Ubuntu 12.04 64bit LTS

Release 12.04 (precise) 64-bit

Kernel Linux 3.2.0-27-generic

GNOME 3.4.2

When adding Onlie Accounts Twitter account, the section times out before I can enter any details.

  • Select "Add Account"
  • Select "Twitter"
  • When asked to enter my log on details, the page times out within a couple of seconds not giving me any time to add my details.

Any ideas? Is there a different way to add these details and bypass this GUI?

NB: Happens when adding any online account. I managed to add google account by typing very quickly, but cannot type fast enough for my Twitter account.

Thanks

This looks like a bug. – ObsessiveSSOℲ Aug 4 '12 at 18:32
Sounds like a bug alright. @pst007x, you might try copy/pasting your credentials as a workaround to do it very quickly. – Tom Brossman Aug 4 '12 at 19:44
