Android errors in project while using appcompat v7 - java

I used appcompat v7 before. But Have not face this problem. Here's what i do. I add appcompat to my workspace and then chose it as a library for my project. When I try to run my project first I receives errors in appcompat styles file. I changed project build target of appcompat to 5.1.1 ( errors are resolved in appcompat). Now I received R errors in my project. I changed my projects compile versions but nothings change. I faced the same errors. In my console , There are alot of errors like this.
D:\Eclipse\Android\android-sdk-windows\extras\android\support\v7\appcompat\res\values-v21\themes_base.xml:142: error: Error: No resource found that matches the given name: attr 'android:colorButtonNormal'.

I refresh , build and clean my project many times. But still having same issue. Anybody have any idea about this?
One more thing I also update my support library yesterday. Thanks

My guess is that you are not using the last AppCompat library. Try to update last version (com.android.support:appcompat-v7:22.1.0) of support library on the Android SDK Manager and import it to your project. The attribute 'android:colorButtonNormal' appeared starting from v21.

Error Occurred while importing android project from Eclipse to Android Studio

I'm facing the following error when importing my Android project from Eclipse to Android Studio.
Project Girls Hair Styles Selfie:D:\android\Girls Hair Styles
Selfie\project.properties:
Library reference ..\android-support-v7-appcompat could not be found
Path is D:\android\Girls Hair Styles
Selfie..\android-support-v7-appcompat which resolves to
D:\android\android-support-v7-appcompat
How can I fix this?
Send a complete code including Gradle.build file.
AppCompat is the newer version in Android Studio which was used as ActionBarSherlock(ABS) in Eclipse.
Make sure to import module ABS while building.
Since Eclipse did not have gradle files, there could also be some errors in the gradle configurations.
Update your question and send the Gradle as well as the Java file where Error is appearing.

Android - Eclipse project making and R file error

I'm having issue with Eclipse and I work in android. This issue happens when I create a new project and when I click finish, It auto generates the project without R file and The project creating window doesn't closes and I have to close it. I have many old projects which work fine(Until now) and the issue is only coming when I make a new project. I also get a error in Styles.xml file saying that "Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'Theme.AppCompat.Light'". When I press CTRL+RightClick onto R file then it takes me to a window which says "Source Not Found". If you have any solution for this, Please post your answer under this question. Thank you!
EDIT: Appcompat error was solved later.
To solve missing R in generated java files, make sure that Android SDK Tools and Android SDK Build-tools are installed and updated in SDK Manager. Then, make sure Eclipse is updated. After this, clean your project and rebuild.
To solve No resource found "...AppCompat...", make sure Android Support Library is installed and updated in SDK Manager. Then, the AppCompat library can be found at:
android-sdk/extras/android/support/v7/appcompat
You need to reference this AppCompat library in your Android project.
Import the library into Eclipse. To do so:
Right click on your Android project. Select properties. Click 'add...' at the bottom to add a library. Select the support library. Finally, Clean and rebuild your project.

Android: Eclipse : Project could not build due to cannot delete v-7appcompat

I have created an Android application API 21 using Eclipse luna. I have only API 21 installed on my pc. Initially I faced error of "could not find resource......" for which I found that I got to add support library v7-appcompat. Tried various ways to add the jar, nothing worked. So finally I added the appcompat project to my project. That solved that error.
Then on re-start Eclipse got new 3 errors - Unable to load API 19... (something like this) in appcompat project. In appcompat project int project.properties I changes the target API from 19 to 21. That solved 2 errors.
Now the 3rd error, that I am not able to solve :
Description Resource Path Location Type
The project was not built due to "Could not delete '/android-support-v7-appcompat/bin/classes/android'.". Fix the problem, then try refreshing this project and building it since it may be inconsistent android-support-v7-appcompat Unknown Java Problem
I deleted v4-appcompat from my project/libs folder. But yet no results. The /libs & /Android Private Libraries in appcompat both contains v4-appcompat & v7-appcompat.
In my project, I found in /bin/dexedLibs their are 3 jars - android-support-v4-c7810708df94d8bfa4383f5149ab5d83.jar, android-support-v7-appcompat-892bfc35ccacd9325da1c2c80a3f3acb.jar, android-support-v7-appcompat-c13bc4563c36037596e53cd84b2614f2.jar
Can you let me know what is the problem and how should I solve it.
Any help is highly appreciated. I am in hurry to start working on the project.
Thanks
Try creating a new project: Eclipse Luna should create automatically (if not already there) a library project called appcompat_v7 when creating a new project. Also automatically a reference to the library project appcompat_v7 is added to the new project. At that point it is ready.

no resource found in eclipse

I am getting this error while creating a new android application project in eclipse Juno in mac.
Description Resource Path Location Type
error: Error: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'theme' with value '#style/AppTheme'). AndroidManifest.xml /testProject line 10 Android AAPT Problem
Also it is not creating a mainactivity as it used to do before. Recently I've upgraded android SDK tools to rev 24.0.1.
Kindly help me.
To fix this issue follow these steps.
Update ADT plugin of eclips
Make sure that AppTheme is defined in the styles.xml file.
Use latest AppCompat library if you consider backward compatability.
Make sure that your compiling and target versions are set to
21. Its because the new AppCompat only compiles on 21.
Right click the project and click "Properties". Then select "Android" from the tree on the left. You can then select the target target version on the right.
Note: Make sure your properties, classpath and project files are writable otherwise it won't work

Error in Eclipse Juno

Goodafternoon community! total beginner here. I am developing my first android app and have downloaded all what is required in running Eclipse Juno as well as files from SDK manager. But when I'm creating a new Android Application Project I encounter a couple of errors already.
It says,
Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'Theme.AppCompat.Light'.
(^in red)
AND...
WARNING: unable to write jarlist cache file C:\Users\Nokia\thesis2\appcompat_v7\bin\jarlist.cache
(^ in black)
Can anyone help me. Thank you very much everyone! :-D more power to you guys!
You should add support v7 library in your project. If you are not installed it using SDK manager,
Android developer site will help you.
After that the AppCompat Can be found at
android-sdk/extras/android/support/v7/appcompat
You need to reference this AppCompat in your android project.
Import the library to eclipse.
Right click on your android project.
Goto Properties.
Select Android.
Click Add Library and reference the same.
Clean and Rebuild your project
