If you're extending Activity just use setActionBar(). setSupportActionBar is for when your're using ActionBarActivity from the support library

Well it should work, if it doesn't then you're probably doing something wrong – freddieptf May 11 '15 at 12:33
setActionBar(toolbar); Call requires API 21 ,,,, I want to use it with all API – Maher Ismaail May 11 '15 at 12:37
You can't. You'll need to extend ActionBarActivity or AppCompatActivity and use setSupportActionBar to support the majority of the APIs – freddieptf May 11 '15 at 12:45
I give you a vote up For Helping ,, but i think there is another way – Maher Ismaail May 11 '15 at 12:50
@MaherIsmaail there is no other way. If you really wan't to support all version, you will have to make you're own Toolbar with you're own code. – Hugo Gresse May 11 '15 at 13:02
i mean there is a another way – Maher Ismaail May 17 '15 at 08:04

You have done little mistake .. you had to extend

ActionBarActivity

not only

Activity

class ..when you do error will be removed.
