Logged onto twitter on my computer, but the layout and website address keep changing to the mobile display.? - cocobean - 11-19-2012 02:56 AM
All of a sudden my Twitter account on my computer looks how it should when on twitter using a smart phone. The web address now even says http//:mobile.twitter.com. Even when i try to log in using the regular computer twitter the web address automatically changes to mobile twitter. How do I view twitter on the computer the regular way, not the mobile version?

Same thing happened to me. You need to upgrade your browser.
From the Twitter website:
IE6 and 7 Users See mobile.twitter.com Instead of twitter.com
If you use Twitter on your Internet Explorer 6 or 7 browser, then you will see mobile.twitter.com instead of twitter.com when you log in.
Not all twitter.com features are compatible with IE6 or 7, so we have started to direct all IE6 and 7 users to mobile.twitter.com to provide the most stable experience within the browser.
If you would like to use the standard version of Twitter from your browser, we recommend an upgrade.
