If you're instantiating an android.support.v4.app.Fragment class, the you have to call getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager() to get rid of the cannot-resolve problem. However the official Android docs on Fragment by Google tends to over look this simple problem and they still document it without the getActivity() prefix.
