resharper8 cannot find vs2012 on installation - visual-studio-2012

I'm installing resharper 8 (the latest till now) onto vs2012, but when I ran the .msi file, it says "unsatisfied requirement: microsoft visualstudio" which means resharper cannot detect any visual studio installed on on PC. But I do have VS 2012 ultimate version installed and registered.
Can anyone give me help?
My vs2012 has also update3 installed. I'm now trying update4.
Thanks in advance.

After having the same problem I looked more into it reading the system requirements - I didn't realize it doesn't work with Visual studio Express versions, I'm guessing that's the problem you're having.

mscvp80d.dll is missing. How to link against a more recent version? (MS Visualstudio 2012)

im trying to compile a solution in MS VS 2012 which was original written in MS VS 2005 (? I'm not sure but it is a much older version).
The compiling and linken works without any problems. But when I try to start the exe I'll get an error which says:
"msvcp80d.dll is missing from your computer"
I tried to install the old vc++ redist package, but this ships only with non debug version of the library.
Anyone knows how to force VS to link against a newer version of msvcp80d.dll. (should be msvcp110d.dll in this case). I already updated the complete solution without success. The plattformtoolset is set to "Visual Studio 2012 (v110)" but this seems to be ignored.
I would appreciate any help. Thanks in advance!

Microsoft.VisualStudio.Web.PasteJson.JsonPackage did not load properly

I have visual studio express 2012
and it was working fine earlier I had run my solution once. But now when I do it, there appears a dialog box with the message!
the Microsoft.VisualStudio.Web.PasteJson.JsonPackage, Microsoft.VisualStudio.Web.PasteJson package did not load correctly.
the problem may have been caused by a configuration changhe or by installation of another extension. You can get more information by exmamining the file
C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VWDExpress\11.0\Log.xml
continue to show this error message?
How do I get rid of this error?
I started to see this on the fresh windows & VS 2013 Ultimate with Update 2 installation.
To resolve the problem, close all Visual Studio instances head over to
C:\Users\<your users name>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\ComponentModelCache
and delete all the files in the folder.
It worked fine for me. Thanks to this article.
Not relevant to VS 2012 express, but I experienced this problem with VS 2013 Premium. I had recently added the productivity power tools extension. To get back up and running, I loaded Visual Studio in safe mode:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE>devenv /safemode
And un-installed the productivity tools. The errors went away.
You need to clear the ComponentModelCache folder or rename it. For Visual Studio 2013, it’s located in the %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0 folder.

I had Visual Studio 2013 Professional and I got the same error. I couldn't remove it until I repaired VS installation. It took a while but now it works fine.
I had this problem as I had an older version of VS2012 Express (release on Web Platform installer dated 15/08/2012).
Try installing 'Visual Studio 2012 Express for Web (Latest)' with release date 22/10/2012 from the Microsoft Web Platform Installer.
That is all I did and I no longer get those messages.

Visual Studio 2012 updates

How can I find What Update version I have in Visual Studio 2012? (update 1 or 2 or 3). HOw can I go back to update 1 so that I can build .dll which can be supported in windows XP? I am sorry It's not a programming question but highly appreciated for your answer. I'm stuck!
I have a following Error: Unable to load DLL 'xxx.dll': The specified procedure could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007F)
My Target OS is windows XP: 32 bit .NET 4.0.
Also Same dll works for windows 7 and other so I think there shouldn't be dependency problem.
Help -> About will tell you what update you are running.
As far as I can tell, targeting windows XP is supported from VS 2012 with any update. You just need to make sure the project targets a version of the .NET framework that is supported on Windows XP. (.NET 4 or earlier)
How can I find What Update version I have in Visual Studio 2012?
Open Visual Studio, Click Help, Click About. See Second line.
Mine says "Version 11.0.60315.01 Update 2"
How can I go back to update 1?
(assuming Windows 7)
Control panel > Programs and Features > view installed updates > uninstall the update you want under the Visual Studio 2012 category.
That being said, I have no idea if this solution is actually something you need to do or will fix your problem. It is simply about how to remove the updates. It sounds like you may just need to download the latest .NET framework for XP.

Visual Studio 2012 and Program Compatibility Assistant

I have been successfully using VS2012 on Win7-x64 for months now. Today after restarting my machine launching VS2012 brings up this compatibility dialog:
Clicking "Check for solutions Online" has no effect.
I could run the program with "Run Program" but then VS2012 is not stable and I cannot run our custom development and source-control plugins.
Did anyone else ran into this issue with VS2012 or any ideas?
Appreciate your help.
Best,
Sarang
M$ realized they have problem with latest Windows updates and released the hotfix for VS2012.
For interested folks the hotfix is: Visual Studio 2012 hotfix KB2781514
Update:
As Carlton pointed: The hotfix is included in all Updates from 2 on
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=301713
Visual Studio 2012 hotfix KB2781514 (from Sarang's correct answer) is part of Visual Studio 2012 Update 2. Instead of installing just this one hotfix it is better to install the latest update. As of this writing the latest one is Update 5.

Corrupt C runtime library?

I'm using Visual Studio Professional 2012 (with Update 2) and since I have a project that needs to be built with the VC++ 2010 toolset I also installed Visual C++ 2010 Express (with SP1).
I use the newer 2012 IDE also for the older projects. So for these projects I set the Platform Toolset to v100. And when I also set the runtime library to /MT or /MTd I get the following error:
error LNK1127: library is corrupt
for libcpmt.lib or libcpmtd.lib, depending on the configuration.
What could be wrong here?
Installation history:
VS2012 Professional
Windows 7 SDK
Uninstalled VS2012 and Windows SDK
VC++ 2010 Express
VS2012 Professional
If I understood correctly, you installed VS2010 after installing VS2012? If not, please edit your question to make it clear.
This sequence of installations is not recommended by Microsoft, and there are plenty of caveats and ReadMe's to navigate in order to find out what's happened.
I suggest that the best thing to do is to reinstall VS2012 (or do a repair install), then see what - if anything - is still broken.
