在清单中设置WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE权限时出错-未知属性android：name

Question

I'm developing an Android app with Android studio.

I've been trying to set some permissions into my manifest file in order to write some file to the external storage everything following the tutorial: http://developer.android.com/training/basics/data-storage/files.html

Here is my manifest file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="timetracker.iuandroid"
    android:versionCode="1"
    android:versionName="1.0" >

    <uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="14"
        android:targetSdkVersion="18" />

    <android:uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"
        android:maxSdkVersion="18" />
    <android:uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
    <android:uses-permission
        android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"
        android:maxSdkVersion="18" />



    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >

          ..... and some more tags .....

The problem is that manifest is telling me that "android:name" is an unknow attribute, and if I remove it, of course, it tells me that a name attribute is needed, so I can't create a new file in my app because of this permission problem

Is there somethign I'm missing? or something deprecated not shown at the tutorial?

I can't post Images due to my low reputation sorry but the error goes throgh every android:name= and android:name= tags

There seem to be multiple issues with your AndroidManifest file. First, a Java Package is usually declared like the following:

com.domain.package

So your declaration should be com.iuandroid.timetracker .

Secondly, the maxSdkVersion in in the wrong spot. This...

android:maxSdkVersion="18" />

should be in the <uses-sdk/> section, not between the permission tags. Your permissions are also declared incorrectly; it should be...

<uses-permission android:name="YOUR_PERMISSION"/>

instead of...

<android:uses-permission android:name="YOUR_PERMISSION"/>

Lastly, you are also missing a few closing tags. Your AndroidManifest.xml file should be as follows when formatted correctly:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="timetracker.iuandroid"
    android:versionCode="1"
    android:versionName="1.0" >

    <uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="14"
        android:targetSdkVersion="18"
        android:maxSdkVersion="18" />

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
