I am on the crystal ball project, and originally I could not get the emulator to run it kept saying error. I spent an entire day on this and I could not find it. So I decided to change the emulator to geny motion, but I figure I messed something up along the way. I then deleted the crystal ball project, and created a new one figuring it was a bug. Now I typed the same code as before and I'm seeing the same errors. I don't know if the problem is eclipse, and I just made it to the animation part of the crystal ball project too. I have typed the code as given from the video multiple times and I'm seeing the same errors. I just want to get this problem resolved in the quickest way possible, so I can continue to learn android.

16,073 PointsOK so after I deleted the crystal ball project thinking it was a bug, I restarted eclipse. I created the crystal ball project again, and I saw these errors even though it was a new project. The errors are what follows, 1. errors in the src and the package com.example.crystalball in both the crystal ball java and MainActivity.java. In each, it keeps underlining the lines and says the method is undefined. 2. more errors follow in res in the values area and says no given resource found in the given name.

16,073 Pointsoh I see, I deleted that cause I thought it was interfering with the emulator.
