I ran the android studio quickstep instructions but it runs with the following error:
Error:Execution failed for task ':app:dexDebug'.

32,520 Pointshere's was the solution
i'm following the lesson for eclipse but i'm using android studio it says to drag and drop the parse.jar on the libs folder i did that but it did not behave the same as eclipse i then followed the start instructions from parse which are now not the same as the video thats when all hell broke loose
the solution was the comment the following
dependencies { compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar']) compile files('libs/Parse-1.11.0.jar')
compile 'com.parse.bolts:bolts-android:1.+'
//compile 'com.parse:parse-android:1.+'
}
