In Android This meeting allowed time for the 80 attendees to form small working groups to develop strategic plans to guide the future of the App Inventor project.
Also, invited presenters shared the work they Check it out: Ed Week ran a feature article on App Inventor and the power of teaching students how to build mobile apps. My favorite quote is from an eighth If that doesn't fix the problem, reinstall the setup software. Follow the instructions carefully, including the steps of rebooting and uninstalling.
Still not working? See How to update the App Inventor setup software. In addition to the troubleshooting suggestions shown here, you can check out the page for General connection help.
See the Emulator Connection Help Guide. Try resetting the Companion and reconnecting. This message means that App Inventor believes it's connected to the emulator, but it is getting no response from the AI Companion software that should be running there. The most common cause here is that App Inventor setup software needs to be reinstalled. To install, you need to first reboot the system, then run the uninstaller for the old version on the tools, then download and install the new tools.
If this does not help, see the steps under Emulator Connection Help Guide. Some people have observed a problem where the app runs on the emulator, but images do not appear. To fix this, reload the App Inventor page in your browser. Use shift-reload to also reload the cache. Then try connecting to the emulator again. Unplug the phone, wait 5 seconds and plug it in again. App Inventor should resume connecting automatically.
See the instructions at the How to update the App Inventor setup software page. The aiStarter program is installed on your computer with the App Inventor Setup software. It provides communication between different parts of App Inventor, including the part in your browser. Whenever you want to use the emulator or the USB cable, you need to make sure that aiStarter is running.
If it is not running, you'll get an error message that says so. On Windows, there should be a button on your desktop that starts aiStarter. On the Mac, aiStarter should start automatically, so Mac users should not have to worry about this.
You should be able to start it by typing aiStarter from a terminal. More help with aiStarter. On Windows, App Inventor cannot connect to the device, and the command window for aiStarter shows: The system cannot find the path specified. Problem checking for devices: status 1.
To fix this, uninstall the setup software and reinstall it from an account with administrator privileges, following the directions at How to update the App Inventor setup software. Google Play will not download the AI Companion app to my phone. Is says that the app is not compatible with my device. Google Play is often overly conservative about whether an app is compatible with a given device. This is especially true for tablets.
The AI Companion should be compatible with Android operating system version 2. This is probably the same issue as above, especially on tablets. If you cannot access the MIT AI2 Companion App via the Google Play Store, you may download the APK file from this page and install it directly onto your phone note that to directly install, you will need to allow installation of non-market apps in your device's system settings.
This can also happen if your have content filtering on your Google Play account. You'll need to allow "apps for everyone" on your account in order to see the Companion in the Play Store. I ran the App Inventor Setup installer on Windows, but the phone device drivers do not install.
There are multiple reasons for this, and we're trying to track them all down. The Windows driver installation instructions in the App Inventor documentation contain our best advice, and we'll keep those current as we get more information from users. Note that the drivers included in the App Inventor Setup software do not work on all Android devices, and you may need to get drivers from the manufacturers.
See the Windows driver installation instructions for advice, and check the App Inventor Forum to see if others have had similar issues with the version of Windows and the particular device you are using. They may have scrolled off the window. Install Vagrant and open a terminal in the root directory of this repository.
Run the following commands. It may take a few minutes for Vagrant to initialize as it will pull down a virtual machine image from the Internet and configure it with all of the App Inventor dependencies. Subsequent start-ups will be faster. Next, enter the virtual machine by running:.
This directory is the same as the appinventor directory in this repository, shared between your host machine and the virtual machine. Any changes made on one side will be visible in the other. This allows you to edit files on your host machine with your preferred editor, while keeping the build environment relegated to the virtual machine.
To build App Inventor, you may now run:. Enter exit at the prompt to leave the virtual machine. To reclaim resources when you are not actively developing, you can run vagrant halt to stop the virtual machine. To completely remove the virtual machine, run vagrant destroy. If you destroy the VM, you will need to start these instructions from the top. Note 1: For macOS users, if you are using VirtualBox and get any error while initializing the VM it may be due to security restrictions in System Preferences, consider reading this article.
Note 2: If it seems like none of the dependencies are installed in the VM, run vagrant provision. This is a quick guide to get started with the sources. More detailed instructions can be found here , a slide show can be seen here , and all the documentation for the project is available in our site. If you want to make changes to the source, you are going to need to run an automated test suite, and for that you will also need phantomjs. Have a look at the testing section for more information.
