1 - Create an application on Twitter web site https://dev.twitter.com/apps you will be given a "consumer key" and a "consumer secret".

2 - Add the STTwitter library into your project https://github.com/nst/STTwitter

3 - The following code will login and print the "access token" and "access token secret" as you requested:

STTwitterAPI *twitter = 
    [STTwitterAPI twitterAPIWithOAuthConsumerName:@"MyApp"
                                      consumerKey:@"BJaKx0V7hdDafkFXK4P08g"
                                   consumerSecret:@"DRSZf2Bc9Qgl0HDE7gGjzXYuQPkwk9gsAYgENFnWJs"
                                         username:@"nst021"
                                         password:@"xxxxxxxx"];

[twitter verifyCredentialsWithSuccessBlock:^(NSString *username) {

    NSLog(@"-- access granted for %@", username);
    NSLog(@"-- oauthAccessToken %@", twitter.oauthAccessToken);
    NSLog(@"-- oauthAccessTokenSecret %@", twitter.oauthAccessTokenSecret);
} errorBlock:^(NSError *error) {
    NSLog(@"-- error %@", error);
}];

4 - You can then retrieve the timeline this way:

[twitter getHomeTimelineSinceID:nil count:@"20" successBlock:^(NSArray *statuses) {
    // ...
} errorBlock:^(NSError *error) {
    // ...
}];

For this you would need a twitter account.Sign in to https://dev.twitter.com/apps to create a new applications and thus you will have oauth_consumer_key, oauth_consumer_secret keys.

Your twitter keys should be similar to these

Consumer key :
