Tweetie for Mac Tip #1
Saturday, May 9th, 2009Holy Mac! Tweetie for Mac is THE BEST Twitter client ever. But a few folk had issues when trying to use the multiple account feature. If the multi account set up (found in Tweetie > Preferences > Accounts) won’t work for you, simply try this little trick …..
- Enter you password into the password box FIRST
- THEN enter your Username into its box
- Click “add Account”
And all is well. Why this “reverse entry” works, I have no idea. But it did for us and several other Tweetie lovers.

Tweetie for Mac – the BEST Twitter Tool Yet
Saturday, May 9th, 2009Holy Mac! If you’re a Mac user, there’s only one Twitter tool you need to use: Tweetie for Mac. Yes, it’s better that TweetDeck, better than Seesmic Desktop, better than Hootsuite, better than Twhirl, better than Twitteriffic. There, I said it.
Some of the best features are:
- Multi-Accounts
- Internal Photo viewer
- Conversation threads
- Growl integration
- and the list goes on, and on, and on.
It’s awesome. Do yourself a favour. And did I mention that it’s free..?
