Xamarin.Forms could not be updated

I am using Xamarin.Forms for Mac. I want to update Xamarin.Form package under .Droid project but I get the following error: 

Updating Xamarin.Forms...
Attempting to resolve dependency 'Xamarin.Android.Support.v4 (= 23.0.1.3)'.
Attempting to resolve dependency 'Xamarin.Android.Support.Design (= 23.0.1.3)'.
Attempting to resolve dependency 'Xamarin.Android.Support.v7.AppCompat (≥ 23.0.1.3)'.
Attempting to resolve dependency 'Xamarin.Android.Support.v7.CardView (= 23.0.1.3)'.
Attempting to resolve dependency 'Xamarin.Android.Support.v7.MediaRouter (= 23.0.1.3)'.
Looking for updates for 'Xamarin.Forms'...
Updating 'Xamarin.Forms' from version '1.3.5.6335' to '2.0.0.6490' in project 'testienjte.Droid'.
Already referencing a newer version of 'Xamarin.Android.Support.v4'.

Any idea how to solve this problem.

Xamarin.Forms 2.0.0.6490 is tied to a single version 23.0.1.3 of the Xamarin.Android.Support.v4.

The error message suggests that you have a newer version of Xamarin.Android.Support.v4 than Xamarin.Forms supports so you will need to uninstall Xamarin.Android.Support.v4 and then install the same version or just install the latest Xamarin.Forms NuGet package.
