Visual Studio error when trying to open a Feature in a SharePoint Project (An exception occurred while calling 'OnImportsSatisfied')

I am getting the following error message in both Visual Studio 2012 and Visual Studio 2013 when I try to open any "Feature" in a SharePoint 2013 project.
An exception occurred while calling the 'OnImportsSatisfied' method on type 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.SharePoint.Designers.Package.ViewModels.FeatureViewModel'.
(the stack trace then continues on for ages - shown in full below)
I _think_ this started happening when I ran Windows Update recently.
This happens for both old and new projects, both Sandbox and Farm solutions.
I have tried:
Removing all Windows Updates from the past week
Removing all previous versions of Visual Studio (2012)
Completely uninstalling and reinstalling Visual Studio (with reboots inbetween)
Installing VS2013 Update 1
Nothing that I do seems to fix this ..
Full Error:

Hi,
Please check that whether you have installed the Microsoft Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2012.

  • On Windows Platform, encounters error when trying to open an Indesign document created from MAC

    Hi all,
    On Windows Platform, encounters error when trying to open an Indesign document in INDD format created from Mac. Error received "Either the file does not exist, you do not have permission, or the file may be in use by other application". I am currently using Adobe Indesign CC 9.2 Trial version.
    Kindly advise how can i open this document on windows platform and allows me to edit the document.
    Thanks!
    With Rgds,
    Fiona Choy

    Normally there is no problem to open any INDD opening on Windows, when created on the Mac.
    But Mac user are often not aware on the naming limitations. A file name must not contain /, \, |, :
    It should not contain any extended character, it is not a primary problem but will be, if something links to that file, so avoid also: ÄÖÜäöüß+&
    You can use all other non A-Z a-z, 0-9 and - and  _
    I personally would also recommend to avoid spaces.
    This is valid for the INDD file itself but also for all linked content.

  • I get the following error when trying to open a pdf file... '*pdf.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read"

    I get the following error when trying to open a pdf file... '*pdf.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read". I am able to open pdf files in IE and other programs.

    I am encountering the same problem -- though with .qfx files from my bank. This worked fine in Firefox 31 ESR, but since upgrading to Firefox 33.0, I get the "<name>.qfx.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read" when I attempt to download. (I should add that downloading PDF statements from the same site works fine, and that the qfx downloads work fine in IE and Chrome.)
    I tried safe mode, it is still broken. Tried v34 beta, no luck. I reverted to version 31, it works again.
    I guess I will stick with the older version until a solution is found...or just use an alternate browser to download my financial data.

  • I just agreed to a update of iTunes and now I get a "language" error when trying to open it.

    I just agreed to an update of iTunes on my imac (running OS-X 10.8.4) and now I get an error when trying to open iTunes.  The error is: "This version of iTunes has not been correctly localized for this language. Please run the English version."  What? 
    I'm not a tecchie and could really use some step-by-step instructions on how to get my Itunes working again!  I've never changed the language on my Mac...have no idea where this language error came from.
    Thanks!

    Check if this make sense to you
      Why, when I try
         to run a self-service application I see an error similar to "oracle.apps.fnd.framework.OAException:
         Application: FND, Message Name: FND_NO_REGION_CODE. Tokens: REGION =
         WFNTFWORKLISTFNPAGE; REGIONAPPLID = 601"?
    This can occur when the OS locale is set
    differently from the database locale. For example, if the OS locale setting is:
    LC_CTYPE=en_UK and the
    Oracle locale setting is: NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1
    then you may see this error. To get around this error, in jserv.properties add
    the following line:
    wrapper.env.copy=NLS_LANG
    Though this is from the note related to 11i, it may help in you in getting to problem

  • Visual C++   Errors When trying to update ITunes on Win 8.1

    Visual C++   Errors When trying to update ITunes on Win 8.1

    Steve, glad that you solved it yourself, but it might be worth taking on board that the steps you mention have not been sufficient for many people which is why Apple and others like myself have been offering somewhat deeper advice. Perhaps reiterating what has often already been suggested in such threads is not really necessary.
    Not that you've asked for a critique of your style, but the first sentence of your post above that you are copying elsewhere is appropriate in this thread where you are replying directly to me, anywhere else it perhaps suggests that others should have been able to do likewise and comes over a tad arrogant, though I'm sure that isn't the intention. I wouldn't include it...
    All the best.

    Did you change your JDK path by any chance? Also you are getting a strange error message. It is trying to point to both D:\OracleBIData\jobmanager and C:\OracleBIData\jobmanager. Is there anything that you changed prior to doing this?

  • "The file is damaged and could not be repaired" error when trying to open a PDF in Reader

    A few of our employess (only 3 out of over 100 so far) have been getting the error, "The file is damaged and could not be repaired" when trying to open some PDFs. Other people are able to open the same PDF files with no error. It's happening on about 10% of the time. I've read a bunch of threads here with this isue and tried some suggested fixes and nothing has resolved the issue. Here is what I have found works and does not work and the info on their computers:
    Computers:
    1 Dell Vostro desktop running WIndows 7
    1 Toshiba Satellite C55 runnign Windows 8
    1 Samsung ATIV Book 4 running Windows 8
    All using Adobe Reader XI but we did uninstall that version and tried previous versions and still got the error.
    Did Not Work:
    As suggested by the company that we use online for claims adjustments where this error is occuring, we tried using a different PDF creator since the files were created using a free PDF creator by the employees. PDF995 and PDFcreator (pdfforge) did not resolve the issue. I then created the PDFs with my Adobe Acrobat, uploaded from my computer to the online program, and that did not resolve the issue.
    Saving the file to hard drive and then opening in Adobe did not work.
    Turning off Protected Mode and Enhanced Security did not work.
    Compatibility View settings enabled in Internet Explorer 10 did not resolve the issue. The previously mentioned claims adjustment software company we use online was code for IE so is not fully compatible with other browsers.
    That being said I did try to open the PDF files in Chrome and it also did not work. Same error message.
    Does work:
    I download the file they cannot open onto my hard drive, open in Adobe Acrobat, Save as a pdf, then email it to them and they can open it via email attachment.
    If they close the error and continue trying to open the file over and over sometimes it will eventually open.
    Is there a setting in Windows that is preventing them from opening a small % of files some of the time? Thanks in advance for any help!
    James

    If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
    The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
    Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review.
