Can't find Google APIs 2.2

Kind of new at this guys so any help you can given/suggest would really be appreciated. I already had Eclipse downloaded on my computer and started running my app but couldn't find the Google API 2.2 version in the build target list (When I go into properties) to get rid of all the errors. The only option on the list is Android 4.3 - Open source project. I've tried downloading it again with ADK bundle from the website and still it looks the same. Any help please?

Welcome to Buzztouch and the app development world. App making is really awesome but it is a strange world for the newbies. There are lot of things which you would want to know before even you think of creating an app. I would advise you to go through all the tutorials available in the BTU for the platform you want to make app for- https://www.buzztouch.com/account/btu.php There are also awesome tutorials available in the How To's section from which you will learn how to make changes to your app like adding maps, ads, other third party sdk's, etc.- http://www.buzztouch.com/resources/ The download package of ADT bundle for android always comes with the latest android sdk. Thats the reason you find the 4.3 android sdk in your eclipse. The BT apps v2.0 needs minimum sdk version of Google API level 8 i.e. Google 2.2 (remember its google and not android api) whereas the newer version of BT core needs minimum version of Google API level 11 to compile the android apps. You can download the abovementioned google api's from within the eclipse. Just click the Android sdk manager (its in the top bar of eclipse) and it will populate all the available sdk's in the pop up window. Now you need to choose Google API level 2.2 from it and then follow the instructions by clicking install package button. Once the package is downloaded, you will then see that you will have an option to compile the app in Google API level 2.2 by right clicking your project file and choosing properties. All the best in this new venture.
