• Select "Windows > Preferences"
  

• Select "Android" from the left pane. After you select "Android" you will receive an error. That is because it is not setup yet. We are setting it up now.

• Press “Apply” then "OK"A dialog box will appear. If you want to send usage data to Google leave it checked, otherwise uncheck it and press "Continue". This dialog box can sometimes get trapped beneath your window. Minimize Eclipse if you don't see it.
