Android Application Project not working in Eclipse

Question

I am having a lot of trouble trying to setting up the Android Development tools in Eclipse.

FYI: I am using a PC (64-bit Windows 7)

I tryed for a long time then uninstalled eclipse and reintalled it. I had Juno and the tutorial I was following was using Indigo so I switched, but the problem was still there.

I found a post that said to delete to keystore and restart, that didn't work.

I have been doing this for hours and I am fed up. does anyone know what is wrong? All the solutions when I google "Failed to load properties file for project" do not help...but it is the same error.

Tutorial I am following: http://www.newthinktank.com/2013/04/install-android-development-tools/

Here is the error I get when the emulator tries to start...

Exception raised during rendering: Could not find bool resource matching value 0x1110013 (resolved name: config_ui_enableFadingMarquee) in current configuration.
Exception details are logged in Window > Show View > Error Log

Command-line arguments:  -data C:\Users\Stephanie\workspace_apps -os win32 -ws win32 -arch x86_64

There are also a bunch of other errors after that, here are some, has anyone ever seen this before???

Failed to render set of icons for AnalogClock, AutoCompleteTextView, Button, SmallButton, CheckBox, CheckedTextView, DigitalClock, PlainText, Password, PasswordNumeric, PersonName, Phone, PostalAddress, MultilineText, Date, Time, Email, Number, NumberSigned, NumberDecimal, LargeText, MediumText, SmallText, MultiAutoCompleteTextView, ProgressBarNormal, ProgressBarHorizontal, ProgressBarLarge, ProgressBarSmall, QuickContactBadge, RadioButton, RatingBar, SeekBar, ListView, ExpandableListView, Spinner, TextView, ToggleButton, ZoomButton, ZoomControls, CalendarView, RadioGroup

And some with long stack traces:

Answer 1

I suggest you to try to install the bundle, that includes Eclipse and the Android SDK. You can find the instructions to install it at http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/bundle.html. I downloaded it on my pc with Windows 7 (64 bit), and it worked like a charm.
