These are the steps that I took and I successfully can run a calabash test on an Android device using Windows 7, 64 bit:

Install Ant (1.9)
http://ant.apache.org/

Install Ruby
http://rubyinstaller.org/
Install the 1.9.3 version (not the 2.0.0 or higher yet).

Install Ruby DevKit
http://rubyinstaller.org/downloads
https://github.com/oneclick/rubyinstaller/wiki/Development-Kit

Install Calabash
https://github.com/calabash/calabash-android/blob/master/documentation/installation.md

Be sure PATHs are set correctly. Be sure to follow the instructions given on the web-pages mentioned above.

Maybe your internet connection or the remote server were temporarily down, but it all should work.
