyce post:

--Twitter is not living up to their own terms of service, as noted via http://twitter.com/tos, this is very nearly copyright infringement:

"We claim no intellectual property rights over the material you provide to the Twitter service. Your profile and materials uploaded remain yours."--

If I don't receive a clear explanation of why this is occurring but more importantly when it will be amended within 10 days of this post then I will take further and much more serious action.
