Xamarin simulator does not work

Hello I have an issue

I have a Macbook and instaled Visual Studio and Xcode, I made a Xamarin app and connected my PC with my Mac, but when I launch the simulator is black.

I tried to create the same Xamarin app (the default one with a label) and it runs on the mac simulator.

I also tried to make a native Xcode project just in case and the simulator works

Someone was saying that you need good internet to make your PC and mac talk100713-screenshot-2.png100732-screenshot-3.png

Hi EduardoGomez-1870,

Welcome to our Microsoft Q&A platform!

You can try to troubleshoot the problem by referring to the following steps.

1.Update your Visual Studio to the latest one.
2.Close VS and delete "bin" and "obj" folder under your project.
3.Reconnect the mac;
4.Restart your mac and windows

If the problem is not resolved, please uncheck "Remote Simulator to Windows" in Tools->Options->Xamarin->iOS Settings. And use the simulator on your Mac. Then report a problem on Developer Community.

Regards,
Kyle
