My OS is Windows 10, developing with Visual Studio 2019, XCode 9.4, and developing Xamarin Forms app.
When trying to connect Mac book Pro 13 (10.13.6), via Visual Studio 2019, I get this weird state where I am connected to MacBook (check the 'chain' under screen icon), but really I am not, as it does not appear in paired devices.
When running the app I get a single error that says A remote error occurred in the connected Mac
When I click on the message I get to a log and in it I see a lot of steps and four errors.

What is going on? How do I debug this further?
The answer was to get a Mac Book Air that had support for the latest macOS (High Spur) and latest XCode (12) and the Visual Studio and Mac book managed to connect.
So one potential solution would be to upgrade your hardware.
Can anyone have any idea why Visual studio instance is not getting opened and how can I fix that. Below is error details I found from Visual Studio logs & system.

Q# Language Extension
So I have no intellisense and the *.qs files are not as Q# recognized.
Visual Studio 2017 15.9
Windows 10 1809
Any idea about this?
We have posted a new version of the Visual Studio extension (0.3.1811.1501) which we believe should fix the problem. Do you mind updating the extension and giving it a try?
summary:
I'm having difficulties getting the test agent to deploy as part of the build process in Visual Studio Online for a website, maybe due to network proxy.
details:
I work for Crab Company, "cc" for short (no, not really), and we have an account at https://cc.visualstudio.com .
We have an on-premise build server, "ccvsts", Windows Server 2012 R2.
We have an instance that will be used for intranet testing and will be hosting the website, "ccwebt1", Windows Server 2016.
Network traffic is filtered. Ports were opened. Intranet machines connect to the internet using a proxy.
We have some tests for the website utilizing Selenium. I'm trying to incorporate this testing following the guide at https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/docs/test/continuous-testing/getting-started/continuous-test-selenium but instead of building the solution (which has a bunch of projects) I've got it building just the website project and test project:
I've gotten to the point where the project builds, and past some initial networking issues, but I think now I'm running into a problem due to the proxy. I think the relevant exception is
System.Management.Automation.MethodInvocationException: Exception calling ".ctor" with "2" argument(s): "One or more errors occurred." ---> System.AggregateException: One or more errors occurred. ---> System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException: An error occurred while sending the request. ---> System.Net.WebException: Unable to connect to the remote server ---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 104.214.111.103:443
Note that cc.visualstudio.com resolves to 104.214.111.103
Also note, this is failing on the "Deploy TestAgent on" build step.
Also also note, the first build steps do succeed and code is generated on ccvsts, so the build agent (at least) can already communicate with Visual Studio Online.
I believe this is proxy related by example of the following powershell
PS > $R = Invoke-WebRequest -URI http://www.bing.com?q=how+many+feet+in+a+mile
Invoke-WebRequest :
Access Denied (authentication_failed)
Your credentials could not be authenticated: "Credentials are missing.". You will not be permitted access until your
credentials can be verified.
However, this might be a credential issue. The requirements for the test agent were a bit unclear to me, so I have set up a local user account and local admin account on ccwebt1, but neither account has access to VSTS. I don't know if this will cause problems or not.
To summarize my question
1) If the network proxy is preventing access to visual studio online in the test agent power shell script, how can I fix that?
2) Will using local accounts for the test agent prevent access to visual studio online?

Finishing: Deploy TestAgent on

I've just started learning MSBuild and tried to load the below simple test project to Visual Studio 2013 (Update 5), but I'm getting the error 'The project system has encountered an error' - 'The given key was not present in the dictionary.'
Note I can successfully build the project with MSBuild from command line, just want to see it in VS project tree as part of a solution among the other csproj/vcxproj/etc. projects.
I've tried several ways, changing bits and pieces in msbuildproj file, etc. - no success, always getting the same error. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Are MSBuild projects not supposed to be added to VS solution?
<!-- mytest.msbuildproj -->
<Project xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003" >
<Target Name="Build">
<Message Text="Building my target" />
</Target>
</Project>

===================
Not all msbuild files are created equal. Sure you can craft one from scratch, and run it on the command line. But that doesn't mean visual studio will like that file.
Visual studio needs a msbuild file with a certain schema, and the above file doesn't fit the bill.
