Can't connect to mac in visual studio

I'm trying to connect to mac in visual studio.

I did every step and I also connected to the Xamarin account.

In the Xamarin Mac Agent it found the mac which means I did the steps.

So sharing preferences are correctly configured at mac.

But when I try to connect to mac, after entering username and password it shows the following error:

Couldn't connect to MacBook.local. Please try again.

I don't know how I can solve this problem.

The Xamarin.iOS SDK and Xcode both need to be installed on the Mac you're trying to connect to. See Installing Xamarin.iOS on Windows and the step-by-step installation guides.

Once Xamarin is installed on both Mac and PC, you can check the log files for hints about any connectivity issues you may encounter.

  • Mac – ~/Library/Logs/Xamarin-[MAJOR.MINOR]
  • Windows – %LOCALAPPDATA%\Xamarin\Logs

You may also find the Connection Troubleshooting and general diagnostic info guides helpful.
