Missing Android SDK and AVD Manager options

I had a hard drive crash and had to re-install Eclipse but Im sure I have configured by files wrong. Can someone please help me? I have downloaded android-sdk_r10mac_x86.zip from Google and placed the folder in my apps folder. Next I opened tools/android from within android-sdk_r10mac_x86 . This opens the Android SDK and AVD Manager. Next I downloaded from within the Android SDK and AVD Manager, Google SDK Platform Android 1.6, API 4, revision 3\ Everything is installed, but when I open Eclipse again and click on Window, there is no Android SDK and AVD Manager option. Nor is there any option when I click File / New / (The Android Project option is missing) Ive studied the links at Google Android Dev centre but it doesn't show me if I have down this right. Please any help would really be appreciated. Thanks Terry

Hi Terry Just watched your Screenflow video and re-read your original post - you haven't correctly setup Eclipse to work with android yet. Can walk you through it on Teamviewer if you like
