I downloaded Eclipse Luna, started it then went to install new software
https://dl.google.com/eclipse/plugin/4.4
Downloaded all of the plugins, but nothing for Androids SDK appeared.
When I start Eclipse it says I need to update my Android SDK location preferences.
Could I get some assistance as to where to find it in my eclipse directory, or where to download the ADT package. Previous versions have included ADT within it, but I've failed to find a version of Luna that does.
Thanks
The only Eclipse Version with ADT incluced is Juno yet.
You can try to download the single ADT-Plugin in Eclipse: https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse
If you have the Android SDK installed you also have to add the directories "tools" and "platform-tools" to your environment path.

I have downloaded eclipse 3.8 and have also downloaded the SDK tools. Both separately. I ran the SDK manager. Everything got installed but it did not show in the eclipse. Later I tried installing the ADT explicitly. Everything went fine, I ran the SDK manager, installed whatever I needed but when I restarted the Eclipse, there was no sign of ADT ever installed. Please help.
First of all: the SDK tools are not bound to eclipse and therefor don't change the eclipse installations. They are just a set of tools used to develop java applications for eclipse. What you need to install is the eclipse adt plugin using the installation dialog from within eclipse (Help => Install new Software). You could also download the pre-bundled eclipse with an integrated adt plugin and sdk.
I'm installing Android Plugin in eclipse, I'm following:
developer.android.com/sdk/installing/installing-adt.html
I download the adt plugin and eclipse asked me to restart, I did it and when it started I got this mistake.
I click the Open Preferences, but I can't find nothing similar to adt in my windows computer. Where should it be this folder? what is usually the name?
Per the Setting Up an Existing IDE (of which the guide you are referencing is a part of):
You should have already downloaded the Android SDK Tools
Download the SDK Tools, then set up your Eclipse ADT Plugin, directing it to the directory you installed the SDK tools into.
I'm having trouble exporting my first APK in eclipse. When I click on finish, I get the message: No build tools installed in the SDK.
I've googled the problem but all the results say that i have to install Android SDK Tools, but I have it and it's been updated (22.0.1).
Any ideas?
Thanks!
EDIT:
I have ALL the packages installed but still the same error.
Ubuntu 12.04
Eclipse 3.8.0
JDK 7
From version 22 forward the build tools is a separate package. Open then Android SDK Manager and check Android SDK Build-tools and click install. The package will download and you'll be able to export/build.
If eclipse is pointing to the wrong Android SDK it won't find the build tools. If you're sure you installed the right build tools, it may be that eclipse is pointed to the wrong directory. So if you're on windows, in eclipse, goto Window -> Preferences -> Android, and check the field in "SDK Location" eclipse is looking for the build tools in a subdirectory of that folder. Goto that folder and run the SDK Tools.exe and install everything in that GUI and it should work. Otherwise, change the path to your other SDK installation.
Here's a kinda same tutorial for Mac:
Add SDK to eclipse and no Target
When I'm creating an android project in eclipse juno version, It throws error like this The tools need to be updated via the SDK Manager. Please Help me
You probably haven't pointed Eclipse to your android-sdk folder yet.
In Eclipse, go to Preferences -> Android -> then in the SDK location text box, browse through your android-sdk folder.
The problem is that your platform/sdk tools are incompatible with the version of ADT eclipse plugin you have installed. Most likely, the plugin is updated, and the tools are not.
This is why you need to update the tools using the SDK manager.
None of the above worked for me. I had to "delete" SDK Build tools packages and then re-install the packages. After doing that, I could now create a new android project.
Which android sdk should be downloaded with eclipse galileo 3.5 version. and what ADT Plugin should be installed? i downloaded android sdk 1.6 and initially installed adt 0.7 plugin but it said adt needs to be updated. but now when im trying to update the adt to 16 it shoes the following error:
Your original request has been modified.
"Android Development Tools" is already installed, so an update will be performed instead.
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.

you can see ADT 16.0.0+ requires Eclipse Helios (Version 3.6), so I think you need ADT 15.0.1
Doing a quick search i found this:
how to install android sdk on eclipse 3.5
You download the SDK for your OS.
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
If you use windows, I recommend the exe file for you.
http://developer.android.com/sdk/eclipse-adt.html
http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing.html
You can download the Android SDK from http://developer.android.com/sdk/
index.html.
Once the SDK is downloaded, unzip its content (the android-sdk-windows folder)
into the C:\Android\ folder, or whatever name you have given to the folder you just
created.
Once Eclipse is up and running, select the Help >> Install New Software
In the Install window that appears, type http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse in the text and click Add
You may reinstall the eclipse by the following steps
Install jre7 with Netbeans
install eclipse
install ADT
in the step 3, you are asked to install Android SDK version by which package. click the top option
