Having Issue Binding Team Foundation Server Project in Visual Studio

So I connected to a project via myproject.visualstudio.com, I then clicked "Soure Control Explorer": enter image description here

Then I clicked "Get Latest Version":

enter image description here

This download the source code and correctly mapped a local directory for me. But my project is not under source control in the solution explorer, if I right click on the solution I see: enter image description here

Which I click and then see error: enter image description here

After reaching this error on the internet I go to File -> Source Control -> Advanced -> Change Source Control to rebind:

enter image description here

And I see: enter image description here

In this screenshot I clicked Bind for the sln. But it makes checkout to bind to the server: enter image description here

I just want Visual Studio integrated solution explorer Get Latest and Checkin functions, I got latest from TFS and do not understand what the big deal is with getting Visual Studio 2012 to understand.

So far you are on the right track. If you continue and Check-Out the SLN file it will add the bindings to the SLN and csproj files. These are some extra properties in the csproj file and a new GlobalSection in the SLN file. With these Visual Studio will be fully aware of TFS and provide status icons in File Explorer and all the other goodness.
