votes

I have installed visual studio mac on my mac.

I have installed the tfs extension on visual studio mac.

I have connected to the tfs server in our server in office.

It successfully connected and it display the collection. BUT it says it has 0 projects. there should be 4 projects in that collection. User has admin permissions so it shouldnt be the case. Also it does show projects in tfs browser and vs in windows. what would be the problem? thanks

What version of VS and TFS are you using? – Andy Li-MSFT
@AndyLi-MSFT thanks for your interes tfs is 2017. it was 2013, then I have updated to 2017. I am using visual studio for mac 2017 7.6.3 – smoothumut
@AndyLi-MSFT by the way while I try to connect with credentials, even though I entered the right credentials, it doesnt connect(domain textbox is empty). Until I just enter a random text in NTLM Domain textbox. Then it connects the server but it doesnt display any project – smoothumut
What's the repository type for that 4 projects? Git or TFVC? – Eddie Chen - MSFT
@EddieChen-MSFT they are TFVC. By the way the extension gives error. when I enable the extension and then restart visual studio, the visual studio crashes. I have to reinstall visual studio. it is a pain. then when I install it and restart it, the same things happen – smoothumut

Make sure you match the requirements:

Requirements :

  • Visual Studio Community, Professional, or Enterprise for Mac version 7.5 or later.
  • Visual Studio Team Services, or Team Foundation Server 2013 and later.
  • A Project in Visual Studio Team Services or Team Foundation Server, configured to use Team Foundation Version Control.

TFS Authentication:

To connect to TFS, enter the server details and your account credentials. Enter a domain to use NTLM authentication, otherwise leave blank to use basic authentication. Select Add Server:

And for your specific issue -- I do not see any / all of my projects ：

After authenticating you should see the list of projects. By default, only TFS projects to are shown. To see other types of projects, check the "See all projects" box.

Keep in mind that projects that are on the server will not appear if you don't have the correct privileges.

Please see Connecting to Team Foundation version control for details.

UPDATE:

Just try to uninstall the vs for mac, and install it again with the latest version, installed the latest extension. That should be work.
