I followed the instructions for getting a maps debug key but got an error saying that the fingerprint I entered was invalid. I entered the following in command prompt:

C:\Users\Teererai>keytool -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore C:\Users\Teerer
ai\.android\debug.keystore -storepass android -keypass android

and got the output below:

androiddebugkey, Jun 20, 2012, PrivateKeyEntry, Certificate fingerprint (SHA1): 75:BD:38:52:6D:03:83:E6:34:F0:3C:88:72:6F:C3:E2: 38:8A:C9:96

But when I tried copying and pasting it into the registration site, I got a message stating that the fingerprint I entered was invalid. Is there something I've done wrong? Please help.

In order for maps api to work you need MD5 fingerprint instead of SHA1. in order to get the MD5 one you need to add the -v option to the command. Please see How can I get the MD5 fingerprint from Java's keytool, not only SHA-1?
