I am just starting android dev and was launching adt for the first time after installing all the past APIs from the sdk manager (down to 2.2 froyo) and i get an error telling me to update, but when it checks for an update it says no new updates.
moreover when i try to manually install the new adt from https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/ i get a dependency conflict error.
Also when i download a fresh adt from google it seems to just be regular Juno eclipse with no adroid stuff set up, with no adt splash screen or anything...
I can't proceed to learn android if i cant use the IDE because it needs to update to an adt version that it wont install.
I have tried manually downloading the adt v23 and the same error occurs, i even deleted all the adt 22 related stuff in the plugins of the eclipse directory and it somehow STILL occurs
Came across the same issue. Hence, I Deleted the old Eclipse cum Android SDK bundle and installed new bundle (Eclipse JUNO & Android) click here to download. Working fine now. As your workspace is in a different directory, noting happens to your project.
Just delete old eclipse folder and re-install new bundle from the official website. http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html works for me!

After my Android ENV got spoiled since I upgraded to version 23, I downloaded the latest ADT bundle and Eclipse is behaving weird.
First on launch it shows Unknown Publisher and doesn't give me the ADT look.
Unknown Publisher
Normal ADT launch screen
Here is my new ADT launch screen
My SDK Manager is almost fully updated too
And on selecting either new/old workspace this is how eclipse looks like:
I am not sure what needs to be done, has anyone faced such issue? Do I have to re-download everything again?
I am using Windows 7 64 bit machine with Java EE 7.
It appears that my ADT update went wrong somewhere, though SDK Manager was showing API 20 as downloaded under SDK\build-tools I couldn't find it.
Finally I just installed Eclipse Classic, ADT, Eclipse ADT plugin.
Even a fresh download and installation worked correctly
I have downloaded ADT in January. I just updated the SDK to latest. When I launch Eclipse, it get a warning that my SDK version now requires ADT 21.1, so I click to check for updates, but Eclipse does not find any udate.
Now most of my features no longer work, and prompt for a NullPointerException whenever I do any action.
Is there a way to force eclipse to update or to download the correct package and force the update?
Have you tried making sure the Android SDK first? Goto Window > Android SDK Manager. Make sure all that is updated then try Help > Check For Updates again
you could then try uninstalling the ADT plugin and -reinstall. (Uninstalling Android ADT) Google mentions if you have problems to uninstall it (http://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/eclipse-adt.html)
if that doesn't uninstall correctly then you may have to have uninstalling and re-installing Eclipse entirely
Also verify that your version of Java is patched to the latest update. It's not a bad idea to reboot the computer after each update, too.
Installing the Android SDK. Got Eclipse Juno (latest version). Ran into some minor issues with the installation, but managed to get past them. But now I have one I just can't work through. I've downloaded the Eclipse ADT Plugin. When I restart Eclipse, it gives me this error: "This version of ADT requires Android SDK Tools in revision 20.0.0 or above. Current revision is 16.0.0. Please update your SDK Tools to the latest version." The error dialog box gives me a button to open the SDK Manager, which I take. It opens the SDK Manager and it finds the new packages that I need. When I go to install them, I get ANOTHER error. The log says:
"Failed to rename directory C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools to
C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\temp\PlatformToolPackage.old01."
and a dialog pops up telling me that it can't rename the folder and what to try to get it to work. It never works, and I have to Cancel everything all the way back to Eclipse (which is still miffed that I don't have the latest stuff).
I've tried rebooting and such, but it doesn't help. I tried running the SDK Manager as Admin, but when I do that, it thinks it has all the latest stuff (weird) and won't want to download anything.
Just FYI, I have Rev. 16 of the Android SDK Tools (it wants 20) and have Rev. 10 of the Android SDK Platform-tools (it wants 12).
Thanks for any help!
Did you start eclipse as an Administrator? If not, try it, sometimes eclipse just installing updates if you are an admin.
If I update SDK, I first start SDK-Manager without eclipse to install updates. After this is done, I am doing the same in eclipse. Always do this as an admin.
Yesterday, I was installing ADT for Eclipse. It all went well, until I clicked Check for Updates. After Eclipse rebooted, all the preferences are gone, I can't create new project, ADTs are gone. But when I try to download ADT from the Install New Software option, it says that I've installed it.
I've also reinstall Eclipse and same thing still occurs.
What can I do to fix this? I do not know what causes this whether it is ADT or Eclipse itself, because I can't even create new project for C++ or even Java.
I have Eclipse Indigo.
EDIT: I'm using Ubuntu 12.04
After installing ADT plugin go to windows > Android SDK Manager, after loading the packages click on install button, after installation is complete then check your problem is solve.
Ok, everything was working fine, I had the ADT 0.9 installed under eclipse Galileo. But then I just tryied to install the Honeycomb preview SDK and for that I was prompted to install the ADT 9.0.
The problem is that somehow my tools folder was erased! and apparently it has now been renamed as platform-tools. But whenever I go to Preferences->Android and put the folder where my SDK is, eclipse keeps complaining about the missing tools directory.
What can I do?
UPDATE: The problem was a mix of bad ADT installation and an expired debug key. For more info about how dealing with the expired debug key just take a look at: http://androidbook.blogspot.com/2009/11/tip-dealing-with-expired-debug.html
Restart your workbench and go to Help -> Check for updates. The many of the tools were officially moved from $sdk_root/tools to $sdk_root/platform-tools and the only reason you would be receiving an error would be that you have an old version of ADT.
You can check the version of ADT by going to Help -> About Eclipse SDK. My guess is that either the update failed or after the update you didn't restart the work bench. If neither of these cases is true, i would recommend uninstalling the SDKs and redownloading.
