                                     try using "http" in the Location URL, instead of
                                     "https" (https is preferred for security reasons).
                                     Click OK.

                                     In the next window, you'll see a list of the tools

                                      Select Android from the left panel.
                                      For the SDK Location in the main panel,
                                      click Browse... and locate your downloaded SDK
                                      directory.

                                      If you are behind a firewall (such as a corporate

                                      configured your proxy settings in Eclipse. In
                                      Eclipse, you can configure proxy information
                                      from the main Eclipse menu in Window (on Mac
                                      OS X, Eclipse)
                                      > Preferences > General > Network
Connections.


Step 6   Setting up SDK using   If you used the Windows installer, when you
         Android SDK and AVD
                                complete the installation wizard, it will launch
               Manager
                                the Android SDK and AVD Manager with a
                                default set of platforms and other components
                                selected for you to install. Simply
                                click Install to accept the recommended set of
                                components and install them.

                                You can launch the Android SDK and AVD
                                Manager in one of the following ways:
                                From within Eclipse, select Window > Android
                                SDK and AVD Manager.
                                On Windows, double-click the SDK
                                Manager.exe file at the root of the Android
                                SDK directory.
                                On Mac or Linux, open a terminal and navigate
                                to the tools/ directory in the Android SDK,
                                then execute:
                                Android
                                To download components, use the graphical UI
                                of the Android SDK and AVD Manager.

                                Optionally, you might want to add the location
                                of the SDK's tools/ and platform-tools to
                                your PATH environment variable, to provide
                                easy access to the tools.
