What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Select "tweets"
2. Start downloading
3. Receive CSV file

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect to see all tweets. I only see about 1050. Any ideas why?

See the very first question on the tweetake FAQ page
(http://tweetake.com/troubleshooting/) :

I have thousands of contacts, but Tweetake only saves 1000 - how do I get the rest

Unfortunately at the moment there’s not a lot we can do about this. Twitter API only
allows us to save the last 1000 records in any of the categories. We’re working on
getting this lifted, but the only way to do that is if @ev and @biz think we’re
popular enough ;)

The best way to make sure you get the most records is to back up each category
(followers, following, tweets etc) separately. And then make a note to back up every
week / month / your choice of frequency.

We've just raised the limits - please retest and let us know.

Twitter have now whitelisted the app and we have raised our limits
accordingly. Because of the way Tweetake works we have to have some limits
but they are now much more generous.
