Issue
Lately I have been having more and more issues with the content assist in Eclipse. In some of my projects, I get no proposals from the content assist, and in other projects I get some or all of the expected proposals. Typically there is no "error" in Eclipse, but here is an example of one when I do get an error:
"Content Assist" did not complete normally. Please see the log for more information. Pb(324) The type android.support.v4.app.LoaderManager$LoaderCallbacks cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files
I have tried the various suggestions (including but not limited to the two below) from similar questions with no luck. I have even gone as far as removing and re-installing eclipse and re-creating the projects without any of the Eclipse metadata or settings.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Solution
I ended up upgrading the ActionBarSherlock library to the latest 4.1 (http://actionbarsherlock.com/) and it has fixed my eclipse troubles.
