.apk launcher and framework setup

So I added the 2 .apk files to my install directory:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools

Then I Shift + Right Click to open a command window.

 I then type the adb install -r ouya-framework.apk command and it runs...

It gives me some daemon prompt text and says waiting for device of something. How do I know this worked. Sorry I'm a total infant. Any help would be great!

    Did I install these .apk's correctly?

    You must either be running an Android emulator or have a recognized Android device plugged in before running these commands.

    If you run adb devices, it will print out whether a device was detected:
    C:\>adb devices
    List of devices attached
    emulator-5554   device
    015d456d7e081c06        device

    Installing should look something like:
    C:\>adb install -r yourgame-debug.apk
    1258 KB/s (30889856 bytes in 23.966s)
            pkg: /data/local/tmp/yourgame-debug.apk
    Success

    Thanks for the help!! I have setup an Ouya emulator using the Virtual Device Manager. I guess I miss-understood what these files were used for. I'm kinda new to this stuff. Any clarification would be great. The documentation is confusing, I thought I had to run these as part of the setup for my work environment. What do these files do, and how do I use them?

    The framework and launcher are actual Android applications.  They're installed to and run on the Android device, whether it's an emulator, phone, tablet, or the OUYA console itself.  The launcher is what you see when you power up an OUYA console.  It lets the gamer log in, displays available games and apps, and provides menus to access account information and settings.

    Anyone else having issues installing these apps? I'm getting parsing errors. I have a feeling they aren't built for ICS.

    They're built for 4.1.2, API Level 16.  I had no trouble installing them on an emulator configured with those settings.  Won't run on ICS, or at least I wouldn't expect them to.

    after installing HAX (/Applications/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64/sdk/extras/intel/Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager) no message comes up anymore...

    BUT my Ouya can't be found on Mac. It does not connect via USB
