Could you help me? Unfortunately, I can't add screenshots.. There are screenshots: http://screencast.com/t/iNaWO9gy http://screencast.com/t/iBGTyMpgH

Project settings - Libraries - empty;

reimport didn't help;

Did you add the pom.xml to your maven projects in IntelliJ? If you did that you shouldnt see empty libraries since they should contain your .jar depentencies — zpontikas, Apr 09 '14 at 08:01
Have you tried opening the `Maven project` tool window and click on the `Reimport all maven projects` button? — Morfic, Apr 09 '14 at 08:03
Did you set the maven environment variable or did you set maven in the IDE settings? If not, Intellij will not find maven and sometimes screw thins up... — morpheus05, Aug 11 '14 at 19:25

Do the following steps:

Find your pom.xml in your files
Right click on it --> Maven --> Import
Wait for the project to load :D
Press ctrl+alt+shift+s (This opens the Projects window.)
Go to libraries and see if they are empty (they shouldnt)
If they are post your full pom.xml please so I can see the problem
If you still have a problem got to File --> Invalidate Caches /Restart
Go to maven and Reimport All Maven Projects

Now I have "Cannot reconnect. inspect maven model for resolution problems" on project element – yazabara Apr 09 '14 at 08:38
I've added full pom.xml file; – yazabara Apr 09 '14 at 08:48
there is this tag missing from your pom.xml: 4.0.0 – zpontikas Apr 09 '14 at 09:14
Doing Step 4 and changing the spring-core to 'compile' solved the issue for me. A mix and match of this answer with this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25488194/cannot-access-org-springframework-core-env-environmentcapable – nanospeck Nov 29 '14 at 10:57

There is no Maven menu if it's not already recognized as a Maven project. But if you right click the `pom.xml` there should be a `Add as Maven Project` option (or similar). It did the trick for me. – worldsayshi Mar 23 '18 at 12:12

Option Maven -> Reimport should force Intellij to reload all dependencies. Alternatively, as mentioned in comments you can click the Reimport All Maven Projects button in Maven Projects view.

In my case, I had my own apache-maven-3.5.2 folder and a misconfiguration created my problem. Maybe it's your case too:

In rush, I set the local repository to C:/my/folder/apache-maven-3.5.2/settings.xml, but it must be a folder so Maven didn't allow me to download the dependencies. Then I changed the default (in the picture) and it worked.

Open the module dependencies (press F12 on the module), go to Modules -> Dependencies and make sure maven imports are part of the of this.

This is the problem, you're missing your maven dependencies, click the green tick on the right and add the maven dependencies as a dependency of this module. – David Apr 09 '14 at 08:55

Try to import the project from sources, if this answer didn't help you.

The following worked for me.

Deleted the maven dependency from my local repository
mvn clean install downloaded the dependency again
File --> Invalidate Caches/Restart
I still saw the compilation error
on my mac, I hit option + enter, intellij asked me to add the jar to classpath
build -> make project

I had faced the same problem, and the issue was small. I had changed the location of settings.xml file of maven and Intellij was picking up the default from C:\users\.m2\settings.xml

So point your maven settings.xml to the correct file as below: File--> Settings--> Build, Execution, Deployment--> Maven then on the right window, override "User settings file" to the settings.xml where you have in your local disk.

If you have installed maven in a non-default location then this file you can find in: \apache-maven-3.2.3\conf\settings.xml
