Im having a issue with the latest developer tool announced at Google i/o 2013 "Android Studio". I have successfully installed the program and am able to launch just fine. I can import exsisting projects and edit them just fine. However when i attempt to click the SDK Manager icon or the AVD Manager icon, Or when i attempt to create a new project. I get the following error "Please specify Android SDK" Now, I have already gone into File > Other Settings > Default Project Structure > under "Platform Settings" SDK's . I have created a Android SDK item with the source to my Android SDK folder.

Therefore i don't understand why Android Studio doesnt recognize it. The only thing that im doing somewhat different is not using the included sdk folder in the actual Android Studio folder. However when trying it, it says its not a real SDK home.

Any idea's, Thanks in advance

Try updating your Android SDK to r22 http://dl.google.com/android/installer_r22-windows.exe

I had the same issue, once I updated to the latest SDK, Android Studio was able to find the android-sdk folder.
