Beginner with xamarin studios for mac, I don't succeed to execute a simple pcl cross platform project on the simulator.
I Use Xcode 8 under ELCapitan and Xamarin Studio.
When I choose output to IPhone simulator and I apply output configuration is not changed.
I also have a Visual Studio 2015 under Windows 10 and solution in in Team Foundation Server (VS2015 for Windows and Eclipse/TFS Everywhere for the mac).
If I launch the application from the PC linked to the mac, I can select the Simulator and the application is launched in it.
If I am on the mac with Xamarin Studio, I can't change the output configuration and Execute application menu are grayed.
This, even is I executed the app with the PC then I checked in the projects and reopen it in the Xamarin Studio.
I don't understand.
Could you help me ?
Thanks

1) Does your iOS project loads on Xamarin Studio ?
2) Did you select your iOS project as startup project
3) On Project / Solution Options / Configuration / Configuration Mappings, is you iOS project build checkbox ticked for the configuration you are trying to launch?
4) Did you try with an empty Xamarin.Forms project created from scratch on Xamarin Studio?
YES
YES
HERE IS THE ISSUE : I see Debug | IPhone simulator in configuration selector. When I select it, it seems ok. If I come back to this screen, I lost my selection.
YES (but I tried an other one created with visual studio, same issue).
Thanks for your help
can you attach a screenshot?
Later I'm not in my office.
When selecting the configuration you don't go to a different screen, you select it top left of the Xamarin Studio main window, next to the run icon. So when you say 'come back to this screen' I think you are changing the configuration somewhere else.
In the configuration selector (only in Xamarin Studio on Mac) I don't see IPhoneSimulator in the device selector.
Only Default and Device.
Do you have XCode installed?
You can't install Xamarin Studio without Xcode. I have Xcode 8.0.

Post the screenshot when you get to work, something sounds amiss.
@Lolo2Paris
ok can you check this can you go to your mac and type this in your terminal
sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config
if it not theresudo nano /etc/sshd_config
it should be either place.and go to
UseDNS
just follow the instruction below the terminal screen. if you find#UseDNS
or# UseDNS
then replaceUseDNS no
like that and save it.caution: be careful when you do this. don't edit any other places. ok
Ok thanks. This mac is a virtual machine. I try it on an other virtual machine and in this one, I see the list of possible version in the device drop down. So I think the problem is a config one.
I'll check that tonight.
Thanks for your help
Sorry, yesterday I didn't worked on the machine with the issue. As you can read in my previous post. The list of device dosen't include simulated divices. It's the only difference with the woking machine.

Today It works, I don't understand...
