I spent about 1 hour creating 2 new lists and they simply disappeared, even after I received an email confirming I created the lists. When I click on the link from the email, the page says: "The list you're looking for is unavailable. It may be a temporary problem. Try reloading this page." -- but it doesn't seem like a temp problem, the lists seem to be gone from my account.

My lists appear to be gone also; when I go to my account page, it says "0 lists" and I had around 22 or so. Also, when I try to access the "Newest Lists" page or the list pages for various films, I keep getting the "500 error" message. Is there something wrong with the list function?

Edit: My lists are back now; don't know what the problem was.

Can you please include a link to your IMDb user profile page and to one of your lists, if possible? Lists appear to be working (http://www.imdb.com/lists) so this may affect only some accounts and having more details will help pinpoint the problem.

thanks

I've occasionally received a "500 error - page not found" when accessing my list. Most of the time, this is a temporary problem that corrects itself in a few minutes.

Thanks a lot for the reply, the problem was fixed by itself somehow, it was probably temporary indeed. So relieved :)
Thanks!

The same thing happened to me! I created two lists, and when I looked for them today, poof! No more!

Hi Sally Ann Izetta Irwin,

Are you still unable to see your lists? I'm not seeing any problems with my list or the list system in general.

One remote possibility is that you forgot to save your lists. If you start a list and don't save it, it will not directly show up in you list of lists. Fortunately, if that were the case, the lists would not be lost; they show up on the pending tab on your list page.
