Android Studio Error After Update

Question

I have just updated my Android Studio, then it asked if i would like to import my settings where I said no and started new as I wanted to start fresh. Then I have created a new project. On doing this in the mainactivity.java the R's are red in color. Also when i try running this Hello World program(default app that is made when creating the program) , 3 errors show up which are-

Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'android:TextAppearance.Material.Widget.Button.Inverse'.

Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'android:Widget.Material.Button.Colored'.

Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugResources'. com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException: org.gradle.process.internal.ExecException: Process 'command 'C:\Users \Kalyan\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\build-tools\23.0.0\aapt.exe'' finished with non-zero exit value 1

I am not sure what to do it would be real nice if someone could help me out. -Kalyan

Create new project -> Select Project Location. Care to be taken that there should not be any blank space in Project Location Path. – Mohammad Tauqir Aug 30 '15 at 06:04

I had the same problem when I ran updates. I first tried to sync project with gradle files, but that did not work for me. What did work was that I went to:

File -> Project Structure -> Modules: app (left column) -> Properties tab.

Under that tab you have both:

"Compile Sdk Version" 
"Build Tools Version"

I think one was version 23 or 22 and the other was version 21. Don't remember exactly. All I remember is that they didn't match. So I made them match. I set the "Compile Sdk Version" to 23 and the "Build Tools Version" to 23.0.1 and the problem was solved. So use which ever you want, I guess, 23 and 23, 22 and 22, etc.
