Question

I am pretty new to Android and I am having an issue. I keep getting the No Activity found to handle Intent error. I am trying to start a new activity with the button click.

I have looked at all the other answers and they were either very specific to the question as in, the answers did not apply to my question, or it was saying to make sure the activity names match, which mine do.

Manifest

    <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.madonk.louisiana.festivals"
    android:installLocation="auto"
    android:versionCode="1"
    android:versionName="1.0" >

    <uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="8"
        android:targetSdkVersion="15" />

    <application
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme">

        <activity
            android:name=".MainActivity"
            android:label="@string/title_activity_main" >
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>        
         </activity>

        <activity
            android:name=".Southwest"
            android:label="@string/title_activity_southwest" >

        </activity>

    </application>

</manifest>

MainActivity

package com.madonk.louisiana.festivals;

import android.os.Bundle; 
import android.app.Activity; 
import android.content.Intent; 
import android.view.Menu; 
import android.view.View; 
import android.widget.Button;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

  Button southwest = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button_southwest);
  southwest.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

      public void onClick(View v) {
          // TODO Auto-generated method stub
          startActivity(new Intent());            }       });
}

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

Answer 1

You did not show the source code for where you are starting the activity. Based on the LogCat output, my guess is that you are trying:

startActivity(new Intent(".Southwest"));

Instead, use:

startActivity(new Intent(this, Southwest.class));
