I know this question was asked in January, but, did you try cleaning the build? I just got this issue and solved it by going to Project --> Clean... and then running that. It'll delete your APK's and then when you run they'll be rebuilt. Worked for me!

In Eclipse, go to Window->Open Perspective->Other and you should see DDMS as an option. If you choose this perspective LogCat is shown by default along with some other debug tools. If it does not show up, you can find it under Window->Show View->Other->Android->LogCat.
