I downloaded Windows Phone SDK update for Windows Phone 7.8 and installed it. I however don't see these 2 new emulators they are talking about. Do I have to do something to get them.
I am on a windows 8 box, with both VS 2010 and Vs 2012 on it and neither show these emulators for 7.8. I just get to choose 7.0 and 7.1.
This is how it should look like after installing WP 7.8 SDK update.
Now, show us how it looks like in your VS. So that your problem is clearly understood.
Did you install, WP 7.1.1 Update before installing 7.8 update ?
And you said, its showing 7.0 and 7.1 ? where is it showing ? Microsoft stopped support for 7.0 devices few months back.
Note: Though this is not a real answer, I added it as an answer inorder to add the screen shot. Update your question with more details.

I was busy for a while, so I couldn't work with UWP enough. : )...
Today, I made project with Windows Template Studio, a powerful template.
after I created it, I clicked a XAML page. but XAML design viewer shows message that I need to update to Windows 10, version 1809 ( 10.0.17763.0) to see the contents of XAML viewer.
but I'm worried that my laptop said that its windows version is up to date. 1803
I'm a korean user, and if this problem will not be a long-term problem, and just localization problem with windows policy. then I would be happy and I would go to practice with building a tiny App.
but, if this problem is my problem. how can I update to windows 1809 or, just download SDK to solve this problem ? or can I degrade Windows template studio ?
addded
if I make project with blank uwp app - target version 1803 -, XAML design viewer works well. but if i make blank uwp app with target version 1809, I get same error message.
Right-click the solution in "Solution Explorer" and select "Retarget Solution". Set the Windows SDK version to 10.0.16299.0
In my case I installed only one sdk and that is why I was getting the above mentioned error. From VS installer I installed SDK support for each version and it worked fine for me and my machine is still on windows 10 1803 (I believe they haven't rolled out update for my machine).
I'm developing an app using the Cordova tools for VS 2015 Enterprise. I would like to test my app on Windows Phone, but when I try to debug using the built in "device" option, I get these errors:
Does anyone know how to fix this? For reference, I'm using a Lumia 550, in developer mode, which is plugged in through USB to a computer running Windows 10 (with the latest version of VS and the Cordova tools). I looked in my services app, and IpOverUsbSvc is running already. I'm using the latest version of VS and my phone was updated to the latest version of WP10 today.
I have tried doing a hard reset on the phone, as well as using WPPT to deploy the app, both of which did not work.
This is a known issue for Insider Builds. Please see similar case here.
Please try rolling back to stable version (e.g. 10586).
You can use Windows Device Recovery Tools to roll back.
Will this tool work on phones running Insider Preview builds?
Yes. When you use this tool on a phone that's running a preview build, it will reinstall the latest version of Windows approved for your phone by its manufacturer.
I would like to build an application for universal application Windows 10 with Parse.com. But I only see SDK Parse.com for Windows and Windows phone v1.6. Please help me choose which SDK to build universal application Windows 10. Thanks so much.
Windows 10 (on desktop and phones) uses WinRT, just like Windows 8 did. So if you install the v1.6 of the SDK for Windows, it should work since it's targeting Windows 8.
Overall, I recommend you to add the Parse SDK to your application directly from Visual Studio by using NuGet. This way, you'll be absolutely sure to use a compatible version.
Is it possible to install WP7 SDK on Windows 8 Release Preview? I tried using standard installation package but keep getting following error:
Installation Requirements:
KB2669191 does not apply, or is blocked by another condition on your
computer. Please see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=225649
for more details.
I installed WP7 SDK 7.1 but had some compatibily errors durring the instaa. Right now I can start VS2010 for WP7 but cannot build the solution because of following error:
The target "GetCopyToOutputDirectoryContentProjectItems" does not
exist in the project.
The following link gives the exact steps you need to perform in order to install and run WP7 sdk on windows 8 : WP7 Sdk on Windows 8
For development of XNA/WP7 on Win8:
Install Windows 8, then Visual Studio 2012, then Windows Phone 8 SDK, ensure windows updates are installed (as Nov 2012 had some great App Store updates). Then, port your XNA code across and create a new project to get the DLL references you need. The DLLs will exist in the Silverlight 4 folders but not to worry, it all works once you have WP8 SDK !! The emulator runs great too! This is the process for XNA code into VS2012 that works.
You can get the SDK from here:
https://dev.windowsphone.com/en-us/downloadsdk
NOTE: The XNA games will ONLY work on WP7 devices. You need MonoGame or similar to port to Win8 devices.
You should install WPSDK 7.1 first, before installing 7.1.1 Update. Check the Instructions at the bottom of the page.
see Installing Windows Phone SDK.
Update:
I have used the SDK's 7.1 and 7.1.1 from the above link and they are working fine in Windows 8.
Uninstall Windows Phone 7.1 RC SDK, then install 7.1 RTW SDK, and then the 7.1.1 SDK.
And every thing will be alright
this link for 7.1 RTW
and this for 7.1.1
Good Luck :)
This article finally did the trick. Hopefully posting it here will save someone from the nigh terrors ive been experiencing lol. The work around involves installing the xbox live marketplace and then installing the wp7 sdk and XNA will install normally.

this will get the warning error to go away. To fix the emulator problem you mus download the windows phone sdk 7.1.1 which is an update to the 7.1 sdk you were having problems installing
The error 'GetCopyToOutputDirectoryContentProjectItems' has been known to come from Silverlight, therefore I recommend you try to reinstall the Silverlight SDK on your machine.

Please go ahead and install windows 8 RTM now, after you install RTM ,Install Visual Studio 2012 and then WIndows Phone 8 SDK.now with this SDK , YOU CAN WORK ON WP7
as well as WP8
you can install sdk update 7.1.1 if you didn't.. It solved the problem for me
Download Windows Phone SDK 7.1.1 Update

Can I use the copy/paste functionality that I can find in the updated emulator (January 2011 dev tools update) on my phone?
You cannot use it without the phone being updated.
As of today, the official updated OS build that supports copy/paste is not out yet. Until you get that update and install it on the test device, you cannot use the new functionality on a phone with the older OS build, even though you can access it in the emulator.
Just found this post:
How to: Test Copy and Paste in Windows Phone Emulator
