Answer 1

I was faced with this too and it took a while to track down, but the problem is most likely with your gdata-core-1.0.jar.

It turns out that all gdata-core-1.0.jars are not the same (regardless of the 1.0 version number). Go to http://code.google.com/p/gdata-java-client/downloads/list and download the latest zip file (currently:gdata-src.java-1.45.0.zip). Decompress in the zip and in the ./java/lib/ you will find the latest version of the gdata-core-1.0.jar library. Try using this one and you may want replace any other older libs while you are at it.

Good Luck
