how to add .jar file into android dependencies folder

I have a problem, I need to add a .jar file into android dependencies folder in eclipse. I have looked for similar stack posts but none of them worked for me.

I have tried pasting the jar file into the libs folder but it gives an error

cannot copy the clipboard content into the selected items"

I have to deliver my work by tomorrow. Please help. Thanks in advance

If you're using the ADT plugin for Eclipse, you must add it to your classpath. Simply right-click on your project, choose 'Properties', go to the 'Java Build Path' tab, and, in the 'Libraries' tab, click "Add External JARs" and import your JAR. This will auto-import the file and allow you to use it in your projects.

Your problem may be similar to this one: Difference between Libraries & lib folders ? How do we add jar files to lib folder?

Add it to the classpath, which is specified by the "Java Build Path" menu in the project properties.
