I use Skip Tunes to share my current music track title to Twitter, but after installing Yosemite it sends me to the Share Menu and Extensions pref pane. Twitter is not there. I realized I can no longer share ANYTHING to Twitter. No Safari pages, no iPhoto pics, nada. How can I get it back?
Macbook Pro, iMac, iBook, Mac OS X (10.5.6)
Go to System Preferences->Internet Accounts. Check the Twitter account and see if anything's odd. You could always just delete your Twitter account from there and re-create it, and it should resolve the issue.
In the Extensions preference pane, select Share Menu and check the box marked Twitter.
Thanks William and Linc, but Should have mentioned I already tried that. The only things that appear in my share menu are Tumblr and Wunderlist. I also looked at my Wife's iMac and realized I am missing TONS of other options as well! Airdrop, iPhoto, Mail...EVERYTHING is missing except for Tumblr and Wunderlist.
I'm hoping I don't have to reinstall Yosemite! Any other ideas anyone?
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.
Wow. I hadn't thought of this Linc. All the sharing options appear fine an work in Guest Mode. It all works on that side. Very strange.
Step 2?
Linc, I was going to do step two when I had a little downtime, then thought that the ONLY thing different since installing Yosemite was Quicksilver, which I had installed a day or so before Yosemite. I removed it from login items, restarted and now ALL my sharing options appear. I'm going to enable Quicksilver later and see what happens. Thanks for your suggestions! I'll post here when I find out what happens.
Twitter sharing extension is missing. Cannot share to Twitter.
