I get the error: 

Error:(3, 22) compileSdkVersion android-22 requires compiling with JDK 7

I am using a Mac running OSX 10.6 so JDK 7 isn't supported. Is there a way I can change the compileversion to one that can use JDK 6? Any help would be great.

If you set your target android sdk version to 21 or above it will require Java 7.

If you cannot use JDK 7 you can set your target sdk version to 20 or below. However, I would caution against this, if you are going to be building apps that will be in distributed on the play store it is a good idea to be using Java 7 and targeting version 21.

You can see more information about upgrading to using JDK 7 here
