Unable to resolve target 'android-17'

Question

I know there are some sort-of duplicates of this, but none of the answers have been able to help me so far.

When I open a project, I get the following error:

 [2014-01-07 14:18:00 - Permissions] Unable to resolve target 'android-17'

Does anybody know what may be the problem here?

Answer 1

You can right click on your project -> properties -> Android -> Select the Target android version you want to compile and Apply !

If you don't have any target versions to compile, you probably need to download them on your SDK Manager

Answer 2

1. Open your Android SDK Manager, and make sure your SDK API is installed

2. You might have several Android SDK folders installed, like me; check that your workspace build path is the one your machine defaults to.

Answer 3

You are probably trying to use a library that was built using API 17 and you do not have it installed. If you are using API 18+ you will be fine.
