So basically I can't find the option to install/download the Google Play Services in the Extras folder of the Android SDK Manager. What could be the possible reasons ? Meanwhile can somebody provide the link to download the lib from the Web ?
Quick fix: Go to the Tools –> SDK manager –> SDK tools. Deselect Hide obsolete packages option on the right bottom and further install Android SDK Tools(obsolete). A new folder named Tools is now generated in the SDK directory.
Google Play services powers a broad set of SDKs on Android to help you build your app, enhance privacy and security, engage users, and grow your business. These SDKs are unique in that they only require a thin client library to be included in your app, as shown in figure 1.
If you have downloaded the AS + SDK bundle: Note #2: you will never find the SDK in the Android Studio directory unless you have explicitly put it in there. The reason is that those directories might be deleted after installing a newer version of Android Studio and you would have to re-install the SDK as well.
I had the same problem and finally figured out a solution that worked for me. Here's what I did:
