Hi,
I am new to Android. I have downloaded and installed every necessary component in order to start working with Android. The issue I am having is that in Command Prompt, anything I type in related to the Android SDK (for example: adb, or even just android) comes back with "Java was not found in your path". Now, I have changed all my PATH variables under "User" to the EXACT locations of where these folders are, but no dice. It keeps telling me to go and edit my PATH variables. Even running SDK Setup, gives me the same error, and tells me to add where Java was found (even though I have!).
I am starting to get really fed up with this, because Eclipse can't find the "jre" folder inside the Java JDK, either (that is, of course, until I copy the entire jre folder inside of the eclipse folder, or put eclipse inside of the JDK folder)...
I just know it shouldn't have to be this tedious to set everything up and I would really appreciate it if someone can help with this
I am running Java JDK 1.6.0_21 (x64), Eclipse Helios (3.6) IDE for Java EE Dev., Android SDK Revision 6, all on Windows 7 Ultimate x64.
Something to note: I have not encountered any problems with Eclipse Helios and the ADT plugin as stated on the Android Developers website. I can use Eclipse and the SDK to create and run the"Hello, Android!" application on the emulators without issues. I just want to be able to run everything from the command prompt, too. Now, if I can only get my phone to be recognized after I get this resolved.
I also need this for rooting and unlocking the phone.

In the SDK tools folder go to libs and edit find_java.bat.
Change all instances of %PROGRAMFILES% to %PROGRAMFILES(X86)% .
I had to do this for my SDK.
Your java will probably still resides in c:\program files (x86)\java or the likes.
To test if it works open DDMS.bat(May need to open twice).
I ran "ddms.bat" before changing the "find_java.bat", and it just came up that it could not find the path > checking if it is installed elsewhere. I did what you suggested (I found three instances of where I needed to add the (x86)), ran "ddms.bat", and got the same error. However, this time it also opened the Dalvik Debug Monitor. Eclipse still won't run without its own copy of the "jre" folder from the JDK at the same folder level as the "eclipse.exe"...
any luck with this? I'm also having same trouble in Win7x64
Gonna give in otherwise n reboot my ubuntu system see if thats any easier
i know i can't use OpenJDK or something so ill have to swap that but fingers crossed

Solution
Install any JRE Java, Copy the java folder at program files/Java/jre6 Paste it inside MOTODEV´s folder program files/Motorola/MOTODEV Studio for Android 1.2/ and rename it to jre
Done
Edited the eclipse .ini works a treat now wi java x64...
time to whip out the olde java books from college an see if any of it comes back to me
Is it possible to install the android sdk platforms & extras offline manually, my only net atm is my desire tethered, unlimited data but I don't wanna push my luck
I'm not sure if it may be related or not but according to the android dev page, you should be using eclipse 3.5 because they have been having problems with 3.6
May or may not be related but worth a shot.

Make nu system path
Try making new system path named PATH (all caps). its an issue with Win7 64. Hope it helps. and yes Installing the Android sdk is a giant head****. I have it all put as fare as the link to abandroid put it doesn't make plug-in available in the plug-in list. I'm at a loss...
As i said, hope it works.
Having just had this issue myself on a new install of eclipse, the sdk and adt, here's what finally helped me: making sure the java\sdk1.6.x.x\bin directorywas in front of the windows\sys32 directory in the PATH statement of the environmental variables.
I did already add the JAVA_HOME and such, but the above was the step that finally allowed me to finish the setup.

I had to finally use JAVA_HOME C:/PROGRAM FILES/JAVA/JDK1.7.0_05 That finally allowed me to instal the Android SDK

Hi Guys,
Trying to have an initial dabble into Android.
I am trying to follow the advice by cyanogen here .
When I try to install the ADT Plugin for Eclipse 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 16.0.1.v201112150204-238534 (com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group 16.0.1.v201112150204-238534)
Missing requirement: Android Development Tools 16.0.1.v201112150204-238534 (com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group 16.0.1.v201112150204-238534) requires 'org.eclipse.wst.sse.core 0.0.0' but it could not be found

I have tried installing it from
https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/
and
http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/
And I have downloaded the jar file and tried to install it locally.
Every time I get the same error.
I have installed Eclipse JDT etc. via the Mint Software manager.
Any ideas please?
OK, so I decided to develop an app for Android, just for experience.
I got SDK installed on C:Android\android-sdk-windows folder and then I downloaded eclipse on C:\User\KyoKeun file. When I opened the eclipse.exe, it popped up the error message saying: Could not open C:Android\android-sdk-windows\lib\amd64\ (Then I forgot the rest)
Does anyone know what to do? I am running on 64-bit version of Windows btw

First, check that lib path with Windows Explorer. If it exists, run Eclipse with Administrator rights. Otherwise, download 64-bit SDK (not sure, if there's two versions).
Nope, only 32-bit version of android-sdk is available at the moment.
Maybe its messing with JDK path or whatsoever, not sure.

Hello all...I have the Android SDK set up on my Dell Dimension 4600 running Windows 7 and ADB IS set up correctly as well as my environment variables. So today I go into my Android SDK to run an update and install API packages that I don't have yet and was getting some weird stuff going on. I go to college full time for computer networking and was installing all the API's just fine on my computer at the college today(actually my removable hard-drive in a computer). I got home and decided to run the same on my home computer to keep things up to date and was getting error messages. Has anybody else ever had this problem? Thought I'd ask the question and seek help from the forums. Any help from anybody is greatly appreciated. I have posted my a docx file to take a look at my screenshots and verify that I have the correct files and all. Thanks be to all!
[EDIT] So I found my answer to my problem. When going into Android SDK Manager you must right click on it and run it as an administrator for it to work and download API's correctly. Don't know if anybody else has this issue but there's your answer! Hope it helps out somebody!
I downloded the java jdk and android sdk on a windows xp laptop. everything went right until i ran the sdk manager or, i believe the avd manager and i get an error that say's failed to execute tools/android.bat:error the system cannot find the file specified. Need help with this ive been at it some time now i took a break and now im back at it again and looking to solve this promblem so i can develop applications. Thank You
Did you try a clean install?
This file should be located in <ANDROID-SDK>/tools/android.bat.
