Answer 1

You should restore Hovers to default.

See your Eclipse Preferences:

Java -> Editor -> Hovers

Click on "Restore Defaults"

Answer 2

It's either in

• Java->Editor->Content-Assist->Advanced select PDE API Tools proposals
• Java -> Editor -> Hovers (as described before) Click on "Restore Defaults"
• PHP -> Editor -> Hovers
• also check settings in PHP -> Editor -> Content Assist

If all this didn't work perhaps start eclipse with -clean parameter or reinstall? hope this helps and is not to late
