    Your Emailbox is of type View:

    private View Emailbox;

    The View class in Android, doesn’t have any getText() methods, hence that error. So most likely your field should be defined of type EditText:

    private EditText Emailbox;

    As the other fields are, and not as a View.

    P.S. All elements in Android are views, meaning that each class extends the View class.

    You can use EditText instead of View.
    To get text programmatically using getText() method
