I had a similar problem. I found out the problem was if I had other devices/emulators connected to the adb already, the "adb connect " command would give me the "No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it" message.

The solution is to make sure all the other devices/emulators are disconnected (either physically disconnect or quit the emulator application) before running adb connect . You can then reconnect your other devices (if you need them reconnected). A total pain.

Your mileage to this solution may vary depending on your problem.
