Open your solution in VS expand the packages folder and right click your Xamarin.Forms package. Each .csproj in your .sln should be on the same version if not update update it to the version to match that or just update all of them to the latest XF.

It will look a bit different if you're on windows, which has the nice package manager, so in that case you can right click on your open solution and go to manage nuget packages for solution.
