Integrated Development Environment, an application that offers editing,
compilation and linking as well as (usually) a multitude of other useful
functions.
Your second question totally transcends the purpose of this forum. You
might try stackoverflow.com with careful tagging.

This is an Eclipse understanding issue. Something's wrong with your
set-up. Please be more specific with the message. What does it say?

The best place to go is Eclipse Marketplace.
If you go to Install New Software, you can only provide a URL, I believe.
If you have a suitable plug-in in-hand, you can drop it into
eclipse/dropins.
Does this help?

These third-party additions to Eclipse have their own support forums. As
you should have read in the sticky posts at the top of the forum, you do
better asking questions about problems installing the ADT SDK in an
Android forum.

What is this Eclipse Marketplace? I'm on the site but am confused, what am I supposed to do here? Remember this is my 1st time doing ANY of this so I would like a little assistance please, Thank You in advance. I'm willing to go as far as to ask if anybody here has Skype or Team Viewer, I'm that desperate. I'm afraid if I don't figure this out I'm going to lose interest and abandon the whole thing, this is really frustrating me. I don't know why Eclipse won't find the path for me or import it.

Help -> Eclipse Marketplace.
There's also help for using the Eclipse Marketplace wizard in Help ->
Help Contents -> Eclipse Marketplace User Guide.

I realize that it's difficult to understand where some of the
third-party tools stop and Eclipse begins. The best thing to do is to
follow a tutorial step-by-step.
For example: http://www.vogella.com/tutorials/android.html

Typically, Eclipse is launched via a shortcut (in Windows), a panel
launcher (in a Linux GUI) or whatever Mac guys call theirs (I'm not a
completely idiot, though almost, I just don't remember off the top of my
head: my wife uses a Mac, but I do not).
I think you're running Windows. So, typically you launch by clicking
your shortcut, probably on the taskbar. Eclipse comes up and offers to
open the most recently opened workspace unless at one point you told it
always to open some workspace by default.
You never need to worry about where you are because Eclipse works
relative to a) a workspace and b) wherever your projects are, which by
default is in a workspace, but I always tell it to leave my project
source code and resources wherever I happen to put them which is almost
never in an actual workspace. This is an open of the New Project and
Import... wizards.
The URL you post is only about wiring up ADT to Eclipse. It's not about
Eclipse development habits. You have to marry the two and Mr. Smiling
Ofer thinks you already know that. This is why following Lars' tutorial
will teach you a great deal though it * * might * * be a little old. If
it still works, and it's probably been updated, it will help you a lot.
Best,
Russ
