ADD ACCOUNT is not working in my Android Emulator

Question

In my android Emulator , i am not able to config the Gmail Account details using Add account. If i clicks the button, there is no response from the Emulator.

I also tried accessing the Adding account feature using Intent (using StartActivity(new Intent(Settings.ACTION_ADD_ACCOUNT)) ). Even that is not opening the Configuration screen.

Please help me to fix this issue.

Thanks in advance.

This answer is a bit late, but i'm putting this up for posterity. I had a similar problem, it turned out that i had to use the google api's (17 to be specific) for the target settings when setting up the emulator, hope this will be of help to someone.
