Hi guys, I'm probably being really silly but any idea someone could explain to me why my app doesn't want to run on my simulator? I can see the icon on it but when I click on it, it just says that the 'application has been forced to close unexpectedly. Please try again.' There don't seem to be any errors and I have used Google APIs 2.2 so I can't see what the problem is. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks :)

That happens to me from time to time. They're the worst kinds of problems, because there is no warning or errors in the code. But you're trying to make it do something it doesn't want to do. This could be very simple or very complex. The only thing I can say to try and narrow down the problem is to get accustomed to putting Debugger statements 'everywhere' and check your logcat to find out where the last statement came from. It will usually provide some kind of hint. In Android the BT_debugger statements look like: BT_debugger.showIt(activityName + ": Got this far #27"); Make sure they're all a little different so you'll know which one is which. Good Luck!

If you're working with Eclipse, check the logCat.. I found important error logs there. http://www.itcsolutions.eu/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/LogCat_View.jpg GOod luck.
