I'm trying to create an app with eclipse with the files from BT. In the instructions that came with the files it says to create a new Android application and check "Create project from existing source" - and point that to where I put the files. However I don't seem to get the opportunity to create from an existing source. Or anyway I can't find it. My menu also looks different that the one in the instructions. Can anyone help?

Have you checked out these guides in the How-To Section for Android? https://www.buzztouch.com/files/howtos/Compiling_Your_Android_Application_v1.0.pdf possibly you should check either one of these also https://www.buzztouch.com/files/howtos/Setting_Up_Your_Android_Development_Environment_For_MacOSX_v1.0.pdf https://www.buzztouch.com/files/howtos/Setting_Up_Your_Android_Development_Environment_v1.3.pdf Comments Hi!

If your eclipse environment is set up correctly you will find "create project from existing source" at: File > New > Project > Android > Android project from existing code Comments The path changed in eclipse in a recent update and isn't reflected in the guides yet.
