I have created the app and downloaded the source. I have installed Eclipse and thew SDKs required. I follow the instructions to do File/Import/General/Existing Projects into Workspace/browse to root of the folder where I unzipped the sourse. It then say "No projects are found to import. I am definitely pointing it to the correct folder and when I look in that folder there is a .classpath, but no .project file which I asume is why it is saying there is no project there. Is there a step I have missed out? Thanks chris Title Comments Hi New to Buzztouch and just trying to create a very,very simple app and follow it through the compilation in Eclipse.

I would delete that one and download again to a new folder, with nothing in it but that unzipped file, and click on that folder only and it should pick it up.
