Is Microsoft Visual Studio available for Mac?

I am wondering if the program has a Mac version available for download.

That strikes me as a little bit of overkill for nothing.

Sap business one studio 9.0 for microsoft visual studio 2010

Hi Experts,
After added a new project, Sap business one 9.0 Add-on Project, that project can't be loaded in Visual Studio 2010.
When try to re-load the project in the Solution Explorer, the project stays as (unavailable), and the next line says, The project file was unloaded.
I'm using :
- Windows 7 professionnel 64 bits. (With no virtual machine)
- Sap business one studio for Microsoft studio 32 bits. (Visual Studio 2010)
- Sap business one studio 32 bits. (PL12)
I've already tried to :
- Reload the project in the contextual menu.
- Run Visual Studio as Administrator.
So VisualStudio, B1, DI-API and SBO Studio are all on the same version. (32 bits)
[I've installed before B1 64 bits, but it did't work with visual studio 2010, because visual studio 2010 is available just in 32 bit version. so i uninstalled everything]
NB : I'm still in evaluation period of SAP Businness one 9.0.
Can u please help me to solve this problem.
Thank you a lot.
Regards,
Amine

Hi Anil,
According to the error message "User cancelled installation" and the log "Process exited with code 1602", it seems that it is you cancelled the installation that cause the install fail. Is that true? If yes, please reinstall
it without cancelling it. You can take the following steps:
Download "Visual Studio 2010 Tools for Office Runtime" from
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42513 .
Run the downloaded vstor_redist.exe with admin.

Total No of pages different in report printed using Crystal Report XI R2 vs SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio (File Version 13.8)

Currently in our application, we are using Crystal Report XI R2 for generating the reports. We are in the process of upgrading the Crystal Report to SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio (File Version 13.8). I updated that on my machine and all the reports work fine. I didn't have to modify any of the reports.
However when comparing the reports, we found that there are few reports on which the total no. of pages differ from the report displayed using Crystal Report XI R2 vs SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio (File Version 13.8). Comparing the reports, it looks all the data that were fit on one page earlier with version XI R2 doesn't fit on the same page with version 13.8, thereby increasing the page counts.
The fonts, page margins everything set on report itself. Nothing being set in the code.
Both the application is using the same report that is pulling the data from the same database. Our application is a web application.
Any suggestion, why this is happening.
Thanks.
Sanjay

I am not sure what is being compared here?
CRXI R2 designer to CRVS?
CR XI R2 in some version of .NET to CRVS?
CR XI R2 using RDC SDK to CRVS?
Also, is this happening on your development computer or after you deploy?
If you compare the the "Page setup" options dialog between reports that work and those that do not work, do you see any difference?
Is this a web or a win app?
Are you seeing the same issue when viewing and exporting - say export to PDF?
What is the printer driver used and it's version?

"SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio" (CRforVS_13_0_9.exe) has error during Installation.

Hello,
I just tried to install the new file CRforVS_13_0_9.exe on a Windows 7 Ultimate machine.
I have Visual Studio 2013 and wanted Crystal Reports to be fully integrated with it.
By the way, I had already uninstalled CRforVS_13_0_8.exe before I attempted the installation of CRforVS_13_0_9.exe.
However, the installation failed with the following error message...
"The installation failed prematurely." The error dialog box with a full error message is attached.
It may be significant to note that even after what looks like a failed installation, that "SAP Crystal Reports, version for Microsoft Visual Studio" (ver. 13.0.9.1312) does show up in the Programs and Features Control Panel).
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. Please advise.

This used to be quite common on WIN XP and Vista and it was an MS issue. Googling I found the following that may help:
Fast and easy Windows Error Code 2753 resolution
Error 2753 Preventing Uninstall&#47;Reinstall - Microsoft Community

For now, this is the only report of the error with SP 9, so it will be good to check if the above helps.

What is the link for free download of Microsoft Visual Studio 2005?

Hi,
Does any body knows the link for a free download of Microsoft Visual Studio 2005? I need the Visual C++ 8.0 to install EBS R12 for Windows.
I used to have the link now I cannot find it.
Please help.
Thanks,
Amorsolo

Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 is not available for free download and you will have to purchase the software from the vendor. I believe only the express edition is available for download, but this does not help as you need to have the Standard or the Professional edition to make it working with R12.Hi,
Sorry took me so long to talk to my friends to see if I can borrow MS Visual Studio. Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 is expensive and my friends don't have it.
Can I use Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Professional for this purpose?
When I re-install EBS R12, which is the correct path (below) # 1 or # 2?
1) s_MSDEVdir=C:\Microsoft_Visual_Studio\VC
2) s_MSDEVdir=C:\Microsoft_Visual_Studio\VC\bin
Thanks,

Alternative to Adobe Flash Player for Macs running Yosemite

Is there a reliable and secure alternative to Adobe Flash Player for Macs running Yosemite? I keep getting websites telling me that I can see a video because my Flash Player needs to be updated. But I haven't wanted to install it as I've heard negative things about it and Macs. Is there an alternative to Flash Player? And if so, what is it and where do I find it?

Being that Flash is very insecure, I've completely removed it from my MacBook Pro. The best alternative is to uninstall Flash from your system and download Google Chrome as it has Flash build into it and you're not vulnerable unless you're browsing in Chrome. If Safari is your main browser, as mine is, then you need to open Safari Preferences, go to Advanced and click the checkbox for 'Show Develop menu in menu bar'. Once you've done this, the Develop menu bar menu shows up and you can click it and choose 'Open Page With' and choose Chrome. It is a bit cumbersome, but it removes the vulnerability when browsing in Safari as many sites are now using HTML5. Hope this help.

