I've installed PyDev (tried latest 1.6, latest 2.2 separately) in OSX 10.6.8,
Eclipse Helios SR2.  Eclipse is installed (unzipped) in /Applications.
Once the PyDev install completes and eclipse is restarted, PyDev is not available
in Window->Open Perspective and not available in Preferences.  I seems like
it has not been installed at all.  I've tried installing through Help->Install
New Software and downloading and unzipping directly.  I have verified that the
PyDev features and plugins directories are in /Applications/eclipse/features
and plugins.

I realized I was running the 64-bit version of Helios so I downloaded 32-bit
Helios, unzipped it into /Applications (moving old one out first) and have the
same result.  After installing PyDev, it doesn't show up in eclipse, even though
its files were installed.  I tried the same install with 32-bit Indigo, same
result, no PyDev perspective.

I can't believe I'm the only person this has ever happened to.   Thanks!

I'm not sure what may be happening... (seems like a permission issue for me,
but I may be wrong).

Do you have something in your error log? Is PyDev under the eclipse/plugins?
If you still cannot make it work, maybe a solution would be getting Aptana Studio
3 (where PyDev is pre-installed) -- you can get the standalone version from:
http://aptana.com/products/studio3/download

Cheers,

I also had this problem.
I eventually just downloaded the zip folder, unzipped and installed in the dropins
folder.
