If I cannot load Twitter with Safari, I will have to abandon Safari

Safari no longer loads Twitter. Running Safari 12.1.2 on Sierra. Have tried the Apple support ideas and none worked. Hate to change to Chrome or Firefox but I may have no choice if I cannot get to Twitter. Works fine on Chrome and Firefox. Use Twitter a lot.

I use Safari 12.1.2 and I just loaded Twitter without any problems. Have you tried deleting the associated cookies from Safari/Preferences/Privacy/Manage Website Data, quit/reopen Safari and tried again?


Not knowing what you have tried.


Safari can’t open a website


 Safari – slow page loads


 Safari - Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues


Safari doesn't load a page or webpage items are missing


Web Content not responding


Are you running any anti - virus programs? Using a VPN?


Try setting up another admin user account in System Preferences/Users & Groups to see if the same problem continues. Please post back on whether or not this worked. Also try the Safe Mode. Please post back on whether or not this worked.
