Question

I’m developing an iOS application, and to be able to retrieve data from Twitter, i need to set my Twitter account via Settings in the simulator to use Twitter framework. Even if i type my username and password correctly, it gives an error telling that username or password is invalid , but i’m 100 % sure that they are correct , because i’m using on the web. I’m able to access my Twitter account. The other weird issue that i’m facing this problem while using iphone 5.0 simulator. No problem with iphone 6.0 simulator. It drives me crazy, lookep up on the web, but nothing came up. Do you guys any idea why i’m having this problem ?

Edit: I’m using Xcode 4.5.2 and iOS 6.0 on Mountaion Lion

Answer 1

Do you use Xcode 4.6 Developer Preview 2? This is a known issue:

When using the iOS 6.1 SDK on OS X v10.8 (Mountain Lion), if you use
the iOS 5.0 or iOS 5.1 “Legacy SDK” in iOS Simulator, you will not be
able to sign in to Twitter via the Settings pane and Twitter.framework
will not work correctly. If you need to test Twitter features, you
will need to choose either the iOS 6.1 or iOS 6.0 Simulator run
destination or test with iOS 5.x on a device. These problems do not
occur when running Simulator on OS X v10.7 (Lion).
