Can't Find Theme.Appcompat.Light For New Android Actionbar Support

Can't Find Theme.AppCompat.Light for New Android ActionBar Support

You need to do next:

1. File->Import (android-sdk\extras\android\support\v7). Choose "AppCompat"
2. Project-> properties->Android. In the section library "Add" and choose "AppCompat"
3. That is all!

Note: if you are using "android:showAsAction" in menu item, you need to change prefix android as in the example http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/actionbar.html

No resource found - Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar

AppCompat is a library project. You need to reference the library project in your android project.

Check the topic Adding libraries with resources.

Update

Adding material theme should be the way. Check https://material.io/develop/android/docs/getting-started for more details.

Android - Action Bar doesn't show up using Theme.AppCompat

My answer should be as a comment but this is the only way I can reply.
Are you extending ActionBarActivity in your activity?
Have you tried the show() method in your activity?
