Not a valid Android SDK error?

Post by cwkalish » Wed Dec 31, 2014 3:10 pm

Hi,
I am getting an error that the SDK location I set in the mobile support preferences is not valid. I get this both with the SDK I have used in the past (I think an upgrade to Livecode 7 and/or Yosemite blanked the preference?) and with the SDK installed in a new download of Android Studio. The SDK location from the new studio is in my user library/Android/SDK

The complete error says "The chosen folder is not a valid Android SDK. Please ensure you have installed it correctly, and enabled support for Android 2.2 (Froyo)."

Maybe it's the enabling 2.2 part I am missing?

Thanks for any pointers.

-Chuck

It was the Froyo. Looks like the download of Android Studio does not come with Froyo. It's now working after I added it from the SDK manager (API 8, I also loaded 10 and 11 to be safe).

I should have watched this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=83qrKr9bR3M
