@dgackey @CodeMonkey @BlackCloakGS or anyone with the ability to update the GameSalad Cookbook.
I just hit the same annoying stumbling block when installing the android viewer. I last did it months ago and have just done it again...
on this page here:
http://cookbook.gamesalad.com/tutorials/4/parts/18
You tell us to paste this into Terminal... (updating the viewer number to the .apk we download
~/sdk/platform_tools/adb install GameSalad-Android_Viewer-0.10.01-beta.apk
So updated it is:
~/sdk/platform_tools/adb install GSViewer.apk
But.. it does'nt work because the '_' between platform_tools should be a '-'. platform-tools
~/sdk/platform-tools/adb install GSViewer.apk
Please fix it in the cookbook so others don't stumble into this as well..
Unless I'm to blame in which case shoot me.
Cheers
Jon

I'm still stuck on this step. I paste in "~/sdk/platform-tools/adb install GSViewer.apk" and it says it can't find "GSViewer.apk". I've download the viewer. It's in my downloads as well as a platform-tools. Suggestions?
Once again just posting to the forum allowed me to solve my issue. I wasn't pointing my terminal towards the download folder.
Cool
