Unable to debug ArcGIS 10.2 add-in on ArcMap with “No GUI components found in this Add-In” - vb.net

I am working on an ArcGIS add-in (a very simple toolbar with a few buttons) with VB.Net and ArcObjects SDK in Visual Studio 2010. The solution was built successfully and the debug settings were configured.
When I hit Debug, ArcMap application was opened. I couldn't find the toolbar docked anywhere on the ArcMap toolbar. I went to "Customize" -> "Add-in Manager" and the add-in being debugged was not there. Then I tried "Add From File...", located the "esriaddin" file and clicked "Install Add-in". It populated a message box saying "No GUI components found in this Add-In."
I made some Google searches but haven't got any luck to reach a solution yet.
What was I missing? Has anyone come across the same issue and any direction?
Thanks in advance!

Try clicking build first, then open the arcmap separately and check the add-in manager inside of arcmap to see if it got added to the application. If so, you should be able to find it and turn the toolbar on.

I'm not sure about .Net, but I debugged this issue for the Java SDK. You have to make sure you are using the correct versions for compiling. In java, it was an old archive version of jdk1.6 32 bit.
Then I was referencing something wrong inside the xml document. I had changed the name of my JAR file (taken from project name by the ArcObjects SDK). In the xml document it was still pointing towards the old name.
This may not help you, but if anyone else searches this error and is using tje Java SDK, hopefully it will help.

I struggled with this same issue with a 10.0 add in. We had a 10.1 update that worked with 10.1 but trying to install it to 10.2.2 gave me that exact error. So much for upward compatible! I then tried to build 10.2.2 code and kept having this error. Others mentioned needing to build to x86 so I did that although the 10.1 was on Win7-64 and ran with AnyCPU....
I believe the final key for me was in the config file. I had set version to 10.2.2 As soon as I changed that to 10.2, the darn add-in installed just fine. Nice waste of a day for an extra '.2'

Where to get an older pbacc.dll for PowerBuilder

I try to run a program which was build upon PowerBuilder version 10.2.1.9637 on a Windows 10 computer. After startup it shows an error message:
Error loading library. Please check whether PowerBuilder Accessibility library can be located in the path.
Doing some research I found out that there is a pbaccess***.dll needed to get the program run under Windows 10. However, is there a way to get this .dll since I do not own this specific version of PowerBuilder?
Or are there any other workarounds to get the program run?
This is from an earlier build of PB 10.2.1, but you can see if it works.

You would have to get pbacc100.dll from the application developer. Alternately you can disable accessibility in control panel.

Unable to install My program. Mostly has to do with Crystal Reports

Okay, This question has probably been asked before but I can't seem to solve it with anything that I've seen.
I published my program and tried setting it up on another computer. At first it gave me this error:
"Unable to install or run the application. the application requires that assembly microsoft.reportviewer.processingobjectmodel version 9.0.0.0 be installed in the global assembly cache (GAC) first."
After searching I found that including everything in the 'Application Files' before publishing made that go away, only to be replaced with
'Application cannot be started. Contact the application vendor.'
After searching and doing a lot of things on the computer that I want this program to be setup on, I checked (Crystal Report Basic For Visual Studio 2008 (x84, x64)) in the Prerequisite.
On the Computer that I need this program on, it won't download this at all. It gives me a message box to either retry or cancel.
Some pages suggest that the Crystal report package that automatically downloads is not the right one. When I tried following what is said here, I got stuck because the links won't open.
Any help appreciated, It's frustrating because I've been working on this program for months and I get stuck on the last step :/
oh .. and ... I don't know if this has anything to do with this, but I built the program using Windows 7, then updated to Windows 8, then updated to Windows 10.
I finally managed to make it work :)
Here is what I did:
I followed this video and I was able to install my program to the other computer.
When I opened it, I got a problem that the program can't find my MS Access DataBase, so I went to the setup project -> Right click -> add -> File, And I navigated to my original project's folder and added everything in there, and Viola! ... It works :)
I hope this helps somebody else :)

How to make expandable list for Windows10 Universal App?

I am newbie to windows universal app development and I need an expadable list. In the past I did it with WPToolkit for Windows Phone 8 but I read that it is not available for UWP. I see ExpanderRT project and tried to use it but I couldn't be successfull. I add Shared project of ExpanderRT as an existing project to my solution and use as in the screenshot. Now I'm taking the namespace error.
I have a time limit. I need fast and easy working soluton for expandable list. Thank you all for your help.
[UPDATE]
I tried https://github.com/brendankowitz/ZeroProximity.Accordion as #Osman said. But I'm not sure if it is the right decision. Because I see the expandable list and it works but project build throw error as in the screenshot below. I install it via nuget. It wasn't installed in the first place. I run as a administrator and changed project.json 's Copy to Output Directory value to Copy always. Then it was installed.
So my questions; Is this error important? Will it create problems when I want to put the app on store? I don't know how to act to this error, please help!

You can use the library given in the link above. I used it on our UWP project.It works great.
Hope this helps,

Can't use background task in Windows Phone 8.1 (the ID_CAP_NETWORKING required, but it's included in the manifest)

I need to update my Windows Phone application tile by downloading and parsing JSON. So I'm using Microsoft HTTP Client Libraries.
And I've always got the exception Use of networking APIs requires the ID_CAP_NETWORKING capability to be defined in the application manifest when I'm trying to debug background task.
But my manifest included ID_CAP_NETWORKING as required (screenshot https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xaf1/t31.0-8/10750111_821340111262044_6461333323674658178_o.jpg).
I don't know what to do. I tried rebuild or recreate the app, but this didn't help. Also I can't find any documentation or an answer on the internet.
Can you please write, what can I do to solve this problem?
This is demo project http://1drv.ms/1yjHm49 with reproduced problem (project's name is 'Meduza. Windows Phone').
I debug my application on Lumia 720 (if it can help).
I re-downloaded your project and now I get your error. So I thought, I must of done something before launching your project that fixed it.
It took me while, but I can get your project to work by doing this
Unzip project to directory
Open Project
Clean Project
Add Internet (Client and Server) in Package.appxmanifest file (make sure you save it before exiting)
Put the break points in your background task
And it works. So a combination of Clean Build + editing the Package.appxmanifest did the trick for me.

MonoTouch / MonoDevelop: "Did not get project info" when opening xib-files

So, I just installed everything needed for MonoTouch on a MacBook running Lion.
I followed the steps/instructions to install (see here) and then created a new solution. When I open my xib-file I get the following error (in MonoDevelop):
Error updating Objective-C type information. Did not get project info
System.Exception: Did not get project info
at MonoDevelop.Macdev.XcodeSyncing.XcodeProjectTracker.UpdateTypes(IProgressMonitor monitor, Boolean force) [0x00029 in /Users/builder/data/lanes/monodevelop-mac-2.8.6.4/ca00645c/source/monodevelop/main/src/addins/MonoDevelop.MacDev/XcodeProjectTracker.cs:351
I have done nothing else than installiong Xcode, then the Framework/Runtime (MRE-2.10.8_3), then MonoDevelop (2.8.6.4) and then MonoTouch.
Anyone seen this before? I can't find a single thing in this specific error on the net.
It seems that I needed to close the solution, restart the program and then some form of "updating xcode"-thing was running. Then it worked with getting the designer up. Of course, I can't see the Assistant Editor and create those outlets, but that's another issue...
I fixed this issue by building the application, and then double clicking the xib file.
I fixed this issue by building the application, closing and reopening the solution, and then double clicking the xib file.
