Still looking for assistance here. I've uninstalled ADT and started over. Here's some screenshots as I went along:
0) After uninstalling I checked "What is already installed" to make sure it was properly uninstalled 1) Clicked "Help -> Install New Software", selected the Android repository: http://www.gimme.co.za/screenshot7.jpg 2) Clicked next: http://www.gimme.co.za/screenshot8.jpg 3) I got this warning whiles downloading: http://www.gimme.co.za/screenshot10.jpg 4) After it finished installing it prompted me to restart (which I did). Then when it started again I went to "What is already installed" to confirm that Eclipse thinks it's installed ADT: http://www.gimme.co.za/screenshot11.jpg 5) But if I go to "Windows -> Preferences" I see no mention of Android: http://www.gimme.co.za/screenshot12.jpg Also If I go to "File -> New -> Project" there is no option for Android Project. Any help would be appreciated! On Apr 6, 11:34 am, g1 <[email protected]> wrote: > It looks to me like Eclipse is not downloading/installing everything > it needs for ADT.
