To go along with what v01d said   Using Android Studio for Mac OS X  the SDK folder could also be at  Users  user  Library Android sdk  where  user  is your username   To find out where the partial SDK installation is  go to Configure   SDK Manager in Android Studio  then click edit at the top  This should pop up a window and show the location   Copy this path and paste it front of the cd command in a terminal  Finally execute sudo   android sdk to launch the standalone SDK manager     EDIT  July 14  2016    The  android  binary file could also be at  Users  user  Library Android sdk tools

In my case I was using Windows 7 with the 64-bit OS   We installed the 64-bit Java SE and 64-bit ADT Bundle   With that set up  we couldn t get the SDK manager to work correctly  specifically  no downloads allowed and it didn t show all the API download options    After trying all of the above answers and from other posts  we decided to look into the Java set up and realized it might the 64-bit configuration that s giving the ADT bundle grief  I vaguely recall seeing reading this issue before    So we uninstalled Java 64-bit and reinstalled the 32-bit  and then used the 32-bit ADT bundle  and it worked correctly   The system user was already an admin  so we didn t need to  Run as Administrator
