I am following the tutorial here: http://www.javacodegeeks.com/2013/04/android-tutorial-using-the-viewpager.html I get this error in the "Problems": The return type is incompatible with FragmentPagerAdapter.getItem(int) Here is MyPageAdapter.java:

package com.example.loginandregistration;

import java.util.List;

import android.app.Fragment;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentManager;
import android.support.v4.app.FragmentPagerAdapter;


public class MyPageAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter { 

private List<Fragment> fragments; 

public MyPageAdapter(FragmentManager fm, List<Fragment> fragments) { 

super(fm); 

this.fragments = fragments; 

} 


 @Override

 public Fragment getItem(int position) {
 return this.fragments.get(position);
 }

 @Override 

public int getCount() { 

return this.fragments.size(); 
  } 
   }

The error is on line 25:

public Fragment getItem(int position) {

When I open up for the quick fix it gives me the one option to "Change return type of 'getItem(...)' to 'Fragment' but if I do that it gives me an error on the next line and is a continuous loop of those errors going back and forth.

Any help on fixing this really quick is apperciated! Thanks in advance!

Change this line

import android.app.Fragment;

to this line

import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;

This error occurs because you are using FragmentPagerAdapter from the support package, thus it can only returns Fragment class from the support package.
