Error android studio, error: Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'android: Theme.Holo.Light'

At some point you refer to the Holo theme, parent="@ android: style / Theme.Holo" but to use it you need to set the API level to 11 in your manifest. You should also put the style.xml that makes use of holo within the values-11 folder.

See this: link

It would be best if you post your Styles.xml here. Probably the level of your API is below 11, the Holo theme is only available from the API 11.

Increase the level of your API or remove the "Holo".

"android:Theme.Light"
