Cant build after adding com.android.support:appcompat-v7:22.1.0 in android

If I add 

 com.android.support:appcompat-v7:22.1.0

in my gradle build folder the app produces this error

 Error:Execution failed for task ':MyAPP:dexDebug'.
    > com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException: org.gradle.process.internal.ExecException: Process 'command '/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_71.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java'' finished with non-zero exit value 2

Any idea on how can I debug this? Thanks Here are more details on the gradle console output:

:SecretEscapes:dexDebug

Looks like you've reached 65K methods limit.

Try this:
- add new dependency to your build.gradle file

dependencies {
    ...

    compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.0'
}

- enable multidex in the same build.gradle file

defaultConfig {
    applicationId "yourId"
    minSdkVersion 15
    targetSdkVersion 21
    versionCode 1
    versionName "1.0"

    multiDexEnabled true
}

- add multidex support in your manifest.xml file

<application
    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:name="android.support.multidex.MultiDexApplication"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
    ...
