Eclipse luna showing incomplete help menu - eclipse

I'm using eclipse luna 4.4.1.I installed it recently and it was working fine. I had to uninstall it and again install it. After re-Installing the help menu is incomplete and i'm not able to see install new software option or anything. It was working fine before.
I know this is a duplicate question.But none of the answers there solved my problem.
Please suggest a solution.

Eclipse is not recommending fixes to errors

I recently purchased a new computer, and have a new install of the JDK and Eclipse. My old Eclipse install used to suggest/recommend clickable fixes to errors. My new install only shows errors.
How can I convince Eclipse to show me those clickable fixes?
You are using an Eclipse version that is more than 5 years old. Please immediately replace it by a new version from the eclipse website, as that will probably solve this and many other issues you might have with Eclipse.

Aptana Studio 3 plugin doesnt get installed properly on Eclipse Juno

I have Eclipse Juno running on 64bit windows 7, I tried installing Aptana Studio 3 plugin for eclipse. The installation goes fine, and aptana plugin shows up in the Installed plugin list too as follows:
But thats it! I cant see Aptana anywhere else in eclipse, not in preferences,perspectives, views nowhere!
A strange thing i noticed was that while installing aptana plugin, i wasn't shown any security warning dialogue box telling me that its an unsigned plugin, something that i was expecting.
Has anyone else faced this problem before? Am i going wrong anywhere? please help.
EDIT: The same problem persists with Eclipse Indigo too.
Solved it myself! after looking at the error logs i realized that i had previously added a archive file to install aptana from disk (failed attempt).It was mentioned in the logs at several places, dont know why, but when i removed that repository Aptana installed fine on eclipse. :)

Pydev missing after upgrading Eclipse on FreeBSD

I recently updated my ports on my FreeBSD 9.0 release machine and I think eclipse was upgraded due to a port upstream forced Eclipse to be rebuilt. Now Pydev is gone. I tried uninstalling then reinstalling Eclipse, then installing Pydev using pydev.org/updates inside Eclipse. It appears to install ok but I can't create a Pydev project or use the Pydev view. I tried removing my ~/.eclipse folder to force the creation of a new one, and reinstalling Eclipse and Pydev to no avail. What am I doing wrong? I'm running Eclipse Indigo version 3.7.1 build id: R3_7_1
This question was most similar to mine, but the solution didn't work for me. I also tried pointing my install site as: http://update-production-pydev.s3.amazonaws.com/pydev/updates/site.xml per another question on StackOverflow, to no avail.
After some more testing I finally got the newest FreeBSD port to work. I had to launch and install the plugins as root. It didn't work another time I ran it but, this great troubleshooting document helped out. I methodically went through each step one by one, and the logs indicated there was an error on my /usr/local/lib file it was trying to unzip. My user doesn't have write access to that directory but root does. I don't know why it didn't work the last time I ran it as root, perhaps I didn't install the plug-in as root. It works now, so I'm happy. Thanks Fabio, for your input.
I'm not sure how FreeBSD packages things, so, maybe an easy way out would be getting Eclipse from Eclipse.org and installing PyDev on that fresh install (or if you're also doing web stuff, I'd suggest grabbing Aptana Studio 3, which comes with PyDev preinstalled, so, you don't have to worry about configuring it).

Eclipse Marketplace not showing up (missing) on 3.7 Indigo

I installed the Eclipse Marketplace via http://download.eclipse.org/mpc/indigo/ and Help>Install New Software... and it's not showing up under the help menu as expected after a complete reboot and I can't seem to find anyone else who is having this problem?
What led me to installing the Eclipse Marketplace in the first place was my attempt to install Eclipse Color Themes (http://eclipse-color-theme.github.com/update/). Eclipse Color Themes did not appear where indicated in it's documentation either so I thought I would attempt installing through the marketplace but I think I may have a larger plug-in related issue however plug-ins like Aptana and other misc. custom plug-ins installed correctly.
I'm running Eclipse on Windows 7 64-bit if that's of any help as well.
I had same problem.
I add http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo repo and install MPC and Maven.
I tried #d_pilot's answer which didn't work but found the repo at http://download.eclipse.org/mpc/indigo/
You should be able to change the /mpc/(version)/ to get whatever you want from there, which is nice for all the other eclipse classic versions.

I had this issue when installing via Ubuntu apt-get package management and ransom bot's answer worked for me.

Getting Plugins to work with Eclipse Helios 3.6

I have been searching for a new IDE for a while. I finally decided to try Eclipse, although I am a little discontent with the memory usage, and I really like a lot of aspects about it. There are, as with learning any new IDE, some things that I haven't been able to figure out yet. One of the biggest ones is that it seems like no matter what plugin in I install it doesn't work, or doesn't appear to.
I downloaded Eclipse Galileo just to make sure that I could get plugins working there, since I know Helios is pretty new, and plugins worked in Galileo as expected. Is there something different that you have to do in Helios that I haven't discovered yet or am I missing something?
I have tried installing RSE, Subclipse, and Drupal for Eclipse (I am a Drupal developer). None of these work in Helios, but all work in Galileo.
Any help from Eclipse users would be greatly appreciated!
There's the new marketplace, so rather than using
Help -> Install New Software,
check out
Help -> Eclipse Marketplace.
I've had a similar issue with the m2eclipse plugin, but found installing it through the marketplace worked fine!
