If you want to stream video content on Twitch, you need to link your game client account to the platform. But sometimes all you get is a blank page that never fully loads with the following link: https:// id . twitch . tv/connections/callback_error.
This error can randomly affect your Steam, Blizzard, or Riot account. It is not specific to a gaming client or gaming platform only.
In this guide, we’ll take a closer look at callback errors on Twitch, namely what causes them and how you can fix them.
How to Fix Callback Errors on Twitch
Fix 1 – Log out and clear your browser cookies
The first thing you should do is log out of Twitch completely. Close all Twitch tabs or Twitch-related processes running in the background.
Now, it’s time to clear your browser cache and cookies. For step-by-step instructions, go to the support page of your current browser:
Log back in and link your account again to test if this method worked for you.
Fix 2 – Disable your ad blockers
Adblocking extensions might be blocking the link that allows you to connect your game client account to Twitch. Start by disabling your ad-blocker and try again. Make sure to disable pop-up blockers as well.
Alternatively, you can disable all your browser extensions if disabling only the ad-blocker didn’t help.
Fix 3 – Use a different browser
Another solution is to switch to a different browser, maybe a browser that’s been specifically designed for gaming or streaming. So, if you’re using Google Chrome, try to stream on Opera GX or another browser that you may prefer.
Fix 4 – Link your account on mobile
If linking your account to Twitch is still not possible, do the linking of your account on mobile instead. After that, all you need to do on your computer is log in to Twitch.
If nothing worked, please reach out to Twitch for further assistance.
