While the answer of loeschg is absolutely correct I just wanna elaborate on it and give a solution for all IDE s  Eclipse  IntellJ and Android Studio  even if the errors differentiate slightly     Prerequirements  Make sure that you ve downloaded the latest extras as well as the Android 5 0 SDK via the SDK-Manager       Android Studio  Open the build gradle file of your app-module and change your compileSdkVersion to 21  It s basically not necessary to change the targetSdkVersion SDK-Version to 21 but it s recommended since you should always target the latest android Build-Version  In the end you gradle-file will look like this   android       compileSdkVersion 21                 defaultConfig                          targetSdkVersion 21           Be sure to sync your project afterwards       Eclipse  When using the v7-appcompat in Eclipse you have to use it as a library project  It isn t enough to just copy the   jar to your  libs folder  Please read this  click  step-by-step tutorial on developer android com in order to know how to import the project properly   As soon as the project is imported  you ll realize that some folders in the  resfolder are red-underlined because of errors such as the following     error  Error retrieving parent for item  No resource found that matches the given name  android TextAppearance Material   error  Error retrieving parent for item  No resource found that matches the given name  android Widget Material    error  Error  No resource found that matches the given name  attr  android actionModeShareDrawable     Solution  The only thing you have to do is to open the project properties file of the android-support-v7-appcompat and change the target from target android-19 to target android-21  Afterwards just do a Project -- gt  Clean    so that the changes take effect     IntelliJ IDEA  not using Gradle   Similiar to Eclipse it s not enough to use only the android-support-v7-appcompat jar  you have to import the appcompat as a module  Read more about it on this StackO-Post  click    Note  If you re only using the  jar you ll get NoClassDefFoundErrors on Runtime   When you re trying to build the project you ll face issues in the res values-v   folders  Your message window will say something like the following   Error android-apt-compiler   appcompat   resource found that matches the given name  attr  android colorPrimary   Error  75  -1  android-apt-compiler   appcompat  C   Your Path  sdk extras android support v7 appcompat res values-v21 styles base xml 75  error  Error retrieving parent for item  No resource found that matches the given name  android Widget Material ActionButton      and so on   Solution  Right click on appcompat module --  Open Module Settings  F4  --   Dependency Tab  Select Android API 21 Platform from the dropdown --  Apply    Then just rebuild the project  Build --  Rebuild Project  and you re good to go

After creating a second project in the workspace in eclipse  I had this problem  I believe it is because I created it with a different SDK version and this ovewrote the android-support-v7-appcompat library    I tried to clean everything up but to no avail  Ultimately  the suggestion above to edit project properties and change target android-21 and set my project to Android 5 0  fixed it

This is likely because you haven t set your compileSdkVersion to 21 in your build gradle file  You also probably want to change your targetSdkVersion to 21   android                 compileSdkVersion 21      defaultConfig           targetSdkVersion 21                     This requires you to have downloaded the latest SDK updates to begin with      Once you ve downloaded all the updates  don t forget to also update the Android Support Library Repository  too   and updated your compileSdkVersion  re-sync your Gradle project    Edit  For Eclipse or general IntelliJ users  See reVerse s answer  He has a very thorough walk through

My problem was that I had other libraries that my project referenced and those libraries had another version of appcompat referenced  This is what I did to resolve the issue    You should back up your project before doing this   1  I deleted all the appcompat layout folders  ex   res layout-v11    2  Solved the problems that arose from that  usually an error in menu xml  3  Back to main project and add appcompat library  clean  and everything works

In case you don t want to use API 21 as the target API  and thus you don  t want to use the Material Theme  you have to use an older revision belonging to API 19    compile  com android support appcompat-v7 19 0      This also helps solving your problem  it only depends on what you want to achieve

I got the same error when I changed the Compile SDK version from API 21 to API 16  The problem was  appcompat version  If you need to use an older version of android API  so you have to change this appcompat version also  In my case  for API 16   I had to use appcompat-v7 19      So I replace dependencies in build gradle as follows   dependencies       compile fileTree dir   libs   include      jar        compile  com android support appcompat-v7 19        And make sure you have older versions of appcompat versions on your SDK

In Android Studio I was trying to set the compileSdkVersion and targetSdkVersion to 19   My solution was to replace at the bottom of build gradle  from this   dependencies       compile fileTree dir   libs   include      jar        compile  com android support appcompat-v7 21 0 3      To the older version of the appcompat library   dependencies       compile fileTree dir   libs   include      jar        compile  com android support appcompat-v7 19
