I have been developing my program on my desktop, and now want to continue to work on my program on my laptop.

I copied (via SFTP - using filezilla) the folder of the project (in the workspace) to the workspace on my laptop.

When I open eclipse, it did not show up.

I am developing for androind 1.5.

I have copied over the android SDK from my desktop (both using 32-bit) and got the plugin for Eclipse. I also pointed Eclipse to the SDK

I tried to open existing project, but it will not show any projects to open.

How do I open my project?

EDIT: "File" => "Import" => "General" => "Existing Projects into workspace" does not work. THe project is not recognized. IMport existing project does not work

A: 

Use File >> Import... >> General/Existing Projects into Workspace and follow the prompts.

does not work. no projects are available to import

Then it sounds like your .project file (a hidden metadata file in the root of an Eclipse project folder) was not copied over. You should be able to create a new Android project and select 'Create project from existing source', though you may lose some of your original project settings.

Thanks. I then had the problem of it saying 'gen' is missing, which I solved with a Google search. (Solution: edit a file (any file) and save it).

A: 

I think you copy the folder without the hidden files and dirs.

Try tar the folder and put to your laptop.
