During export of signed app, eclipse crashes

Question

I have an android application that I exported a signed version perfectly on March 17, 2013. Then on March 19, 2013 I updated the Facebook SDK and Android SDK Manager, then tried to export my a signed version of my app again. First mistake.

Now I've been experiencing one of the two issues ever since and I can't export a new signed version of my app to re-upload the Google Play store.

Conversion to Dalvik format failed with error 1
or my Android Application Crashes when I'm exporting it.

I've tried numerous solutions I've found on the web and still am experiencing no luck. I even removed and re-installed Eclipse, the ADT, and Facebook SDK. Still, I'm having issues.

Eclipse actually crashes which is really odd. Any ideas?

Update: So, I am no longer getting the "Conversion to Dalvik format failed with error 1" any more on export of signed app. Eclipse just crashes on export of signed app. Any ideas? I have all the latest software: eclipse, facebook sdk, android sdk, etc. I'm running the latest version of Mac OS X.

there are some where problem in your code that lead the conversion of code to byte format — Trikaldarshiii, Mar 20 '13 at 08:32

So here's how I fixed the issue, I'm sure someone will have this issue again. what worked for me was turning off automatic build. Something so small. Thanks for the help!

*Also, the answers above worked for others.

Turning off automatic build and cleaning the workspace worked for me as well. Thanks! – Mr Zorn Apr 24 '13 at 03:52

I also experienced this one. Try doing project->clean to your project and restart your eclipse workspace.

If it doesn't work read this thread it might help you.

"Conversion to Dalvik format failed with error 1" -- on export only

Go to Project » Properties » Java Build Path » Libraries and remove all except the "Android X.Y", click OK.

Go to Project » Clean » Clean projects selected below » select your project and click OK.

Disable project/build Automatically before export an apk. enter image description here

Exporting APK from eclipse (ADT) silently crashes

this might be because there are libraries that have classes that have alike names or different android target version

For me, quitting Dropbox on Mac OS X Yosemite helped (I clicked on "Report" and the stacktrace mentioned a Dropbox thread).
