Twhirl log-in = Authentication Failed! (Status:304)
I am trying to log in to Twhirl (as I often do), but today it is telling me that it cannot log in (authentication failed) with that name or password, followed by error number 304. I have not changed any settings and I am able to log in to twitter's website and update my status. I am using Mac OS 10.4.11. Any ideas?
I’m frustrated

Hi all, sorry that I didn't respond sooner. :( Needless to say it got a little crazy there for a while, but thats not a good enough excuse not to make time to hop in here and answer your questions.
It *seems* like Twhirl's inability to login was directly related to API issues stemming from Twitters caching issues today. And, yes, we do need to implement a better way to inform you when Twhirl issues are based on a twitter failure rather than any user or client error. (i.e. "twitter is broke, not us")
Thank you for helping one another out in our absence.
I’m making a mental note to hop in here no matter how crazy it gets on the "front lines"

Inappropriate?Is this related to twitter's caching service going down?

maybe you need some way of updating your users when theres a problem like this. Rather than us all searching help topics.

Inappropriate?Same issue for me, checked my twitter a/c and that's functioning fine. Twhirl V 0.81, Vista Ultimate. -
Inappropriate?Glad to know its not unique, and I am amazed at how quickly people joined this topic and replied. I guess this is the Twitter community, afterall... -
Inappropriate?Just saw a message on Twitter from Twhirl saying to restart, but it's still not working...

Inappropriate?Still no luck for me signing in. Sorry, could not log you in to twitter
with that username and password.
Could not authenticate you.
