Apps Android Project not showing up in Eclipse

Hello I wanted to start a new android project in Eclipse but it is not showing up when i choose file > new. I can't see any option to create android project there. And I also have android SDK too
 
Does it show up when you go to 'File > New > Other'? There should be a folder named "Android" that contains all the project types for Android.
 
yes it does. thanks..... so i went there and said new android project. in the new android project box, it asks for a package name. i wrote something but it doesnt bring up finish button on. what should i write to package name?
 
com.domainname.projectname

Lets say your project is called FooTest, then you could call it com.something.footest. You can actually have what ever you want as packagename as long as its two parts long or longer.
 
ok now that we resolved this package name, my android project is created? and i can proceed? what should i do next? write java code? how do i proceed from here?
 
If you are able to press finish on the new dialog, then the project is created. Then you can start making an app.

Android is based on Java and XML so it is importent to have a basic understanding for Java.
The tutorials site at developer.android.com is a good place to start. Technical Resources | Android Developers
 
I've got a quick question....originally when I first did this thing, under New there was Java Project, Android Project, and Project....well i ran into some issues and redid the installation and the plugin and now after going through all the steps, there is only Java Project and Project....what happened to the Android Project...I know if I click Project it will take me to a list of types of projects but I liked the quick convenience of it being right there under NEW...how can I get it back?
 
hey i'm also hvng the same prob... but android project option is not showing up even in the other option.... what to do now... i hv installed everything correctly....pls help
