At approx. 8:45 the presenter is showing how to list android targets using the terminal. I am on Windows 7, have opened Titanium Appcelerator and have a terminal window open. When I attempt to do as shown it tells me "android is not a command". Am I even trying this in the right place? Any help is greatly appreciated!

go to the dashboard view in Titanium studio and verify that you have installed the Android SDK appropriately

  • I had done that before when I first set up Appcelerator, but did it again. The Adroid SDK and Google API (both version 8) have been installed. I returned to the terminal and get the same (worded incorrectly in the first message) sh: android: command not found. My computer name is "Me" and the terminal shows "Me@ME-HP ~" (following line is) $. My Android SDK is located in my C:\MyData folder. Could there be some location conflict? Thanks!

  • make sure the locations and paths of you installation match what is in this guide

  • I think I'm following, so, I uninstalled the Android SDK and reinstalled to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk" as shown on the Installing and Updating Android SDK Software section (is that correct?). I made sure I installed the minimum items shown in the instructions (Summary of Installed Android Packages). I didn't receive the prompt to restart ADB as shown. I still don't seem to be able to get anything but the same "android: command not found". I must be overlooking something - too much coffee, could be. Please bear with me. :)
