I have updated my android sdk to sdkr20, before i used r16 and my eclipse version is
Version: Indigo Service Release 1
Build id: 20110916-0149
but when I try to install ADTr20 it doesnt get installed and says
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
Software being installed: Android Native Development Tools 20.0.0.v201206242043-391819 (com.android.ide.eclipse.ndk.feature.group 20.0.0.v201206242043-391819)
What should I do now?
I'd suggest trying a fresh install of eclipse. But don't get Juno (the latest version) as there is a bug that makes the XML editors not work with ADT (see http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=34630).
Can you try updating eclipse first?
Then let it do its thing like so:
Then select the option only for tools (do not select anything else)
Once that installs successfully, try installing the other updates one by one, say select DDMS only first and so on
Note: At times, removing development tools and then installing it again helps to resolve such issues as well
They say you should use Eclipse Indigo
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.

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.
Sudhaker
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.
I am trying to install the ADT Plugin. I go to Help install new software in eclipse and then after selecting the development tool I get this error
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.

EDIT
I have eclipse 3.5.2
I did not found any solution for this. But instead of using eclipse installed with
sudo apt-get install eclipse
I downloaded it from a web page and I start that (the downloaded) eclipse, and with that version it works just fine
You need to install GEF and WST first.
GEF Update Site : http://download.eclipse.org/tools/gef/updates/releases/ (dead)
WST Update Site : http://download.eclipse.org/releases/galileo
I had the same problem, run eclipse as administrator and try to instal ADT plugin again, it works.
There seems to be some version mismatch. Are you using eclipse 3.6.2 or older version?
http://developer.android.com/sdk/eclipse-adt.html mentions that ADT 16.0.1 requires eclipse version 3.6 and higher.
Also, just check if you have installed/updated the latest android SDK before updating the adt. That might help in your case.
In case you can't upgrade your Eclipse (like me). Use this as a local archive to install ADT 15.0.0 which supports Eclipse 3.5.
http://dl.google.com/android/ADT-15.0.0.zip
I found that using a 64bit version of eclipsed gave me that error! Try using the 32bit version and see if that fixes it! =)
i had the same problem.
I solved it by open the eclipse in the console with: sudo eclipse
you just need Ecplise Helios
ADT 16.0.1 (December 2011)
Dependencies:
Eclipse Helios (Version 3.6) or higher is required for ADT 16.0.1.
ADT 16.0.1 is designed for use with SDK Tools r16. If you haven't already installed SDK Tools r16 into your SDK, use the Android SDK Manager to do so.
taken from http://developer.android.com/sdk/eclipse-adt.html
On Ubuntu 11.10,
I downloaded Eclipse using sudo apt-get install eclipse
Installed Android SDK
Installed ADT PLugin in Eclipse (Eclipse must be started with sudo otherwise you will get error as mentioned by lukap)
there is an easy solution for it just select option all available sites .. in the work with.. space and select the android packages you want to install
In windows 7, choose 'Run as Administrator' when opening eclipse. This gives eclipse the permissions it needs, and should eliminate the error. This worked for the 64-bit program.
I had similar problems, trying to install ADT plugin, but not exactly the same.
I fixed it by going to Help > Check For Updates, and just installed current updates available, restarted Eclipse, and then tried installing ADT plugin again, and it worked just fine.
I was using eclipse (helios version 3.6.2) and tried to install android SDK but i failed with abovee mentioned error.
I found the solution for this issue.
Select the "Available software sites" list
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios/201102250900 (Helios) and http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios (Helios Milestone Repository)
If using galileo select the appropriate release line from avail sw site list.
'Check for Updates' (to get the Helios updates), then install the plugin.
for native install (tested on xubuntu) - please view video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCNC34BflOo&feature=player_embedded#!
shortly:
1) run eclipse from
root-> help -> install new software -> add
name: update(S), url: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo (for 3.7.x, juno for 4.2.x)
or select in menu "work with" if path exist
2) select 'linux development'
install, all warnig/error pakages make off
3) install ADT Plugin
after install restart eclipse and select path-to-android-sdk
4) Tape (Write) bug to our linux distributive vendor :)
Enjoy!
PS Separate install - good idea :)
I am using Eclipse Gallieo and trying to use the Android Plugin.But i am getting the following errors.
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could

