Xamarin Studio (V6.2.0.1829) is only running in the background - xamarin

I have tried all the ways to install Xamarin Studio on my Windows 10 pro laptop with VS2015 installed. My Xamarin for VS2015 is working. I would like to try Xamarin Studio for some apps. I have downloaded the Xamarin Studio for Windows (6.2.0.1829, the newest). After a successful installation (resolved many issues related to prerequisites), the Xamarin Studio would only run in background. Since I started it many times, there were no Xamarin interface, I checked the process manager and found each time it was running in background). I have searched solutions for 1 day, and evaluated all suggestions, including re-install, repair, reloading, restart. I still could not fix the problem. Please help me to make it run in foreground.

iOS app flashing and closing on remote debug from Visual Studio

I'm a beginner in iOS development in Visual Studio 2013 through Xamarin.
I made a test app and tried to debug it on the MacBook Pro through LAN remote debugging.
As soon as I debug, the app starts shows launch screen and after 1 second it close, this happens several times and then the app stops.
I'm using xamarin 6.1.4.1 on both machines.
It shows the error : An error occurred while executing the mtouch.
What should I do now??
After going through every things, I re-installed Xamarin Studio by using Xamarin Installer rather than installing individual components. Seems like Xamarin Installer makes some more changes in system other than installing components.

Xamarin Studio do not start after install

Trying to install and run Xamarin Studio on my Mac, unfortunately this is not going well, please help. I have 7 years cross platform and app development behind me so I should now the basics.
I downloaded Xamarin Studio for Mac on the site, a dmg file was clicked and installation begun. I have gone through all steps and after problems with disk space (25 GB??) it was done.
Moving on to start Xamarin Studio and nothing happens. Absolutely nothing. I tried reboot my mac, I tried several times to start, but nothing.
(It was installed and required to enter my Admin password so it should have been installed as admin)
I use Yosemite 10.10.5 at the moment
I have Xcode installed version 7.1.1
I have Android SDK installed from before (but now also a new SDK :( )
When I read at the site there are not consistent information, at the requirements overview it says latest Xcode is required, on the actual table it is recommended. Anyone know if this is ACTUALLY my problem?
I have a problem to upgrade at this point as it can produce production problems for the deliveries I am about to do this week, at the same time I need to have Xamarin started.
Have anyone been running Xamarin with Xcode 7.1.1?? And build apps to iOS?
I was kind of expecting Xamarin Studio to at least start and let me know.
By the way I have been trying to find the answer here but cannot find anything, also at Google of course, let me know if you know a resource..
Hope I was enough specific
1) Open Console.app, "Clear the Display" and launch Xamarin Studio and review the Messages for failures/issues
2) Open a shell (Terminal or iTerm2) and run Xamarin Studio and review any messages shown. A properly functioning Xamarin Studio launched to it's main window this way will not produce any messages in the shell.
/Applications/Xamarin\ Studio.app/Contents/MacOS/XamarinStudio
3) Check the Xamarin Studio logs:
cd ~/Library/Logs/XamarinStudio-6.0/
rm *.log
/Applications/Xamarin\ Studio.app/Contents/MacOS/XamarinStudio
Review any .log files created
Xamarin System Requirements:
macOS
I'm running El Captain 10.11.6 and what solved the problem to me was to follow #SushiHangover's step 2 that is to open Terminal and run Xamarin from the cli, then I got this:
$ /Applications/Xamarin\ Studio.app/Contents/MacOS/XamarinStudio
Cannot open assembly '/Applications/Xamarin Studio.app/./XamarinStudio.exe': No such file or directory.
After that I googled it and read this bugzilla thread that made me remove Xamarin Studio app:
$ rm -rf /Applications/Xamarin\ Studio.app
And and reinstall it from the original installer.
All worked fine after this. :)

Multiple errors when creating Xamarin.Forms - Blank Xaml App (Xamarin.Forms Portable) or Android App

I using Windows 10 and am trying to create a Xamarin.Forms - Blank Xaml App (Xamarin.Forms Portable) project for the first time. I have Visual Studio 2015 Enterprise Update 3 installed and have tried uninstalling, reinstalling, and repairing multiple times.
When I create a project, I get the following errors:
"The name 'InitializeComponent' does not exist in the current context"
"Error encountered while loading the project. Some project features, such as full solution analysis for the failed project and projects that depend on it, have been disabled" - for App, Droid, UWP, WinPhone, Windows, and iOS
"The XamlCTask task failed unexpectedly..." - for UWP, WinPhone, Windows, and iOS
I tried this on my work computer and home computer and I had the same issues with both.
I have tried updating Xamarin.Forms nuget to the latest version and the created 36 errors with Droid. I also tried going to c:/users/[YOURNAME]/AppData/Local. Delete the Xamarin folder and that did not solve the issue.
I tried creating other Visual Studio projects that did not involve Xamarin and did not have any issues with those. I know the issue is with Xamarin (probably something with Android) itself, but I don't think that there is anything that I am missing from the install. I tried installing it by first installing Visual Studio, then going to Modify and adding Cross Platform. That didn't work, so I uninstalled then downloaded the Xamarin Installer. I had the same issues with both.
I created a blank Android App and that give me the warning - "aapt.exe" exited with code - 1073741849".
A blank app for iPhone does not give any errors or warnings.
Windows Phone does not give any errors or warnings either.
Any ideas of what I should check for so I can get this working?
Here is a picture of the error that I'm getting
Try updating to the latest version of Forms to get rid of the XamlC errors. Assuming you haven't updated, the template is using a modestly old version. As for the aapt error, if you have the N SDK preview installed, removing that should help. Alternatively, make certain that you have up through API 23 installed.

Windows UWP development problems (Windows 10 Emulator and Xamarin)

I have a few problems that are driving me nuts.
I have the latest Windows 10 SDK (10586.212) and Emulator 10586.11. I have seen before (https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/sdk-archive) that the Emulator for 10586.212 is available too, so I download it.
All good till here. That the problem is when I want to install it it says I must uninstall the previous version 10586.11. Ok, no problem, I do it and re-run the install. And than it shows that it wants to install 10586.11 emulator again. Wtf ?
I was thinking it is just a typo error and press install, but no, it did install 10586.11. How can I get the emulator for 10586.212 ?
And another problem for Xamarin Studio. I installed xamarin tools and I have it in visual studio, but it didn't install xamarin studio ?
Thanks.
you should have to change settings of Hyper V. then try to install emulator it will working perfect.
