How do I remove old version of plugins in Eclipse Indigo - eclipse

I'm trying to update my plugins but when I do I get the following. It seems as though I need to delete older version of the plugins before I can update. However, searching in the eclipse folders (configuration, dropins, p2, plugins, features) does not find any files related to the older plugins. What do I need to do to solve this?
Cannot complete the install because of a conflicting dependency.

Looks like the problem is here:

The version of the Oracle Coherence Tools UI you're trying to install is built for Eclipse 3.6 (Helios), but you're running Eclipse 3.7 (Indigo).
Perhaps there's a later version of the plugin you could use? If not, you might have to revert to an older version of Eclipse.

Eclipse manual / offline JBoss Tools Luna install: Missing requirement abc requires 'bundle xyz' but it could not be found

We have a VM running for development, but on these machines we absolutely have no Internet connection. Local machine has Internet access, but no Eclipse there (it's the company's policy, they have to be very strict).
Luna version is 4.4 (essentially it's IBM RAD 9.5 dev tools sigh, but this shouldn't matter for my question hopefully). The latest stable for Luna is JBoss Tools 4.2.3 here: https://tools.jboss.org/downloads/jbosstools/luna/4.2.3.Final.html
I finally downloaded a file called (don't remember where)
jbosstools-4.2.3.Final_2015-03-26_22-41-56-B370-updatesite-core.zip
which includes two subdirs plugins and features and the two required files artifacts.jar and content.jar (How to install plugin for Eclipse from .zip). I then went to Eclipse Help -> Install new software -> Add... -> Archive... and selected the file I downloaded (you can copy the files from the local machine to the VM via Ctrl+C and Ctrl-V, but Internet access is forbidden).
The manual installation fails. I only selected a small subset of the features to get the JSF editor:
JBoss Tools JSF
JBoss Tools Visual Page Editor
After a very long time after completing some lengthy 15 calculation steps ("Could not perform operation... step x/15, this may take a while." the dialog says:
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.

I am currently stuck trying to install the required archive(s) Apache commons-httpclient-3.1.0 manually to Eclipse (not to the project), because I don't know where to find a ZIP file that contains the commons-httpclient 3.1.0 Eclipse updatesite files.
Question/s:
How/where do I get the ZIP files for manual install in Eclipse (updatesite files)? Does anyone know the URL?
I need to download the file to my local machine, copy the to the VM via the RDC and install offline there.
The general question would be where to find any dependencies' Eclipse updatesite files. I believe commons-httpclient won't stay my only problem.
Thanks
There is a target platform zip you can use, which includes Luna.2 and various compatible bits from Eclipse Orbit:
http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/static/targetplatforms/jbosstoolstarget/4.42.0.Final/jbosstoolstarget-4.42.0.Final.zip
Or, use the equivalent Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio install and its matching target platform zip from here:
http://tools.jboss.org/downloads/devstudio/luna/8.1.0.GA.html#zips
Hope that helps!

Issues installing Spring STS in Eclipse Juno

I'm on Windows 7 professional 64b and have just downloaded and installed Eclipse Juno 64b:
Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers.
Version: Juno Service Release 2
Build id: 20130225-0426
I go to Help -> Eclipse Marketplace then search for Spring STS and choose STS for Eclipse Juno (3.8 + 4.2) at this point I get into a deadly loop of not found dependencies and it doesn't matter how many packages I deselect, it will always complain (see below).
I have also tried installing Eclipse for Java Developers instead of Java EE. I have also tried the 32b versions. Finally I have also tried installing from the Spring STS update site http://dist.springsource.com/release/TOOLS/update/e4.2/ and still no luck.
Can anyone advice what's the solution to this problem? maybe I should switch back to Indigo?

