I am trying to run /xamarin-forms-samples/EmployeeDirectory in xamarin studio on my Mac.
I did not find xamarin.social in the packages and I get the error:
The type or namespace name 'Social' does not exist in the namespace
'Xamarin'. Are you missing an assembly reference? (CS0234)
(EmployeeDirectory.iOS)
Trying to install xamarin.social I get the error:
Could not install package 'Xamarin.Social 1.1.7'. You are trying to
install this package into a project that targets
'Xamarin.iOS,Version=v1.0', but the package does not contain any
assembly references or content files that are compatible with that
framework. For more information, contact the package author.
What to do?
Thank you

I am currently working on a cross-platform app with Xamarin and I am trying to use the NuGet package Parse 1.7.0, but when I try to install the package via NuGet on Visual Studio 2015, I get this error :
Could not install package 'Parse 1.7.0'. You are trying to install this package into a project that targets '.NETPortable,Version=v4.5,Profile=Profile259', but the package does not contain any assembly references or content files that are compatible with that framework. For more information, contact the package author.
Is it to understand the Parse official package is not compatible with Xamarin ? If so, is there a way to make it compatible ?
Thanks in advance !
If you look inside the nupkg of this package:
https://www.nuget.org/packages/parse
You will find a lib folder with the following targets available. Thus you are trying to target Profile259, but there is no definition in the Parse NuGet package for this. That is why it fails. You must install against one of these targets instead.
Thus if you installed this individually into MonoAndroid or Xamarin.iOS10, it work install just fine (Xamarin.Android and Xamarin.iOS projects respectfully).
Had the same, just remove the Silverlight platform from your targets and it should work

I'm creating a content-only NuGet package (e.g. no DLLs, just text files in this case). When I install the package, I get this error message:
Install-Package : Could not install package 'CodeGenerator.Templates.EF6-CQRS-Aurelia 1.0.2'. You are trying to install this package into a project that targets '.NETFramework,Version=v4.6.1', but the package does not contain any assembly references or
content files that are compatible with that framework. For more information, contact the package author.
This is all true, but I don't want to target any framework for this package -- how can I accomplish this?
The package is here: https://www.nuget.org/packages/CodeGenerator.Templates.EF6-CQRS-Aurelia
I had the same problem but with only a build target (and no assemblies).
Just adding an empty lib folder to my root package directory fixed it.
(Maybe a bug in NuGet. I have submitted an issue.)
Getting the error "Error CS0234: The type or namespace name CrossCore' does not exist in the namespaceCirrious'. Are you missing an assembly reference?" for PCL. And unable to update packages.
We are getting error when we are trying to update packages in Xamarin studio PCL in Mac machine. “Could not install package 'MvvmCross.PortableSupport 3.2.2'. You are trying to install this package into a project that targets 'portable-Profile78', but the package does not contain any assembly references or content files that are compatible with that framework. For more information, contact the package author.”
If you are updating an old MvvmCross project then that is probably why. Starting with 3.2.1 MvvmCross moved to PCL profile 259. You'll need to change the profile of your pcl core to this profile or something else that is compatible.
After uninstall xamarin by following steps in the url http://developer.xamarin.com/guides/cross-platform/getting_started/installation/uninstalling_xamarin/
and reinstall the Xamarin Studio, the Nuget packages are started updating.
