Twitter is currently looking into an issue where certain users have become "locked out" after attempting to change their e-mail address, username, or password.
What should you do? Nothing! Do NOT attempt to change your e-mail address, username, or password until Twitter gets a handle on the issue.
Here's the word from the Twitter status board:
We’re currently researching reports from users who are locked out after trying to reset their passwords or change their email address or user names. This seems to affect new users as well as long term users; we do not advise changing your user name, email address, or password at this time. We will update Status with more news as it becomes available.
One additional note: If you have made any of the above changes, but ARE able to successfully log in, stay logged in for a couple of hours and do NOT use any third party applications.
Twitter says this may be related to a caching issue and should have it resolved soon.
