March 29, 2012 - I also had this problem, I tried everything mentioned here, but they did not work!! the issue was that in maven projects section, my maven projects were ignored for some reason!!So I just right clicked on each project and clicked unignore project!!after that I did everything mentioned here and it worked ... @Jmeen011 Your answer worked for me, I simply had to do invalidate caches and restart for intelliJ to reinsert all my dependencies.

February 2, 2016 - 3. External dependencies shows everything, it could be that the dependency is added to some other module and the module that has the problem doesn't have this specific dependency for some reason.

As mentioned by @maheeka in the question's comments, if the project is a Maven project, the simplest way to achieve updating changed external libraries is to right-click on the project, and select Maven > Reload project.
You can actually see IntelliJ re-indexing the changed libraries individually during the operation in the bottom right status bar.
Tested on v2021.1 Ultimate.

June 2, 2019 - Seems to me that the libraries folder in .idea just never updated. Hope this helps someone ... The only way to make it work is to perform a maven build outside of IntelliJ and then it works.

It turns out IntelliJ does not pick up added dependencies from the local Maven repository. We have to tell IntelliJ to reimport the pom.xml.
- Open the project view in IntelliJ
- Right click the pom.xml file and select Maven > Reimport or Maven > Reload (for newer versions of IntelliJ)
- If this works for you IntelliJ will add the dependencies to the project
- Check the if the dependencies you need are added in
- File - Project Structure - Project Settings - Libraries
- and File - Project Structure - Modules - Dependencies

You don't have to reimport manually each time. You can enable auto-import as documented here. Change this in Settings -> Maven -> Import Maven projects automatically.

Hello Andrey Dernov That was an excellent suggestion! I disabled the Scala plugin, then deleted both .idea directory and .iml file and after I recreated all the project from the existing sources. It worked. I have now the right Spring Boot dependencies in the « External Libraries » section of the project.

April 27, 2021 - My maven project has a dependency on a jar in the local maven repository. I updated the version in the pom file, but the version brought into the project stayed the old version. When I decompiled the class I found the path was to the old version. After investigation the problem was that the version of the jar in .idea/libraries was still referring.
