Running android project in an already running AVD

I have installed Android SDK 4. I am trying to run Notepad application given in the sample projects. When i try to run the project its starting new AVD. But its not loading, its just hangs in the ANDROID screen. It does not even show the home screen.

If i start the AVD manually from AVD manager. The emulator starts successfully. But i am not able to run the Notepad project in the already running emulator. When i run the project its just starting a new emulator and shows the Loading Screen and stays still.

What could be the issue!

You can to go Run Configurations (by clicking the arrow beside the Run button in Eclipse), then in the Target tab change the Deployment Target Selection Mode to Manual. Then when you run the project Eclipse will show you a list of running emulators from which you can choose which emulator you want to run the project in.

Edit: Make sure your projects min-sdk version is lower than or equal to the avd's android api level
