Im starting Android Programming so Im installing Android Studio.
When Im trying to run the wizard, I get an error: "Missing SDK"
I didn't download any SDK and I know that Android Studio can download and install SDK's itself.
Then, I click on Next to see what's happening:
I know this page should has a Todo list to download SDK's and it will download and install them if I click on "Next" Button.
Then, I click on "Next" and sadly I see this page:
So Why??! It should has a list of SDK's to download! but it hasn't!
If I click on "Finish" button, it should download and install SDK's normally, but it says "Nothing to do!" :(
I know I never downloaded SDK's! "Android SDK is up to date."??
Then, I looked for emulator and I downloaded it from developer.android.com original website.
emulator archive page of developer.android.com website
I extracted downloaded zipped file into C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk and I tried again.
I didn't see many differences, except in these pages:
(a warning in bottom)
(error fixed)
Sadly, I have the same problem yet.
Then, When I click on "Finish" button at last page (or when I close the Wizard Page any time) Program sends me to the Android Studio's Main Page! But I can't make a new project:
Then, I open the SDK Manager to fix this problem. So I will see another problem!! :(
Then, I click on Edit button to fix this problem:
It sends me to the previous page!!!! :|
You know that I dont have any SDK:
And I really don't know that why Android Studio says "Android SDK is up to date." :(
Can anyone help me please?
(As you can see, Im using Windows 11 in a x64 based cpu.)
To download Android SDK, you should use a VPN or set DNS.

After I restart my laptop, I have a problem with my project on android studio.
when I open android studio I see
that shows run btn is disabled. and my left menu is changed.
I confused with this problem.
and there is no "Android" option on dropdown ,
and this is my edit configuration view:
I found an answer that did repair my project.
there was an error on bottom right side of android studio that told "plugins are disable"
I clicked on it and another window opens then I checked options and press OK.
so after that it suggests to restart android studio.
the there was all right.
Excuse me for my English. I will thanks to some one that edits my answer to correct English.
Click here and select Android. Your run option will appear.
From My Sample project
I'm very new to Android programming, and I wanted to try learning by example. I found this open source project on Github: https://github.com/android/platform_packages_apps_contacts
I was hoping to open this in Android Studio so I could modify certain elements and see the result by running it, eventually learning how the process works as a whole. The problem is when I download the zip file and try to open the folder inside with Android Studio, nothing shows up. Any help would be appreciated!
In Android Studio, close all open projects until you get the "Welcome to Android Studio" screen. Choose "Check out project from Version Control", and in the popup, choose "GitHub". Screenshot:
Follow the UI from there.
Try to checkout it directly into Android Studio, VCS->Checkout from version Control->Git
Open all projects using:
Import project (Eclipse ADT, Gradle, etc)
I usually open my project that is saved in Google Drive in other computer, and the next option never work to me:
Open an existing Android Studio project
I always use the first option to avoid problems.
Use Open an existing directory in Android studio.
Navigate the project you wish to open to the directory containing such folders as:
manifest
java/src
res
...etc.
Now, Open.
By default, on Android Studio 2.2.2, when you open an existing Android Studio project, you land on an empty page showing only the name of your project on the top left (just below the open, save, refresh shortcuts icons) but side panels that contains your project structure and details are hidden.
You can open these panels either by pressing "alt + 1" as suggested on the background of the "starting IDE page" or by clicking on menu: "View" -> "Tool Buttons".
I installed (after unzipping) android-studio-ide-135.1224218-windows, hoping to be up and running a "hello world" program by now, but the IDE won't even start because "Your Android SDK is missing, out of date or missing templates." It tells me "You can configure your SDK via Configure | Project Defaults | Project Structure | SDKs" but when I do so, I see NOTHING in the text box for Android SDK location.
I searched for "android sdk" on my computer, and found C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-studio\plugins\android\lib\sdk-common.jar, but when I put that or C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-studio\plugins\android\lib into the text box, I get NO ERROR, but then I get the same message, and when I come back to the text box, IT DOESN'T HAVE WHAT I PUT INTO IT.
If I browse for the text box location, no matter what I put in, it says "Please choose a valid SDK directory".
That's the only "android sdk" on my computer.
I JUST installed Android Studio to C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-studio with no errors.
I have C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_60 as JDK location. It won't let me change it to C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_25.
I've Googled to see if I can download an android sdk from somewhere but found nothing.
WHAT DO I DO? I can't get into the IDE to try stuff.
sdk-common.jar is not the 'sdk' that Android Studio is looking for. You must download the sdk from SDK Manager and put it in the directory C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-studio\sdk.
This is what the sdk should contain:
sdk\build-tools
sdk\extras
sdk\platforms
sdk\platform-tools
...
I couldn't make use of the Answers above, so I uninstalled and then brute-force deleted EVERY trace of Android EVERYTHING.
Then I downloaded and installed installer_r23-windows.exe, putting the SDK manager out there BEFORE installing the Android Studio IDE. I allowed the default path: C:\Users\Dov\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk.
