Answer 1

Finally, after two days I found the solution. I just added:

implementation 'com.nineoldandroids:library:2.4.0'

Answer 2

Move all your libraries in lib folder under your app folder in android studio and then add its path in build.gradle dependencies.

for ex-

compile files('lib/volley.jar')

Answer 3

NineOldAndroids is deprecated. No new development will be taking place. Existing versions will (of course) continue to function. New applications should use minSdkVersion="14" or higher which has access to the platform animation APIs.
