Hi Patrick,

You may find the answer here:
http://support.tweetdeck.com/entries/181425-how-do-i-install-air-tweetdeck-in-linux-ubuntu-variants.
If not, I suggest asking @desktopdeck to see if they can help.

 TweetDeck works great on Ubuntu, but I have yet to make it work on

 Please note that you will have to add your accounts to TweetDeck
 again.

 OK

 There is no submit button, per se, but clicking the OK button
 leads to second dialog box that says:

 Sorry, Adobe AIR has a problem running on this computer

 TweetDeck is having trouble storing your passwords securely.  Please
 check the article at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/492/cpsid_49267.html for

 OK

 Clicking OK will only redisplay this second message repeatedly.
 Clicking the close control button will close the dialog, but it is
 impossible to subsequently add a user account.  I plan to try to
 contact Adobe, but perhaps someone here may know the issue or can
 provide a solid reference for help.

 The question is what component needs to be installed to store
 passwords on Linux with Gnome?  Kwallet is not the ticket (KDE).  The
 gnome keyring service is running, but there appears to be a subsystem
 missing for the password storage for Gnome Desktop apps.

 Any ideas?

Hi,

 When the new permission is enforced we will return an HTTP 403 Forbidden 
 error with the response body:
 {errors:[{code:93,message:This application is not allowed to access or 
 delete your direct messages}]}
The format of the error message differs from the one described in the following

 Hey everyone,
 
 We wanted to say a big thank you to the developers who have been sending us 
 debug information, and details of steps to follow to reproduce device 
 specific issues. An especially big thank you to those of you who have shared 
 the changes you made to your applications on the mailing list.
 
 All of this information has helped us to improve the OAuth flow for you and 
 your users. But, we know that we're getting close to the DM enforcement date 
 and that some of these new features aren't available to you yet. 
 
 We understand this means you might not be able to fully test your updated 
 flow so we are going to extend the deadline until the end of June. 
 
 This makes the new enforcement date Thursday, June 30th, 2011.
 
 
 Below is a list of the features we are adding in response to your requests 
 and feedback:
 
 1. Adding the force_login parameter to the /oauth/authorize screen to ensure 
 the /authorize screen displays a login screen.
 
 2. Adding the screen_name parameter to the /oauth/authorize and 
 /oauth/authenticate requests. When provided with the force_login parameter we 
 will pre-fill the username box on the OAuth screen.
 
 3. Adding a Back to app button on the webpage which is loaded if a user 
 selects no, thanks. When selected the Back to app button will open the 
 provided oauth_callback URL with a 'denied' parameter. The value of the 
 denied parameter will be the request_token obtained from the /request_token 
 request.
 For example: http://example.com/callback/?denied=xyz123abc
 
 4. Design updates to the OAuth screens to improve compatibility across 
 devices.
 
 5. A lightweight OAuth screen flow for devices which are slow or incompatible 
 with the new screens.
 
 6. A new header on authenticated requests which tells you the access level of 
 the oauth_token you are using. The header is available now and is called 
 X-Access-Level. More information for this is available here:
 https://dev.twitter.com/pages/application-permission-model-faq
 
 
 Thanks for working with us to ensure users can make informed decisions about 
 the access an application has to their account.

[twitter-dev] Rate limit status keeps decreasing

2011-05-29 Thread Jeffski
My rate limit status keeps decreasing to 0 even though as far as I can
tell I am only making 24 requests per hour.

I have a simple PHP web page that calls this 24 times per hour using
CURL:
http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?count=1screen_name={user_name_here}

Responses are cached and logged so a) I shouldn't go over the limit
and b) I can track exactly when the calls are made and confirm my PHP
script is only making 24 requests per hour.

For some reason the rate limit status decreases to 0 after about half
an hour.

Any ideas what I can be doing wrong or if the rate limit can be
decreased by something else other than my script. My script is on a
web site with a dedicated IP address.

[twitter-dev] Some doubts about API

2011-05-29 Thread dnog
Hi,

I'm planning to build a tool to convocate events, like events on
Facebook, but Facebookless, just for twitter users.

There is any limitation (added to the 350req/h rate limit) sending
direct messages?

Is there any better way to notify users?

What is the lifetime of the tokens? Can I store it in a DB for example
(if infinite lifetime)?

Finally, if somebody make a SPAM event, blocking is enough or there is
any mechanism to notify Twitter the problem and block the user?

Thanks

[twitter-dev] Tweet Href attribute [location.href]

2011-05-29 Thread Saahir Foux
Hello,

I'm trying to dynamically swap the url I want my users to tweet. I
have a video player with a url of www.domain.com/video. My tweet
button is located on this page. My videos each have their own url
which I use to view them in the player. Using javascript, as each
video is played I add the url of the video into the anchor tag with
docGetById('myID').setAttribute('data-url','MyVideoUrl'). Instead
twitter uses the current url with location.href if the data-url isn't
genuinely coded onto the page. (See my code sample below)

What seems to be happening is twitter doesn't see my changes with
javascript. The actual url needs to be physically coded into the
anchor tag rather than dynamically added by javascript. I've tried
having my javascript execute before  after twitter.js, but no matter
what I do it only works when I have the url physically hardcoded into
the anchor tag. I've also tried writing the twitter anchor tag onto
the page, before widget.js with the desired url coded in. No luck.

