i'm trying to import a folder with an existing project in Eclipse, but it wont't work.

CTRL + N --> Android Project from existing code --> give folder directory --> Finish

Once i try that, nothing happens. Nothing loads, Eclipse doesn't give me an error output, just nothing. Odd thing is that it just happens like that on one single project. When i try to import other projects, everything works just fine. I am a 100% certain that my project is not corrupted or anything. I just removed it from the Package Explorer and now it won't work anymore.

Thank for your help :)

Once try this:

  1. File->Import->General->Existing Projects into Workspace, Next
  2. Select root directory: /path/to/project
  3. Projects->Select All
  4. UNCHECK both "Copy projects into workspace" and "Add project to working sets"
  5. Finish

If you just removed the Project from Project Explorer, then Eclipse specific files (.project and .classpath) must be still there. Try to import it as existing Eclipse project: Import -> Existing Projects into Workspace.

I had this problem recently. As it turns out, the AndroidManifest.xml contained a duplicated entry (syntax error), causing a parse failure when Eclipse tried to decode it.

After I found the duplicate line, removed it, and re-added the project to my workspace, it showed up in Package Explorer just fine.

Hope it helps.

For my case there was a problem in manifest . Check whether Manifest is proper or not or any other Xml file has any sort of problem .
