Cordova Visual Studio 2015 RC Community : Remote Device iOS

Question

I'm currently discovering Visual Studio 2015 RC Community to develop mobile applications with Cordova.

I have a Mac (OS X Yosemite) with the necessary tools to use the iOS Remote Agent from within Visual Studio. I have an iPad connected to my Mac to deploy a basic Cordova application on this device.

Unfortunately I don't understand why in the list of iOS devices, I have no "remote device" (as shown in the screenshot tutorial https://msdn.microsoft.com/fr-fr/library/dn757056.aspx ) to deploy the application on the iPad connected to my Mac.

How can I resolve this problem?

Thank you for your answsers ;-).

Answer 1

Are you using a localized VS version as this is a known issue in localized version? If so, then as a workaround, can you try copying %PROGRAMFILES(X86)%\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v14.0\ApacheCordovaTools\vs-mda-targets\iOSRemotEDevice.xml into the fr-FR folder. The string wont be localized though.
