Using different refresh-rates for multiple Twitter-Accounts is still not possible?
We got a shared account and I would like to use it for writing only.
I got stuck in an infinite loop when it asked me if it could update my FB wall and I said "no". I had to quckly press the "X" many times to finally get out of the dialog. It kept popping new ones over the old one. This is on Ubuntu 9.04.
Why has tr.im been removed from the supported URL shorteners?
When I updated to the new version and started the program again, all my tweets, mentions and dm's were gone. Can i restore them somehow?
Any tips on how to get other Facebook pages to show up? I added my Facebook account which manages 3 pages. Only 1 of the pages (most recently created one) showed as an option. Is there something I need to do on the Facebook pages to get them all to show up?
I had Facebook column in previous version. It did not copy over to v0.30, and I am unable to add it. Please advise! Thanks.

For some reason I can't seem to download the new version. When I click open in the Air app install dialogue I get the following: "The application could not be installed because the AIR file is damaged. Try obtaining a new AIR file from the application author." I've tried saving the air file first and then opening it but no luck there either.
I got it sorted out. I was getting the error when I clicked on the "Download now, it's free" button, but I was able to download/install it using the smaller Version 0.30 link below the button.
TweetDeck V3.0 will not get past the log in screen. I put in the password then TweetDeck does nothing.
I am also having this issue - had Facebook column in previous version. It did not copy over to v0.30, and I am unable to add it. Please advise! Thanks.
The buttons for adding your facebook account does seem to work.

I gave up and uninstalled it. Now using Seesmic.
My TweetDeck columns didn't carry over from the old 26.4 version to the new 30.0 version. I'm using Seesmic for now.
I keep getting the "log into facebook" popup at every refresh and I really think the ignore newfeeds from certain friends should transfer over from FB to Tweetdeck
to those having FB issues, which i came here searching for the solution...i logged completely out of tweetdeck as a last ditch effort before posting my plea for help...and viola. it fixed itself. :)
