Missing "Host in the cloud" check box in Visual Studio 2017 - visual-studio

When creating a project, in the second window, "select a template" there is no "Microsoft Azure" window in the bottom right, with the check box "Host in the cloud". Looked for the Azure SDK in the web found only version VS 2015.

Microsoft Azure section has been removed on Visual Studio 2017 project creation window. You can right click on project, click publish and then you can select publish to Azure.

Visual Studio for Mac: Connecting to TFS

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:

Visual Studio 2012 and Team Foundation Services: Will not connect?

I am attempting to use Team Foundation Services (the cloud based service) with Visual Studio 2012 Update 1.
I have configured my account at visualstudio.com, and created a sample project.
When I click the "Open New Instance of Visual Studio" link from the Team Foundation Service project page:
At home, my VS2012 opens and connects, and I can see the project in the Team panel.
When controlling my work PC, VS2012 opens, but it does not connect. The Team panel shows "Disconnected" where the project name should be.
How do I connect VS to Team Foundation Services when the "Open new Instance of Visual Studio" link does not work?
You can just manually add a new server instance to Visual Studio. On the Team Explorer tab the 'Projects' menu item (click the >) you should have a list of previously connected projects.
If the project you want isn't there, choose 'Connect to project'. Click the servers button to add https://[youraccount].visualstudio.com/.

check in policies in TFS using Visual studio 11 preview

I want to configure check in policies for my Team project using visual studio 11 preview and TFS explorer. I know how to do it in visual studio by right clicking Team project and then team project settings and then configure check in policies but In visual studio 11, things has changed. Please suggest how to do it.
If you go to the home page of the new team explorer the last option should be "Settings". When you click on that you will navigate to the settings page in team explorer and from there you can access the team project settings.

How do I install the Visual Web Developer feature for Visual Studio 2010

I have Visual Studio 2010 Premium installed, and I want to install the Silverlight 4 SDK.
The SDK says that it requires the Visual Web Developer feature for Visual Studio 2010. Any idea as to how to install, or activate this feature?
Run the Visual Studio installer and double check the installed components. Make sure Web Developer is enabled (Web Developer should be part of the standard installation for VS 2010 Premium) and then hit OK.
Once the installation has completed try installing the Silverlight SDK again.
Rerun visual studio setup
Select modify
Choose option "Microsoft web Developer Tools"
With Windows Azure, this is not as straightforward, because there is no separate VS installer. After launching VS2010SP1AzurePack.2E2.2E1.exe, you will eventually get this message. Once you do, click OK. Then on the next screen, where it has all the software products listed and the "I Accept" button is grayed out, scroll down to the "Visual Web Developer 2010 Express (Dependency)" line, and click on the "Direct Download" link underneath it. Run the "vwd_web.exe" file that it downloaded, and it will install Visual Web Developer 2010 Express. Once that completes, click on the "I Decline" button back on the list of products. That returns you to the first screen. Now click the "Install" button - the message will not appear, and the "I Accept" button on the next screen will now be enabled.
In my case, I had already chosen the Web Dev feature, and performed the following
New Project
Cloud Project
Get Azure SDK
Click the Download Azure button
WebPI kicked off
Closed VS
Clicked Accept
Azure SDK (2.9.1) installed.

what you need to do is to click "Add Service Reference" then you will get something as follows:
then click on "Advanced" then you will see an option to
"Add Web Reference"
Hope it works for you
