Check your add ons, if any are enable, disable them. Then enable them one by one until you find the one blocking Twitter from loading. Or just keep all of them disable.

I'd try to uninstall Firefox, make sure all Firefox data is deleted, then reinstall.

Which means you still had Firefox files on computer. When you uninstall you also have remove all files left behind.

Use Revo uninstall app to uninstall Firefox , Revo will also install all files and data left behind. It will ask first if this is what you want.

Does Twitter load now?

If not, get a app called Search Everything. Uninstall Firefox again, delete files, then search for Firefox files with search everything. That app will hunt down every damn file associated with Firefox. Delete them, then reinstall Firefox.

What I'd do is uninstall, then copy and paste the above one at a time in your search. Delete. Should solve problem.

Well yeah, you knew that was going to happen if you deleted firefox files, right? Pain in the ass to have to put back your bookmarks and such, but obviously firefox wasn't working right and now it does.

Yeah, but what is up with my iPad struggling to load tweets, videos, and other media? I know you have all of the answers.

Dang if I know, haven't run into that problem on my iPad. Maybe some one else here has and can help.
