Cannot do Facebook/Twitter integration through Mail, Contacts

I cannot do facebook or twitter integration using the system preferences panel "Mail, Contacts & Calendars". After entering the correct User Name and Password, it takes a minute or so and then IA_ERROR_BAD_CREDS shows up under the passwords box. I know that both the username and pw are correct. This happens for both twitter and facebook.
Console has this to say:
9/15/13 10:00:50.952 AM accountsd[379]: /SourceCache/AccountsAgent/Accounts-211.2/ACDAccountStore.m - -[ACDAccountStore verifyCredentialsForAccount:saveWhenAuthorized:withHandler:] - 1245 - 0x0 - System Preferences (com.apple.systempreferences) is trying to verify account credentials for account: (my email / login ID)
9/15/13 10:01:10.953 AM System Preferences[539]: *** Warning: saveAccount timed out for (my email / login ID)

Other ways of integrating also fail. For example, Safari will sometime offer a dropdown window:
"Would you like to allow other OS X applications to use this Twitter Account?
You can allow or disallow the use of this account later in your System Preferences."
When I press "Allow", this will hang indefinitely with a spinnning icon next to "Setting up Account". The only way out is to close the Safari window from the File menu.

Facebook not included under Mail, Contacts & Calendars

I just installed Mountain Lion yesterday but do not see Facebook as an option under Mail, Contacts & Calendars? How can I add this?
The current list only includes...
iCloud
Microsoft Exchange
Gmail
Yahoo
AOL
Twitter
Vimeo
Flickr
Add Other Account
But I do not see how to add Facebook.

search the communities before you post - it will help everyone else.
NO facebook integration until fall!

Cannot Connect to Google Calendar in Mail, Contacts & Calendars preferences

I recently obtained a new Mac and am playing with Mountain Lion for the first time. I'm trying to add my Google Apps (custom domain, not @gmail.com) account to the Mail, Contacts & Calendars control panel. I was able to add Mail, Messages, and Notes without any issues, but it's refusing to connect to Calendars & Reminders. When I attempting connecting, it gives me an error...
A secure connection couldn't be established.
Click “Continue” to continue creating the account. You can edit the account later in Calendar preferences if necessary.
So I click "Continue" to... well, continue. Eventually, I've given this error:
There was a problem setting up the account.
Calendar couldn't discover the account settings for the CalDAV server “google.com”.
Just out of curiousity, I went into the Calendar app to directly add my Google account. Doing so also gives me an error:
Server with Secure Communication Unavailable
Your calendar account isn't on a server that can receive your calendar securely.
If a server isn't secure, others may be able to view your calendar information. To continue searching for your account on servers that may not be secure, and then set up the account if it's found, click Continue.
So I go ahead and click Continue. After waiting some more, I finally get the error...
No CalDAV servers were found for "google.com".
This message appears on the Account Settings sheet where you can add a CalDAV account. If I manually type in the Server Address here (https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/[email protected]/user//www.google.com/calendar/dav/[email protected]/user), Calendar claims it still cannot connect to a secure connection. This time, clicking Continue does add the account. (I'm assuming through a non-secure conncetion.) If I try to edit the Account Settings, it takes me to the Mail, Contacts, and Calendars control panel where Calendars & Reminders for my Google account is now selected.
I can only assume this is a weird bug with Mountain Lion, but needless to say, this is far from the "it just works" mentality I've been use to.
This was not an issue with iCal on Snow Leopard, which is what I'm coming from.

I was having similar issues and thought I would put down what solved my problem.
In "Mail, Contacts & Calendars" I didn't choose "Gmail" I used "Add Oter Account…" as previously mentiond.
Then I chose "Add a CalDav account"
Under User Name: I entered my entire gmail address
Under Password: I entered a new "Application Password" key as generated by Googles two step verification process.
Under Server Address: I tried to use just "google.com" and "www.google.com" neither of these worked - only errors. So I used the address as listed on Google Calender when clicking on settings for my main calendar. There is a link that will give you your calendars private address. I shortened it to:
www.google.com/calendar/ical/your_gmail_address_goes_here
Then it worked immediately!

Problem with Facebook & Twitter integration in OS X Mountain Lion

I recently downloaded OS X Mountain Lion from App Store, everything went okay until the next few days I noticed that Facebook and Twitter integration doesn't seems to work anymore. Whenever I clicked on 'Click to tweet or post', nothing happened. Help me..Thanks.

