I downloaded Indigo Eclipse and installed the ADT from Eclipse Marketplace but its not showing up in the Eclipse/Preference plugin list.
I also tried removing the ADT from eclipse and the software site "https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/" from "available software sites" and then reinstalled the ADT from "https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/" using help->install new software. The installation was successful, but I still don't have any option for shortcuts to the SDK manager or the AVD in eclipse, and neither can I create a new android project.
By the way, when i check on the available software then its showing the ADT installed.
I also checked under:
Window > Custom Perspective (you will see Android and AVD Manager were disable)
Command Groups Availability > BUT CANT FIND Android SDK and AVD Manager
Also, I Checked under
Window -> show View -> other -> Plugin Development -> Plugin Registry
In the plugin registry search for com.android.ide.eclipse.adt
Select , Right Click -> Diagnose.
It shows the following problems were found:
Missing required bundle com.android.ide.eclipse.base_0.0.0
Missing required bundle com.android.ide.eclipse.ddms_0.0.0
I DONT KNOW WHAT IS ABOVE REQUIREMENT OR I AM MISSING SOMETHING, Any IDEA?
You first need to follow these instructions:
Here
You need to have downloaded Android SDK Tools and then follow the above instructions
Then,
Install Elcipse Plugin
If you follow these steps exactly and it still doesn't work I would try uninstalling the IDE and starting from scratch.
The easiest thing to do, is to install the Android Developer Tools (ADT) which includes a customised version of Eclipse which also contains the SDK for Android Development.
You will in this manner avoid the issues you are currently experiencing.

