C:\\Users\\Deepak\\Desktop\\New folder\\VishwasBawa\\res\\values-v14\\styles.xml:8: error: Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar'.

Answer 1

It looks like you're using the appcompat v7 library in your project. If you do, to resolve the error you've got, open project.properties file in your imported appcompat v7 project and change the target value to target.target=android-21 and save the file. Then, clean all Android projects. This should fix the errors in your Android project.

Note: Changing the target value to target.target=android-21 is equivalent to selecting the Properties of the appcompat project. Then, select Android | Project Build Target | Android 5.0.1 .
