Twitter Widget on Elm

ladams888 — Sun, 27 Mar 2011 08:53:57 GMT

My Twitter widget on my Elm stopped updating this morning. So I logged out and tried to log in again - but when I tried to login it said "Incorrect user name or password" - so I can no longer get in to Twitter at all. I even signed up for a new Twitter account, and even though it has just been created when I try tolog in from my Elm I get the same message. Anyone else getting the same problem?

Does this happen if you go to Twitter using your phone's browser?

Yes - that was what was really strange as I could access twitter.com with nbo problem. However I have now resolved the problem. It was caused by the clocks going forward last night - and Twitter apps on mobiles have problems if the time is out of sync. See:

I have now got it all up and running again

I'm having the same issue on my Elm. I have recently updated the software (as advised by SE) and I can now, no longer log into Twitter. I can log into Facebook fine. I know that the username and password I am using are correct and I have ensured that my phone is set up on the correct timezone, yet I still cant log in. I get the "username or password incorrect" message. I can log onto Twitter using the internet no problem.

I cant access the link you put up at the moment. Is the general advice to make sure the timezone is correct?

I emailed SE about a problem with the Twitter App (certain things not displaying properly) and they advised that I should update my software. I've now updated and I cant even log in! I'm in a worse position than I was when I started!

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks,

Josh
