I'm not sure you have same issue with me, but my issue is I use a JDK 1.8 to compile the code, which not supported by android dx tools.

The fix is change the SDK path from 1.8 to a 1.7 JDK in Project's Module Settings.

Reference this for detail config in Mac: https://stackoverflow.com/a/24680375/1043032

This may occur because your have same jar referenced during building of project multiple time , may be that jar is already included some other module or library module.double check and make sure that this condition does not exist.

We have faced this kind of problem earlier.

Remove the v4 JAR file from your project/module jar directory as @rupps mentioned. Also remove your "excludes" piece from the configuration. Because you're using the the appcompat-v7 dependency, you will automatically pick up the v4 support library via Maven.
