Sorry for my english. I try change action bar collor. And i have this error:
error: Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name '@android:style/ Widget.AppCompat.Light.ActionBar.Solid.Inverse'.
I have minSdkVersion = 12

<style name="MyTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light">
<item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/MyActionBar</item>

<style name="MyActionBar" parent="@android:style/Widget.AppCompat.Light.ActionBar.Solid.Inverse">
<item name="android:background">#FF9D21</item>
</style>
</resources>

now style.xml looking that:
<style name="MyTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light">
<item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/MyActionBar</item>
</style>
<style name="MyActionBar" parent="@style/Widget.AppCompat.Light.ActionBar.Solid.Inverse">
<item name="android:background">#FF9D21</item>
</style>
in manifest:
android:theme="@style/MyTheme" >
i have error:
03-05 12:45:33.860: E/AndroidRuntime(2006): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.example.test6/com.example.test6.MainActivity}: java.lang.IllegalStateException: You need to use a Theme.AppCompat theme (or descendant) with this activity.

<style name="AppBarStyle" parent="@android:style/Widget.DeviceDefault.Light.ActionBar.Solid.Inverse">

I had this problem in my v21\styles.xml file.
Solution:
parent="Widget.AppCompat.Light.ActionBar.Solid.Inverse"

Try @style/Widget.AppCompat.Light.ActionBar.Solid.Inverse
instead .
On a side note, the styles.xml
file on appcompat_v7 suggests that @style/Widget.AppCompat.Light.ActionBar.Solid.Inverse
is deprecated. @android:style/Widget.DeviceDefault.Light.ActionBar.Solid.Inverse
is an alternative.
