Can't share to Twitter

ShamblesLoyal — Wed, 15 May 2013 10:34:59 GMT

I am unable to share any tracks or albums to Twitter. When I click share nothing appears on my twitter. Also when I copy an HTTP link and paste it in twitter all I get is the text of the album/track and no link. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Hey! Welcome to the community 🙂

Are you using the main twitter site on twitter.com ?

Inside Spotify, try disconnecting your Twitter from the little cog on the share dialogue and then reconnecting it again.

Oops! Novice mistake! haha I started a new twitter account a few days ago. I forgot you had to connect them through that little cog. Re-connected to my twitter and it works fine.

Thanks for your help.

The same thing is happening to me. I have disconnected and reconnected Twitter multiple times. It will not function.

Is it not posting to your twitter, or are you getting an error message when you try and connect?

Try going to https://twitter.com/settings/applications revoking Spotify's access to your account and then connecting in the client again.

I am having problems sharing to Twitter from my laptop & no one seems able to sort this out!

I had no such problems until a few days ago. I have my Share settings set to share to Twitter, and the connection to my Twitter account is still there. However, when I try to do this now, the Share settings show my connection to Twitter as 'temporarily unavailable".

This is now happening all the time, I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, plus signing in and out of each account and removing then reinstating permission to access Twitter but to no avail.

This is unbelievably annoying, as the facility was working perfectly until recently!

Incidentally, I have no problems sharing from my iPhone but only from my Mac laptop!

Same thing happened to me. Tried to revoke spotify's access to my twitter. But when i went to the twitter/settings/apps spotify wasnt listed. I assume my twitter isnt connected to spotify. But spotify wont let me reconnect my twitter. How to fix? Tried cleaning spotifys data and reinstalling too

If spotify isnt listed in the apps you can revoke then the problem is spotify isnt authorized to access your twitter accnt. So what you need to do here is to connect your twitter account again in spotify. If the "connect twitter(log in box)" isnt appearing in your phone when you click the twitter button then try using the desktop version(youd have to do this in a computer/laptop) when you try and share a track there and it asks to authorize your twitter then youre good from there. Just login your twitter accnt then try sharing a track using your phone. If it did so then everythings fixed.

But there's no Spotify on apps notifications section on twitter. Meaning, i can't revoke the access.
