The method getSharedPreferences is  a method of the Context object  so just calling getSharedPreferences from a Fragment will not work   because it is not a Context   Activity is an extension of Context  so we can call getSharedPreferences from it    So you have to get your applications Context by     this   your fragment SharedPreferences preferences   this getActivity   getSharedPreferences  pref   Context MODE PRIVATE

As a note of caution this answer provided by the user above me is correct   SharedPreferences preferences   this getActivity   getSharedPreferences  pref  0     However  if you attempt to get anything in the fragment before onAttach is called getActivity   will return null
