Unable to do a 'get' using Eclipse TEE Plugin (TFS) - eclipse

I am running into an issue where the Eclipse TEE/TFS plugin is not allowing me to download the latest scripts out of TFS. When I right click in Project Explorer & select Team, none of the features are available (Get latest version, Rollback, etc). Only Apply Patch and Share Project appear under 'Team' sub menu item. I am connected to the TFS project under Team Explorer and my Local Path is appearing properly. Workspace and project appears to be setup properly - I setup the same way on another machine, yet I'm running into this issue.

A workaround is browsing to the files in Source Control Explorer.
Also. try to create a new eclipse workspace and import the project from TFS to see whether your issue can be solved.

The root "RF Scripting" folder you opened in the Project Explorer is not a workspace, so the plugin does not consider it and all its sub folders as TFS working folder.
If you want to get the TFS options from Project Explorer, click "File -> Open Projects from File System... -> Directory..." and then choose "C:\RFTestAutoDev\RF Scripting\xxxTest Automation (I suspect this is the folder you configured as workspace)" as the directory.

Eclipse projects are not visible in workspace folder

The weird part is I can see my projects through package explorer.
I can also export them.
But when I want to access them elsewhere e.g windows explorer, they are not there.
All I see is .metadata folder.
An unexpected shutdown of the system occurred not too long ago.
Edit: When I switched the workspace, created and opened a project, they're still not visible/accessible outside of the eclipse project explorer.
Any ideas?
You most likely haven't ticked "Copy projects into workspace" checkbox option.
File -> Import -> Existing projects into workspace:
It is possible that the projects were not put into the default, workspace folder.
To check this, right click on such a project, select Properties (it is usually available at the bottom of the list), go to the Resources tab, where you have the location of the project files displayed.
Obviously, there is a problem with Windows explorer and OneDrive in particular.
When I navigate to C:/Users/username/OneDrive/Documents/workspace or through command line I do see my eclipse projects.
But when I try to use 'Open file..' option from any application or navigate through Windows explorer, projects are not recognized nor displayed.

How to open the workspace folder from within Eclipse

My Eclipse has a project open which is inside a workspace folder.
Can I open the folder somehow from within Eclipse like you can in Visual Studio where you simply right click a project and press the "Open Containing Folder"?
There is a plugin that offers the functionality that you're seeing (and a little bit more) called, StartExplorer Eclipse Plug-in.
It's available here:
http://basti1302.github.io/startexplorer/
StartExplorer's github repo is here: https://github.com/basti1302/startexplorer
You install it by going to Help -> Install new software -> (add the update site url and install)

Git repository seems empty while opening in eclipse

I am using GitHub for sharing my code. I cloned the code from the server to my local repository and can see all my projects in the Windows Explorer.
But when i make this my Eclipse Workspace and open it in Eclipse, it seems to be empty. I can't see any projects there.
Why not?
You have to import that projects into eclipse
Click on File->Import...
Select "Existing Android Code Into Workspace" from Android
Click Next
Select your projects from your workspace
Thats it... You are done...!
its very simple you need to import it even you set it as your workspace . open eclipse click file > import>General>existing project into workspace> and chose your workspace folder or any specific project ..
Thank you
I redid everything again from scratch. Seems like it was some problem with the cloning and the repository. It is working fine now.

Eclipse: Cannot find project in Project Explorer

I am using Eclipse Juno SR1 Java EE, and checked out code from SVN as an Eclipse project. I am able to click on files in the project to verify everything was ok. The next time I rebooted, I can't see the project in the Project Explorer window.
A few things I checked: The menu item Project > Open Project is greyed out, indicating there are no closed projects. The project's file tree exists in my workspace. Eclipse won't let me create a new project with the same name because one already exists.
This is my first time using Juno, is there some new control that hides projects from view?
"File -> Import -> General -> Existing Projects Into Workspace"
"File -> Import -> Android -> Existing Android Code Into Workspace" doesn't do what you're trying to accomplish (been there...).
Assuming the above lines mean what they say, the first tells Eclipse to recognize what you're importing as an official Project. The 2nd tells Eclipse that you're importing only the code, not the Project itself.
Sometimes it's just because .project file is missing. If you have any other project, copy its .project file and paste inside the main folder of the project you're trying to import.
Try starting with the clean option in command line, maybe that should fix it
eclipse -clean
try
file -> switch workspace -> other
and tell eclipse where your workspace is
I was facing the same problem with RAD. What I did was:
imported only those projects which were deployed locally in my portal server.
Did a clean build.
Started the server.
It worked for me. Able to access my application. Rest of the projects which were not deployed as part of my local portal server, I will import them on need basis later.

How to enable Subversive (Eclipse Plugin) for a project

I am using subversive (an eclipse plugin) to connect connect to an SVN repository. I have only been using it for several weeks but it has been great.
Whenever I create a new project everything works great (see the left side of the image), the project automatically hooks itself up to svn. When I open a workspace that I had before I installed subversive it does not use the plugin (see the right side of the image).
I have tried numerous things to try to enable the plugin:
I looked under all the options under window -> preferences (especially the team preferences
I looked under all of the properties under the project (right click the project -> select properties)
I deleted the workspace folder and created a new one (and re-imported my project)
I looked at the .project file and compared it to a projec that has the plugin enabled but could not see anything relevant there
How can I enable the plugin? The only way that I have found that works is to checkout the project in a fresh empty folder and then open it in eclipse. I am trying to avoid this since it will take an hour or so to redownload.
Right-click on the project, choose Team - Share project... It should then detect the .svn directories already present and propose you to reuse the SVN information stored inside.
