I have a newer version (or different?) of eclipse and it doesn't have the option for the android plug in and won't pick it up from this site "https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/"

My interface doesn't look the same as depicted in this tutorial.

Someone please help!

eclipse has 2 types of ide. May be you have the different one than shown in the video.

And use http instead of https if the url doesn't work.
