Emulator problems

So I downloaded Eclipse. I wanted to start the emulator, and it works, but I can't figure out how to turn on my would-be app. Has this happened to any of you guys? (Help would be greatly appreciated.) :(

You should be able to just hit the green 'play' arrow in the main row of icons at the top of eclipse. If an emulator is running it should automatically run the app in the emulator. (In the panel at the bottom, have a look for the 'console' tab, this brings up info about what's going on when you try to run your app). Bear in mind that the emulator tends to be very slow, so you may have to wait a while for anything to happen.
