Answer 1

Override onPreExecute or onPostExecute method of AsyncTask and get SharedPreferences there:

@Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
    super.onPreExecute();

    SharedPreferences sharedPreferences = getSharedPreferences(, );
}

Please note that getSharedPreferences is an Activity method. So, you need to call it through Context if you are not using it in Activity.
