See Twin Attack in the FAQ.

Precedence isn't an issue with these two particular rules. Neither affects the other, and there is nothing saying they can't or don't work together, so they do.

You get twin anytime you make an attack. On an AOO you make an attack. So you can use twin.

Read Double, Triple, LS Assault, etc. You still only get one AoO.

But Twin triggers with every attack. Even an AoO.

Twin attack is (currently) the exception that proves the rule. Double, Triple, and Quad attack normally give extra attacks, but not on an attack of Opportunity. Twin attack works still though.

The rulebook clearly states that "Even characters with special abilities that allow them to make additional attacks can make only one attack of opportunity".  So no Twin attack on AOO.

That is incorrect. Twin Attack isn't actually an Attack of Opportunity, just triggered by it. A figure with Quick Reactions and Twin would only get the +6 Atk on the first attack, not the Twin Attack.

As stated, this is covered in the FAQ.