Same issue on my machine, OSX 10.8.2, mid-2010 MBP 13-inch
Nothing happens when clicking on "Click to Tweet" & "Click to Post" on the Notification area.
Have done the "Remove all website data" and "Reset Safari" procedure, but to no avail.
Sharing button on Safari works. It's only the buttons on the Notification Area that do not work.

I'm trying to off my email but when i go through mail,contacts,calendar it send me automatically to main screen. Any help pls??

I tried to restart so many times but still not working, now my email is open and everybody can check it. Pls help

I'm not at all sure about this - if it has any bearing is what I mean - do you have restrictions turned on?
Settings>General>Restrictions>On.... if you do have it turned on, that can prevent anyone from making changes to email accounts. But the way you describe what is happening - it sounds like the Mail, Contacts, Calendars Setting is crashing for some reason. "Send me automatically to the main screen" sounds like a crash - that is what apps do when they crash or quit unexpectedly.
I don't use restrictions and I've never seen them "in action" so to speak. I just assumed that if you had restrictions enabled, the setting is greyed out and "unselectable" if you will.
The only other things I can think of that you can try are to reset the iPad and then restore it if that fails.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
If the setting went bad, I know of nothing else to try other than to restore.

Iphone 3G - cannot access the bottom of the mail,Contact etc. Settings pane

When I go to the pane I can set all my mail accounts etc but if I try to scroll down to the bottom of that page where I can set the sorting order of the contacts the iphone freezes and takes me back to the home screen.
I have done a total 2 hour reset of the phone 2 hours ago and restored the software fresh without using a backup...
Any ideas ?

are you signed in to those stores? do you have them restricted in settings, restrictions?

I cannot access Facebook after going through all the recommended ways to fix the problem. Help me.

I went through all the reccomended ways to try and allow Firefox to access the cite. however after i do that ill try and access the web citie and everytime i get an error page. It says connection was reset. So i went back to Firefox support and did the recommended way to fix it again and still it did not fix my problem. How to i fix this issure?

I dont understand the answer
'''''""The problem can be solved by opening FF and choosing Tools...Add On's...select the SEARCH addon and choose UNINSTALL...restart FF browser when asked, then reload Mobsters. This worked for me. The suggestion on the 404 that says to remove Search via Add/Remove Programs is completely BS, as Search doesnt show there. ""'''''

IPhone Mail, Contacts, Calendars iCloud and Macbook iTunes settings what a mess!

So I have been having some trouble with my iCloud settings and my iPhone lately and tried some changes and have discovered many more issues that make no sense to me. I have an iPhone and a Macbook Pro. Before I set the settings for each device separately so if I made changes to my email passwords I would have to manually update this info on both devices. Later I noticed on iTunes there was an option to sync the settings, so I selected this option and completed the sync. I have found that this does not work at all. When I make a change to either device it does not update on the other. For some reason the iPhone keeps losing passwords for random accounts for no reason, the info is on the desktop and works fine on mac mail and even when entered on the phone it will ask for it again a week later.
So I decided to wipe all mail accounts from the iPhone and start fresh and transfer the settings from the Macbook to the phone. Well this created a new problem. I have two Apple ID's. When I go to turn on all of the on/off settings for this account through mail,contacts and calendars settings, the switch will work but they will not show the blue on icon...no problem at least the information is on the phone. On my second Apple ID I experience the same problem but now the option to sync reminders has disappeared. I performed another sync and still the iPhone is missing passwords for random email accounts, ones that worked before do not work now and ones that did not work work, constantly changing.
In an attempt to see if some other settings needed to be changed I opened the iCloud settings on the iPhone and found that nothing existed, which is strange because under Mail, Contacts and Calendars that account is listed. Now when I input my primary iCloud info into the iCloud settings on the iPhone it asks me to deactivate the settings from the came iCloud account listed under Mail Contacts and Calendars???? They are the same account and should be sharing the same settings! So now when I go into Mail Contacts and Calendars this Apple id is listed twice and naturally neither of the settings transfer to the Macbook!
All I wanted to do was to make changes to a password for an email account on one device and have that information updated on the other...sync as they say. Now I have found out that the iCloud accounts listed under Mail Contacts and Calendars are not associated with one another...it's all a mess to me!
I am reverting back to manually entering account information for emails and iCloud accounts on both devices because the sync option seems to be faulty to me!
Oh yes I am using a Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and an iPhone 4S 64GB with iOS 6.0.1

Sorry, How to create Apple ID with @iclound.com.

