Twitter RSS Feed doesn't show up when clicking

I have a Twitter feed in my app. The feed updates exactly how it should however, when you click on one of the posts on the feed, it opens a Twitter page that says "Sorry, that page doesn't exist. Maybe try a search?" This happens with every post now and it's never happened before (the app has been on the App Store since the spring).

Could you give us an example of the feed and the URL I recently had to change a twitter feed due to some changes in their RSS api (at least that worked for me)

The Twitter feed url is: http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.rss?screen_name=rz_shakerite What url do you use for your Twitter RSS feed?

I use the RSS feed like the one above, I was using a different one but it broke recently :( I just fixed this up for a client so I know it does work. Are you choosing an RSS screen in your app? I'm self hosted using the BTM Rss feed but it should be the same. At least there is nothing wrong with the feed.

Yes, that part works, but if you then click on any of those posts it says, "Sorry, that page doesn't exist."

Yep, you're right! I didn't go that far. If you grab the link and put it in a browser it works but it's not working on the phone :( It also works if I include the mobile website in the link. Not sure what twitter have done or how to get around it. This is the xml of a single item and the link attribute looks fine: <item> <title>RZ_Shakerite: Reminder that the varsity senior football game is this Saturday vs. Garfield</title> <description>RZ_Shakerite: Reminder that the varsity senior football game is this Saturday vs. Garfield</description> <pubDate>Wed, 17 Oct 2012 14:43:00 +0000</pubDate> <guid>http://twitter.com/RZ_Shakerite/statuses/258578865037901824</guid> <link>http://twitter.com/RZ_Shakerite/statuses/258578865037901824</link> <twitter:source>&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/devices" rel="nofollow">txt&lt;/a></twitter:source> <twitter:place/> </item>
