Why android source file is all red in Android Studio

I made a basic application in Android Studio from guide
It works fine in emulator
But when I try to go to some sources, android.content.Context in particular it looks all red - half of imports are red 'Cannot find declaration to go' screenshot
Why is it so and how can I fix it making it black and look into android.annotation.AttrRes for example?
your Mapper 4.x is not supported in android studio that's y the modules are unable to import, I believe there is a setup problem, you should follow the steps from the below link
https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android-api/utility/setup
once done with setup make sure you are using the latest dependency of google maps
"compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:10.0.1'"

use intellij kotlin kt file in android studio

I have written a program using intellij and want to import the code into android studio but i can't find any tutorials that have this specifically.
I am only able to find using kotlin in andoid studio or convert from kotlin to java.
I know it will be easy and that I am not looking in the right places but could really do with a pointer, I have been trying to do it all day lol im starting to loose the will!
Thanks
Not sure if I understood your question correctly, but if you have a bunch of code files and wanna import your code into Android Studio, the easiest way is to just create a new Android Studio Kotlin project, copy your code files from your IntelliJ project to your new Android Studio project, then adjust the code for Android.
If you do it inside the programs instead of in the file explorer, it will even adjust the package names for you.
Here's what I mean exactly by inside the programs:
If you want to create an Android application with the code that you write in IntelliJ. You can create an app in Android Studio and paste the code in the right place(should be in onCreate method) and manage the way that you will show the result. Also you can create an Android application in IntelliJ with the Android plugin.

Android Studio referencing library seems overly complicated. Is there an easier way?

I'm trying to migrate to Android Studio from Eclipse.
In reading a simple example of using a library within another app:
https://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/studio-build.html
In eclipse to achieve this all I would go to the properties of the project and add a reference to the project. Simple, through the IDE and easy to check the build settings at a later date.
In Android Studio I've got to add an entry to my referenced library using ALT-ENTER after getting autocomplete to find the library, which seems to add an entry to the file 'app.iml':
<orderEntry type="module" module-name="app2" />
Then I've got to edit the gradle file:
dependencies {
compile project(":lib")
}
Is there not a better way, i.e. using the IDE. I don't particularly want to have to remember about this xml iml file or have to manually edit build files every time I want to do something.
?
Sorry,
After browsing for a while with no answer I found it just after posting:
How to create a library project in Android Studio and an application project that uses the library project
Why can't Google update their documentation to use the more normal way (presuming this dialog is a new addition)....
