Buongiorno Samuele,

do this:
1. open "Android Studio"
2. Go to its "Preferences" and click "SDK"
3. Then check "Show Package Details" at the bottom right of that window.
4. Check all "Android SDK platform xxx" and "Sources for Android xxx".

5. Click "SDK Tools" and check all neccessary tools, see screenshot

6. Wait for the download to be finished, quit "Android Studio" and try again
to set the SDK folder in LC.

See screenshots...
That has worked for me on my Mac.

Best

Klaus

Will move this thread to the Android forum...

[Samuele]

thank you very much! It worked

[Samuele]

hi! sorry to bother, but now when i try to save it as a standalone it gives me this error: "there was an error while saving the standalone application could not compile service support class"
what is the problem?
thanks.

[Samuele]

and this.

[Klaus]

Not sure, but in the "Standalone Application Settings" for "Android" you have selected "Sign with my key"
but you did not select a key file.

If you don't have any certificate or key file(s) select "Sign for development only" from that menu.

[Samuele]

i tried and it gives me me the same error.

Did you include all the SDK tools? Your Android Studio screenshot only shows the SDK platforms. The second tab is the SDK Tools and you need those to build a standalone. See the last image Klaus posted.

[Samuele]

yes I've downloaded what's shown in the last image that klaus posted, like 31.0.0 ... are there others i need to download that are not shown in the image?
thamks.

What version of Java did you install? You need Java 8.

[Samuele]

thanks to y'all i've found the problem! (For Mac)
the sdk was all right as Klaus posted in previous posts, the problem was the jdk, although livecode's website redirects you to the newest jdk, you shall not download the newest jdk (17... at the time of this post) but you'll need to install this version: jdk-8u251-macosx-x64.dmg
thanks!

My 2¢ and a new wrinkle.
Have Android testing working.
Installed jdk-8u311-macosx-x64
Installed Android Studio per Klaus' recommendation.
Works BUT.... the JDK path does not show in the Mobile Support pane.

If this happens to you... don't worry about it?