To: org.springframework.ide.eclipse.beans.ui.livegraph [3.2.0.201303060654-RELEASE]
Actually avoid the Eclipse download site altogether and get the Spring Tool Suite IDE directly from here: http://www.springsource.org/downloads/sts-ggts. Everything I needed worked smoothly and out of the box: importing Maven projects and running the applications using AspectJ/Spring. It also comes with the critically needed plugins e.g. EGit, m2e, AJDT and everything works perfectly.
I needed this for a new GUI project on top of Spring/Valkyrie RCP.

Eclipse classic problems to update Java EE tools

I have Eclipse classic 4.2 installed in my PC and I wanted to work on the webservices project with eclipse. I have followed the following method to update the eclipse classic to support Java EE.
I have used the install new software section and added the following URL
http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/updates/
Then i have selected Web tools platform and click next.
Then I'm getting the following error messages and i'm unable to install the web tools.

Can anyone guide me how to install and get started with the current version I have?
Thanks in advance.
Use juno, http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno to install webtools on top of Eclipse 4.2.
The webtools repo you showed above doesn't have EMF in it, so you need to add an EMF repo as well or pull it from the juno update site.

MTJ 1.1.2 plugin couldn't be installed on Eclipse Juno (4.2)

MTJ (Mobile Tools For Java, a famous J2ME plugin for Eclipse) 1.1.2 couldn't be installed on Eclipse Juno (4.2).
I use the following update url to install the plugin:
Mobile Tools For Java - http://download.eclipse.org/mtj/updates/1.1.2/stable/
But it failed to be installed with dependency error:
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.

Does anyone know what's the problem of this?
I try to find a plugin containing the bundle "org.mortbay.jetty.server [6.1.0,7.0.0)", but not found.
If you read these release notes you will find the key:
http://docs.oracle.com/javame/dev-tools/jme-sdk-3.2/release-notes/pdf/release-notes.pdf
Install the MTJ toolkit.
Go to Help > Install New Software.
In the “Work with” field, enter this URL: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo
Click Add. When the plugins are discovered, open the Mobile and Device Development Tools
hierarchy and check Mobile Tools for Java Examples and Mobile Tools for Java SDK. Click Next.On the installation screen select all plugins and click Finish then click OK.
A Juno plugin named org.eclipse.jetty.server_.jar conflicts with the MTJ libraries when the plugin version is higher than 6. If it is you must prevent it from loading by changing its name so the Jar file is
not parsed. Locate the file in your Juno installation’s \plugins directory and change the extension from .jar to something else.
For example, change it to: org.eclipse.jetty.server_.old
here is the indigo update site http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo/ . FFF is right just install plugin from indigo, it works fine.
"Eclipse Juno" chapter on JAVA ME page on Oracle website states:
A Juno plugin named org.eclipse.jetty.server_(version).jar conflicts with the MTJ libraries when the plugin version is higher than 6. If it is you must prevent it from loading by changing its name so the Jar file is not parsed. For example, change it to: org.eclipse.jetty.server.old
Worked for me.
add indigo repo, it'll install but still a no go
recommend using older version if you need it

Installing Liferay IDE in Eclipse with Oracle Enterprise Pack

Has anyone been able to successfully install the Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse AND the Liferay IDE? There seems to be a mutually exclusive dependency on the Sapphire stuff and I can't find a hack for installing both.
Here is the error given by Eclipse when trying to install the Liferay IDE:
Cannot complete the install because of a conflicting dependency.

The Latest release of Liferay IDE requires a specific version of Sapphire to operate so it cannot be co-installed with Oracle that also requires a specific version that is different.
The only workaround would be to download the Liferay IDE source and build it manually and before building it, open up the valid version range for the sapphire requirements on all download Liferay IDE plugins (5 of them have sapphire deps). Note: this would mean that any time a sapphire based feature in Liferay IDE actually hit something that was required it may fail but everything else would work normally. If you are interested in going this far to fix this problem I will be glad to help but we should continue that conversation here: Liferay IDE Forums
I got the solution. Install oracle pack first and then install liferay Ide plugin.It worked for me
