How to install Bing.Maps SDK - winrt-xaml

Kinda new to VS2012 for installing Bing.Maps SDK
I have downloaded this from this from:
BingMaps SDK
http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/ebc98390-5320-4088-a2b5-8f276e4530f9
It wont install when I double click it, there is msg " Use this app for all .vsix files" so What tool I need to use to install it in VS2012?
Thanks

After downloading .VSIX file, double click on that file. If you are prompt to choose app to run, choose Visual Studio 2012.

Error "Dependent package with key emulator not found" while updating Android SDK and tools

I tried to update my Android Studio and got this error. How can I fix this?
I don't have much experience with Android studio and Android app development.
I am using Android Studio 2.3 and Linux.
This worked for me as this post try: Update 2
https://stackoverflow.com/a/42735118/5133603
Update 2:
Solution to emulator package issue!
After digging in the repo's XML for a while I've spotted the issue.
It turns out that the "emulator" package is only in channel 3 (canary) while the "tools" package is in channel 0 (stable) but depends on "emulator". The solution is to force the manager to download the "emulator" package from channel 3:
./sdkmanager --channel=3 emulator
Problem solved!
This is what worked for me:
Download the command line tools, place them in the SDK folder (e.g., on mac: /Users/user/Library/Android/sdk), and then add the bin folder to the PATH.
Install the latest platform: in a terminal, execute sdkmanager "platforms;android-25"
Open Android Studio, and go to the SDK Manager (Appearance and Behavior > System Settings > Android SDK)
Click on "Edit", and then select the sdk folder. Then "Next" > "Next" > "Finish".
I hope this works for you too.
Temporarily change update channel to Canary Channel (Settings > Appearance & Behavior > System Settings > Updates). It works for me (Windows, Android Studio 2.3) I hope, this bug will be fixed in the next version of Android Studio.
My solution using Void Linux (it should fix for other distributions too):
Create a new folder named Sdk in this exact path. Bash example: $ mkdir $HOME/Android/Sdk
cd to this folder, and download the latest SDK command line version. Bash example: $ curl https://dl.google.com/dl/android/studio/ide-zips/2.3.0.8/android-studio-ide-162.3764568-linux.zip
Extract the android-studio-ide-162.3764568-linux.zip. It must be this way: $HOME/Android/Sdk/tools
Launch Android Studio, and then proceed with normal installation.
PS: If you don't have a Android folder on your $HOME, you should create it, and then make the steps 1, 2, and 3, select the $HOME/Android/Sdk Folder in Android Studio → Configure → *SDK Manager → Edit, and proceed to step 4.
Start "Android SDK Manager" from this path:
%Android_home%\SDK Manager.exe
Install all updates from this manager.
P.S. This worked for me.
This is what worked:
Download the command line tools and place them in the SDK folder (on mac:~/Library/Android/sdk).
Install Android studio 2.3 (on mac: /Application/Android Studio.app)
Add path to java in Android Studio (export PATH=/Applications/Android Studio.app/Contents/jre/jdk/Contents/Home/bin:$PATH)
Set JAVA_HOME (export JAVA_HOME=/Applications/Android Studio.app/Contents/jre/jdk/Contents/Home)
cd to ~/Library/Android/sdk/tools/bin and execute ./sdkmanager "platforms;android-25"
Accept the license - this will install the android-25 platform
Launch Android Studio, and goto the SDK Manager. The SDK Manager will now recognize the SDK path (~/Library/Android/sdk).
Now install the rest of the tools.
This fixed it for me (on a fully-patched Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial Xerus)).
Disclaimer: I cleaned up everything beforehand:
rm -Rf ~/android-studio/ ~/.AndroidStudio2.2/ ~/.android/ ~/Android/
Then:
wget https://dl.google.com/dl/android/studio/ide-zips/2.3.0.8/android-studio-ide-162.3764568-linux.zip
wget https://dl.google.com/android/repository/tools_r25.2.3-linux.zip
unzip android-studio-ide-162.3764568-linux.zip -d ~/
mkdir -p ~/Android/sdk
unzip tools_r25.2.3-linux.zip -d ~/Android/sdk
~/Android/sdk/tools/bin/sdkmanager "platforms;android-25"
~/Android/sdk/tools/bin/sdkmanager --channel=3 emulator
~/android-studio/bin/studio.sh
Click "Configure" in the launch window
Select "SDK Manager" in the menu
The list on the right shows "partially installed" for API level 25
Click "Edit" on the right of "Android SDK Location"
You get the warning "an existing Android SDK was detected wizard will only download missing or outdated SDK components"
Click "Next"
Click "Next"
[wait while it installs]
Click "Finish"
I got this problem since hours on my Apple M1 processor.
After a clean delete of Android SDK, this workaround worked for me: https://stackoverflow.com/a/69868954/6809733
Just download the IDE - Intellij IDEA and create a new project, select
Android Project and there download Android SDK, now you can install
android studio again and the sdk is installed. Worked for me!
Just delete the directory C:/Users/%user%/AppData/Local/Android/sdk and rename the other directory in that location from sdk1 to sdk.
Restart Android Studio (close projects) and an assistant will pop-up asking you to update the sdk which will be detected during that process, so a re-download won't be necessary.

