M1 MacBook Pro Android Studio Installation Issue - No SDK being downloaded

Viewed 5895

I am trying to setup Android Studio on my refurbished M1 MBP. I am getting stuck in Android Studio Setup Wizard where it is giving me an error. Another thing I notice is there is no Android/sdk directory created in my Library folder when I install Android Studio. So during installation, the sdk is not being downloaded. I have spent hours on this and haven't been able to find this scenario online. Shouldn't this just work out-of-box? What am I missing here?

I downloaded from https://developer.android.com/studio (Mac with Apple chip - android-studio-2020.3.1.25-mac_arm.zip)

Just download the IDE - Intellij IDEA and create a new project, select Android Project and there download Android SDK, now you can install android studio again and the sdk is installed. Worked for me!

As @bjjdroid suggested I have installed the Version Chipmunk Canary 3 which installed the SDK just fine. Afterwards I installed Arctic Fox again and it just used the SDK from the other installer.

I had the same problem

SOLUTION:

  1. download final version preview (no install)
  2. download java for your mac and install
  3. download JDK final version java for your mac and install
  4. download JRE final version java for your mac and install
  5. create in Users/USER_NAME/Library. Folders... "/Android/sdk"
  6. you can install android studio now.

NOTES:

*** first install of AndroidStudio.

*** if you install AndroidSutdio before java, SDK, JRE AND FOLDERS... is possible that this is not util
