Q:

Android Studio Beta in Mac doesn't have button for AVD manager

In my Windows 7 install of ASB, I can click on Tools > Android > SDK Manager and work with the SDKs.  However, in my Mac OS X 10.9.5 install, I can't find any links to the SDK Manager.  
Similarly, in Windows 7 I can work with the AVD Manager through Tools > Android > AVD Manager, but can't find any links in my Mac install.  
How do I obtain these features on my Mac?  There is no Tools > Android in the Mac.  

A:

Update and install packages: SDK Manager

1.  Windows: go to Help > Check for Update... in the Android Studio Beta (AS) menubar above.  Click on Update and Restart.  
Mac: go to Android Studio > Check for Updates... in the menubar above.  Click on Update and Restart.  
2.  We need to download and install several packages to make the download complete.  
Windows: in AS, click on Tools > Android > SDK Manager in the menubar.  
Mac: in AS, click on the upper left red Exit button.  The Welcome screen shows.  Click on Configure > SDK Manager. 
Rest of steps are the same in both OSs. 

Configure an emulator: AVD Manager

We'll configure a sluggish emulator called an AVD, or Android Virtual Device.  
Windows: Open Tools > Android > AVD Manager.  
Mac: Click on the red Exit button in the upper left to return to the Welcome screen.  Click on Project Defaults > Run Configurations.  Click on Defaults to open the folder, then Android Application.  Under Target Device, click on the ... button next to Prefer Android Virtual Device.  That will start the AVD Manager.  
Rest of steps are the same in both OSs.
