Answer 1

Finally, after two days I found the solution. I just added:

implementation 'com.nineoldandroids:library:2.4.0'

Answer 2

Check the libs folder if they are present

Check with right click properties under android if your libs are added properly when it's an external lib or under build path if it is present

GL

Answer 3

Move all your libraries in lib folder under your app folder in android studio and then add its path in build.gradle dependencies.

for ex-

compile files('lib/volley.jar')

Answer 4

NineOldAndroids is deprecated. No new development will be taking place. Existing versions will (of course) continue to function. New applications should use minSdkVersion="14" or higher which has access to the platform animation APIs.
