Answer 1

I delete the support library in adt bundle and install it fresh. After copy and paste the support v4 jar and support-v7-recyclerview.jar in my project. Now its working fine for me.

Answer 2

Make sure your dependencies are up to date, I had the same problem and changed to this in my build.gradle file;

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:22.+'
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:22.+'
    compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:22.+'
}