In Eclipse IDE I am trying to connect Android SDK to Eclipse.
I installed ADT plugin by,
Help - > Install new Software https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse
Then installed SDK by Windows - > preferences , Android SDK was also installed, but I don't see the "Android Application" in the menu as shown in screenshot. Also I don't see the "Android" option that should be available in the top right corner(as shown in the screenshot).
My Questions
Have I installed the ADT and configured Android SDK properly ?
Why am I unable to run the Android application ?
Please let me know if further details are needed.
You have to add a run configuration, then there will be displayed this added configuration.
Edit:
After installing the Android plugin in eclipise I needed to reimport the project, then everything worked fine.
Have you set your Android SDK path in Windows -> Preferences yet? that should be first step.
If you have already done that, then goto Help -> Install New Software and click on Already installed link. Check whether you can see ADT installed in the list of installed packages?
I am getting this error:
I have installed ADT and SDK using install new software in Eclipse. I am using Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers. Version: Kepler Service Release 2.
I used this link https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/
I do not know where the SDK is getting installed as it being done through Eclipse. Which path should I provide to remove this error. Actually I cannot even set a path as the OK button in preferences window remains disabled.
What can be the issue.
I know this has be address earlier but could not get what I am looking for hence added a new thread.
I do not know where the SDK is getting installed as it being done through Eclipse.
Not if you installed the ADT plugin separately. You need to download and install the Android SDK (see "SDK Tools Only"), then teach the ADT plugin where you installed it.
Also note that support for the ADT Plugin has been officially discontinued by Google.
Choose Window>preferences>Android
In the SDK location Text Box you need to browse the location of Android SDK, to let eclipse know where the android SDK is, and same for the ADT by chhosing HELP>Install new Software...
I had faced same problem and get solution....
In Eclipse go to Help
Install New Software ---> Add
Inside Add Repository write the Name: ADT (or, as you want)
and Location: https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/
after loading some time you will get Developer Tools.
check Developer Tool
click Next
Finish
Your problem will solved.
I have deleted folder .android in my user folder (c:/users/xyz/.android) and relaunched Eclipse - dialog box "Android SDK installation" (not exact name) has came up - then install of SDK.
Seems like I'm having some problems after updating my android sdk tools and platform-tools using the sdk manager. The problem is that, after updating, I found that the avd or sdk options in the windows dropdown menu in eclipse are gone! And, I can't find any option to create an android project from file->new projects any more.
I tried removing the ADT from eclipse and the software site "https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/" from "available software sites" and then reinstalled the ADT from "https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/" using help->install new software. The installation was successful, but I still don't have any option for shortcuts to the SDK manager or the AVD in eclipse, and neither can I create a new android project.
By the way, the android perspectives are not gone, they are still here. Also, I can manually open the avd and sdk manager from the directory where I have installed them.
Can anyone please show me a workaround? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have solved this as follows:
Window > Customize Perspective... (you will see Android and AVD Manager are disabled)
Command Groups Availability > Android and AVD Manager > check
Tool Bar Visibility > Android and AVD Manager > check
I had similar problem after updating SDK from r20 to r21, but all I missed was the SDK/AVD Manager and running into this post while searching for the answer.
I managed to solve it by going to Window -> Customize Perspective, and under Command Groups Availability tab check the Android SDK and AVD Manager (not sure why it became unchecked because it was there before). I'm using Mac by the way, in case the menu option looks different.
Well I feel silly, but my problem was that I was in the Debug perspective and they do not show up in that perspective. Switched back to the Java perspective and viola.
Window -> Custom Perspective -> Command Groups Availability -> Android SDK and AVD Manager check it
Chances are that you may be running your eclipse using Java 1.5.
Latest Plugin requires that the JRE be 1.6 or higher.
You will have to use Eclipse that runs on JRE 1.6
Edit: I had run into same problems. If it is not JRE problem then you can debug this. Follow below procedure:
Window -> show View -> other -> Plugin Development -> Plugin Registry
In the plugin registry search for com.android.ide.eclipse.adt or any other plugin related to android (depending on your installation there maybe 7-8)
Select , Right Click -> Diagnose. This will show the problem why the plugin was not loaded
Try to reinstall ADT plugin on Eclipse. Check out this:
Installing the Eclipse Plugin
I would suggest you to install the ADT plugin compatable with your Android SDK tools and try to install all the required plugins compatable with your Android SDK
LIKE
Android SDK tools Rev 20.0.3
Android SDK tools Rev 20.0.3
Android SDK Platform-tools Rev 14
Android 2.3.3(API 10) sdk platform rev 2
samples for sdk api 10 rev 1
ADT Plugin 20.0.3
Unfortunately I ended up having to re-install eclipse. but first (In Linux)(not sure of folder in Windows) do:
sudo rm -R /usr/share/eclipse/
Yesterday I tried to install titanium appcelerator and in the process I edited some of the android sdk installations Now I have updated my android sdk to rev 20. But when i start eclipse i get an error that sdk requires version 20.0.0 or above. I tried to install by using eclipse->help->check for updates-> but again the installation doesn't work claiming that required items could not be found. Please help
Goto Help → Install New Software.
In there you click the work with: dropdown and select your android adt link.
Then it will show the list of things to install choose it click next.
I also got the same error and I solved it from updating adt.
Go to : Eclipse → Help → Install New Software and click the work with drop down and select android adt link that you have used previously. It looks like this :
android ADT - https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/.
Tick the developers tools check box and click next. If you have already installed some of them, then eclipse will notify you.
Better to Download Latest Eclipse Setup Juno http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ open this link and download this version
Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers
What I did was to uninstall the latest ADT and go back to a previous ADT. It worked.
Go to Help → Install New Software - look for the already installed hyperlink. Uninstall all ADT's. Restart Eclipse and it will tell you the ADT you need for the revision tools you have. Download this ADT and install it manually. It should at least work.
I got the same error, I solved this by updating the Android SDK tools and Android SDK platform tools.From Eclipse → Window → Android SDK Manager, then Update Tools → Android SDK Tools and Android SDK platform tools packages. After this restart the eclipse and then update the ADT again. (Help → Check for new Updates).
This is the best and quick solution:
Open SDK manager -> Packages menu -> Reload
if You have to update ADT 20.0 otherwise it's not work and also not list the Number of SDK install.
i have that problem and fix by updating ADT 20.0 , also Good User Interface.
I suspected that something was wrong with my configuration, as I shouldn't have to suddenly update the ADT when everything had been previously working.
BTW, I got this with "Android ADT version required 21.0.0 and above".
To fix it, I:
Reinstalled eclipse (which is quite easy, as the zip was still in my Downloads, so I just deleted my eclipse directory and unzip the original again - eclipse doesn't use the registry)
Created a "hello_world" java app, in eclipse, to test that (fixing any problems with the standard searches");
Created a "hello_world" Android app to test that (fixing any problems with the standard searches).
Reverted my project files to the last known working version,
Imported my project, and fixed an problems, etc...
About an hour's work. No downloads (assuming you've still got your eclipse zip), no update to the ADT, and no obscure problems which I haven't faced before.
This person (http://kcwebprogrammers.blogspot.com.au/2012/07/android-sdk-eclipse-hell.html) recommends a complete re-install, but it seems that a partial restoration may work.
I too had the same problem. I resolved it by doing the following in Eclipse:
Go to Help -> Check for Updates -> Install all the Updates available.
only check on Android Development Tools then press next and accept install it :)

In Eclipse (ADT)
Help --> Install New Software ---> Work with --> Android Developer
Tools Update Site - http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/
Select all of the updates you want to install and UNCHECK option "Contact all update sites during install to find required software". After that everything should install as it is mentioned to be.
i am basically at the very last step where i have installed the eclipse and went to install the new software the ADT to get the android project on the screen and i get this message
say operation cannot be completed. see details
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
Software being installed: Android DDMS 18.0.0.v201203301601-306762 (com.android.ide.eclipse.ddms.feature.group 18.0.0.v201203301601-306762)
Missing requirement: Android DDMS 18.0.0.v201203301601-306762 (com.android.ide.eclipse.ddms.feature.group 18.0.0.v201203301601-306762) requires 'org.eclipse.ui 3.6.2' but it could not be found
it has been almost a full week of me trying to install this program someone please ease this frustration
In eclipse if you cannot access the Android SDK manager I suggest you unistall eclipse and restart.
On the other hand if you can access the SDK manager then you will be wanting to install most if not all of the software development kit environments for eclipse.
Upon install you have to start a new AVD choose your preferred SDK for that AVD and you should be ready to go.
Why dont you try the latest Eclipse 3.7.2 (Download Link)?
What is the version of Eclipse are you using?
It is recommended on the SDK page to use the classic version, seems like you are using a different one.

Goto --> Eclipse Help --> Check for Updates --> Update Eclipse IDE Package which will show up in the list of available updates. Restart Eclipse and now try to install ADT plugin which includes the DDMS. It should work.
