Eclipse - Android configuration problems

Question

Where can I find older versions of Eclipse ADT
Can’t find AVD or SDK manager in Eclipse

I'm having difficult installing the Android environment on Eclipse. I've tried all the usual fixes like running as an administrator but have had no success.

I have installed the ADT Plugin which has been checked multiple times but when I restart Eclipse and go to Window-Perspective Android does not appear. I'm making this a new question because all of the solutions I have tried and none have worked.

Eclipse version - Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers

I have download the Android SDK and that's fine but can't seem to get to work with Eclipse. Grrr!

Anyone got any ideas?

P.S. I have tried using Eclipse Classic and the problems are still the same.

SOLUTION FOUND: Where can I find older versions of Eclipse ADT older versions of ADT can be found here to work with the Java version I have. Thanks for all your help!

There is no Android perspective. Are you able to create an Android project? If yes, you are good to go. — Gautham, Aug 31 '12 at 10:48
I'm not able to create an Android Project no. I can't even get to the stage where the SDK is available. — WebDevDanno, Aug 31 '12 at 10:50
What version of Eclipse (Indigo, June, other) are you using? — Dan D., Aug 31 '12 at 10:51
Sometimes the ADT plugin does not get installed correctly. I usually remove Eclipse's configuration and metadata and it works. I'm using Juno Classic. — shkschneider, Aug 31 '12 at 10:58
do check whether it is the same problem? by going to eclipse Plugin Registry. Check what java version you are using — nandeesh, Aug 31 '12 at 11:05
I am using version 1.5 of Java. Unfortunately the system administrator in work tells me that they have to use that because the work other people are doing requires 1.5. Is there a way I can get an older version of the ADT to work with 1.5? — WebDevDanno, Aug 31 '12 at 11:16

If you will be developing in Eclipse with the ADT Plugin, first make sure that you have a suitable version of Eclipse installed on your computer as described by the system requirements.

If you need to install Eclipse, you can download it from http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/. We recommend the "Eclipse Classic" version. Otherwise, you should use a Java or RCP version of Eclipse.

I was not able to install the ADT plugin for Eclipse Juno either, so I had to stay with Eclipse Indigo for a while. I noticed that others had the same issue.
