Answer 1

You probably need to increase the debugger timeout value. I work in WTK 2.5.x so I'm not sure where this setting is exposed (are you on Netbeans?) in version 3.0.

Somewhat out-of-date instructions for Eclipse and Netbeans.

Answer 2

Just go to tools/java platform, select the CLDC Framework blah blah blah and Click refresh.

Answer 3

Although my previous answer works for some people, if it doesn't work for you, and you are on a mac, do the unthinkable...reboot your mac, yea you heard me right...reboot your MAC
