Cannot Resolve Symbol IOUtils

I added the FileHelper.java and ImageResizer.java files . Then added the commons-io-24.jar file.

The line: import org.apache.commons.io.IOUtils;

claims it is unused and an error shows up where the IOUtils object is used.

I closed Android Studio last night and this morning the IOUtils is recognized. I am not sure what could have been done at the time I added the file (copied in), but there is an option to sync the file. That may be the ticket.
