Android Dx Error1, Failed to convert to Dalvik format
Solution 1
The problem is that the jar you are including has a class in the java.* or javax.* namespace. dx does not allow this, as mentioned in the last big error message.
If you actually need these classes, you'll need to move them to a different package, using something like the jarjar tool. Otherwise, you'll need to remove them from the jar -- it may be possible to have proguard to remove them before everything gets dx'd, I'm not sure.
Solution 2
I faced the same problem, I finally resolved it by exporting my private library explicitly.
Like: Project >> properties >> Java Build Path >> Libraries >> Add External Jars.
Note: Removed my all private libraries from libs folder. I know it is not correct but it worked for me.
Thanks, Anil

Do as follows :
project
> properties
> java build path
> libraries
> remove all including android jars
Now, go the project browser, right click on the project you are working on, then
android tools
> fix project properties.
Do a clean and then build.
Just restart eclipse, and the error won't occur anymore

If you work on Win7 change this line:
call %java_exe% -jar "%PROGUARD_HOME%"\lib\proguard.jar %*
in proguard.bat
file to this:
call %java_exe% -jar "%PROGUARD_HOME%"\lib\proguard.jar %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
proguard.bat
is in:
[Android SDK Installation Directory]\tools\proguard\bin\proguard.bat
Edit:
I hope a combine of these help you:
1-Try to delete libraries projects
from your project.
2-Try to export your project(as archive file),delete project and it's source from workspace and then import it again.
3-Try to remove your jars from path,do clean-build and then add them again to your project.

I had the same error when using my own obfuscated lib jar.
my log:
warning:Ignoring InnerClasses attribute for an anonymous inner class that doesn't come with an associated EnclosingMethod attribte.This class was probably prouduced by a compiler that did not target the morden .class file format...
And I solved it like this:before I obfuscate my jar,I added "-keepattributes EnclosingMethod" to the proguard.cfg(or proguard-project.txt in latest android adt version).

I'm getting desperate with this Problem: I want to export/run my Android Application with one additional
.jar
I added to the buildpath. I'm sure I added it correctly, there are 5 other .jars included and they all work fine.with this special one I get the mentioned error. I've already tried everything that can be found in this question: "Conversion to Dalvik format failed with error 1" on external JAR
and several other links google spat out. The main Problem is, I actually do not understand what the message I appended want's to tell me because if I add all the jars to a "normal" javaproject, it runs perfectly fine...
Developing on Android 4.0.3,
proguard 4.8,
adt 16.0.1.v201112150204-238534,
eclipse 3.7.1.r37
please help me
[2012-07-18 10:45:48 - myapp] Dx warning: Ignoring InnerClasses attribute for an anonymous inner class (iaik.xml.crypto.XSecProvider$1) that doesn't come with an associated EnclosingMethod attribute. This class was probably produced by a compiler that did not target the modern .class file format. The recommended solution is to recompile the class from source, using an up-to-date compiler and without specifying any "-target" type options. The consequence of ignoring this warning is that reflective operations on this class will incorrectly indicate that it is not an inner class.

Ill-advised or mistaken usage of a core class (java.* or javax.*) when not building a core library.
This is often due to inadvertently including a core library file in your application's project, when using an IDE (such as Eclipse). If you are sure you're not intentionally defining a core class, then this is the most likely explanation of what's going on.
However, you might actually be trying to define a class in a core namespace, the source of which you may have taken, for example, from a non-Android virtual machine project. This will most assuredly not work. At a minimum, it jeopardizes the compatibility of your app with future versions of the platform. It is also often of questionable legality.
If you really intend to build a core library -- which is only appropriate as part of creating a full virtual machine distribution, as opposed to compiling an application -- then use the "--core-library" option to suppress this error message.
If you go ahead and use "--core-library" but are in fact building an application, then be forewarned that your application will still fail to build or run, at some point. Please be prepared for angry customers who find, for example, that your application ceases to function once they upgrade their operating system. You will be to blame for this problem.
If you are legitimately using some code that happens to be in a core package, then the easiest safe alternative you have is to repackage that code. That is, move the classes in question into your own package namespace. This means that they will never be in conflict with core system classes. JarJar is a tool that may help you in this endeavor. If you find that you cannot do this, then that is an indication that the path you are on will ultimately lead to pain, suffering, grief, and lamentation.

This is how my project looks int he explorer:
-
billdoor almost 12 yearsI already did that, it did not change anything, then i updated my proguard to 4.8, tried to run it - nothing, changed this line again, still does not work
-
billdoor almost 12 yearsi dont't have a folder/item named "Library Projects", i think that was removed 1-2 versions ago
-
billdoor almost 12 yearsplease see my comment on Halims answer
-
billdoor almost 12 yearsps. i added a picture of how the project looks in the package explorer to my question
-
billdoor almost 12 years1) as said, there is no thing named like that (see edited question) 2) did not change anything 3) tried already :/
-
hasanghaforian almost 12 years@billdoor Do you mean that you can not do
clean-build
or export your project,delete it's resource and then import it? -
stuckedoverflow almost 12 years@billdoor, not in the explorer. You must right click your project root (parent) then click properties. There you should see Java Build Path.
-
billdoor almost 12 yearscan you give me a link or a hint on how to do it with one of your ideas? I think this is going the right way
-
JesusFreke about 11 years@Shehaaz my answer already describes how to solve the problem.

Sathesh about 10 yearsThanks a ton. This worked for me.) Previously I was using the ant builder which may take 1 to 2 mins for each deploy. Now this saved me a lot of time.
