Can't make new Blackberry Project

Question

Basically I use eclipse and I installed the plugin for blackberry, however even know if I go to about and it is listed as installed, I cannot create a new project, or open the perspective either. It's nowhere to be found in the new project menu. I just followed what was on here:

http://us.blackberry.com/developers/javaappdev/javaplugin.jsp

Is there something else I need to do?

Answer 1

I have the very same problem.

1. I download blackberry jde 7.1 for eclipse.
2. Try to add new blackberry project, but there are no Blackberry project option.
3. Check my JDK version, turns out I installed jdk 5
4. Remove the jdk 5, and install jdk 6 32 bit, update 31.
5. Reinstall the blackbery jde 7.1.
6. Now I have Blackberry option when i try to add new blackbery project.
