    1. Be sure to check your junk or spam filters on your email inbox. Many small domains filter our emails. Search for any emails from "Twitter."
    2. Enter your email address on the password form instead of a username. This will ensure you're checking the right email inbox. This will ensure that we're sending the emails to the inbox you're checking.
    3. If you are requesting a password reset to the correct email address but it isn't arriving, file a support ticket here.

    I'm receiving the password reset emails but I still can't log in!

    1. Try again – the links in those emails are time-sensitive. Be sure you haven't copied and pasted any extra spaces if you copy the link.
    2. Try logging in from a different browser (we suggest Firefox, which can be downloaded for free) or computer.
    3. Make sure your browser accepts cookies. Before saving your new password, you should also try clearing your browser's cache.

    • Make sure your signup was successful. Check your email inbox for the confirmation we send you when you successfully signed up for an account. 
      • If it looks like you didn't create an account, you can sign up again here.
      • If you did create a new account but can't log in, request a new password here. Be sure to check your spam and junk folders too for our password email.
