Cordova 3.5.0 Install Error- Please Install Android Target 19
android, cordova, macos
Solution
Android SDK is not your target Android version. Target Android version 19 is the API level for android Kitkat.So in you SDK manager check if you have Android 4.4.2(API 19) installed. If you want your target API version to be different then change it in ANdroidManifest.xml
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="16"
android:targetSdkVersion="18" />
Edit these lines. Here `android:targetSdkVersion` is your Android version that you are targeting.
Problem
I try to get this working and it's driving me nuts: ``` $ cordova platform add android ``` The output is: ``` Creating android project... /Users/doekewartena/.cordova/lib/android/cordova/3.5.0/bin/node_modules/q/q.js:126 throw e; ^ Error: Please install Android target 19 (the Android newest SDK).
