Xamarin Studio Crash when opening/creating a project - xamarin-studio

I want to try on Xamarin Studio on Mac. However, when I open/create a project (no matter iPhone/Android). The Studio crashed as shown in the image (click here to view image). I have re-installed it but the error still the same. Anyone can help?

Maybe the best option for you is to go on Xamarin's Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.xamarin.com/
And create an issue with the content of your crash message. I'm sure they will quickly reply.

XFPageRendererView error on XAML previewer

I am developing Xamarin.Forms on Visual studio 2015, I have a mac connected to my PC, when trying to preview by the option
(View > OtherWindows >Xamrin.Forms Previewer) The android preview shows the error below
But the IOS preview is working fine and is updated as soon as I change the xaml code
How can I fix this ? What I have already tried are
Rebuilding the project and solution
Installing the latest android build tool
Restarting Visual studio
Updating Android SDK
Installing a x64 bit JDK and mapping its path in visual studio
none of these are working. I would also like to know if ANDROID NDK has something to do with this (currently running android-ndk-r10e) and if it is necessary to update that as well ?? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
I'm having the exact same issue . I re-posted your topic in Xamarin forum . Hope that is ok : https://forums.xamarin.com/discussion/87991/xfpagerendererview-error-on-xaml-previewer/p1?new=1
I'm using ndk r13b - same issue

Visual Studio for Mac - Can't read or write any code

I have a problem with Visual Studio for Mac. When I make a new project or I open an existent one, I can't read correctly the code or even write. The code is correctly, in others Text Editors looks fine, but in Visual don't.
Do somebody know about this error? thanks.
Update Visual Studio.
(Click 'Visual Studio Community' in the top bar -> Check For Updates)
This must have been an early bug because I updated to 7.0.1 (Build 24) and it fixed the issue for me.

Visual Basic Command Line Compiler has stopped working

Yesterday, I could work with Visual Studio 2010 without any problem. However, today after I turned on the computer and tried to open my project (Web application with Visual Basic.NET) on VS2010 again, I got a message box showing as below:
Later, I found out after I tried deleting suo file that this message box will show up whenever I open some file in Visual Studio so I tried to run the application. Then, I found another message box popped up as below:
And after I close the message box, I finally got this window
It says:
Compilation Error
Compiler Error Message: The compiler failed with error code -1073741511.
I have searched for the solution through the internet. I have found a few methods that might solve the solution such as scanning for virus, using clean boot. I have also tried repairing and uninstalling VS2010 and .NET framework but none still work. Right now, I have no idea what I should to do make it work again.
Anyway, I realized that there is Windows auto update when I turned off the computer. Not so sure if this related to the problem (I used Window 8.1).
After formatting Drive C to reinstalling everything again, I found out that the reason might be Windows update. I have started from reinstalling Windows 8, all necessary programs (except Visual Studio and SQL Management Studio) and all window updates required for upgrading to Windows 8.1.
When I successfully got to Windows 8.1, I created system restore point and try installing VS2010 and all windows update. The result had caused the same error I posted in this thread.
After that, I restored back to original state and installed VS2010 first. Then installed some of windows updates. This time, I decided to install all updates except the ones that have publish date after 10/11/2015. The result is satisfied. I don't get this error again.
Later, Hans Passant help me find the actual cause of this problem. Please see this link:

No the error is not the same. But the error message you provided is only half and cannot know which template/component is giving the error.
Provide the full error to help you better.

Visual Basic Compiler keeps crashing

The question really says it all. For one project I am working on, the Visual Basic Compiler crashes resulting in me having to restart my IDE.
It looks like it crashes when copying a PDB file and XML file for the web site for obj/debug to the output folder.
Has anyone experienced similar crashes? If so how did you repair it?
Are there any crash logs stored anywhere??
I am using visual Studio version
8.0.50727.762 (SP .050727-7600)
After contincually hitting send error report to microsoft I finally got a little message box saying "We think this might be your problem" with this Link
I believe this is my problem... I have still to obtain the hot fix
Do you actually get an error message or code when it crashes, or do you just get the "Visual Studio stopped working" error message?
I'd second trying to uninstall, reinstall, and reapply SP1, just to make sure it isn't something with your installation. I've never had the VB compiler crash on me, and I'd imagine that permissions problems and other exceptions moving a file would be completely covered within the compiler's internals.
You can try using the event viewer in Administrative Tools to see if any logs were recorded.
Looks like you aren't running Visual Studio 2005 SP1. We had tons of VBC crashes before SP1 -- it was a wonder they even made to RTM on the product. Just terrible. Install Service Pack 1 and your problems will most likely go away.
Have you already tried cleaning your solution/project?
Sometimes the .suo, .ncb and other files maintained by Visual Studio get corrupted resulting in crashes during complilation or debugging.
Simply delete .SUO file and get Nirvana :)
