Finish button doesn't finish

I was trying to do my first test app and when I got to the last screen and clicked on the Finish button, nothing happened. Any ideas? I think I have everything installed. Thanks

@BernieM where is the "Finish Button" can you give us a few more details? Android or iOS? And like @LA says Device or Emulator?

@BernieM Sounds like you haven't downloaded your project and imported it into Eclipse. Like @LA says, have a look at the Android learning path here on Buzztouch or for full guide to Android have a look at https://www.buzztouch.com/files/howtos/buzztouch_For_Android-A_Users_Guide.pdf Particularly chapter 7 - "Compiling and Running Your App".

Hi @BernieM, You don't go to Blank Activity...if you are downloading a project from here then you do this: File-New-Project...click on Android then Android Project from existing code. LA

May I ask why you are trying to create a new blank activity? Just curious. What are you expecting to happen? LA

@Machete, You need to import the code into Eclipse and set the right api's if they aren't Google 2.2. See the above link and have a look at the process - chapter 7 - "Compiling and Running Your App". Then let us know how you went and we can help from there ...
