I need to publish my android app that make it with visual studio enterprise 2017 and get IOS version of My App.
How to do this?
If you wish to compile your Xamarin application on iOS, you must have a Mac machine and deploy your app through there. You are not able to deploy an iOS version of your application on Windows, unless you are tethering to a Mac device through LAN for example using Visual Studio 2017.
Chick this out too, hope it helps!

Is it possible to create an .ipa file in visual studio 2019 without MAC device.
I have tried this link but it doesn't generate the file since I am not connected to MAC.
My project is Xamarin Form IOS and Visual Studio 2019. I have apple developer account.
Without Mac it is impossible. You can also use Mac on cloud service.
I have a Xamarin project developed in iOS MAC. I want to continue the development of the same project on Xamarin Studio but on Windows. Is this possible?
Yes you can, keep in mind that when you're downloading Xamarin at windows it always force you to download a visual studio with Xamarin being a plugin (now they're introducing visual studio for Mac too!). if you're insisting to use Xamarin studio on windows go on to your account on Xamarin rather than using the default download button, and see all the version that can be downloaded. Xamarin studio for windows should still be there
You can open an Android project in Xamarin Studio on OSX or Windows. An iOS app will not open in Xamarin Studio on Windows; it has to be opened in Visual Studio. On Windows, Visual Studio should be used over Xamarin Studio.
Hi am using visual studio 2015 community to create ios app.I am getting this error all time like the ios designer mac agent is not available.I am using win-7 64-bit os.
You have to have a Mac paired with your Windows OS in order to utilize the iOS Designer.
Xamarin.iOS Requirements:
Windows 7 or higher.
Visual Studio 2012 Professional or higher.
Xamarin for Visual Studio.
A Mac running OS X Yosemite (10.10) or higher (although we recommend the latest stable version).
Xamarin iOS SDK.
Apple’s Xcode(7+) IDE and iOS SDK (we recommend the latest version from the App Store).
The Windows computer must be able to reach the Mac via the network.
Xamarin.iOS for Visual Studio accomplishes an amazing feat: it lets you create, build, and debug iOS applications on a Windows computer using the Visual Studio IDE. It cannot do this alone – iOS applications cannot be created without Apple’s compiler, and they cannot be deployed without Apple’s certificates and code-signing tools. This means that your Xamarin.iOS for Visual Studio installation requires a connection to a networked Mac OS X computer in order to perform these tasks. Once configured, Xamarin’s tools will make the process as seamless as possible.

This worked for me perhaps it might work for you
Delete the Xamarin folder in your %localappdata%\Local\Temp
If this fails reinstall/update mono on Mac
The docs from Xamarin aren't explicit as to where an iOS device needs to be attached. I'm using VS to build a Xamarin app through a remote Mac Builder (connected via VPN) but my iphone is attached to my PC with Visual Studio. Its completely unclear as to whether or not you can deploy a compiled to from the PC you're running Visual Studio on or whether the iOS device needs to be USB'd to the remote Mac running the build.
Any pointers would be helpful.
Your iPhone needs to be connected to the OS-X Host:

I'm trying to deploy a universal app to a windows phone (development ready Lumia 520) device (I could deploy with Visual Studio 2015 RC).
Now that I'm using the latest visual studio and windows 10 sdk tools if I try to deploy to device (I'm using ARM) then the output just says:
Deploying started...
And gets stuck forever (I can still use visual studio) but it never ends.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
I needed to change my phone device to developer mode.
