AVD Manager - "No system images installed for this target." on API level 23

i need to test Google Maps Android SDK v2, so I downloaded fallowing SDKs:

Unfortunatly AVD is throwing message, that no images are installed. I tried to to move content of system-images according to many similar threads and it did't help.

My system-images structure:

EDIT: I reinstalled Mac and installed Android Studio (AS) and I found, that if I download Google API System Image with AS AVD, Standalone AVD found it broken. Same with Google API:

EDIT2: reported on code.google.com LINK

I would really appreciate if someone found solution.

After week I finally found a solution. Now I'm using AVD in Android Studio instead of Standalone AVD and it's working like a charm.

Broken Standalone AVD:

  • usually located there: ~/Library/Android/sdk/tools/android avd
  • [thread][https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=214557] I created on code.google.com
  • if you download system images / SDKs with Android Studio AVD -> Standalone AVD found it broken

enter image description here

Working Android Studio AVD:

  • command line access no longer supported - use tool in Android Studio Tools -> Android -> AVD
  • if you previously downloaded system images / SDKs from Standalone AVD, you should delete them and download them again via Android Studio AVD
