Hi Complete novice here, hoping to get some help on creating my first app....
Problem: When I go to block editor and hit "connect to device" nothing shows up. What I've tried so far: 1) Gone to the "Check Driver Installation" troubleshooting page - http://www.appinventorbeta.com/learn/setup/windows-drivers.html ■Open a Command Prompt window and navigate to the directory where the software was installed. For example, if you installed the Setup software as an administrator, and this is a 32-bit system, the directory should be C:\Program Files\AppInventor\commands-for- Appinventor, or Program Files (x86) for a 64-bit system. DONE - IT IS LOCATED IN THE Program Files (x86) folder ■Type the "dir" command and check that one of the files listed is adb.exe. If it's not, then you are in the wrong directory or the software didn't install. I DON'T understand how to type the "dir" command - do I type in the search? If so, nothing shows up. In the Program File (x86) folder I see the following: adb, adbdevices, and adbrestart - does this mean that it did not correctly install? If so I will try to reinstall? ■Plug your phone into one of your computer's USB slots, making sure that the phone shows USB connected and USB debugging connected. THIS LOOKS GOOD ■Type the command "adb devices". You should see the messages "daemon not running" followed by "daemon stated successfully", followed by "list of devices attached". If there is a device in the list, something like HT99TP800054, then the phone is connected and the computer and the phone can communicate and the drivers should be OK. WHERE exactly do I type the command? ■On the other hand, if the list of devices is blank, you'll have to get additional drivers, or install the existing drivers manually. Thanks in advance for the help (Sorry for the crazy caps type, trying to make it loud and clear :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
