Google Maps Hash value not accepted (Convert SHA1 to MD5?)
<p>I've followed the steps delineated in Lee's android book on generating an MD5 fingerprint:</p>

<p>At a command prompt, I navigated to: C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin</p>

<p>I then entered:
keytool.exe ... C:\Users\Clay.android\debug.keystore
... (etc. - from p. 112 of "Beginning Android Tablet Application Development" by Wei-Meng Lee)</p>

<p>It generates a code like this:</p>

<p>:
CC:AB:1E:GD:E8:18:29:3A:25:3D:B9:19:23:F1:10:3C:15:14:CF:2B</p>

<p>When I enter this at <a href="http://code.google.com/android/add-ons/google-apis/maps-api-signup.html" rel="nofollow">http://code.google.com/android/add-ons/google-apis/maps-api-signup.html</a>, it takes me to another page that tells me that the entered value is invalid ("The fingerprint you entered is not valid. Please press the Back button on your browser and enter a valid certificate fingerprint")</p>

<p>Note: I did not add the "" portion. I tried it with and without the colon separators.</p>

<p>As it says it is MD5 that is needed, and the values is apparently SHA1, do I need to convert this SHA1 to MD5? If so, how?</p>
