Here is what I have done: Downloaded and installed android SDK, eclipse and added the google repo for developer tools.
Issue is, when I got to Projects->Properties it is greyed out.
I don't understand why? Here is an image for reference:

I need to go into properties to make android SDK is installed properly.
Thank you.
Your Package explorer is empty. First create a new project File->New->Android Application Project. Then you can check Projects->Properties.
Or path to your android workspace is not proper.Select File->Switch Workspace to switch to proper workspace.
Do right click on your project folder and click on the properties.Then you will able to find the property dialog box.
And after that the project ->property will be enable.

I know that this is a simple question but I am having a problem finding where my project is saved. I recently updated my Android Studio version and now that I have created a new project I do not know where the project files are being saved.
Does anyone have suggestions?
And also you can right click on the project and click show in explorer,
Edit:
As Matt suggested, you can use copy path also,
Note:
I am talking about Windows
The path to the project is shown in the title bar of the Android Studio IDE window:
In the above screenshot, the path is shown in square brackets after the application name ([/tmp/MyApplication]).
On MacOS with Android Studio 4.2.1 (and possibly earlier) the project path no longer shows in the Android Studio IDE window. I used to get the path from there. Also, there is no "Copy Path" or "Show in Explorer" on MacOS.
However, we can see it when we go to the project view, as you can see in this screenshot below.
I recently reinstalled my OS, and used to have a PhoneGap / Android project. Now I want to use it again, so I reinstalled Eclipse and the ADT plug in. So far so good. Now the instructions say:
"Choose New > Android Project"
However, Android Project doesn't show up under new projects, like it used to.
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/html5/articles/getting-started-with-phonegap-in-eclipse-for-android.html
I downloaded phonegap-2.6.0, but perhaps it isn't connected to Eclipse... what do I do at this stage to get Android Project to show up?
If there is no 'Android Project' under the menu it is not about PhoneGap it is maybe about ADT, are you sure you installed it correctly ?
And, also you can create Android Project with PhoneGap by using 'command line', then you just go to the same menu:" New > Project " then choose Android Project with existing source choose the path you created before by command line and that's it.
edit1: Make sure you locate true directory for 'android-sdk-mac_x86'
edit2:this is how you create Android project by using Terminal
/path/to/cordova-android/bin/create /path/to/my_new_cordova_project com.example.cordova_project_name CordovaProjectName
I had a similar problem. For me, Eclipse wouldn't respond when I clicked Finish when importing source from a phonegap project.
I later found that I had mentioned an incorrect path to the android-sdk.
Check if that is your problem.
If it is, here is how you change it:
In Eclipse IDE, click on the Window menu and then Preferences.
A pop-up will be opened.
On the left pane, click on Android (click on it, not on the + sign beside it).
In the field SDK Location, click Browse and point to the location of your android-sdk.
You are done!
Hope that helped.
EDIT:
I am using Eclipse Juno, but the options must hopefully be pretty much the same for other versions too. Please comment if this is incorrect.
I did all the steps according to the facebook tutorial on how to configure the facebook SDK, and without any luck, also tried the github configuration as shown Android Facebook SDK configuration on Eclipse
And I'm still getting in the eclipse environment a "!" sign by the side of the project I included Facebook to it. and when trying to run, it says I have errors.
Without the Facebook SDK I managed to work great on my project and run it, so it is not a problem with my project..
What can I do?
I was trying to get started using Facebook's SDK for Android with Eclipse and couldn't get it to work. After trying different things here is the solution that consistently works:
1) Import (File->Import->Existing Android Code Into Workspace) just the Facebook SDK folder alone (PATH\facebook-android-sdk-3.0.1). (Do not check the copy to workplace)
2) Import (i.e. PATH\facebook-android-sdk-3.0.1\samples\ProfilePictureSample) just one of the sample projects (for now). I will be using ProfilePictureSample as an example
As you can see, Eclipse throws errors saying that it doesn't know what FragmentActivity in ProfilePictureSampleActivity. FragmentActivity is part of the android support library. If you take a look at the package explorer, there is not a libs folder or any reference to the android support lirbary; It is on the FacebookSDK library. We need to tell Eclipse to export it.
4) Right-Click on the FacebookSDK library then click on properties. On the left menu go to Java Build Path. Then under the Order and Export tab check Android Private Libraries (you can also click on the android-supportv4-jar instead).
5) Project->Clean
Now for some reason (maybe somebody can elaborate on this), the sample project also needs to export the android support library.
6) Right-Click on the sample project (i.e. ProfilePictureSample) then click on properties. On the left menu go to Java Build Path. Then under the Order and Export tab check Android Private Libraries.
7) Project->Clean
Hopefully this helps!!
please set the Android Api for this project by this steps below
Rightclick on project->properties->android->set android Target version
Also remove Facebook library project once and again add it.
The problem was that the path to the android-supprort-v4.jar wasn't correct..
Fixed it by setting the correct path.
Import the sdk without copying the project to workspace. this solution has worked for me and does not present any errors
I installed both the Android and Facebook SDKs. I did all the steps in http://developers.facebook.com/docs/mobile/android/build/#sdk till Step 6.3.
In step 6.4, when I try to run the project in Emulator (Using Android 4.0.3), I get "Android library projects cannot be launched" and the project doesn't proceed further. Even the logcat doesn't have any content.
Can someone please tell me what may be the problem?
Thanks

Folow these steps
1. In the Package Explorer, right-click the library project and select
Properties.
2. In the Properties window, select the "Android" properties group at left and
locate the Library properties at right.
3. Select the "is Library" checkbox and click Apply.
4. Click OK to close the Properties window.
Library projects cant be launched. you can use that in your project and run your project adding it as library.
It would be much better to have the Facebook sdk as a Library so you can simply #import the sdk file into eclipse. Simple. I spent a day trying to get the sample source into a project to test the post on wall. I get the app to run but no breakpoints get called in my project, I had to create the build.xml and not sure if that is the cause. It would be better if the whole test project files were included instead of only the resources and jar files. That way you could just import everything and it should work within 5 mins.
i was developing Android applications on my macbook pro after which i had to shift to the iMac at work. So i copied my Eclipse directory and the android sdk and the workspace and pasted it on the iMac at work.
I have set the Android sdk root inside the preferences of the Eclipse but the workspace is not loading inside my package explorer?
i have made the workspace folder inside the documents folder where it was in my macbook pro.
When Eclipse starts i choose the specified path of my workspace and then start eclipse.
Why are my workspace projects not being available in my package explorer?
thank you in advance.
EDIT:
i imported the project into my workspace. But there was .classpath 5.0 compatibility error, so i right clicked on my project and clicked android tools -> fix project properties. That error regarding .class path compatibility went away but a new error came in which the whole src folder inside my project has errors.. i mean each and every class.
And the error is regarding classes that come in the Android library...for eg. it is giving me error in the getCount method saying there is no such method in a class i used to extend the BaseAdapter class..what is going wrong here?
i have cleaned my project several times, but no change.
I just experienced something similar - had to create a new workspace and import the projects from my previous workspace to make it work. Pretty annoying, but it seems to be a bug in Eclipse.
Make sure that the build path of the project links correctly to the Android SDK. Right click on the project and choose configure build path and make sure that there are no red marks there.
Your project list is stored at .metadata.plugins\org.eclipse.core.resources\projects\, so you might want check that file to see if your projects are there.
from : Eclipse - No project visible in explorer
What helped me is i went to the package explorer and on the right site click the menu i.e. go to Filters -> Non Shared Projects. Remove that check mark. Then i see all projects.
