intelliJ IDEA 13 error please select Android SDK

Question

I have installed Android SDK 22 3 and JDK 1 7 update 21 on Win7 x64  Now I created an empty android application project using intelliJ 13 0 1  also use Emulator as target device  and tried to build the project  but encountered the  Error  Please select Android SDK    So I choose Emulator as the Target Device  but I could not select my AVD  as there is a Error  Cannot find any configured Android SDK   In the Project Structure  it clearly shows  Android 4 4 2 platform  as Project SDK  So I am totally confused  don t know how to resolve the issue   ps  I was upgrading intelliJ 12 1 2 to intelliJ 13 0 1  and all the settings were automatically inherited from 12 1 2 when launching 13 0 1  but it seems not all the settings were exactly copied over to 13 0 1  which is unexpected     cheers

I had the same problem as you did when I also updated from intellij Idea 12 to 13  In my situation  my Android SDK s Build target wasn t recognized properly  it said something like  Not set  in red instead Android 2 2  Even though I chose Android 2 2 and clicked apply and OK  it showed the  Not set  message again when I reopened the project structure dialog   Then I chose an other version  Android 4 0 this time  clicked apply  then chose Android 2 2 again  clicked apply  This worked for me

I encountered this error after installing Intellij IDEA Ultimate 14 1 and opening an existing Android project I had created using Android Studio  It turns out I just had to add the Android SDK to my list of SDKs and fix the project module SDK settings  This is how I did it   Go to File - gt  Project Structure  Click on the Project tab under Project Settings  Under Project SDK click on New - gt  Android SDK      Now select the existing directory for your Android SDK  In my case it was in this folder   C  Users  lt windows username gt  AppData Local Android android-sdk  Click Ok  A menu pops up asking you to set the Java SDK   Build target  You can either change these or leave it as its defaults and hit Ok  You should now see  Android API XX Platform  in the Project SDK dropdown  Click apply on the bottom  Then go to the Modules tab under Project Settings and click on the folders in the modules listing      For each folder go to the dependencies tab and change the Module SDK to the new Android SDK and click apply  Then click Ok to close the Project Structure dialog   After doing the above  my project was fixed

Seems a lot like IDEA can t find the Android SDK   Have restarted the computer after using the Android SDK Installer   After that  have you started the SDK Manager to install the Android 4 2 2 SDK   Can you check the Android SDK HOME environment variable     Take into account that the Android SDK Installer just installs a Manager  After that  you have to install an SDK  or several    Also  when you see  Android 4 4 2 platform  in the Project Structure  that means that the project will ask for that SDK  It doesn t mean that the SDK has been installed

check if you have installed all the add-ons that are necessary   Also I recommend you to use a real android phone for debugging  It s better  It s real and faster