You need to have at least Eclipse Helios installed to proceed with the ADT installation.
I had indigo installed and received this error so it is clearly not the version that matters. My install of the ADT fails giving me this error as well.
Uninstall and re-install the latest version from the website. This fixed it for me.
I'm on Windows Vista and I had the same error message. What I did to solve it was to run the application as administrator (right click in the icon/shortcut and then click on "Run as Administrator").
I read the solution from a linux user who solve the problem runnin
when you are asked to enter the sites address select the option "all the available sites" and the select android packages you want to install thee should be 4 packages.. select these packages .. and proceed ,..
I had the same problem yesterday...and I wasted the whole day..I tried to find the solution, but I couldn't
At last today, I downloaded eclipse again and re-installed it....and now the error has gone...
If you are starting new one..then before that delete the previous one...by removing Workspace folder from your C drive...and then start it...
If you have downloaded recently or have latest version, then try to start it again..after removing the workspace folder and all connected folders....even then, if you don't find solution...Disable your Firewall and Antivirus...and try, you will find the solution....
You can also see this video on youtube "How to install Eclipse / android adt plugin ubuntu/kubuntu 11.10"...Or visit this link for this video "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCNC34BflOo"...that might help you.
For me (Ubuntu 11.10, Eclipse 3.7) it helped to start eclipse with sudo.
I choose the same workspace as normal but that shouldn't matter.
On windows 7 right-click and click on troubleshoot compatibility and run in the windows xp mode as suggested and it should work.
I'm installing the Android SDK on a fresh installation of Fedora 14 (Linux). I installed eclipse, and ran the tools/android sdk tool to install all the Eclipse components for the SDK. I was able to get DDMS to install when selecting it by itself.
And for the last component - the Android developer tools, I'm getting the ugly error message pasted below.
Now I'm Stuck in Eclipse dependency hell.
I've searched through the available packages in Fedora and I can't find the one that has the files necessary to satisfy this Eclipse dependency. Can anybody please translate what it is that Eclipse is asking for and what Fedora package it lives in?
The ugly error:
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.

I've just encountered exactly the same problem in Eclipse 3.6 (Helios). After plenty of Googling I came across this link:
http://code.google.com/intl/es/eclipse/docs/faq.html#wstinstallerror
During installation, there's an error
about requiring
org.eclipse.wst.sse.ui. How do I fix
that?
The Google Plugin for Eclipse depends
on other specific Eclipse components,
such as WST. Your installation of
Eclipse may not yet include all of
them, but they can be easily installed
by following these instructions.
Eclipse 3.6 (Helios)
Select Help > Install New Software...
Click the link for Available Software Sites.
Ensure there is an update site named Helios. If this is not present,
click Add... and enter
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios
for the Location.
Now go through the installation steps; Eclipse should download and
install the plugin's dependencies.
(There are examples in that page for 3.5 (Galileo), 3.4 (Ganymede) & 3.3 (Europa) for anyone with different versions)
The exact same steps work for 3.7 (Indigo) as well.
Just use http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo for the location.
Juno: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno
Kepler: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/kepler
Note: Step four is not necessary. Only steps one to three are necessary.
For Eclipse 3.7 or Indigo the winning URL is
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo
And for 3.8 it is
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno
I encountered the same problem in eclipse 3.7 indigo
and I have done the folowing:
help->install new software
click on "available software sites"
select all entries (CTRL-A) and remove them
add new entry at location http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo/
now add again the ADT location http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/
If you're downloaded and installed a Classic version of eclipse you are missing the essential Java Development Tools required by the Android SDK etc
I found that installing the Eclipse Java Development Tools & Java EE Tools solved this problem for me in Eclipse 3.7.
It seems obvious to many Java Developers but to those new to the IDE and JAVA etc it's important to note that they don't installed come with the "classic" version of Eclipse.
Adding the link to the Helios repo http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios wasn't enough.
In windows 7
Run the eclipse as administrator
goto Windows->Preferences->Instal/update->check "all version of available softwares" and apply--> ok
goto Help->Install new software-> add-->put the URL add or ADT zip file -->ok
thats all and its working....
I was also browsing these answers,but I couldn't get any answer to my problem.But through hit and trial I found the following solution.
First of all update your eclipse by going on Help-> Check for updates .Then, go to Install New Software and give adt location(local or url),then do check Contact all update sited during install to find required software and it would do the rest.
I am not sure whether this solution works well for other,but it worked for me and hope it works for some troubled developer out there
And for the Juno-version:
You just have to add it - not to install anything.
I found that removing ~/.eclipse solved this issue for me on the stock Ubuntu eclipse
For me, running win 7 64, eclipse 3.7.1 64, It was simply to run eclipse as admin, go through the listed steps.
Using Ubuntu 11.10 I was able to fix that issue by reinstalling Eclipse (in my case 3.7) as follows:
sudo apt-get purge eclipse
sudo apt-get install eclipse.*
From there on installing the Android SDK just worked fine.
In my case, I got the above error because the Indigo and "Eclipse Project Updates" items in the "Available Software Sites" pane were disabled.
All I had to do was toggle them to the enabled state and my ADT Plugin installation went like a breeze (as far as eclipse installations go, I guess)
I had this problem as well.
Running Windows 7 (64 bit), Eclipse Indigo. Tried all the different suggestions, but finally, simply unchecking Contact all update sites during install to find required software (running Eclipse as Admin, although I don't think this was important) got everything working fine. I hope this helps someone.
Install Google Plugin for Eclipse corresponding to your version.
for 3.6 helios link is http://code.google.com/intl/es/eclipse/docs/install-eclipse-3.6.html
for offline version http://code.google.com/eclipse/docs/install-from-zip.html
hope it will solve mine problem as well as yours.
I got a similar error in Windows Vista 32-bit when using Eclipse Classic 3.7.2 package, but it worked well after I downloaded and used Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers.
straight steps to get your ADT plugin working
Download eclipse helios EE IDE not the classic version
After unzip directly go to Checks for Update from help menu
After it get updated download ADT plugin offline version from ADROID site
Now go to Help again -> Install New software -> add -> click on archive then point to your download ADT ADT-17.0.0.zip. Give any name in name field say ADT. click ok
now from work with drop down select the adt plugin name which you given
now go ahead with installation. enjoy :)
What I did (Helios):
1) Go to Help -> Install New Software...
2) Select or add new location http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/repository/helios/
3) Check WTP of latest version checkbox and press next
4) Most probably u will get into 'additional dependecies required' situation, but that new screen will show u which packages have wst in their names, u should procede with installation of that *wst* packages
5) U didn't get 4th point stuff. In that case u have required wst packages installed.
Enjoy. Or not... :)

