i was doing the tutorial this morning when i got to the create a new category section and trouble hit. i was able to add org.eclipse.ui.view when i couldn't right click to create a new category or a new view.

i also got this message in the console.

!MESSAGE Warning: EGit couldn't detect the installation path "gitPrefix" of native Git. Hence EGit can't respect system level
Git settings which might be configured in ${gitPrefix}/etc/gitconfig under the native Git installation directory.
The most important of these settings is core.autocrlf. Git for Windows by default sets this parameter to true in
this system level configuration. The Git installation location can be configured on the
Team > Git > Configuration preference page's 'System Settings' tab.
This warning can be switched off on the Team > Git > Confirmations and Warnings preference page.

!MESSAGE Warning: The environment variable HOME is not set. The following directory will be used to store the Git
user global configuration and to define the default location to store repositories: 'C:\Users\gary'. If this is
not correct please set the HOME environment variable and restart Eclipse. Otherwise Git for Windows and
EGit might behave differently since they see different configuration options.
This warning can be switched off on the Team > Git > Confirmations and Warnings preference page.

this worked in the standard edition but i was told to switch to EE because of the better options included. this is really frustrating can someone help me please.

This is because JEE package is lacking the Platform SDK. (there is "Eclipse Platform Plug-in Developer Resources" in Eclipse IDE for Eclipse Committers(former Eclipse Standard), but not in Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers.)
You can solve this bug by installing it manually from "The Eclipse Project Updates" site. (Help->Install New Software->choose "The Eclipse Project Updates"->uncheck "Group items by category"->select "Eclipse Platform Plug-in Developer Resources")

(for EGit warnings, they are just warnings and have no relation to this problem)