Sample Code:

a id=myId href=http://twitter.com/share; data-text=
style=height:35 data-count=horizontal data-related=myRelated
class=twitter-share-buttonTweet/a  ---Data-url to be added with
javascript

Problem:

If the url to be liked isn't coded into the html of the anchor tag
twitter uses the current browser location with location.href, rather
then my javascript which is swapping the url to be liked in the anchor
tag for the current video being played. (My Page will not refresh)

Questions:

While remaining on a single page, how can I swap the url to be
tweeted?
(I may need to make changes to twitter.js and host it on my server):
Is there an uncompressed, readable version of widget.js? Can I be
provided a link to it?
Is there any long-term negatives to hosting widget.js on my server
rather than have the.src point to platform.twitter.com?

[twitter-dev] Re: Twitter Search Widget on iPad

2011-05-29 Thread ColinSJones
Not much help to you but I've noticed the same thing on IPad2, IPad1
and IPhone/IPod etc.

Safari on a PC works fine, the same as other browsers, but on mobile
devices it doesn't seem to show scrollbars.

FYI there is a discussion about this problem Scrollbar missing on
Safari Mobile which you can follow but there is no solution.

One thing which they suggest which does work for me (IPad2) is to use
the 2 finger resize gesture, within the list, which does allow you to
scroll but it's not easy to find the sweet spot that scrolls the list
as opposed to resizing.

[twitter-dev] list/statuses

2011-05-29 Thread ogierepier
Now I have a public list that includes private accounts. I'm
retrieving the result by calling statuses.json. The list is followed
by a few people. I have a gadget on my site which retrieves the latest
statuses. The private tweets are left out, which is fine by me, but
they're taking the place of the public tweets. Which means if for
example the 20 latest tweets on the first page of the results contain
19 private tweets you get only one tweet back. I do not want to remove
the private accounts from the list because the people following the
list can see this private tweets on twitter.com. How can I exclude the
private tweets from the query so that my results of the latest 20
tweets contain 20 public statuses?

Re: [twitter-dev] problem in Posting a tweet using OAuth from IOS app

2011-05-29 Thread Tom van der Woerdt
I assume that your URL encoding is wrong in the OAuth code. Make sure 
that you use %20 for a space and not +. The standard NSString URLencode 
function won't really work.


Code that has always worked for me to URLencode (got it from the web 
somewhere, sorry for not mentioning the original author) :

+(NSString*)urlEncode:(NSString*)str {
return [(NSString *)CFURLCreateStringByAddingPercentEscapes(
NULL,

(CFStringRef)str,

NULL,

(CFStringRef)@!*'();:@=+$,/?%#[],

kCFStringEncodingUTF8 ) autorelease];


}

Re: [twitter-dev] list/statuses

You can't. The 20 is the number of tweets received from Twitter's 
database. It will then simply not send the ones which come from private 
users, deleted ones (?), retweets, etc. If you want 20, ask for 50 and 
limit it yourself.

[twitter-dev] Limit on sending DMs to opt-in users

2011-05-29 Thread Adam Green
I have a client who needs the following scenario:
- Many users, potentially thousands or tens of thousands, will sign up
to receive a daily DM from the client's site. With a limit of 250 DMs
per day, the client wants to use each user's account to send a DM to
that user.

- These users will give the app permission to send DMs to their
account through OAuth.

- The app will use each user's OAuth credentials to send 1 DM to that
user each day.

So, John signs up and allows DMs with OAuth. John's OAuth tokens are
used to have John's account send a DM to John.

Question 1: Is it technically possible to send a DM to @john using the
OAuth tokens for @john.

Question 2: Is this model limited to 250 DMs per day? If the answer to
question 1 is yes, it seems that this is really just 1 DM per account
per day. Is this true, or is the app's account used to total up the
DMs for the limit.

Answer to expected comments: yes, I know the client could use email.
They want to use DMs. They want this to be a Twitter system and feel
that DMs let them stay within Twitter.

Re: [twitter-dev] Some doubts about API

2011-05-29 Thread Daniel Doña Álvarez
Thanks,

Why no more than 10 per hour? I think it's not hourly limited, because I
tested it sending up to 250 messages to a friend in 10 minutes and all was
received.

In the other hand, 8/hour is a good rate, about 190 DM (invitations for the
event) is enough for almost everybody.

What do you think?

 250 per day per sending account, spread over the day. Try not to send more
 than 10 per hour, although I think Twitter divides it in blocks of 4 hours.
 Better way? I'd say that you shouldn't use Twitter for this. :-)

 Lifetime of tokens: infinite until revoked.

 Also, yes you can report an user as spam, but you shouldn't report a
 Twitter user for things they do on your site.

 Hi,

 I'm planning to build a tool to convocate events, like events on
 Facebook, but Facebookless, just for twitter users.

 There is any limitation (added to the 350req/h rate limit) sending
 direct messages?

 Is there any better way to notify users?

 What is the lifetime of the tokens? Can I store it in a DB for example
 (if infinite lifetime)?

 Finally, if somebody make a SPAM event, blocking is enough or there is
 any mechanism to notify Twitter the problem and block the user?

 Thanks
