I'm certain you have a firewall stopping the ADB connecting, if you've tried disabling the firewalls you run then double check to see if there is any old firewall software that might still be running in the background that needs to be fully removed. It might sound strange but here's why... Had the exact same problem today when I set up eclipse with the ADT. After trying everything I finally booted the PC in safemode with networking, and when I started up eclipse it then showed a windows firewall message that java SE connection was being stopped, in safe mode I had the option to allow the connection - and bingo it finally got the connection with the ADB and worked. With the PC running in normal mode I disabled firewalls but it was back to not working and I was confused why with no firewall that the connection could not be established the way it worked in safemode. I then realised that I had an old anti-virus software that came with my machine that had long passed its licence, on checking the services list in windows task manager I could see that the old forgotten firewall was still "running" (even though it had long expired and could not be controlled!) Once I fully uninstalled the old antivirus software everything works perfectly - i even re-enabled the current antivirus firewall (with ABD, eclipse and other related programmes connections allowed) and it still connects. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
