Have a Catalyst 4900m switch have 20 copper ports and one sc fiber port and three twin gig sfp. Have lc fiber sfp to go into the converters. the switch reads the sc connector but not the twin gig sfps. is this a software issue or hardware issue.

The twin gig modules are only compatible with the 8-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet expansion modules. See figure 4 on the product data sheet. This is also mentioned (though not as explicitly as I would like) in the Installation Guide.
You cannot use them in one of the eight built-in 10 Gig ports. I only found this out conclusively after opening a TAC case.
I made the mistake of assuming I could do that a couple of years back and it still bugs me. :)
