I'm interested in trying out Titanium for mobile development, and it looks like the best way to do that is to use their customized Eclipse-based IDE. But, I currently use Eclipse for most of my web and android development, and I don't want to risk hosing that installation by installing the Titanium IDE.
So my question is... can Titanium Studio and a standard Eclipse installtion co-exist on the same machine without any conflicts?
Yes. You can install both Titanium Studio and Eclipse in same machine. This will not affect your eclipse and it won't make any conflicts. I have installed both together in my system and it works great.

I am currently using the Android developer Tools platform to develop android code, downloaded from http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html. Now i want to develop Java servlets as well for my server side app and generate the WAR file. As i understand it, I can't use the ADT to develop servlets. Since i think it is basically an Eclipse IDE with the ADT plugin, can i simply install another plugin so that it supports servlet development? If yes, how do i do that exactly? Or do i need to install another eclipse? I am a complete newbie to Eclipse and Java, so please bear with me.
Install the Web Tools Platform. Be sure to find out which version of the Eclipse Platform you're already using first. http://wiki.eclipse.org/WTP_FAQ#How_do_I_install_WTP.3F
I've installed eclipse on my new ubuntu 12.04 setup. I did the install through the software center. I went to create a Java project, but it looks like it doesn't have java development kit on it. I'm not sure why. I have never seen this after installing Eclipse. Any ideas why I wouldn't have any language support? It's basically just a bulky text editor at this point.
Default Eclipse in Ubuntu Software Center generally needs installation of extra packages, had the same problem many times. I strongly recommend downloading and installing from here.
You can download the java sdk and development tools right in eclipse which should fix your problem, I had the same problem before and that's how I solved it.
I was about to start with a chat application like this one. I was wondering how to do it on Eclipse. Does Eclipse support Flex development? Is there a plugin or a tool which I need to download for Eclipse?
I installed Flash Develop on my machine, but I am getting some issue in unzipping the zip file for Flex SDK which I can't figure out why. Thus I was thinking of switching to Eclipse. It will be really great if someone can also help me fix this issue.
Thanks,

Another solution would be to use Maven and especially the Flexmojos Plugin to build your application and to use Maven inside Eclipse. This was the way we did it for quite a long time, because Eclipse really sucked if a Project consisted of 50+ Sub-Projects. In the meanwile we switched to IntelliJ but are still using the Maven+Flexmojos approach.
Eclipse does not support Flex development by itself. You will need to purchase Flash Builder which is based on Eclipse. It can be used is a plug-in for an existing Eclipse installation, or installed as a standalone application. There isn't a free solution for using flex inside of eclipse that I am aware of.
Flash Builder has advantages and disadvantages compared to Flash Develop. Try both and see which one meets your requirements.
If you are having trouble using the Flex SDK to with Flash Develop, please post a new question with the details.
I cut my teeth so to speak with eclipse.
Learning Java and even programming mobile devices using Eclipse was a rewarding experince. My last and not so favorable encounter using this platform was Pulsar. But all references to it has disappeared in the new version of Eclipse called indigo. I just like to know if anyone still recommends eclipse when programming mobile device whether J2ME or any other device?
You can continue using Eclipse for developing mobile applications with Indigo release as well. Eclipse Pulsar was a packaging of several Eclipse projects for a providing an all in one download. Pulsar package is discontinued on the indigo release because it lacked the volunteers to support it. However all the projects that were part of the Pulsar are available on indigo release with their new versions.
For JavaME development you can install the eclipse MTJ (mobile tools of Java) using the eclipse update manager.
While Java ME is waning in popularity, Eclipse is now the platform of choice for developing for Android devices (see ADT). I believe Blackberry also has Eclipse-based tooling. What's left is iOS and Windows Phone. For iOS, I have heard some people using Eclipse CDT for development, but it's not a first-class experience due to lack of support from Apple. For Windows Phone, it's Dev Studio all the way.
i am planning to start develop a website that uses webservices , i am thinking using zend framework.
as i am pretty much new for zend , i don't know much about its tools and configuration
i have eclipse installed in my computer , now is there something like zend plug in that i can download and install in eclipse.
As i have download the Eclipse PHP Development Tools (PDT) but its a separate eclipse studio only , but i want to use it from my already installed eclipse.
There is a branded version of Eclipse called Zend Studio but it is pretty expensive.
Check out Netbeans.
I have been using PHPeclipse and it has worked great.
This is their tutorial how to install :

PDT is not studio only, you can use it with any version of Eclipse. If you already have an Eclipse installation you'll want to add their update site and then install the plugin that way. See the installation instructions here: http://wiki.eclipse.org/PDT/Installation for whichever Eclipse version you have.
Zend Studio is based on PDT, and I believe it has better ZF integration but it is a commercial product.
