10,634 PointsSo, I did some digging around here in the forums, and found this answer from Sameer Khan: "Please ensure that your app activity extends "Activity" and not "ActionBarActivity". It fixed the problem!

29,119 PointsLook in the Android log. Search for "caused by" and see what the error says and on what line. You do not need to reinstall Android Studio, it won't change anything.

10,634 PointsI looked in the Android log, and it did say that the app.compat theme was causing the problem, but I didn't know how to fix it. I tried changing the theme, but that didn't work either. What worked for me, as mentioned above, make my app activity extend "Activity" and not "ActionBarActivity".
