ADT still not allowing creation of Activity

Question

I downloaded adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20140321 and have updated the SDK and ADT as necessary. I am still unable to create a new Android Application Project. When clicking finish, it still returns

'Building Workspace' has encountered a problem.
Errors occurred during the build

Clicking details reveals:

Errors occurred during the build.
    Errors running builder 'Android Resource Manager' on project 'MyFirstApp3'.
    java.lang.NullPointerException

The project does, however, get created, except that all the packages are empty.

If, however, at the second step of the creation wizard, I uncheck Create Activity, the project gets successfully created and with all the proper package contents. If I try to add a new Android Activity to the src folder, at the final step upon clicking finish nothing happens. The wizard doesn't even close; I'm left with the back, cancel and finish buttons.

Create a txt file named project.properties, then if you are getting error this message

"Project has no project.properties file! Edit the project properties to set one" Then go through project menu

project->properties->android->choose & set the "project build target". then build it.

Just setup a valid project.properties file for that project.
Edits: And please post your Logcat if this doesn't solve your problem . Without Logcat it's hard to pinpoint the problem.

Thanks Batman. Where do I create this text file? Home directory? Workspace? bundle folder? – dbconfession May 13 '14 at 19:50
Actually. The project already has a project.properoties file int he root of its directory structure. – dbconfession May 13 '14 at 19:53

Please assume I have already searched for the solution. Also that is for 21.0.1. We are up to 22.6.3 – dbconfession May 13 '14 at 20:02
Try downloading Android support Library from Extras. – Totoro May 13 '14 at 20:13
already installed. Nobody has a solution to this? I can't believe nobody has a solution to this – dbconfession May 13 '14 at 21:59
@StuartKuredjian did you solved your problem? if you did please do tell us . – Totoro May 17 '14 at 13:55
no. Nobody seems to have a solution that works. I even added the 22.3 version to my Kepler version of eclipse because I'm told 22.3 works. Same issue. – dbconfession May 17 '14 at 19:52
