Cannot install e(fx)clipse in Eclipse Luna - eclipse

I am trying to develop a desktop JavaFX application on Windows Vista 32-bit. For this I have installed Eclipse Luna and Java 8. Out of the box the following is underlined in red by eclipse as an error:
import com.sun.javafx.application.Application;
I found one of the solutions is to install e(fx)clipse. But when I go to
Help, Install New Software..., I select the Luna repository and then type e(fx)clipse as outlined on
http://www.eclipse.org/efxclipse/install.html
but nothing shows up and cannot proceed.
What should I do?
Thanks.

e(fx)clipse is not part of Eclipse Luna (4.4). You need at least Eclipse Mars (4.5), but for security and other reasons, you should not use outdated software.

Unable to install Groovy/Grails Tool Suite (GGTS) for Eclipse

Am trying to install Groovy/Grails Tool Suite (GGTS) for Eclipse into my Eclipse installation.
version of Eclipse installed:
Version: Luna Service Release 1a (4.4.1) - Windows 32-bit.
When I attempt to install ggts from the eclipse marketplace either by using the Eclipse Marketplace
menu option or by using the ggts drag to install button, the following window/error message is
obtained after selecting Confirm:
The following solutions are not available Groovy/Grails Tool Suite (GGTS) for Eclipse 3.6.4.RELEASE,
Proceed with the installation anyways?
How/can it be installed?
Thanks.
My bad. I forgot to put in the right (and versioned) update site into the Marketplace entry definition after the 3.7.0 release went out. This is fixed now. You should be able to install GGTS from the Marketplace again. Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for pointing me at this here.
Keep in mind that there is no new GGTS version that is compatible with Eclipse Mars. The last version is 3.6.4 and is compatible with Eclipse 4.4 and previous versions.

I'm using Eclipse IDE juno , I need to upgrade my eclipse to kepler for developing J2EE applications, in my IDE help menu i tried to install new software and i also added kepler related download site , then it installed some updates after I restarted my laptop but it is not showing me option for developing J2EE applications.

Both Juno and Kepler are separate eclipse IDE hence you need separate installation for Eclipse Kepler and keep your original juno installer. You can download it from Here

Dependency fail installing egit on Eclipse indigo

I have this problem trying to install EGit in Eclipse Indigo on a Ubuntu 12.04:
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could
not be found. Software being installed: EGit Plug-in Import Support
2.3.1.201302201838-r (org.eclipse.egit.import.feature.group 2.3.1.201302201838-r)
Missing requirement: EGit Plug-in Import Support 2.3.1.201302201838-r (org.eclipse.egit.import.feature.group
2.3.1.201302201838-r) requires 'org.eclipse.team.core 3.6.100' but it could not be found
This is the complete Eclipse version as shown in "About" dialog:
Version: 3.7.2
Build id: I20110613-1736
I am using the default egit updates sources as it comes with Indigo installation:
http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates
I press "Select All" button for update, but it keeps showing that error. I have also take care of update everything before, but it continues failing.
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Your Eclipse version needs to be 3.8 or higher. You must have installed Indigo from the Software center in Ubuntu or Synaptic as that is what would have been installed. You can download Juno which would work for you from the Eclipse Project. It is a tar.gz that you just unarchive into the directory you want and run it. You can use the same workspace.
Uncheck the EGit Import Support feature when selecting what to install. It is optional and appears to be not supported in indigo.

Zend Studio on Eclipse "HELIOS"

I'm trying to install Zend Studio on an existing installation of Eclipse HELIOS, but Zend doesn't want to behave. The PDF instructions here say it's for "Eclipse Galileo version 3.5.1 only". Sure enough, I'm getting a strange error on a Helios.
Cannot complete the install because of a conflicting dependency.
I've already upgraded to Helios and don't want to go back to Galileo, so has anyone solved this problem or knows how to get around it?
Studio 7.x does not support Helios. Studio 8.x which is just about to go to beta does.
On my Linux (Ubuntu) I was able to install multiple versions of Eclipse for various purposes. You can install a new Eclipse Galileo version 3.5.1 and it should not effect your Helios.
For a good explanation of how to do this see: http://www.javalobby.org/java/forums/t18678.html
