Not able to create new Project with ADT version 21 (creates empty project)

Question

I've just download the Android Developer Tools v21.1.0-569685 for Mac. I'm unable to create an android application project and get an empty project whenever I follow the steps below.

I've opened Eclipse.
And used the menu File -> New -> Android Application Project.
I enter TestApp as the name.
Then click next through all pages leaving the default options.
When I get to the last page (Next is Disabled and Finish becomes enabled) I click Finish. There's a bit of activity when this happens and I can see a project added to the Package Explorer in the background, but the window with the Finish button stays there. If I cancel out of the android application wizard the project it created is still present by it's empty (see screenshot).

Note: I've attempted the solutions at Not able to create new Project with ADT version 20 with no joy.

If I download the same version and run it on WinXP, I do not have the same problem. — Leigh McCulloch, Apr 14 '13 at 05:49
This happens on Mac 10.8.2, but I've just tried the same download and process on Mac 10.7.5 and the same issue was not present. — Leigh McCulloch, Apr 15 '13 at 12:36

The problem was another Java application had installed different versions of some .jar files into /Library/Java/Extensions. .jar files on that path are automatically loaded. Removing the .jar files from that path resolved the problem.

In my case the problem was specifically the Australian Governments AUSKey software that installs .jars into the Extensions directory.

The solution was reported here https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=54452.
