Tweetdeck is probably the best client application to use Twitter and with its recent update, it is said that it has got better and more secured. Tweetdeck is an application running on the Adobe AIR environment and giving all the features of twitter in one screen and also allows you to schedule your tweets. The latest update of tweetdeck 0.36.1 is offering realtime streaming of tweets in the timeline but somehow it is irritating for some users. So, here I am giving you a way to disable it and use twitter silently.
I personally feel uneasy when I keep getting notifications throughout the day while I am using TweetDeck but now with the recent update, it’s even more faster and the notification keeps on coming every second or so and that is quite irritating at times when you are doing something important work or performing a task. This article is for those who feel the same way as I do. I hope you will like it.
- Go to Settings as shown in the image above.
- Select Twitter from the left tab navigation bar
- Uncheck the box named “Enable realtime Twitter streaming
- You’re Done!
Is there anything else with which I can help you regarding tweetdeck ? Did this tutorial help you and made tweetdeck work as you wanted it for you? Do drop in your views and comments
Keep visiting and thank you very much for your support. Cheers



I'm enjoying the realtime streaming and right now I don't think I should disable it. Anyway, thank you for pointing out the option.
When I sit for some serious task like writing a post, I close TweetDeck altogether. In other times, its good to get notification immediately. I've noticed some friends won some blogging contest because he/she was the first one to retweet. I was lagging behind because I was using twitter. This problem is no more now =/

I remember a bit back i could not win a contest because I was using tweetDeck and the prize was given to another fellow who retweeted the message first.

you are right! I agree with you and even I am now loving this feature after getting used to it but at first, I was very annoyed which lead me to write this article but still, people having large number of follows will want to disable it
I created list of people whose twitter feeds i want to follow & only use those feeds in tweetdeck that way it makes it easier to get the news i want rather then looking news of all my followers
Lovely thank you. You've just saved my sanity!! Can't concentrate whilst I've got stuff flashing on my screen.
Can I silently disable real-time streaming using script?
Does TweetDeck use registry keys to configure its settings?