Can't configure SDK after installation of Android Studio

So I got my new laptop(Win 10) and installed the Android studio 2.2.3 with SDK bundle.
When I first executed Android Studio it got stuck on the splash screen. adding "Add disable.android.first.run=true" to the idea.properties file solved it.
After I got to the first screen, I needed to configure SDK in order to create new project so I clicked on Configure->Project Defaults -> project structure.
I set the location of the SDK and JDK , and then it gets stuck with the "Checking Availability" message:
Checking Availability
I also tried to configure the sdk by clicking from the first screen on
Configure -> SDK Manager.
In this screen it also gets stuck with the message :Looking for updates":
Looking for updates
I tried to install it as Administrator and also to install lower version.
It didn't help.
Thanks in advance
First of all update Android Studio to latest version(V2.3.1) with complete bundle.
Then you don't need to install jdk manually. after finish installation check "Use embedded jdk" in project structure if not checked. and if you needed Android NDK kit then you can download it later.

How to update SDK in Android Studio in the background

Today I'm trying to update the SDK in Android Studio on my Ubuntu, and looking for the menu that make the download process running in the background. So I want to download the SDK and continue to work in Android Studio.
As far as I can remember Eclipse has menu that can download in the background task so I can continue work while downloading.
I've tried to find the option in settings but I could not find it, and on the downloading GUI has no option to download it in the background, here is my screenshot:
Is anyone having the same issue here? How can I resolve this?
You can go to tools -> android -> sdk manager and click on Launch stand alone sdk manager hyperlink. This will open sdk manager outside android studio, select the packages and download. You can continue to work on android studio this way.
The "Launch standalone SDK Manager" option seems to be gone in Android Studio 2.3.3 for Windows. However, there is sdkmanager.bat in \tools\bin
It is possible to do it all by code using the sdkmanager tool.
The sdkmanager is a command line tool that allows you to view,
install, update, and uninstall packages for the Android SDK.
This is an example using the sdkmanager with the command line:
First at all, the sdkmanager is located in android_sdk/tools/bin/.
Go where the sdkmanager is located
List installed and available packages using this command:
sdkmanager --list
The result willl be something similar to this
In my case I want to Download a System Image with Release Name "P" with ABI x86 ( I saw this information from Android Studio)
The next step is to search that system image in your list
Finally install this package in this way:
./sdkmanager "system-images;android-P;google_apis;x86"
This will begin the process of downloading the package
After finish you can check that the image is available to use
For more info: https://developer.android.com/studio/command-line/sdkmanager.html#usage
Upgrade to latest version of Android Studio (Currently in 2.3.1).
It now support download (both SDK and plugins) in background.

Android Studio Beta v0.8.14 not showing in start menu

I have downloaded Android Studio Beta v0.8.14 and followed the steps to install it on Windows 7 from the link:
https://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/index.html?pkg=studio
The link says to launch studio.exe and follow the installation wizard. But the zip file contains studio.exe file in bin folder and directly launches Android Studio(after resolving all issues). There is no installation wizard and so it is not showing up in start menu. I don't have any others problems though but just want to make sure that everything is all right.
Am I missing something?
Android studio doesn't have an installer. you just unzip the file and its ready to go. You are not missing anything.
However, if you want to you can adda start menu shortcut for the .exe file if you want, that doesn't have an installer.

Android studio isn't starting

I have installed an Android studio from here. It worked, i wrote a hello world project and then closed it. But the IDE does not start second time. It gives me an error "caches are locked".
I installed unlocker and it says that no process blocks this folder. Does anybody know where is the problem? Thanks in advance.
I also faced this problem. I have solve my problem as follows:
Go to folder where android-studio is installed. (C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-studio)
Now go back to previous folder. (C:\Program Files (x86)\Android)
Right click on the android-studio folder and go to properties.
Now in Properties window, go to Security Tab.
Click the Edit Button
Now, a new window will open, here you click the Users(your-username-or-your-group-name)
Now, from the List below, Check "Allow" in front of "Full control"
Now press "OK", then again "OK"..
Its done.. Now you can use Android Studio easily instead of Running it As Administrator every time..
For details please visit this page
If you're like me, you could be trying to start a version prior to 0.2.0 (in my case 0.1.6)
Following Google's notes here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/studio.html
You'll need to remove and re-install Android Studio 0.2.0 & up
"Note: There is not a patch update available from 0.1.9 to 0.2. To update from Android Studio 0.1.x to 0.2.x, you must install a new Android Studio bundle from this page. The reason for that is that we have made changes to the bundled SDK such that it includes a pre-configured local Maven repository which can serve up the v4 support library and which is required for creating new projects."
Also be aware that if you have your Android SDK files stored here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-studio\sdk
You should move them before the uninstall or you'll need to download the SDK files again.
After the un-install and re-install now working on my Windows 7 64-bit system
