I have successfully installed TFS 2012 and migrated my TFS 2008 databases into TFS 2012. From within Visual Studio I am able to connect to the new TFS server through my source control plugin and can see all of the projects that were imported from TFS 2008. The problem is that when I click 'Connect' I am getting an exception that an HTTP 500 error has occurred. On the server I am getting a warning in the Event Viewer because of this URL:
http://[servername]:8080/tfs/tfs2008projectcollection/services/v3.0/locationservice.asmx/TeamFoundation/Administration/v3.0/LocationService.asmx
If I manually go to the above URL minus '/TeamFoundation/Administration/v3.0/LocationService.asmx' the page loads fine. Additionally if I remove '/tfs2008projectcollection/services/v3.0/locationservice.asmx' and navigate to http://[servername]:8080/tfs/TeamFoundation/Administration/v3.0/LocationService.asmx the page loads fine.
Thing is this only happens with the project collection that I imported from 2008. I created a new project collection directly in TFS 2012 and I can connect to that project just fine within VS 2012. Has anyone ran into this issue and, if so, what is the best way to correct it?
It is unclear what caused / is causing this problem but after a TFS server reboot the issue is no longer manifesting itself.
I'm am also having this issue. I have Update 4 and this is a fresh machine. I see the issue here, have tried the fix and no luck. I've also tried a reboot with no luck. I see the issue here and it appears that Microsoft's only suggestion is to 2013. Unfortunately they do not supply a migration path directly between 2008 and 2013, so I have to cross my fingers and hope that upgrading the machine after importing from 2008 even with the error will solve the issue.
Can anyone confirm the issue is actually resolved in 2013?

Having installed VS 2013 Premium Update 4 on my VDI going along with Team Explorer for VS 2013 and TFS 2013 Power Tools Update 2 there is a problem with missing Team Explorer extension. While opening VS error occurs as on attached screenshot:
Honestly I have no idea, what causes the problem. I tried to reinstall VS, TFS and several oder hints like clearing Team Explorer cache folder. With no result. And it seems to be VS problem, because from command line I can call TFS and my workspaces are listed properly, so It is installed for sure. As a clue there is kind of error, which occurs while opening solution, and 2 from event viewer:
I am trying to set up an integration with MS Project 2013 with TFS 2017 I have not tried this before. so i am not sure if there is a problem with my pc setup or the addin configuration.This is the error i get when trying to open saved query:
Error Converting Value "System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity;xxx" to type 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.Identity.Services.IdentityDiscriptor'.Path 'authenticatedUser.descriptor'. line 1 postion 168
I am able to load it from Visual Studio 2015 in the workitems load the Query and then click "Open in Microsoft Office" then choose MS Project. this loads successfully. but i do get errors that I can't publish changes. It asked to restart Project and try again
I cannot reproduce this issue with project 2013 and TFS 2017.
Check Addins’ key in registry (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\MS Project\Addins), change newest addin (e.g. TFCOfficeShim.Connect.5) LoadBehavior to 3 and others to 0, then try to open saved query in Project 2013 and check the result.
If still don’t work, try to repair your project product.
I have uninstalled Office 365 and Project 2013. Restarted my PC and installed Project 2013 and this fixed this issue.
The issue came back and did some more google searches. I found the answer as part of a bug kb
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3181963/excel-or-project-cannot-connect-to-tfs-2010-or-tfs-2012-servers
After installing this update and rebooting it works.
I am not able to access both the Source control in Visual Studio 2010 as in 2012 when I try to access this error is shown: "TF14045: The identity is not a Recognized identity". This error started after I detach the project collection from TFS 2010 and attach on Team Foundation Server 2012, anyone knows how to fix this?
I guess you have TFS 2012 with Update 1 installed? If so you have to wait for the upcomming patch that will contain a bugfix for this error. Have a look at Microsoft Social:

Never had this error, because the migration is planned for January, but I found this entry with some suggestions and answers from MS:

Just be sure that you have not opened two instances of Visual Studio & trying to connect two TFS servers which needs two different credentials/ domain.
I was facing that issue & after closing one of the instances, it started working fine.
I recently installed Visual Studio 2012 (RTM) and a project collection is missing from the Team Project Collections list in the "Connect to Team Foundation Server" modal window. The project collection is listed in VS 2008 and VS 2010. The collection state in TFS Administration Console shows as online. This is not a recently created collection it is over 2 years old with many projects. Share Point, Web Access, and Reporting Services sites all work fine. I have run Best Practices Analyzer and did not see anything that stood out although it contained a lot of information and I could have overlooked something. We are running TFS 2010 which was upgraded from TFS 2008.
Any help would be much appreciated.
I had a similar problem, where the project collection was listed, but as soon as I attempted to connect to it, the Team Explorer panel showed a 404 error message.
I resolved it by clearing the TFS cache folders under my user profile local app data folder.
In Windows Explorer, go to %LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Team Foundation. For my profile, there were 3 folders: 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0 (presumably corresponding to TFS 2008, 2010 and 2012) with a Cache folder under each. I cleared all 3 Cache folders and was then able to connect successfully.
Not directly programming, but related:
I'm using team explorer 2010 to connect to a 2010 TFS server (On a 2008R2 box), however when I try and connect, I get a red X on the project node and cannot expand it. There are not error messages or anything. Here is an image of what I am getting . I have the same exact setup on another system (except Windows 7), using the same credentials and it works fine. Anyone ever run into this before?
Run devenv.exe /ResetSettings
If this won't help, you'll have to do a clean install of VS 2010 Ultimate (preferably Ultimate)
I get this every once in a while.
To resolve this, I delete the cache folders in the %APPDATA%..\Local\Microsoft\Team Foundation\3.0\Cache folder.
Go the steps from here.
