Help - twitter widget in my ipad magazine

Hi,
How to I get my twitter widget code to work in an InDesign magazine (for ipad)?
I know you place website address in 'Overlay Creator' - 'Web Content' but the code from Twitter is not a website address - it's codding.
Sorry I'm not very webby!
Thanks

You need to copy/paste the code from that page into a valid HTML file. The code on its own won’t work.
Create a new blank HTML file in Dreamweaver and copy/paste the code between the opening and closing body tags.
IMPORTANT: Save the HTML file in its own folder.
Create your frame in the InDesign file, open the web content overlay pane and browse to that file. Choose autorun and allow user interaction.

Help! Cannot get Twitter Widget to Work!

Hello,
I am running Adobe Captivate 6 on a Mac. i have MAMP installed and followed the Twitter Widget installation guide here:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/captivate/cp/using/WSedb8e841cbc0b796-1c6e 5ece129f9bd28c5-8000.html
When I preview my project in captivate or in web browser the widget does not show, neither does it when I publish the project to my local "test" moodle.
The widget "icon" appears in the edit window.
I think utilizing this tool in an elearning environment is an awesome concept and have been wracking my brain to figure it out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Josh

Support for New Twitter Widget in Web Content Overlays

I have been looking for several days now for a solution that will allow me to present a twitter feed within a DPS Article that does not require utilizing the inapp browser. All of the solutions I have come across do not work. I know Twitter has changed thier API's. Is Adobe planning on doing somehting about this or are we letting the ability for twitter feeds to be embeded into a web overlay die?
Linking to the URL proves to be problemactic, the Web Overlay never resolves on the iPad and I am only presented with a perpetual loading pin wheel. Using iFrames does not work either, and more often than not upon a preview ID freezes and I have to Force Quit to get out of the frozen program. Pasteing the iFrame code directly on the layout appears to alomost work however that is only on the desktop and upon pasting the code onto the layout I presented with a dialoge saying there is some JS error. On the iPad I am only presented with an empty frame. I have even tried a sugestion to take the widget code and use the "Object > Insert HTML" option with no avail. I have many clients that are very upset that this functionalioty has gone away or has become impossible to impliment.
HELP!

I have already come across these "solutions".
I am on v27 and have been since its release.
I have tried method number one. It partially works however it is buggy. When the overlay initially loads, it flashes the Twitter URL before showing the feed in the overlay frame on the article. Additionally, it sometimes flashes back and forth from the Twitter Feed's URL and displaying the feed itself. This, for me is not a wholly valid solution but it will do for now since the only thing that remotely works. I suspect the URL flash has alot to do with the network connectivity of the device one is viewing the feed on. However, to flash that URL before the feed loads makes the overlay appear buggy.
And the second method most definitely crashes ID ever single time I attempt to preview the overlay either on desktop or iPad. And I have tried this method on several different machines, thinking it was my copy of ID. It still crashes upon preview, so mehtod two is not a valid solution at all, unless there is something special that needs to be in the HTML file (besides the twitter widget) for it to not crash ID, that I am unaware of.
Thank you for your assistance.

Twitter widget in Captivate 7 not working

I am using Captivate 7 to add the twitter widget to a course. I can publish it with no problem, however, it won't allow me to generate a pin. . When I click on the button "Generate PIN" it comes back with a message: "To disable twitter functionality, close window. To enable it, click Generate Pin". When I click it again nothing happens. When I click the red X to close the window, the course continues without the twitter widget.
I am not using preview. All files are published to a server.
I am using Windows
I tried Chrome and IE11
This is the link to the test course http://angelteachers.com/AngWIP/BookwormTwitter/BookwormTwitter.htm
Thanks for any help, Angela

Hi Angela, Sreekanth,
Twitter widget issue has been resolved.

Hi there
WOW! I downloaded and looked at your file. After opening, I simply attempted to preview. It seemed to lock up my PC for a really long time as it processed the file. I left it alone and after the preview finally opened, I saw what you did. So I canceled. Then began to inspect the project.
Overall size is 720x540. Respectable.
79 slides. Within limits.
Hmmm, no objects on slides 1-11?
Question slides for 12, 13, 14
Then I look at slide 1 and about fall over! The timeline shows that this slide is timed for 3,600 seconds! That's an hour!
I look further and see that ALL slides are timed for 3,600 seconds!
I have no clue how that happened, but you probably simply need to adjust the timing to something far more reasonable on each slide. Personally, I've never had a need to time a slide for longer than maybe, MAYBE ten seconds.
Hopefully this helps... Rick

Twitter widgets?

Everytime I put in the html code for a Twitter widget in the HTML snippet, nothing shows up. Someone please help me out with this–it is important that my website on iWeb has a twitter widget.

It shows on my iWeb page on my own server :
http://home.wyodor.net/demoos/twitter/
And this is the widget :
http://home.wyodor.net/demoos/twitter/twitter_files/widget1_markup.html
If that fails with you, then save the widget markup file at a different location, rename the file, and then display the page in a HTML snippet.
See this page how to do that :
http://www.wyodor.net/blog/archives/2011/08/entry_321.html
If it still fails, then at least iWeb is not involved.

Twitter Widget Dreamweaver

Hi all, thanks in advance for any help.
I have a website: http://www.isaacindiana.com/
Which has a twitter widget (embedded timeline) on the right hand side. This seems to work for some people who visit, but for many the widget does not show. Does anybody know why this is?
Many thanks,
Tom Sturges

Could be caused by code errors in your HTML.

HT4098 I have paid for an iPad magazine subscription, but I can not see all the pages of the magazine. All I am getting is the free preview. The magazine company said to contact Itunes, where I don't see a solution.

Help - I have a new iPad 2 which I am trying to set up?

Help - I have a new iPad 2 which I am trying to set up. Connected fine to my existing iTunes account and upgraded to latest software update. Then it started saying that I had to restore it, so I tried, but it just keeps going through the motions of restoring and then telling me again that it needs to restore. What am I doing wrong?

Upgrading the iOS "over-the-air" was introduced with iOS 5. If you are currently running an iOS version < 5.0 you can only update through iTunes. Connect your iPad to your PC or Mac. Open iTunes and click on "Check for updates"

How do I get twitter installed on my iPad when it does not have iOS 5.0?

How do I get twitter installed on my iPad when it does not have iOS 5.0? How can I upgrade my iPad?

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

Firefox will not display twitter widget on my webpage

twitter widget won't work with firefox
== URL of affected sites ==
http://www.h2home.biz

> But I really don't want to allow all sites to use
> their own fonts, just, in this case, Twitter.
Exactly. It's not a very good solution to be forced to give up control/accessibility on every Web site, to fix a problem with just a few popular ones like Twitter.
It seems like a pathetic accessibility fail on the part of Yahoo, Twitter, etc., but since the practice is likely to persist and spread, please, Firefox:
=> allow site-specific configuration of "allow pages to choose their fonts."

Twitter Widget Malfunction

I built a site with DW 5.5 about a year ago and in it was a Twitter Widget I uploaded via Abode Widget Exchange. For the past year or so, it has worked just fine. Last week, with no rhyme or reason, it stopped working. I have deleted it and re-installed it, no luck. I double check the configuration, everything is correct, does anyone have any idea's or suggestions? Has anyone else had this kind of trouble before?
Mike

Your "Version 1.2" is probably nothing to do with the Twitter API version, which is either v1 or v1.1.
When you download a new code make sure it says it's using the API 1.1, otherwise it will not work.
You can always use Twitter's official widget. https://dev.twitter.com/docs/embedded-timelines
