Android Virtual Device Manager Eclipse Download

I just installed the Android Eclipse Plugin and the Android SDK from Google yesterday. I open the AVD Manager window by going to Window -> Android Virtual Device Manager. I then click "New" and am presented with the "Create new Android Virtual Device (AVD)" window. The problem is, I can't get the "OK" button to not be greyed out. I choose Nexus 7 from "Device", I give the AVD a name, android virtual device manager eclipse mac I choose "Android 4.2 API Level 17" as the target. And no matter what I do for the rest of the settings, the "OK" button continues to be greyed out. I am not presented with any errors. Any idea as to what I may be missing and why the window would not allow me to proceed by clicking "OK"? android eclipse share|improve this question edited Jan 23 '15 at 19:48 Shekhar 3,6672083135 asked Dec 19 '12 at 18:52 ossys 2,69931925 1 I'm having the exact same problem, but as per @Ralgha's answer, I've already installed ARM EABI v7a System Image. My CPU/ABI dropdown list is actually empty; there's nothing for me to select. Any thoughts? –dragonridingsorceress Dec 22 '12 at 12:43 1 You may want to try using different API versions. I went ahead and installed every API version that I could. Depending on the API version I choose, I have the ability to choose different CPU emulators. I have also installed the Intel HAXM which made a WORLD of difference when running the emulator. –ossys Dec 31 '12 at 17:32 1 I've installed multiple API versions (not all of them, but all the 4.x ones) and there's still nothing in my CPU/ABI list. Any other suggestions?
