Project ActionBar Error After Google Play Service Update

Question

I have the following error after updating Google Play Services:

[2015-12-19 10:58:19 - google-play-services_lib] C:\Tools\Android\sdk_24\extras\google\google_play_services\libproject\google-play-services_lib\res\values-v11\appinvite_styles.xml:5: error: Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name '@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light.DialogWhenLarge.NoActionBar'.
[2015-12-19 10:58:19 - google-play-services_lib] C:\Tools\Android\sdk_24\extras\google\google_play_services\libproject\google-play-services_lib\res\values-v21\appinvite_styles.xml:5: error: Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name '@android:style/Theme.Material.Light.DialogWhenLarge.NoActionBar'.

Styles.xml:

<resources>

<!--
    Base application theme, dependent on API level. This theme is replaced
    by AppBaseTheme from res/values-vXX/styles.xml on newer devices.
-->
<style name="AppBaseTheme" parent="android:Theme.Light">
    <!--
        Theme customizations available in newer API levels can go in
        res/values-vXX/styles.xml, while customizations related to
        backward-compatibility can go here.
    -->
</style>

<!-- Application theme. -->
<style name="AppTheme" parent="AppBaseTheme">
    <!-- All customizations that are NOT specific to a particular API-level can go here. -->
</style>

I had already imported appcompat_v7. Everything was working fine before the google play service import.

I didn't make a backup and use SDK manager, did you manually download the older version? – user3560827 Dec 19 '15 at 09:36

not a good choice to permanently avoid updating libraries. This will get fixed and you should keep trying once in a while and see if it has been. Otherwise you will miss out on other important enhancements. – Viral Patel Dec 19 '15 at 10:18
