If you are using Eclipse:

Project > Clean > OK
Or Try:

Preferences -> Android Lint Preferences
Search for Instantiatable and set as Warning.

This worked for me.

That would be an Android Lint Checks

Instantiatable

Summary: Ensures that classes registered in the manifest file are instantiatable

  • Priority: 6 / 10
  • Severity: Warning
  • Category: Correctness

Activities, services, broadcast receivers etc. registered in the manifest file must be "instiantable" by the system, which means that the class must be public, it must have an empty public constructor, and if it's an inner class, it must be a static inner class.

Make sure its setting is set to Warning (or to Ignore) for your v7-appcompat library.

You can restart Eclipse and it will be fine. Or you may try to Go to Window->Preferences->Android Now find your SDK location (most likely: C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk-windows). Click apply.
