Answer 1

I had the same problem after SDK update. In my case the solution was to remove 24.0.0-alpha1 folder from sdk/extras/android/m2repository/com/android/support/appcompat-v7 and to delete <version>24.0.0-alpha1</version> line from sdk/extras/android/m2repository/com/android/support/appcompat-v7/maven-metadata.xml

Answer 2

This worked for me.

In build.gradle of Project (not module) i changed the classpath.

It now looks like this

dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.3.0'

    // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
    // in the individual module build.gradle files
}

Hope it helps someone.

What i have did to work this fine is updated android studio to latest release and updated gradle.also did following changes in build.gradle

        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.3'

Answer 5

Try this cases if you really need 24.0.0-alpha1:

1. Replace

   compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.2'
   compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:23.2.1'
   

to

    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:24.0.0-alpha1'
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:24.0.0-alpha1'

2. Launch stanalone SDK manager and load Android N, API 23, N preview, after that you need replace

   compileSdkVersion 23
   

to

    compileSdkVersion 'android-N'

Tell me if it work for you too.
