Close the android studio and delete the c:\Users\xxx.AndroidStudioBeta\ (in my case)
Change the android sdk path name
Open the android studio, it will ask for the sdk path
Now you can change back the sdk path or using the new sdk path.
You will find Ctrl+Q will work fine. (Don't import old setting)
I think we need download the sdk document before set the sdk path to Android studio. But the Android studio should handle this case or give us a option to set it.
I meet the same issue too,but I solved it just now. I used the Android Studio with SDK before I solved it,and then I download a Android Studio Zip without SDK,and run it,and the issue disappeared.
You can try it.
I was having the same issue as you. Here's what fixed it for me:
Make sure you have the Documentation package downloaded in SDK Manager.
Exit Studio if it's running.
Delete the file named "jdk.table.xml" located in ~/.AndroidStudioX.Y/config/options/ (remember to take a backup first!).
Relaunch Android Studio. should work correctly now and it should regenerate the file automatically.
Note:
This worked for me on Ubuntu 14.04 & Android Studio 0.8.11 (EDIT: Several users are reporting this solution also works for newer versions of Android Studio).
If it still doesn't work, try deleting and re-downloading the Documentation package from inside Android SDK Manager then try the above steps.
If you're running Windows, the file is located at "%UserProfile%.AndroidStudio\config\options", and if you're running OS X, it's located at "~/Library/Preferences/AndroidStudio/options" (credits to @Gero and @Alex Lipov).
I also found this issue with Android studio 0.8.9 & 0.8.14, here's a simple solution:
File -> Invalid Caches/Restart -> Invalidate and Restart
Sometimes the documentation package may be missing or not up-to-date.
Try open the Android SDK manager(Tool->Android->SDK Manager) and install the 'Documentation for Android SDK' in the latest release, for now it's Android 5.0(API 21), then restart Android studio.
If this happens again, just invalidate the caches.
The problem is Android Studio does not automatically update the source link of reference even when the documentation is already downloaded.
The default link in jdk.table.xml is http://developer.android.com/reference/ (android studio tries to connect to this online server even if the network is blocked).
To solve the problem, we can just redirect the reference to local source.
MacOS
On MacOS, the config file jdk.table.xml is under
~/Library/Preferences/AndroidStudio<version>/options/, and the docs are here:
~/Library/Android/sdk/docs/, or the custom path of your Android SDK.
Then, in File -> Invalidate Caches / Restart… select Invalidate, and retry using Quick Documentation. It should display instantly. If it doesn't, select Invalidate and Restart, and you should be good to go.
As other answers said, it's because the Android Studio is trying to fetch the javadoc online (from http://developer.android.com/reference/), which will be very slow if the network not good, especially in China because google is blocked. So we should change this setting and let Android Studio fetch javadoc locally:
Download Android SDK Documentation using the Android SDK Manager.
Open the file ~/Library/Preferences/AndroidStudio2.2/options/jdk.table.xml, see notes below to make sure the correct file is edited.
In the file jdk.table.xml, replace all http://developer.android.com/reference/ to the path to your sdk reference folder. For example file://$USER_HOME$/tools/adt-bundle-mac/sdk/docs/reference on my Mac.
On OS X, if you have used several versions of Android Studio, there may be several configuration folders for each version (under ~/Library/Preferences/), you should change the jdk.table.xml in the right folder, in my case I should edit jdk.table.xml under the folder AndroidStudio2.2.
C:\Users\[your windows user name]\.AndroidStudio2.3\config\options\jdk.table.xml
Notes
"." before AndroidStudio directory
version number after ".AndroidStudio". Be sure to edit the version number of Android Studio you're currently using. Previous versions will still have directories here as well.
C:/Android/sdk/docs/reference replace with Android SDK location on your machine
if you're copy/pasting location from File Explorer, replace backslashes (\) with forward slashes (/)
Each installed Android SDK version will have its own docs XML entry
Edit the line above in each SDK version found in jdk.table.xml (if you want quick docs when targeting those versions in build.gradle). e.g. If you have Android SDK API 25 installed, you'd find a section to edit under <name value="Android API 25 Platform" />
The reason for me was that I had not downloaded sources for my SDK version defined by compileSdkVersion property in the build file (now called compileSdk in AGP 7.0.0).
So, in Android Studio 4.0 and higher do this:
Go to Settings 🡲 Android SDK 🡲 SDK Platforms tab 🡲 select Show Package Details checkbox at the bottom 🡲 under your target API Android section check the Sources for Android xx 🡲 click Ok and wait for the download to finish.
