Android SDK newb install question - android

I've done my best to do this on my own, but I think is time for help. I downloaded the SDK for offline installation. I got the following components:
Android SDK tools r3
Android SDK r8
Android Platform 2.2
I installed the SDK, copied the tools into the platform-tools folder, and the SDK just won't work. I tried running a sample, it didn't work and even tried running a new avd and it stays with a black screen.
Any help would be very appretiated
Thanks
UPDATE
Thanks for your help, the emulator is already starting but Eclipse does not recognizes the installation, it gives an error:
Could not find C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk-windows\tools\adb.exe!
I looked for the file and seems is not there, but I used a regular install using the installer_r08-windows.exe file! Is there anything wrong here??

The emulator might take quite a while to load when running for the first time.

Well,If you are running for the first time it will take time to boot up !

Android Studio Cannot launch AVD in emulator No such file or directory

I installed Android Studio 2.1.2 in Windows 8.1 64bit operating system, having 4gb ram and Core M processor (1 Ghz).
I have installed jdk and jre, furthermore i have set path to ( C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_121\bin) and JAVA_HOME to (C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_121).
The very first issue i am having that i cannot open Android SDK manager by all mean. I tired to open this from sdk directory and from Andriod Studio as well but it does not get open. For this issue, i tired to many solutions but nothing worked for me (including android.bat setting).
The main issue that is annoying me that whenever i try to run my basic application in android studio i get the error:
(
Cannot launch AVD in emulator.
Output:
Could not launch 'C:\Users\Kaz\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\emulator/qemu/windows-x86_64/qemu-system-i386.exe': No such file or directory
)Error Screen shot
I followed the path to check directory existence it is there. The thing i know that i may need to change the '/' after 'emulator' but i cannot find the way to try this solution.
I tried to run 'qemu-system-i386.exe' manually , but faced the notification "this app can't run on your PC".
Please give me any solution that could help me to overcome this problem, i have spent 2 days and tried every single solution on Internet and stackoverflow but could not solve this.

"SDK tools directory is missing" when launching Android Studio on my mac

It shows that I've already installed the Android SDK but I can't find it.:<
Tried in terminal to see what's in the folder but find nothing, this location is empty. Why the app tell me that I've installed it? How can I solve this problem? Thank you!!
I would say that you reinstall Android Studio after checking the SDK Manager at first. The SDK Path may also be corrupted, so check that.
For me it was two issues, proxy settings although tested okay was not connecting to display the list of available SDKs. Also launching Android Studio using "Run as administrator" was also required.
I had exactly the same issue and I came across this post but then before implementing the suggested solutions, I decided to first restart my AndroidStudio, on restart it gave me the option to download SDK and after that, it worked perfectly well.
I have fixed it by downloading the Android SDK from IntelliJ rather than Android Studio.
Then restart Android Studio, It detects the installed version.

Unable to Download Packages via Android SDK Manager

I have recently installed Android SDK on my computer running Windows 7 x64.
I then installed the Eclipse ADT plugin. I am running Eclipse Juno JEE.
When I attempt to run the SDK Manager through Eclipse, I receive the following errors:
Nothing I have tried has allowed me to download/install/update Android SDK and its packages.
I have tried https and forcing http
I have tried running calling program as administrator.
I have added Eclipse, SDK Manager to Firewall exceptions.
I have turned off my antivirus.
I have turned off my firewall.
I have tried various combinations of the above.
I can navigate my browser to both URLs (using Firefox). That should negate "Failed to read..." options 1 and 2. Option 3 seems to be the likely candidate as the XML files do not, in fact, include the <'xsd:schema'> tag. However, I don't know how, if, or where I might be able to point SDK Manager to a local, modified copy of these XML files, or if that would even solve anything.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Note: I have installed Android SDK/ Eclipse ADT Plugin on the same machine in the past. This is a fresh install after a recent reimage.
I am not sure if this answer's your question exactly to the point but yet I hope this helps you.
As u wrote it looks like you have downloaded eclipse from its website and android sdk separately from Android website. Why don't you download the Android SDK ADT package with pre-eclipse setup.
That will make your job way lot easier.
The file name would be something like this:
adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130729.zip

Unable To Launch Android SDK with Eclipse On Ubuntu 11.1

I am new to using the eclipse IDE but I installed eclipse and the android SDK and wrote a simple hello world program a few weeks ago. So I know that it was working fine.
I have since updated to Ubuntu 11.1 from the previous version on my desktop.
Now when I open eclipse and the hello world android folder and try to compile it doesn't run.
I know that I have to launch the emulator but I don't know how, I have tried by navigating the sdk folder in the /opt/android-sdk-linux_x86/tools and also can't seem to find any references to running the emulator from within eclipse itself.
I know that I am probably missing something straightforward but please help
Thanks in advance
launch the emulator from platform-tools directory.
Do you have any emulators defined? Perhaps they were deleted/lost in the upgrade. Check out Window > Android SDK and AVD Manager.

DDMS throwing ADB error since SDK API 9 upgrade

I upgraded to Gingerbreak 2.3 SDK today and started receiving this error when I try to run DDMS:
Failed to get adb version: Cannot run program "adb": CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified.
How can I fix this? Running Windows 7, 64bit.
It seems that adb.exe is now in the SDK's platform-tools folder. I had to add the platform-tools folder to my PATH in my Environment Variables.
I tried to upgrade my perfectly working Android dev system yesterday with the new 2.3 SDK and associated ADT. After the upgrade, I couldn't get Eclipse to compile my project correctly, nor could I access the Android SDK and AVD Manager from Eclipse. Eclipse seems to have lost track of where the Android SDK was installed. I would give it the name of the folder, but then it could come back saying it couldn't find .../tools/adb.exe. Yes I know adb.exe moved. But notice that the error was looking for it in the old spot. It's like I didn't have the new ADT, but I checked and rechecked and I did. I'm thinking that the new ADT didn't install correctly for some reason, and/or I wasn't checking it's version properly.
When I searched around for a solution, everyone pointed out that adb moved and that the classpath needed to change. But there isn't really a relevant classpath in this situation. There is just a path to the Android SDK that needs to be set in Eclipse. I even tried the trick were I copied adb.exe back to the tools folder. At that point, Eclipse could find the Android SDK, but then some other problem that crept up so I gave up on that hole.
Anyway, I ended up blowing away my eclipse and Android SDK folders and starting over. Now it works fine. I'm sure there's a better solution, but I was sick of messing with it.
I'm now 2 for 4 on using Android SDK and AVD Manager to do an upgrade.
Hope this helps someone.
Update: Upon further review, I seem to have my stackoverflow topics mixed up since the OP never mentioned Eclipse.
I had the same problem and it works like this . First run adb.exe , after open ddms.bat
