I'm trying to install the Android SDK tools on my Windows XP SP3. I have jdk1.5.0_06 installed, but the Android SDK setup refuses to with the error in the following image. This happes in the next screen after detecting the JDK instalation.
Is this a known issue? And is there a solution?
Not sure about what the error is. But strongly recommend that you go with JDK 1.6.x version or 1.7x for Android development.
download the installer again & see if it solves the issue. Before installing Android SDK, make sure you have jdk installed on your system. Alternatively you can install eclipse adt plugin & it will automatically install the Android SDK for you. Installing the Eclipse Plugin
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
I have installed eclipse classic IDE in my system(Windows 7, 64bit) and tried to install sdk tool for android app development and also i am having jdk 7 SE. Any suggestion on the below error.
"Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
Software being installed: Android Development Tools 16.0.1.v201112150204-238534 "
connect with internet while installing plugin. Eclipse automatically download the dependency files.
Or see this
ADT Installation Error: "requires plug-in org.eclipse.wst.sse.ui".
Restart Eclipse first.
Then
Windows > Preferences > Install/Update > Available Software
add repositories for your eclipse version. Then select it and press reload to lead all available toolkits. Finally restart eclipse and try installing ADT again.
By the way, I have added http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios and got it fixed.
Apart from the above solutions,I would like to give you one more advice that yet Eclipse does not support jre7 for android programming.So better would be you switch to jre6 or jre5(too old).
I've installed the following:
JDK
Android SDK
Eclipse Classic 3.7
Now I'm trying to install the ADT plugin for eclipse, but in the install process I get the following error:
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
Software being installed: Android Development Tools 12.0.0.v201106281929-138431 (com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group 12.0.0.v201106281929-138431)
How do I go about resolving this error.
I started from the beginning, removed Eclipse, Android SDK etc, then downloaded everything again and re-installed. Seems to be working know, weird?!
I had the same problem right now, and I solved it running eclipse as admin...
Windows 7 pro x64
Eclipse Indigo
I got the same Issue, but I updated Eclipse and the Android SDK, it worked ! i guess no need to re install all the stuff.
I was running Eclipse Helios 64bit
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
Update for Fedora 16
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.
