I just installed the Android SDK (4.2) in Eclipse Juno on my MacBook Pro

  • 0

I just installed the Android SDK (4.2) in Eclipse Juno on my MacBook Pro and am trying to get started just by working through some of the tutorials. But when I use the Galaxy Nexus emulator (selecting ARM CPU), it works the first time. But then when I re-open Eclipse to make some changes to the project, I just get a big crash log, and nothing happens. The only way I have found to get it going again is to delete the emulator from command line in ~/.android/avd, then create it again. But that’s obviously not right and shouldn’t be necessary. Any ideas?
P.S.: This is not the problem discussed at Android Emulator do not scale to 100% for Mac Book Pro with Retina Display because the emulator is full-size and works fine the first time it is started, but doesn’t work at all the next time I open Eclipse and try to start it.

    If you are running on two screen, you might be experiencing this issue, Android VM crashes on Launch Mac. I routinely have my emulators crash on starting them and then have to manually tweak the emulator’s emulator-user.ini file to set the windows.x and windows.y values to zero. I suspect this is because I go between one and two screen modes frequently.

    Hope this helps.
