What are the steps for that? where is AppCompat located?

Download the support library here:

http://developer.android.com/tools/support-library/setup.html

If you are using Eclipse:

Go to the tabs at the top and select ( Windows -> Android SDK Manager ). Under the ‘extras’ section, check ‘Android Support Library’ and check it for installation.

After that, the AppCompat library can be found at:

android-sdk/extras/android/support/v7/appcompat

You need to reference this AppCompat library in your Android project.

Import the library into Eclipse.

  1. Right click on your Android project.
  2. Select properties.
  3. Click ‘add…’ at the bottom to add a library.
  4. Select the support library
  5. Clean and rebuild your project.
