also says "The Blocks Editor was not able to load the project." at the top in 
red highlight...I wouldnt mind it very much if I know that I can still work on 
my app..

I also am having this issue.  Not only have I lost a ton of work that I did, 
but I can't even opent o the part where it did at least save my work to modify. 
 So what am I to do?  I have a school project that is due Monday with this that 
is worth a large portion of my grade.  So I hope someone can find a solution to 
this.  I have tried everything and its been doing it since about 5 this 
morning, and I had lost hours of work already!!

Jamie,

I donloading the zip file you attached, uploaded it into appinventor, started 
the blocks editor and it loaded the project just fine.  I then did connect to 
phone, and the phone also connected fine, and I was able to press the buttons 
on the phone and see the screen change.

Is this really not working for you?   Perhaps this was an intermittent error?

This was intermittent but popped up randomly, when it did I lost much work.

Thanks.   I'll think about whether there's a way we can work on this, but for 
now, we'll have to wait until there is something more repeatable.

this issue happened to me too, I can add this detail about how it happened: i 
had just finished the drawning canvas tutorial and i was emptying the project 
deleting all the components

after the deletion of all the components i switched back to the block editor 
and the error was there

additional info: i also deleted the horizontal arrangment that was used to 
contain the 3 buttons, without before deleting the 3 buttons themselves

Thanks Marco.

It would be great if you could get a repeatable example.

ok guys DoG saors to the rescue =)

basically, when you delete images (maybe even components) without removing the 
blocks that go to the deleted media, blocks editor will return an error message 
(the same one you see!)
to fix this just remove the blocks that contain deleted media

example:
if i uploaded pic1.png to my media section of the app inventor and in blocks 
editor i put a block dealing with pic1.png, then i delete pic1.png from the 
media section, if i don't delete the blocks dealing with pic1.png then i will 
get that same error message

I had a similar error on my PC. I ran the Java console and found an out of 
space error when trying to load the blocks editor. To verify, I loaded my 
project on another PC and it worked fine. I then went to the Java settings in 
the control panel and cleared out the Java cache, rebooted my PC and was able 
to load the blocks editor for the project.
