Why is my device not showing in ADB devices?

On Android 5.0, go to Settings -> Storage -> menu -> USB computer connection and make sure 'Media device (MTP)' is disabled. When it's disabled 'adb devices' lists the device, when enabled not.

Why is the emulator not showing in Android Studio?

Probably the project you are running is not compatible (API version/Hardware requirements) with the emulator settings. Check in your build. gradle file if the targetSDK and minimumSdk version is lower or equal to the sdk version of your Emulator.

You can also try to :

 adb kill-server  adb start-server 

to restart the adb server. Maybe something went wrong with the adb-server. This happens a lot, and many such issues can be solved by restarting the server.
