As the error says, "You must restart adb and Eclipse".

To restart the adb: Head over into the "DDMS" Perspective. Here, under the Devices tab, click the down arrow. Then, press Reset adb. After that, restart Eclipse and all should be good (It may work without restarting Eclipse but, I'd still recommend restarting Eclipse anyway).

Also, I made a quick screengrab in case you can't find certain tabs/buttons: http://gyazo.com/12c6308f7d0cfdd475c00f654cbcf9ff

Hope it helps!
