Here is the Java with the line that the log cat says I have an error on… I will add a comment to that line… it says I have casted a textview to a button but I haven’t at all.

package k.t.m;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    TextView errors;
    TextView tkm;
    TextView result;
    TextView main;
    Button mainButton1;
    Button mainButton2;
    Button back;
    Button go;
    EditText textbox;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        main = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.main);
        back = (Button) findViewById(R.id.secondaryButtonBack);
        mainButton1  = (Button) findViewById(R.id.mainButton1);
        mainButton2  = (Button) findViewById(R.id.mainButton2);
        go = (Button) findViewById(R.id.goButton); // error here in the logcat... below

        tkm = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.mkm);
        result = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.result);
        errors = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.errors);
        textbox = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.TextBox);

        textbox.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
        back.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
        go.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);

       mainButton1.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){

        public void onClick(View v) {

            milesToKilometers();
        }

       });


        mainButton2.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            public void onClick(View v) {
                kilometersToMiles();
            }

        });

        back.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            public void onClick(View v) {
                back();
                result.setText("");
                tkm.setText("");

            }

        });


    }


    protected void back() {

        main.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        mainButton1.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        mainButton2.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        back.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
        go.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
        textbox.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);

    }


    protected void kilometersToMiles() {

        tkm.setText("Kilometers:");
        main.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
        mainButton1.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
        mainButton2.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
        back.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        go.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        textbox.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        go.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {


            public void onClick(View v) {
                if(textbox.getText().toString().equals("")){

                    errors.setText("Error: Kilometers Missing");

                }
            }

        });
    }

    protected void milesToKilometers() {


        main.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
        mainButton1.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
        mainButton2.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
        back.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        go.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        textbox.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);

         go.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

                public void onClick(View v) {

                }

            });
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.activity_main, menu);
        return true;
    }


}

now here is the logcat error I don’t know whats wrong…it makes no senese to me.

08-18 15:54:14.687: E/AndroidRuntime(15778): Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: android.widget.TextView cannot be cast to android.widget.Button

This means you have to revise the findViewById. I think there is a textview declared in the java code you are referencing it to a button id. Please check that
