"Starting Mac agent: IDB 4.1.1.3 ..." was pending when connect to Mac with Xamarin Mac Agent from VS2015

I tried to connect to Mac with Xamarin Mac Agent from VS2015. The network connection between mac & windows was ok, and I validated it with Step 8 here

I input user & password and connect, no feedback message. On Visual studio status bar, "Starting Mac agent: IDB 4.1.1.3 ..." was pending.

BTY, I can build Xamarin.IOS successfully, but can't run ios simulator from VS2015. And I've tried this solution, but no use for me.

Does anyone know what's wrong?

I faced a similar issue when I updated xamarin on visual studio. I resolved this by:

  1. Updating xamarin studio. Go to Xamarin Studio > Check for Updates
  2. Deleting folders %localappdata%/Xamarin/MonoTouch from my windows machine and $HOME/Library/Caches/Xamarin/mtbs folder from my mac.
  3. Restarting both xamarin and visual studio.
