Using Mac OS 10.13.6 and Visual Studio for Mac Community v7.5.4
Trying to connect to my company's TFS and access the files. I got stuck when it would not let me create a Workspace. I found this thread:
Connect VS code with TFS on mac
It says to download from https://github.com/Microsoft/team-explorer-everywhere/releases a zip staring with TEE-CLC... which I did. In Terminal, when I try running the command at the 1:20 mark in this video nothing happens. I double click the tf command in my Finder window and a Terminal window opens showing "Saving session...copying shared history...saving history...[Process completed]". Again, nothing happens.
I think I'm the only person at my company who is trying to use VS for Mac. Any thoughts?? I'm at the end of my rope just about.
The thread you are referring to is for Visual Studio Code. Since you are using Visual Studio for Mac, you should refer to the article below to connect to TFS:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/mac/tf-version-control
First, check the requirements of connecting to Team Foundation version control from VS for Mac, to see whether your environment meets the requirements:
Visual Studio Community, Professional, or Enterprise for Mac version
7.5 or later.
Visual Studio Team Services, or Team Foundation Server 2013 and later.
A Project in Visual Studio Team Services or Team Foundation Server, configured to use Team Foundation Version Control.
Then follow the steps below to install the extension and connect to VSTS/TFS:
In Visual Studio for Mac, choose Visual Studio > Extensions... from the menu. In the Gallery tab, select Version Control > Team Foundation Version Control for TFS and VSTS and click Install…:
Updates to the TFVC extension are made periodically. To access updates, choose Visual Studio > Extensions... from the menu and select the Updates tab. Select the extension in the list and press the Update button:
Once the extension is installed, select the Version Control > TFS/VSTS > Open from Remote Repository menu item.
Choose either Visual Studio Team Services or Team Foundation Server to get started and press Continue:
Enter the TFS server information or VSTS credential, and select a project.
After installing the extension, you can create a workspace from the Workspace combobox in the Open from Source Control dialog:

I think I was using visual studio 2017 and wrote a SSIS package. Now I installed visual studio 2019 and can't open the solution file. Error:
Unsupported This version of Visual Studio is unable to open the
following projects. The project types may not be installed or this
version of Visual Studio may not support them. For more information
on enabling these project types or otherwise migrating your assets,
please see the details in the "Migration Report" displayed after
clicking OK.
- ABC, "C:\Users\XYZ\ABC.dtproj"
Non-functional changes required Visual Studio will automatically make
non-functional changes to the following projects in order to enable
them to open in Visual Studio 2015, Visual Studio 2013, Visual Studio
2012, and Visual Studio 2010 SP1. Project behavior will not be
impacted.
- ABC_SSIS, "C:\Users\XYZ\ABC_SSIS.sln"
I tried "Right-click on the project and reload" - didn't work.
I tried to confirm SSDT is installed:
it is installed at the installation interface, but doesn't exist in extension manager:
SSIS is a seperate extension now in Visual Studio 2019. You can install that extension in Visual Studio market place. Choose Online tab and search for "SQL Server Integration Services Projects".Hope it can help your problem
1.Extensions -> Microsoft Reporting Service Project
2.and then close visual studio
3.VSIX installer will complete automatically
4.If your project unloaded, right click on project and reload
Today I faced this issue,
Cause
The reason for issue is,
I saw a yellow bg notification at the top of IDE showing performance issue , with option to "disable this" to improve the performance.
I chose disable, later next day when I opened the project, It showed the project is not compatible.
I did Repair SSIS, Uninstall and Reinstall SSIS, and also updated the SSIS to latest version. None of these 3 ways resolved the issue.
Solution
But, I found Manage Extension submenu item under Extension menu, Under installed tab, SSIS extension was in disabled status. I reverted to Enabled status. Sample screenshot of the same for reference is here. If it disabled, simply enable it. Then restart VS with SSIS project.
Enabling the SSIS in manage extensions solved this for me.
Extensions ... Manage Extensions
Online ... Visual Studio Marketplace
SQL Server Integration Services Projects
Download
Close Visual Studio and then run the download
When finished, open your existing SSIS project and right-click the project and select "Reload" or "Reload with dependancies"
You can also now start a new Integration Services project.

If using TFS 2017, it has the option of using git for repositories and Visual Studio 2017 for Mac as of v7.8.3 (build2) doesn't support git in TFS yet.
I have been working with Visual Studio Ultimate 2013. Today when I tried to open a solution, it tried to convert the solution and showed me error like
"The Web Developer Tools option must be installed prior to opening or creating Web projects. You can install this option by repairing your Microsoft Visual Studio installation and ensuring that 'Web Developer Tools' is checked in the list of optional components."
I goggled about this and tried to Modify the Visual Studio 2013 ultimate by enabling the Web Developer Tool. But here I am getting the other error like
Unable to Locate Package Source.
What should I do now?
Go to Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Select your Visual Studio Version and hit "Change"
Click MODIFY and enable Web Developer Tools
Enable Web Developer Tools
Click Update
Perhaps the installer file for Visual Studio was deleted and is no longer available to modify installations. If you can't locate it, you could just re-install Visual Studio, but that takes awhile.
downMy gated checkin reconcile message has stopped working. To troubleshoot I opened up Build Notifications options and see that the "Build notifications to monitor" list is blank.I restarted Visual studio, connected to the project server again in the IDE, rebooted the machine but still Build notification options are blank.
I have also deleted the Team Foundation local cache from %localappdata%/Microsoft/Team Foundation/5.0/Cache but to no result.
From what i understand the Build notification desktop tray app gets the connection to the server from the Connect option in Visual Studio IDE. All the settings look right but the problem persists. Any suggestions?
P.S : I have recently downgraded from Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate to Visual studio 2013 Pro.
Each version of Visual Studio (2010, 2012, 2013, 2015 etc) installs its own newer version of this tool. Each under a different path that contains the Visual Studio version.
Make sure you're launching the correct one, or register your TFS version inside the latest version of Visual Studio installed and use that (since it will be able to connect to any and all versions of TFS).
Few days ago i had to reinstall VS. So after uninstallation, I downloaded VS2010 Ultimate from MSDNAA and installed it. Everything went without any trouble, but when i run VS I found, that there wasn't a Team Explorer.
So i downloaded TE from Team Explorer link. But after installation TE, Visual Studio still doesn't see TE. There is nothing in Menu -> View and Menu -> Tools -> Options -> Source Control.
What should I do now?
Are you able to see Team Explorer which is tabbed along with the solution explorer (At the bottom of the solution explorer window)? If not click view->Team Explorer (Ctrl+M). From there you should be able to connect to your TFS instance.
When you install the Visual Studio, then Team Explorer comes by default with VS.
You can check Team Explorer in View->TeamExplorer
If you do not found Team Viewer in your View then you can download it from below link
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/devops/2017/04/05/reintroducing-the-team-explorer-standalone-installer/
or you can download it from vs installer.
For future readers:
I was missing some menus from the Team Explorer side panel.
what fixed it was resetting user settings by manually running devenv.com /resetuserdata from the visual studio folder.
To me it was:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\Common7\IDE\devenv.com /resetuserdata
Notice: this will reset your settings, so make sure you import / export it first (if you require anything specific) .
I'm assuming your using TFS. Have you connected to a TFS instance using the menu Team -> Connect to team foundation server?
You need to download Microsoft Visual Studio Team Explorer 2010 from here:
