Hi Terry, Regarding the crash on startup when deploying to android simulator: What version of Android is running on the simulator? I have experienced crashes *only* when deploying to android 2.3.3 simulator. Other android versions work as expected. If you experience the crash not only in 2.3.3 simulator, but also in *any* android version less or equal to 4.1.3, then you are probably affected by bug 16688: http://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=16688 which we cannot reproduce, but according to the bug report it affects *only* LiveCode 7.1.1 releases (works fine in 7.1.0).
Regarding the problem of not seeing your devices under the development>test target menu: What happens if you type in the OS X terminal : "adb devices" ? If you see an empty list, then the problem is that your devices are not recognized. I have experienced this problem a number of times. I would suggest using a different android cable. If this does not work, type in the terminal: "adb kill-server" and then "adb start-server" Hope this helps, Panos -- On Thu, Jan 14, 2016 at 1:21 AM, Terry Judd <terry.j...@unimelb.edu.au> wrote: > OK - so I did manage to find and install a copy of Java 6 (I deleted the > existing newer version of Java and then did a default install) and now the > JDK path bit in the mobile support pane of > the LC preferences window has a value in it but everything else remains > the same.
