Twitter's chief executive Jack Dorsey had his account briefly suspended because of what he called an "internal mistake".
The co-founder of the social network wrote on Tuesday night: "Just setting up my twttr...again (account suspension was an internal mistake)."
For about 15 minutes anyone trying to access his account received a message stating that it was suspended.
Only Twitter can suspend accounts although users can deactivate them.
His account is now up and running again but all previous tweets are no longer visible.
The incident comes as Twitter struggles to increase the number of users and is still looking to make a profit.
Dorsey returned to the company last year as chief executive but has yet to steer it towards growth.
Twitter recently announced that chief operating officer Adam Bain was leaving and that it was axing jobs following disappointing financial results.
It said it would be losing 9% of its workforce and is to wind up its looping video application Vine in the coming months.
A number of reports have said the company was in talks to find a buyer but no deal has emerged.
