Implementing Google maps into xml file error?

Question

I am coding Google maps v2 into my app but have run into an error. I have already included the API key in the manifest.

Whenever I click on "Map" from the list on the menu for my app the application crashes: Below is the errors shown in LogCat:

E/AndroidRuntime(2041): FATAL EXCEPTION: main
E/AndroidRuntime(2041): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.anonymous.anonymous1/com.anonymous.anonymous1.Activity_Map}: android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #3: Error inflating class fragment

This is the relevant Java and xml file: http://pastebin.com/LkjrHkPy

Does anyone know how to resolve this error so i can see the map on my application? I think it may have something to do with the xml containing a fragment.

Thank you for your time!

Can you post the full stack trace? If you're using an emulator, is it running the Google APIs? — Nachi

@Nachi You mean this? pastebin.com/zeSj0JK6 I am using a nexus device, not an emulator — Rav

Yep, your real error is java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class "com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment". This might help. — Nachi

Based upon the ClassNotFoundException, you need to add the Android library project for the Google Play Services to your app: http://developer.android.com/google/play-services/setup.html

I have imported the google play services but it doesn't work since I already have a MainActivity

@user1892991: Your stack trace does not refer to MainActivity. You can tell this by searching your stack trace for MainActivity and not finding it. Also, the Google Play Services library project does not have a MainActivity.
