When you create app using Visual Studio Tools for Apache Cordova, you have many options for emulating and deploying your app on iOS:

If an app creates a virtual MIDI port (e.G. Animoog), midimux will create a copy of that port on the Mac/Pc, naming it 'Animoog @ iPad'. If an app does not create a virtual MIDI port, midimux always gives the possibility to create virtual ports manually. These can then be used by any apps on any of the iOS devices to pipe data to the Mac/Pc. Or other iDevices. At the same time;).

  • Simulate in a browser, which provides basic validation of layout and CSS. (This does not require installation of the remote agent for iOS.)

  • iOS Simulator, which requires installation and configuration of the remote agent when running from Visual Studio.

  • iOS Simulator using a service such as MacInCloud, which allows you to install the remote agent without a physical Mac device.

  • iOS device, which also requires installation and configuration of the remote agent when running from Visual Studio.

Mac

If you run into errors building for iOS, see these tips and workarounds.

Port

If you have configured your Mac as described in the article iOS Setup Guide, you can build and run your app on the iOS Simulator. The iOS Simulator runs on your Mac.

Note

We recommend that you use the iOS Simulator if you have a personal Mac or if you’re running Windows from a Mac using virtualization technology such as Parallels .

To run your app on the iOS Simulator

  1. Make sure that you have installed required software, including the remote agent, on a Mac that meets all system requirements, and that you have started the remote agent.

  2. Make sure that you have configured Visual Studio for iOS development, the host name or IP address, port, and security PIN in Visual Studio.

  3. With your app open in Visual Studio, choose iOS from the Solution Platforms list. If you don’t see this list, choose Solution Platforms from the Add/Remove Buttons list to display it.

  4. In the simulator list, choose Simulator – iPhone 5 or another iOS simulator.

  5. Press F5 to start the app.

    If the remote agent is set up correctly, Visual Studio deploys the app to the iOS Simulator on your Mac.

Tip

If you are running a version of the iOS Simulator with a Retina display on a lower-resolution Mac with a non-Retina display, you may need to scale the emulator to 50% so the app will fit on the screen (choose Window, Scale).

If you have configured the remote build agent on your Mac as described in the article iOS Setup Guide, you can build and run your app on an iOS device that is connected to your Mac or PC.

Troubleshooting? Let's fix it

See the troubleshooting tips in the iOS Guide

To run your app on an iOS device

  1. If you are running your app on a device that is connected to your Windows PC, make sure that you have installed iTunes on the PC.

    iTunes is not required if you are running your app on a device that is connected to your Mac.

  2. Make sure that you have installed required software, including the remote agent, on a Mac that meets all system requirements, and that you have started the remote agent.

  3. Make sure that the iOS device has been provisioned with the same provisioning profile as the Mac. For more information about provisioning, see Create a provisioning profile.

  4. Make sure that you have configured Visual Studio for iOS development, the host name or IP address, port, secure mode, and security PIN in Visual Studio.

  5. With your app open in Visual Studio, choose iOS from the Solution PlatformsFree video editing software mac app store. list.

    If you don’t see this list, choose Solution Platforms from the Add/Remove Buttons list to display it.

  6. In the device list, choose Local Device to run your app on a device connected to your PC, or choose Remote Device to run your app on a device connected to your Mac.

  7. Press F5 to start the app.

    If the remote agent and is set up correctly and your iOS device is connected, the app will run on your device.

    If you are running the app on your PC (Local Device), iTunes will start and the iOS app will automatically be added to (or replaced in) your library. You can install or update the app on a connected device as you would any other iOS app.
