Eclipse Problem

Hey everyone, Im new to the site and am looking to start developing code/mobile apps for the android platform. My problem is that when I go into eclipse, I click FILE, NEW, but there is no option for New Android project as shown in the videos. I have the SDK and the ADT installed properly as I can open the emulator and the SDK manager, but there is no "New Android Project". Have I missed a step?

In The Buzztouch Process my online guide I have a few tools to verify your installation. Find it at www.MySkylla.com Try File > other > Android > Android Project If it'a not there the setup is the problem. Fred

Hi, Welcome to buzztouch! If you're trying to work with a buzztouch project, then you don't need to approach it that way. Doing an Import will be much more successful. Check out this step-by-step guide for Android development with buzztouch: http://www.buzztouch.com/resources/buzztouch_For_Android-A_Users_Guide.pdf And feel free to email me with questions...address is in the guide!

You apparently haven't installed them. Open the AVD manager and install then.
