These problem can be simply solved by closing Eclipse and restarting it again. Eclipse sometimes fails to establish a connection with the Emulator, so this can happen in some cases.

for eg:
This problem may occur if you have two devices connected to the computer at the same time. Adb does not support reaching both devices via command/console. So, if you debug your app after connecting and disconnecting the second device you will most probably have this problem. One solution might be restarting adb and/or eclipse if necessary. It can be quite annoying sometimes and I am afraid there is no other solution to that.

Also, If you develop in multiple IDE's or other programs that connect to AVD you should try closing them too.
