Android Studio doesn't find com.android.support:support-v4:19.1.0

Question

I have imported one project into Android Studio but I got the error:

Could not find com.android.support:support-v4:19.1.0.

Where could I find this file? I have imported the project using Gradle.

I have the Android Studio version 0.5.7 the last android sdk and java 1.7u55.

Answer 1

Just add this code to you build.gradle file

dependencies {
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:19.+'
}

and press Tools -> Android -> Sync Project with Gradle Files

Gradle will download necessary files by himself

Answer 2

It does not work for me either. It works with 19.0.1 But if (I use gradle) I do this in my build.gradle:

repositories {
    def androidHome = System.getenv("ANDROID_HOME")
    mavenCentral()
    maven {
        url "$androidHome/extras/android/m2repository/"
    }
}

It finds the artifact.

Answer 3

From the SDK Manager, delete and re-install the Android Support Library 19.1 package.

Answer 4

I had this same problem with morning. I found the Jar file that I needed in /<MySdkFolder>/extras/android/support/ - in there are some sub folders with the different support libraries in them, so the last part of the path depends on which one that you want to use.

I just copied this into the lib folder of the project. I'm sure there is a more technical solution but it worked for me.

Answer 5

Following theory works at me:

Android Studio has problems importing support-v4:19.1.+ library when it comes through a transitive dependency.

Solution Adding support-v4 as own dependency and exclude this lib where it comes transitive. then i could not more see this import issue

Answer 6

Right clicking on the library and select the import as library option from the context menu works for me.

Answer 7

Try to go

Project Structure -> Dependencies -> Add : then select -> File dependecies

then select the proper library