For those using eclipse 3.7
add the following after the http:// prompt download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo
Then click on "help" menu and click "check for updates
To help remove some of the guess and check on which dependencies are needed.
After a fresh Ubuntu install I needed the following.
Error 1:
***Missing requirement: Android Development Tools 0.9.6.v201002051504-24846 (com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group 0.9.6.v201002051504-24846) requires ***'org.eclipse.gef 0.0.0' but it could not be found

Update site:
Eclipse XML Editors and Tool from http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo
Use
http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/ instead of https

Note that this is now provided by a package, so the recommended Thing To Do is
pkcon install eclipse-wtp-sourceediting
This appears to be a one-shot “magic bullet” to get everything that Android's ADK plug-in requires on Fedora 16 (at least).
None of the existing answers worked for me. Having all the correct update sites in "available sites" was not enough to tell Eclipse how to find its dependencies.
Using Fedora 14 and Eclipse Indigo 3.7.1, I had to follow these steps to make the installation working:
Check and install "Linux Tools" from http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo
Check and install "Linux Tools" from http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo/201109230900
After restarting Eclipse, I was able to finaly install the Android SDK.
During installation, there's an error about requiring
org.eclipse.wst.sse.ui. How do I fix that?

//Try to install the extension "eclipse plugin development environment"
Use http instead of https:// and it will solve this problem.
http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/
none of above worked for me. This did:
Remove Eclipse (I think this is discussed above).
Get THIS eclipse. (The others don't have java).
This eclipse has java in it, the apt-get one doesn't
Follow these stepsThis guy nailed it. It shouldn't be this hard, but it's not that bad...
After that, I was able to bring back my Android stuff via the normal "Install new Software",
I ran into this issue to. What i did was simply extract the eclipse package using 7-zip instead of the inbuilt windows extractor.
Add this for eclipse juno
I was able to install ADT plugin after this on ubuntu 12.04

Google is your friend. Make sure you use the right version of Eclipse, and you may have to run Eclipse as root when installing.
The issue is that the versions of Eclipse that ship with Linux distributions are usually very generic in their configuration. It is unlikely that you will find the right package through your package manager, you want to use Eclipse's mechanism.
Downloading SDK tools and Installing the ADT bundle posed a problem for me on Windows and Linux.
After trying it in every way possible on both OS's even with my college lecturer with me for the Windows install, we couldn't get it working.
Both times the only way I got it working was by installing the Android ADT Bundle that includes Eclipse & SDK tools & ADT Plugin all in one.
apt-get remove eclipse-jdt and just download the bundle, it just works. :)
It's not from a repo but it works.
