• Notes hangs after "Get Pin" for Twitter

    By Thomas W Truitt 1 decade ago

    I am using Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3 and Lotus Notes 8.5.3 and am having issues.

    After clicking buttons like "Get Pin" for Twitter or "Get Sametime Community" for a Sametime account in the WildFire Preferences, the Lotus Notes client quits responding and you must Force Quit and relaunch Lotus Notes.  If you simply type in the name of the Sametime server community you can add the account and get it working.   It's almost like there is an unseen prompt box waiting for a click or input.  In the case of the "Get Sametime Community", you can't get focus on the "Sametime Community Choice" prompt box.

     

    For the Twitter "Get Pin" button you do get the following prompt and can click OK but then Notes quits responding.

    I have duplicated this problem on 3 different Mac Lion machines

    If you would like to do a screen share I'll be happy to show you via a Sametime Meeting

    Thanks!

      Hi Thomas,

      Thanks for bringing this to our attention,

      This seems to be an issues with the lastest version of Lion.
      The quickest work around I can suggest is to set up the Twitter account in WildFire on a Windows machine, then Copy-paste the Access Token & Access Secret into the same place on the Mac (ie Create a new account of type Twitter, paste the Twitter keys and save).

      Sorry for the inconvenience.  I shall add this to the list.

      Regards,

      Andrew

      • Roaming works as well!

        Great minds think alike.  

        That's basically what I did to get my Twitter account working, with the exception that I have "Roaming" enabled and the settings replicated back to the Mac.  

        I'll let you know if I stumble across any other issues.

        Thanks again!
