Answer 1

This seemed to work for me. I had to update the Default settings then restart the IDE:

1. File->Other Settings->Default Project Structure
2. Under Project Settings: Project, set Project SDK as Android SDK.
3. Click Edit button
4. For Android SDK, set Build target to Android 4.4.2
5. Click Ok.
6. Restart IDE
7. Then rebuild. Seemed to work after that..

This is assuming you've already installed Android-19 and still having difficulties.
