I’m trying to change an Android app to use ActionBarSherlock. I added the library and set everything up (I think) correctly. But when I try to run the app I run into a bunch of errors, not with the app itself but with the ActionBarSherlock sources.
Here’s what it’s saying:

I’m really not sure what’s going wrong, since it doesn’t seem to be anything that I did but rather a problem with ActionBarSherlock itself. What should I do?
Also I’m using IntelliJ IDEA to create and build the project. And the project itself is a library project with two different versions so I can support a free and paid version of the app.
1) Did you add the ActionbBarSherlock in your project correcly?
2) Is your project buid target >= Android 3.0 ?
3) Are you using the android support librairy in your project? If so please remove it because it is already in the ActionBarSherlock librairy
4) Each time you try to include the ActionBarSherlock into your project be sure to do steps 1,2,3 and clean those projects frequently if you see any “x” and “!” marks on both projects