Unable to Open Script task in SSIS packages in Microsoft visual studio

TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio
The task with the name "Map Network Drive" and the creation name "Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.ScriptTask.ScriptTask, Microsoft.SqlServer.ScriptTask, Version=11.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91" is not registered
for use on this computer.
Contact Information:
Script Task
BUTTONS:
OK

Hi Covaikumar,
The issue may occur because the Script Task is not installed properly. Please check whether the Microsoft.SqlServer.ScriptTask.dll file exists in the following folders (supposing it is a 64-bit platform):
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\DTS\Tasks
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\110\DTS\Tasks
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL\Microsoft.SqlServer.ScriptTask\v4.0_11.0.0.0__89845dcd8080cc91
If the Microsoft.SqlServer.ScriptTask.dll file is missing in any of the folders, copy one (from the other folders or a different working SSIS server) to the folder. Alternatively, you can also use the command line tool gacutil.exe to install the task assembly
into the global assembly cache (GAC).

Xiaoying is a program manager in Microsoft Visual Studio Office Developer Tools team | This post is provided "as-is"

We want to provide customization of our applications (C++ and .Net C# both). Evaluating VSTA, it looks like a good fit, but really not good enough examples and documentation.
I have few questions or concerns -
1. What are the differences/similarities with VSTA 2.0, Can we try or use VSTA 2.0 examples to understand VSTA 2012?
2. Can we have some detail example for VSTA 2012 like the ones provided with VSTA 2.0 (e.g. - shapeApp samples which by the way no longer available for downloading!!! ).
3. The given documentation ("VSTA Sample Host Integration.docx") and example only illustrates the part which loads Visual Studio, creates, saves, compiles and runs a template project on C#.
4. No documentation available on how to work with VB projects/scripts in VSTA 2012.
5. Document tells nothing about how to provide host application's APIs for customization or overwrite any host object by scripting. In VSTA 2.0 I think there was a concept of Proxy classes, do we have similar concept
here too?
6. Debugging part is also not complete in the documentation. Starting the external process and running the Addin is not clear.
Please provide more elaborate documentation if possible. Thanks!
Hi Xiaoying,
Could you answer on questions above?

Launching VB6 Editor after installing Visual Studio 2013 results in "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visual Studio..."

I have had various versions of Visual Studio installed beside Visual Basic 6.0 Enterprise for some time with no problems, most recently Visual Studio 2012 Premium.
I recently installed Visual Studio 2013 Premium, and now every time I open VB6 I get a dialog that says "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2013" that shows a progress bar. After it finishes (30 seconds or
so), it launches again and again and finally VB6 will open. This happens with each instance of VB6, regardless if I've already done it once and never run VS2013 in between.
If I cancel the dialog, I get this error message in a dialog: "Error 1712. One or more of the files required to restore your computer to its previous state could not be found. Restoration will not be possible." Several more "Please wait"...
dialogs will appear and if I continue to cancel, eventually I'll get the VB6 editor. It appear to work fine despite the error messages.
It seems to me that the VS2013 installer flagged some dll's or other files to be rolled back whenever starting VB6. It doesn't appear to be necessary, and I'd like to avoid playing the "Please wait" wack-a-cancel-button game before launching each
instance of VB6 (or waiting several minutes for no reason). So how do I fix this?
Note: I've seen something similar happen in Outlook on a different PC when upgrading from 2010 to 2013. The same sort of "Please wait"... dialog would appear each time I opened Outlook. Judging by the "similar" questions that popped up when
entering this forum post, I'd say this is a general problem with upgrading older versions or installing newer versions of major Microsoft software side-by-side.
/* Don Reynolds */

I found the answer!
I was having the exact same issue, and I was search for a solution and I happened across the following thread: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/f4b0fd38-f4f9-41ea-bd8d-834203a175d2/building-visual-studio-2010-project-triggers-please-wait-while-windows-configures-visual-studio?forum=vssetup&prof=required
Scroll a small bit down, and there is a post by Barry Wang explaining that you need to use event viewer to find out what is missing. Anyway, I opened event viewer, then open VS 6, then hit refresh in the event viewer (under Windows Logs -> Application)
and saw a warning message from MsiInstaller. It gave me the following message:
Detection of product '{9C593464-7F2F-37B3-89F8-7E894E3B09EA}', feature 'Visual_Studio_Professional_x86_enu', component '{E3FF99AA-78B9-4A06-8A74-869E9F65E1FE}' failed. The resource 'C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\URTInstallPath_GAC\' does
not exist.
I opened an elevated command prompt, I navigated to the C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework folder and verified that 'URTInstallPath_GAC' didn't exist, and then I did "md URTInstallPath_GAC".
Closed and reopened VS 6, and it instantly opened - no "Please wait" message.
Now this may or may not be the same problem you are having (problem is - I have had it happen on two separate computers now with VS 6 and VS 2013 installed), but it should point you in the right direction. In fact, you should be able to use the Event Viewer
for anytime the "Please wait" message shows up for any application, and then once there find out what is really missing.

Microsoft Visual Studio - Unable to load DLL 'librfc32.dll'

Hi,
I'm experiencing the following problem:
When trying to establish a connection between SAP BPC MS and our SAP NW BW system.
I've created a new Integration Services project in Business Intelligence Development Studio. The issue comes up when I try to test the connection:
TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio

I keep getting the same error.
