Just a couple of minutes ago, I used my personalised homepage without any problems. Now, poof! it's gone. Tried logging out and signing in again, hopping to classic and personalized homepage, checked cookies and - nothing. All my collected links, sticky notes, tabs, etc - gone. All the other things seem to work.
Must say, I'm pretty sad and disappointed. Can the lost setting be restored anyhow? On my current work computer, I'm using Windows NT, if that helps diagnose the situation.

Lost mine too. If this is not restored, I am switching to netvibes.com; they have a module to backup your settings. I am not spending time again to update my personalised search page.

Same here. Seems not to be a client side issue: firefox on linux here. Still works for a colleague of mine though (her account, her home page). The only change I made today was the following: I've had the "interesting items for you" (or something like that) gadget on my personalized home for a while, and this morning it allowed me to "add a .....(something or other) tab by clicking here". I did, and got the extra tab. Then switched back to my normal tab. Didn't touch the page for a couple hours then, occasionally reloading it though. After lunch it was gone, replaced by a single tab containing three gadgets: gmail, top stories, quotes of the day.

Mine has disappeared as well and replaced by items I used to have, but it's not even an old version (everything is in a single tab). Please please please, they must be able to fix this!
one of the other threads said that a google guide said a quick fix for firefox was to press shift while reloading the page via the firefox refresh button. Seen in thread named ' My Personalised Google Screen is up the creek '
It didnt work for me, but others have said it worked for them.

Add me to the list...I never realized how dependant upon this I had become...if they don't come back then i'm going to have to find something else that will let me backup my settings. It will take HOURS to restore my tabs and feeds and gadgets and stuff....

Mine gone too.... I'm now totally lost. I can't even remember where half of the gadgets came from!
I have noticed a new option when adding tabs to your homepage. Do you think this new option is the cause of the problem. I.e. They added an update to the tabs feature and trashed everyones data in the process?
Come on Google please make a statement about this.
