how to repair Xamarin studio - xamarin.android

I have already install Xamarin Studio 6.0
Now I Want to install Xamarin.android for android apps development (because checkbox is disabled).
How I can modify this component.

As far as I know, Microsoft Visual Studio for Mac now completely replaced Xamarin Studio. Last version of Xamarin Studio I had installed was marked as damaged or corrupted on my Mac so I just moved it into Trash and installed Visual Studio for Mac. After that I was able to install new versions of Xamarin.Android, Xamarin.iOS et cetera.

Cannot get list of iOS simulators in Debug Target from Visual Studio 2022 on Windows

I have the problem that I'm not able to see the list of iOS simulators in Visual Studio Debug Target on my Windows PC
I've just made a total upgrade of my Xamarin development environment including now latest VS 2022, latest OS on my Mac, latest XCode version 14 and latest version of Xamarin on my PC and Mac. I have successfully paired to my Mac from Visual Studio.
On my Mac I've just tried to refresh the list of Debug devices as described in Microsoft Docs:
Delete your ~/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices folder.
Run killall -9 com.apple.CoreSimulator.CoreSimulatorService.
Run xcrun simctl list devices.
.. but still no result. All I can select in my Debug Target is Local Device, Remote Device and Simulator.
Before this upgrade I had no problem seeing all the simulators.
I will really appreciate if anybody have some good ideas of what I can do to solve this.
Following is my list of installed components from VS About box:
Xamarin 17.3.0.296 (d17-3#a0ff24b)
Visual Studio extension to enable development for Xamarin.iOS and Xamarin.Android.
Xamarin Designer 17.3.0.208 (remotes/origin/d17-3#e4f67afef)
Visual Studio extension to enable Xamarin Designer tools in Visual Studio.
Xamarin Templates 17.2.28 (9b3d244)
Templates for building iOS, Android, and Windows apps with Xamarin and Xamarin.Forms.
Xamarin.iOS and Xamarin.Mac SDK 15.12.0.2 (87f98a75e)
Xamarin.iOS and Xamarin.Mac Reference Assemblies and MSBuild support
Please be noted that XCode 14 is not yet supported in Xamarin.iOS or .NET MAUI, you need downgrade your Xcode version to 13.4.1 and could download it from the downloads page in the Apple Developer Portal. For more information, you can refer to https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios/issues/15954
Update:
Xcode 14 is currently supported and if there are any other issues, please continue to post back to the GitHub.Thanks!
I have this same issue even after installing VS 17.3.6. I have no list of iOS simulators and I get a warning that this version of Xcode is not supported.

VS2019 without Windows 8.1 SDK

I'm trying to run an already functional application that requires the Windows 8.1 SDK.
I installed Visual Studio 2019, but there is no option in the 8.1 SDK.
This is for a Windows 10 using Visual Studio 2019 last update.
On my old computer, there was the option to select in "Individual Components", but now no longer the encounter. Does anyone know if there is no such support on VS2019? Or is it necessary to install something more for the support to appear?
This is expected as it is marked as deprecated in Visual Studio 2019:
The Windows 8.1 SDK is no longer available in the Visual Studio
installer. Please upgrade your C++ projects to the latest Windows 10
SDK. If you have a hard dependency on 8.1, you can download it from
the Windows SDK archive.
So download and install the SDK from here.

xamarin,Can debug with simulator on windows visual studio?

I have Visual studio 2017 on windows and have a mini mac.
I installed xamarin, xamarin.ios, xamarin.android to windows.
Then can debug android application with emulator on visual studio success fully.
I installed xamarin studio community and update recent version xamarin, xamarin.ios, xamarin.android.
Then i could connect to mac from visual studio by xamarin agent.
I thought that finally readied to debug IOS app by simulator.
But don't appearance IOS simulators list.
So, I want to be sure that, Is it possible that debug with simulator on visual studio(windows) without "Remoted iOS Simulator"? I know that is require VS enterprise but i don't have.
Waiting your comment, Thank you.

Not Able to Connect with MAC System in Xamarin.IOS using VisualStudio 2017

The Installesd Xamarin.IOS (version 10.8) on the MAC Xamarin Team is not compatible with the local Xamarin.IOS (version 10.2) . PLease select a new server or install the correct Xamarin.IOS versions.
I am getting the above issue while connecting with the MAC from Visual Studio 2017.I did Unistall and Installed VS two times. for this , we have wasted threee days of time.
please anyone provide the solution for the above issue.
Thank you in Advance.
Check the Xamarin.ios updates both on PC and Mac. Download and install all the updates, make the version of your Xamarin.ios up to date.
To check the Xamarin.ios updates on PC:
Open Visual Studio.
Tools->Options...->Xamarin->Other.
Select Stable and click the Check Now button.
On Mac:
Open Visual Studio for Mac.
Click the Visual Studio ... tab right after the Apple icon on the top-left of screen.
Click Check for Updates...
If it is not on stable channel, choose Stable and click on Switch
channel button.
You can check the versions both on PC and Mac for xamarin.ios in VS.
Check the xamarin.ios version on PC:
Help->About Microsoft Visual Studio.
On Mac:
Visual Studio ...->About Visual Studio ...->Show Details.
At this time (9/4/2017), the latest stable version of Xamarin.ios is 10.12. When you update both them, try to connect them again.

How can I update the Xamarin.IOS version on my
MAC?

"The installed Xamarin.iOS (version 10.3) on the Mac Unnamed Server (...) is not compatible with the local Xamarin.iOS (version 10.4)"

On my Windows box I have VS 2017, and on my Mac I have Xamarin Studio 6.2.
When I try to build an iOS project in Visual Studio on Windows, it complains that "The installed Xamarin.iOS (version 10.3) on the Mac Unnamed Server () is not compatible with the local Xamarin.iOS (version 10.4)".
However, in Help -> About in VS, it reports that the Xamarin.iOS is version 10.4.0.123. On the Mac, Xamarin Studio reports that I have version 10.4.0.128. Presumably, these should be compatible. I have tried to check for updates, as noted in other questions, but there are none available.
Any hints as to what is going on here?
Those versions are not in fact compatible. Xamarin builds for VS 2017 are currently 1 build behind those for the Mac. I recommend downgrading your Mac Xamarin iOS Version to 10..4.0.123, which you can get from the your Xamarin account Downloads page:
https://store.xamarin.com/account/my/subscription/downloads#all-versions
Get the 10.4 version dated Feb 28th (or perhaps Mar 1 depending on your time zone) which is version 10.4.0.123 as installed in your VS 2017.
See this release note for more info:
https://releases.xamarin.com/category/xamarin-for-visual-studio/
and note this line in the above:
Do note that at the moment, Xamarin for Visual Studio 2017 is one build behind the version for Visual Studio 2015.
and thus is one build behind for Xamarin Studio on the Mac as well. So you can either downgrade your Mac to a matching version or go back to VS 2015.