Why can't I see my xtra mail contacts on my ipad mail

I have the latest ipad but cannot get my yahoo. Xtra mail contacts on my ipad mail. I have been into iTunes but cannot find any tab that says export yahoo contacts on iTunes. Thanks

I"m sorry I didn't read that closely enough. I'm afraid all I can offer is that it's probably a glitch on Apple's end, which means there's not much folks can do beyond force quitting the app to make it reload (double tap the home button, when you see the preview for the app, flick it up and off the screen, then single tap on the home button to exit that mode)

Facebook and Twitter integration not working

I'm have trouble using Facebook and Twitter integration in Mountain Lion. When I click 'Click to Tweet', or 'Click to Post', nothing happens; I don't get the notecard looking thig, and it's like I never clicked the button. Same thing with sharing from an app, except for Twitter. I receive notifications from both just fine, but I'm unable to post. I can tweet something from the sharing menu (link to a webpage with Safari, for example), but I cannot send a tweet using the 'Click to Tweet' button in Notification Center. Also, I cannot post to Facebook by neither sharing nor the 'Click to Post' button. So far I have tried sharing with Safari, Finder, and Preview, all with the same results. (Facebook sharing with iPhoto does work, but I don't believe that is integrated with OS X.)
I have also tried the following, with no luck:
Checked my settings on the Facebook and Twitter sites.
Removed my acounts and re-added them.
Obviously, my internet connection is working.
Added my Facebook account to the 'Guest User' account, and another administrator account.
Had a friend add his Facebook account to his own (limited) account on my computer--he could not post to Facebook either.
I believe the last two things I tried indicate that this is a system-wide problem. A couple more things to note: 1) there is no kind of error message; it just sits there, like nothing happend, no 'spinning wheel' or anything. 2) It DID work before. Twitter worked when I first upgraded to Mountain Lion, and Facebook worked when I installed the 10.8.2 update. I don't use either often enough to know when exactly they stopped.
Here is a video illistrating my problem.
It's been driving myself crazy with this over the past few days, and can't seem to find an answer anywhere. I also seem to be the only one with this problem.

First, I would eject whatever it is that you downloaded. Go to Finder and eject it that way or depending how you have your system set up, do the two finger tap and Eject it. Download the link above. Once it downloads, double click it to install it. It should work. If it doesn't you need to use your Disk Utility to check for errors. Click your Finder again and then Applications. Scroll down to Utilities and then Disk Utility. Click on your hard drive and you will get a menu of items on the right side. Towards the bottom, you will see a button to Verify Disk Permissions. Click that and let it run. It may take a few minutes to finish. Once it's finished there may be a list of things wrong with your system. Click the Repair Permissions and let the computer do it's thing. Use Disk Utility at least once a month to make sure everything is in order on your system. If this doesn't fix it, I don't have any other suggestions. I'd hate to say do a fresh install but that might be the next step if this doesn't work.
Something else to consider is that is if you use Time Machine and the system did work at one point, you could go back to the last known good point and reinstall that back-up. You would lose anything you have saved since that point (obviously). If you take steps to back up your information, that should not be an issue. (For me), Time Machine works as advertised. If you are not backing system up regularly, shame on you. You need to start ASAP backing up. It's an easy process and it's times like you are having now, that make the small preventive maintenance, worth extra time and effort.
Good luck.

Facebook and twitter friends in my contacts?

Hi
For some reason I can see my facebook and twitter friends in my contacts list.
I don't want to see them there and i cannot find an option for this not to happen.
Help?
Thanks.

Hi From what I have been reading and researching. You can turn off the FB and Tw feature from coming in. One user reported that they turned it off and all was fine. Another said they turned it off and later it would come back. So I'm not sure if that has to do with OS ver. or locked or unlocked and or if it may be carrier related and the way the phone is setup?
Do a little research, try turning that FB and Tw feature off for contact being brought in, etc
Best, Enjoy
Ric

Hi,
the settings are gone, i guess. But even worse, I cannot get the iPad2 to play Full HD thru the Apple digital AV adaptor using apps that support (and advertise this), like AVPlayer HD. This definiteley used to work before one of the last iOS upgrades. (I am now at 5.1.1).

I want to delete my gmail on my iPad, yet my iPad won't allow me to access the option. I went on my iPad settings Mail, Contacts, Calendars, although i cannot tap on iCloud, Gmail, or Add Account... How do i fix this?

I want to delete/sign out my gmail on my Ipad, but my ipad won't allow me to delete it.
Example:
I tapped on Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars, although I cannot tap on iCloud, Gmail, and Add Account...
how do I fix this?

Sorry, you said Gmail. If that's the case, you can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists.
