As you have downloaded ADT bundle, follow below steps to setup it: Unpack the ZIP file (named adt-bundle.zip) and save it to an appropriate location, such as a “Development” directory in your home directory. Open the adt-bundle-/eclipse/ directory and launch eclipse. The IDE is already loaded with the Android Developer Tools plug-ins. Now you have to download the Platform-tools for that, Open sdk-manager from the Platform-tools directory in SDK bundle and select the platforms that you wish to download by default you have installed latest platform by the bundle itself.
I just finished the Crystal Ball app, and moved on to the Build a Blog Reader Android App project, but can't get past the first step. I downloaded and unzipped the ADT bundle for my computer, but I get an error message. I confirmed that I needed the 64-bit option for Windows 8. Here is the error message:
A Java Runtime Environment (JRE) or Java Development Kit (JDK) must be available in order to run Eclipse. No Java virtual machine was found
What am I doing wrong?
Android Adt Bundle Download For Windows 7 64 Bit
Hi Rico,
Did you use the Treehouse bundle for the Crystal Ball project? That's the big difference between our bundle and the one from the Android developer site. I packaged a Java folder into ours and set it as the default for our bundle, but you have to download and install the Java JDK separately to use the bundle from their site.
You have a couple of options:
Install Java from the Oracle website as per the instructions in this Quick Tip video.
Your first Treehouse bundle has a JDK inside it, so if you go to android_dev_environmentJavajdk (and there's some version number on the end), you could copy the full path and paste it into your ADT bundle settings for Java. Kind of convoluted!
The easiest solution is probably to download a new version of the Treehouse bundle I just released. This is a repackaging of the bundle from the Android Developer site plus the Java that you need and a script to automatically create an emulator.

The ADT Bundle provides everything you need to start developing apps, includinga version of the Eclipse IDE with built-in ADT (Android Developer Tools) tostreamline your Android app development.If you haven't already, go download the Android ADT Bundle. (If you downloaded the SDK Tools only, for use with anexisting IDE, you should instead readSetting Up an Existing IDE.)
Install the SDK and Eclipse IDE
- Unpack the ZIP file(named
adt-bundle-<os_platform>.zip) and save it to an appropriate location,such as a 'Development' directory in your home directory. - Open the
adt-bundle-<os_platform>/eclipse/directory and launcheclipse.
That's it! The IDE is already loaded with the Android Developer Tools plugin andthe SDK is ready to go. To start developing, read Building Your First App.
Caution: Do not move any of the files or directoriesfrom the adt-bundle-<os_platform> directory. If you move the eclipseor sdk directory, ADT will not be able to locate the SDK and you'llneed to manually update the ADT preferences.
Additional information
As you continue developing apps, you may need to install additional versionsof Android for the emulator and other packages such as the library forGoogle Play In-app Billing. To install more packages, usethe SDK Manager.
