I am very new to Github. I just created one github account and it says as bellow:

Step 1) 

Global setup:
 Set up git
  git config --global user.name "MyName"
  git config --global user.email MyName@gmail.com

Next steps:
  mkdir Java
  cd Java
  git init
  touch README
  git add README
  git commit -m 'first commit'
  git remote add origin git@github.com:MyName/Java.git
  git push -u origin master

Existing Git Repo?
  cd existing_git_repo
  git remote add origin git@github.com:MyName/Java.git
  git push -u origin master

Step 2) NetBeans IDE trying to setup the link as git@github.com:MyName/Java.git

Now it gives error as you can see above. How do i setup this?

Follow up: (above process did not worked)

$ create a project > cd /var/tmp/newproject
$ sudo git remote add origin git@github.com:me/newproject.git
$ ls -a
.  ..  build  build.xml  dist  .git  .gitignore  manifest.mf  nbproject  src

$ Open netbeans 
  > Automatically it detects 
  > origin:git@github.com:me/newproject.git 
    > press next 
      > local branch 
        > select master 
          > press next 
            > press finish
  Works!

    Open your terminal, enter your project root fold, and add your remote:

    $ cd path/to/your/projcet
    $ git remote add origin git@github.com:me/java.git

    I think it should detect your setting, then check how your IDE set your github repository.
