Azure tools v 2.6 incompatibility with vs 2015 - azure

Just updated visual studio 2015, and I have a solution that has an API using azure tools v2.6, the update for visual studio had me install v2.7 azure tools.
I cannot convert the outdated project to v2.7 as it is asking me to, and 2.6 is not compatible with vs 2015. I need to access this project and continue working on it.
Anyone have this issue? Know of any work arounds?
Exact alert message:
This project is associated with Microsoft Azure Tools - v2.6 which is not supported in Visual Studio 2015. You must upgrade the project to target Microsoft Azure Tools -v2.7.
Download Microsoft Azure Tools -v2.7(already done)
Convert the project to target Microsoft Azure Tools -v2.7 (I can't, it is in production, and i don't have rights to do so)

Try this - If you still have access to VS 2013, install the 2.7 SDK for 2013, upgrade the project in 2013 and then try opening in 2015 w/ 2.7.

Can I use TFS 2015 Express with Visual Studio 2012 Professional

I need to migrate an old VSS 2005 source control database and I have downloaded & installed Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server Express 2015.
But I still have to use Visual Studio 2012 Professional (Reinstalled Team Explorer 2012 and then update 5). Trying to create a new project on TFS server throws error:
TF30172: You are trying to create a team project either without
required permission or with an older version of Team Explorer.
As I have added my account as TFS administrator I suppose the problem is with older version? Note that I have almost no experience with TFS, because I never needed it before. I cannot find any other means how to create a new project. (I planned to use this wizard).
Can I use TFS 2015 Express with Visual Studio 2012 Professional and if yes, how do I create a first empty project?
Yes, you are correct, only the latest version has "full" compatibility with the latest Team Foundation Server. You have to use the same Visual Studio of visual studio as the version of TFS that you're connecting to to create a team project.
If you're using TFS 2015 Update 2 or later then you can create a team project from the web as well.

How to enable Web Development feature in Visual Studio 2015?

I am trying to install Microsoft Azure SDK. I downloaded this version (2.9) of the SDK from here. And I am getting the following error in the picture.
I have Visual Studio 2013 and 2015 installed on my PC. Could it be some sort of compatibility issue. I read on some forum that it won't work if I have different versions of the Azure SDK installed on Visual Studio 2013 and 2015.
But I don't have the SDK installed on any of them. And I can't seem to find any Web Development Feature in the IDE either. Does anyone know how to resolve this?
Given the situation, the issue is most probably that the relevant modules for Web Development weren't installed when Visual Studio was installed. Those modules are not selected to be installed by default.
The solution is to simply re-run the setup and select "Modify".
On the list of modules, go to "Windows and Web Development".
You should get Microsoft Web Developer Tools in the list. Just select that and install. That should do the trick.
#alchemist is right but I had deleted the VS2015 installer long ago (right after installing). So I went to the Control Panel > Programs And Features > Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 Community with Updates > (right-click) > Change
This will bring up the visual studio installer. Click on Modify > Check Microsoft Web Developer Tools > Update.

VS2013 AZURE Missing Templates

I am on Windows 7 - It is completely up to date.
I am using Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows Desktop.
I have installed .NET AZURE SDK 2.4 (the latest)
I have restarted PC
And Yet, there are no AZURE templates when I want to make a new project.
Did you install the tools for VS? http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/ee405484.aspx
The tools are in the Azure SDK.
Problem was VS EXPRESS 2013 FOR DESKTOP does not support AZURE, you must use VS EXPRESS 2013 FOR WEB.
You can have both installed at the same time. You can actually run both at the same time.

Where can I download Azure SDK for Visual Studio 2010?

Has anyone recently tried to download Azure SDK for Visual Studio 2010? Going to the Azure site doesn't give the option any more; it only allows downloading SDK for VS2012 and VS2013.
Is VS2010 no longer supported?
Use the Web Platform Installer and search for "azure 2010".
The Azure 2.1 SDK is available for Visual Studio 2010 (with SP1).
Windows Azure SDK and Windows Azure Tools for Microsoft Visual Studio (March 2011)
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=15658
it should not give you any problems.
If you're trying to download the latest SDK (version 2.2), it is not supported for VS 2010. See this blog post from Scott Guthrie: http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2013/10/22/windows-azure-announcing-release-of-windows-azure-sdk-2-2-with-lots-of-goodies.aspx. You should be able to download/install earlier versions of SDK using Web Platform Installer.
Unfortunately, this is not working with Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate. The web platform installer is responding with a list of errors.

Installing Azure SDK on Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2

I am currently setting up a development VPC to test some new technology. I have installed VS 2010 Beta 2.
I now want to install the Azure development tools. The latest download that I have been able to find is the July CTP. This is suposed to work with Beta 1.
I get the following error message:
Visual Studio 2008 is currently installed but this product requires Service Pack 1. Please install SP1 and try again.
Windows Azure Tools for Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 requires the Visual Web Developer feature to be installed in Visual Studio 2008 SP1 (Standard or above).
Am I missing something or is it not possible to install it on Beta 2?
AFAIK Windows Azure Tools only supports VS 2010 Beta 1. I expect a new version with support for Beta 2 pretty soon though (at least when the PDC comes around.)
