Is it just me?
If others are not reporting problems, try these steps first.
- Check when your usage limit resets
Pro and Max plans have a five-hour session limit and a weekly limit. The error shows when it resets; wait until then or turn on usage credits in Usage settings.
- Start a new chat if the message is too long
A length limit error means one message is too big for the chat. Attach fewer or smaller files, split the content, or start a new conversation.
- Turn off your VPN and browser extensions
If you see 'There was an error logging you in', turn off any VPN, disable browser extensions and clear your browser cache and cookies, then try again.
- Wait a few minutes after a capacity message
'Due to unexpected capacity constraints' means Claude is busy, not down. It usually clears in a few minutes and does not show on the status page.

Why does Claude say I reached my 5-hour or weekly limit?
Paid plans have a five-hour session limit and a weekly limit, shared across the web, desktop app and Claude Code. The message tells you when it resets. If usage credits are on, your work continues and you see 'Now using credits' instead.
