The tutorials will be updated when I've time. Right now CB Activity rewrite and CB GroupJive upgrades are significantly more important. Once those are done I can reevaluate the tutorials and update them as needed.
I don't know why Twitter is giving you problems. It's working perfectly fine in my tests. You should be sent to twitter where you login and authorize the application. It then should send you back to your site with a page informing you registration is incomplete and ask you for an email address. Once done you'd click sign up and it'd register you then log you in.
Edit your Twitter application and under Settings ensure "Website" and "Callback URL" are both just your sites domain ending in slash. Example as follows.
Code:
http://localhost.com/dev/
Now make sure "Allow this application to be used to Sign in with Twitter" is checked. Please see the following screenshot of my configuration.
