I have resolved it by deleting android-support-v4 jar from my Project  Because appcompat v7 already have a copy of it    If you have already import appcompat v7 but still the problem doesn t solve  then try it

This issue may also occur if you have multiple versions of the same support library android-support-v4 jar  If your project is using other library projects that contain different-2 versions of the support library  To resolve the issue keep the same version of support library at each place

Another way to solve the issue   If you are using the support library  you need to add the appcompat lib to the project  This link shows how to add the support lib to your project   Assuming you have added the support lib earlier but you are getting the mentioned issue  you can follow the steps below to fix that    Right click on the project and navigate to Build Path   Configure Build Path  On the left side of the window  select Android  You will see something like this       You can notice that no library is referenced at the moment  Now click on the Add button shown at the bottom-right side  You will see a pop up window as shown below       Select the appcompat lib and press OK   Note  The lib will be shown if you have added them as mentioned earlier   Now you will see the following window       Press OK  That s it  The lib is now added to your project  notice the red mark  and the errors relating inclusion of support lib must be gone

andorid-support-v4 jar is an external jar file that you have to import into your project    This is how you do it in Android Studio   Go to File -  Project Structure   Go to  Dependencies  Tab -  Click on the Plus sign -  Go to  Library dependency    Select the support library  support-v4  com android support support-v4 23 0 1     Now to go your  build gradle  file in your app and make sure the android support library has been added to your dependencies  Alternatively  you could ve also just typed  compile  com android support support-v4 23 0 1   directly into your dependencies   instead of doing it through the GUI      Rebuild your project and now everything should work
