Android Studio unable to run project on device?

Question

I am getting the following error. I couldn't find why this happens on the internet either.

Note:

My device Nexus that runs 5.0.2

My android studio is 1.0.1

My platform is mac mavericks

I am just trying to run the Login template app nothing more.

Thanks

Answer 1

adb kill-server

then

adb start-server

worked for me!

Answer 2

Restart your computer and check

If you are using Linux try to kill the port using

fuser -k 8601/tcp

If you are using mac try to kill the port using

lsof -P | grep '8601' | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill

Here is the ref for osx

Answer 3

You might have both Android studio and Eclipse open

• Close both the applications and open the one which you are going to use.

• if it didn't solve the problem the port is used by some other app so restart the system

• or else kill port using a command if the problem still remains unsolved