Then I downloaded and installed android-studio-bundle-135.1245622-windows.exe--NOTE: BUNDLE, NOT IDE. I used the default folder: C:\Users\Dov\AppData\Local\Android\android-studio.
And I STILL got the SAME ERROR. But at least THIS time I could go into SDK Manager, as the error message said to do.
What I found was that the CORRECT path to the JDK, which was the same path shown in the SDK Manager dialog for installing packages. So why the error?
LOOOOOOONG story short... as I tried to browse for the path, I noticed that the AppData folder WAS NOT SHOWING.
SOLUTION: TYPE THE PATH BY HAND. It worked.
I CHANGED NOTHING, except my approach.
As it happens, "The [AppData] folder is hidden by default in File Explorer, and has three hidden sub-folders: Local, LocalLow, and Roaming." See here.
I assume that was Android Studio's problem, but why typing it by hand changed all that is anybody's guess.
I guess it's not a great idea to have AppData part of the DEFAULT install path.
(BTW, I did NOT have to mess with ANY environment variables.)
=== EDIT ===
I reinstalled Studio and SDK Manager and the above did not work. What I did BOTH times was to TRY to drag the SDK Manager.EXE file into the browse dialog from an Explorer window; it didn't work either time, but I tried today and THEN found success.... So I guess this seems to be a necessary step.... I also added \ after sdk in the text box for the SDK path.... And I clicked Apply before OK.... I hate when stuff works seemingly randomly.... Just trying to save others the frustration. Maybe Google needs to address this.
I had exactly this problem. After downloading Android Studio from the developer site:
android-studio-ide-135.1538390-windows.zip
But kept getting the error: "Your Android SDK is missing, out of date or missing templates."
Wasted several hours, but eventually went to the "Installing the Stand-alone SDK Tools" page:
https://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/index.html?pkg=tools
And downloaded and installed installer_r23.0.2-windows.exe.
Then I added its location to Configure -> Project Defaults -> Project Structure
I can now create projects.
I was following the instructions, word-for-word, as on Android's website: http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/index.html
I already have Eclipse Juno on which I develop Java applications. For my coursework I need Android SDK. I followed the instructions till adding a new software and restarting Eclipse.
Then I got error messages saying:
sdk platform tools component is missing
They were two dialog boxes that went away when I clicked close. Very obvious :P
And in my Eclipse console I have this:
[2013-06-10 16:40:09 - DDMS] DDMS files not found: C:\Users\LittleJavaChild\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools\adb.exe
[2013-06-10 16:40:09 - DDMS] DDMS files not found: C:\Users\LittlejavaChild\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools\adb.exe
I have no idea what to do next.
Please help me set up the SDK.
Also, how do I remove the newly installed software if I want to repeat the steps on Android's site again ?
Click the little Android Android SDK button
And make sure the top 3 things are installed
i downloaded APIs 15,16 and 17. After the download is finished, I closed eclipse but when i open it again it gives me a message box saying I need to update my ADT from 21.0.0 into 21.1 or higher, (and my current project suddenly didnt work, and full of red lines). There is a "Check for Updates" button. But after clicking it, it says there was no update found. I asked Google and found out that there is already ADT 21.1 released. I am wondering if I should just download the latest ADT bundle, but also looking for a quicker solution. I said “quicker” because my internet connection is a bit slow. :( It will take me a whole day to finish the download. :( And also after i downloaded the API, my graphical layouts do not show any more. There is a message saying "Eclipse is loading the SDK. Home.xml will refresh automatically once the process is finished." I waited for eternity, but nothing shows up. Im pretty messed up here. My project does not work anymore, although it worked well before i downloaded the APIs. Can anyone help me?. Thanks.
Go to eclipse > help > Check for updates.
It should list the latest update of adt. If it doesn't work, try this :
go to eclipse > help > Install new software
Click on add
add this url : https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/
It will list the updates available- which should ideally be adt 21.1.0 (latest)
install the latest adt and everything should be fine.
The same thing happened to me, here's what I did-
Apparently, the SDK updated to version 21.1, but ADT, still at 21.0. 21.1 is currently a preview release (so I'm not sure how we accidentally updated the sdk...), so you have to manually add the update source. There's a nice guide (http://tools.android.com/preview-channel), but here's what you need:
Start Eclipse, then select Help > Install New Software.
Click the "Add" button, in the top-right corner.
In the Add Repository dialog that appears, enter "ADT Previews" for the Name and the following URL for the Location:
https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse-preview/
Click OK.
If you have trouble acquiring the plugin, try using "http" in the Location URL, instead of "https" (https is preferred for security reasons).
In the Available Software dialog, select the checkbox next to Developer Tools and click Next.
This worked for me, although I would rather have just downgraded the sdk.
Hope I helped!
go to window -> SDK manager and then install Android SDK Tools to 21.1 and then check for updates again.
I used to get error " update cannot be installed " for that run eclipse in Admin permission.
same with your problem !!!
btw, Thanks for the info ! I tried it after read this and wohooow It worked ! thx
go to eclipse > help > Install new software
click on add
