Answer 1

The keytool utility is not part of the Android SDK, but the Java JDK.

It appears you may not have your JDK bin/ directory in your PATH. While in a command-prompt, try browsing to the directory C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk#\bin (# is your jdk version installed) then running the command.

Note: If you are using jdk 1.7.0 you may need to add the -v option to keytool as it doesn't give MD5 by default, only SHA.
