You should import Appcompat as a project, then in properties > android set it to a library (check islibrary), and don't forget to set the appropriate project build target.
After that go to your project and from properties > android add that project as a library

I have been trying to import appcompat-v7 into my app and have had no luck at all. I need this library in order to follow the steps listed here How do I use DrawerLayout to display over the ActionBar/Toolbar and under the status bar?. I have followed the steps documented https://developer.android.com/tools/support-library/setup.html, and when I add the library to my project, I'm getting a list of errors:

I have the build target to API 21 for android-support-v7-appcompat. When I clean that project, I don't receive any errors. When I add appcompat-v7 as a library to my project, that is where the errors start appearing.
I have checked my SDK manager and everything is up to date. Can anyone help steer me in the right direction where I can resolve this issue?

I'm following this tutorial to make and app with action bar for 2.3.x devices. But i cannot import appcompat-v7 to my projecto... It gives me lots of errors like these:

So i cannot import my app theme and my action bar is not shown...
In project.properties for Your project android-support-v7-appcompat Make sure target value as follow.
Project target.
target=android-21
android.library=true
once you done Clean your Project. I hope this works.
In project.properties of both your project and android-support-v7-appcompat (under res), comment out the target api if not target=android-21 and place the new target code there.
If this doesn't work, or you can't use 21+ api, make sure in your app's project.properties that android.library=false.
Next check your project's Referenced Libraries does not contain v4 in the buildpath. I believe I'm saying this correctly, that v7-appcompat required it (the previous version), but that it is included within the android-support-v7-appcompat file and thus the duplicate entries cause a problem.
I got this problem too. I found many solutions that you must update to Android 5.0 API leveL 21..you can see one of the solutions for updating all IDE. HERE
..
(Note : Following method is my second way solution for me.)
If you don't want to update, you can try existing API level..I found solution in my way is that when you create the new android application project, choose as follow
minSdkVersion= API 14 ,
targetSdkVersion=API 17 ,
compiled with=API 17
Hope, this will help!
I was creating my project using android 4.4, now I want to build it with android 2.3.3.
I got some errors in my style.xml that theme not supported.
To resolve this error I have imported the Sherlock Action Bar library. Now my style.xml error is resolved but I now get an error 'R' is missing from project
I have cleaned the project but it is not resolved.
Does anyone know how can I resolve this issue ?

Did you add ABS as a library to your project? The R file will not generate is there is an error in the xml from what i've experienced.
If you haven't added ABS as a library follow:
Right-click project in package explorer->Properties->Android->Under library click Add->Select ABS->Click ok-> should be good to go after that.
I'm making a new android app, and I am using the action bar sherlock library.
I imported the library as a project and got two errors.
First, all my layouts are not found in the gen.R file, because I have no gen.R file.
"R cannot be resolved to a variable"
Second, I read in some forums that a clean and rebuild can help, but this did not fix my problem. After a clean, I got this error:

This XML-Files comes from the ActionBarSherlock Library.
The Library as project didn't show an error.
Can anybody help me?
Make sure that your project and the imported library use the same Android version.
This is often related to the Android version your project uses, specifically if you import something that is a different version than your project.
For a walkthrough to fix the problem, see my answer here
The problem was not the Android Version it was the Java Version. Most of the Android library and also Android too, can not handle Java 1.7. I change my project properties and build my project under java 1.6 and it works. Same problem by HoloEverywhere.
Please note that to compile an android project successfully and to have it run on older version of android is (mostly) a different thing.
for your answer,
android:Theme.Holo is android Honeycomb and above theme. So ActionbarSherlock & your project must be compiled with (minimum) API level 11 (Android 3.0). Usually I just pick ICS (14+)
to have it run on older version of android:
open your project manifest file, change the line:
<uses-sdk android:targetSdkVersion="14"/>
to
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="7" android:targetSdkVersion="14"/>
Your android app can run from API level 7 (2.2) to API level 14 (4.0).
You can test by running it with 2.2 emulator.
Note that ActionbarSherlock doesn't run with API level lower than 7.
