You should use the list of fixes below to help you resolve your issue.

Why is the Tweet All Button Greyed Out?

1. You’ve clicked the Add Button to Add Another Tweet to Your Thread, But You Didn’t Type Anything

Many times, the tweet button is greyed out because you added another tweet to your thread without even meaning to and didn’t type anything, but this is still causing you to have issues with not being able to access the tweet button. Read the next fix to get your button working again.

Fix – Click the X Button to Close The Thread You Didn’t Write Anything In

In order to fix the previous issue, you just need to click on the X button to close the thread in which you didn’t write anything. Closing the thread will be a quick fix to having the Tweet button all greyed out.

2. You’ve Went Over the Character Limit

If you are familiar with Twitter, you are most likely familiar with the character limit Twitter imposes. This means that every tweet out there needs to be under 240 characters, or it will not be able to post. If you notice that the Tweet button is greyed out, perhaps you went over the Twitter character limit.

Fix – Make Sure None of the Tweets Go Over the Character Limit

In order to try and fix the issue with your tweet button being greyed out, you will want to ensure that you are not exceeding your character limit of 240. This should not be too difficult, as when tweeting, you should be able to see how many characters you are over, so use this to reduce the characters until you are within the 240-character limit.

3. Twitter Server Is Down

Often, social media apps find themselves having issues with their servers and may have to be down for a few minutes or hours, and Twitter is not immune to this and could easily be dealing with having their system down. If this is the case, you will most likely receive some sort of error, such as the unknown error many users get when this happens. Unfortunately, when any social media app or website is down, there is very little that a user can do other than simply wait until the social media app’s network and servers are back up and running again.

Fix – Wait For Twitter To Go Back Up

Now, if you realize that Twitter is down, all you can do is wait for it to go back up. If you are not sure that Twitter is actually down and this is the issue at all, go ahead and simply make a Google search on your browser and search “Twitter down”. This will bring up lots of results that will easily confirm whether the site is down or not. Once you confirm that the social media app is down, you will want to prepare for the wait. Usually, most times that this is the issue, the issue is resolved quickly as there are many users that want to get back on the app as soon as possible.
