My new Win 7 TI Studio install does not recognize Android SDK is installed.

Followed all setup steps very carefully.
Uninstalled and re-installed Android SDK after discovering issue regarding spaces in C:\program files. Modified the path and %android_sdk% values. Verified.

I can run Android virtual device "titanium_7_HVGA" straight from AVD Manager.

When attempting to set TI Studio preference "Android SDK Directory", by browsing to the folder, "C:\Android\android-sdk", the drop down list "Default Android SDK" is blank and an error is displayed: "Could not locate the Android SDK at the given path". Grrrr...Any ideas? Would bad GIT install cause this? Just trying to run a new simple mobile project.

Solved my own problem! I began looking at androidsdk.py (although I don't speak .py). I found the logic that identifies the SDK location.

//---------------------------// def find_platform_dir(self): .. .... ...... raise Exception("No \"%s\" or \"%s\" in the Android SDK" ...... //---------------------------//

Open TI Studio, Help > Titanium Studio > View Log File. The log file shows [Exception: No "android-7" or "android-2.1" in the Android SDK]. GASP!!! I only installed Android SDK 2.3.3 API 8 --> SDK 3.2 API 13.

To resolve problem: Open Android SDK Manager and installed ANDROID SDK 2.1-update1 API 7. Using TI Studio open preferences and browse to SDK folder. Now ALL ANDROID SDK versions appear in drop down list and the app runs in the emulator! ...WooHoo! Thanks Me!

in your android-sdk/platforms folder do you have an android-7 folder? If not, create one, see if that doesn't resolve the problem. I vaguely remember there being a problem with the installer/check scripts if that api target was missing (even if you never target it)

Also, be sure in that dialog, you select the parent folder of platforms. Sometimes zips/installers like to put stuff multiple directories below where you intended. In your case, is platforms at (c:\Android\android-sdk\platforms)?

I had the very same error message but a different underlying problem (Win7 32bit). I had all the SDKs installed (4,7,10,13) and all folders were at the right place. But still I got the error.

The problem in my case was that I had put the value of the environment variable ANDROID_SDK into quotes "C:\Android\android-sdk". So the above mentioned androidsdk.py was looking for the folder "C:\Android\android-sdk"\platforms\android-7 which fails.

Removing the quotes from the PATH and ANDROID_SDK variable solved the problem.

had the same problem - ts could not locate android sdk on windows 7.

tried everything suggested here. nothing worked.

my config:

-- win 7 64 bit;

-- android sdk (3-14 levels);

-- titanium sdk 1.7.3

---

found solution for my case:

-- opened ti log file and saw: DEFAULT_API_LEVEL is not defined;

-- opened file androidsdk.py (in my case, which is default installation, it is C:\Users\<my user name>\AppData\Roaming\Titanium\mobilesdk\win32\1.7.3\android);

-- added one line of code right under import statements:

DEFAULT_API_LEVEL = 7

-- opened ts again, and - YESSSS - ts did recognized the SDK!

hope it helps...

Solved in Windows 7 with this suggestion. Ensured the value of ANDROID_SDK variable was set at the correct path, which in my case is: C:\Android\android-sdk (I recommend not using Default installation path which can lead to another issues with the ADV for it being a long name with spaces in it. ej: Program Files)

Solved in windows 7 by creating an android-7 folder my android-sdk/platforms folder.

On Windows 7 I was missing my c:\windows\system32 so xcopy was not found....

Wow, it blows my mind that anyone can release software that has not been tested. I'm dumbstruck that 7 months after the issues were picked up by other people, they were still not fixed.

Please ensure that your Windows system PATH is correct. See the xcopy is not recognized as an internal or external command part of the Installation Troubleshooting guide.
