Unable to create app packages in Visual Studio 2013 Pro - windows-phone-8

I am a new developer and I'm having some trouble with VS2013. I have my code complete and working, but when I go to create the app package it blacks out the option shown in this picture.
It is a SIlverlight App so I can use the designer. The account link to VS2013 is a Dev account.
Any help?
EDIT: FIXED
Here's the answer from when I asked this on Reddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/WPDev/comments/24zobu/visual_studio_2013_cant_create_app_package/chdjtxk

In case your link dies, here's what it says:
"Just hit Build than navigate to your documents --> Visual Studio 20** --> Projects --> Your Project Name --> Bin -> (Release or Debug depending on what's selected) there you should find a XAP file. Now head to dev.windowsphone.com sign in and submit the XAP file on the submit page in the dashboard."
Clarify: The .XAP file is located in your project folder, depending on where you have saved it, not necessary in Documents.

SSIS file path changing to C:\windows\system32 depending on how I open the project file

I've been working with SSIS reading different files - from CSVs to XLSXs - with no problems. My paths are relative, so SSIS searches for the files from the project's folder.
Well, today my colleague tried to run a package and he got a curious error message saying that the file could not be found under the "C:\windows\system32" folder. There's no configuration that would point SSIS to that folder and with me and a third colleague it's working well.
After some investigation we discovered that the problem has nothing to do with the user itself, but with how the user opens the project. Since the beginning I've been opening the project by double clicking the ".dtproj" file. My colleague first opens the SSIS development interface then opens the project file from the menu.
Has anyone noticed that behavior? What could be the cause for that?
error message print
Microsoft Visual Studio 2008
Version 9.0.30729.4462 QFE
Microsoft .NET Framework
Version 3.5 SP1
Installed Edition: IDE Standard
This happens because the different ways of launching the IDE end up with different current directories for the IDE process. You can test this by creating a package with only a Script Task, with the one line:
MessageBox.Show(Environment.CurrentDirectory);
And then running this project after launching it both ways.
Double-clicking the project or solution file sets the folder containing that file as the current directory. (I assume this is standard Windows process launching behaviour when starting a process based on the file extension association.) SSIS packages then look in the current directory when the path to the configuration file is relative.
We use relative paths to configuration files all the time to simplify deployment, and have to always remember to open the solutions by double-clicking the SLN file.

SSIS - Deploying package to file system

I've had to edit an already deployed package on a SSIS server on my computer. I now wish to deploy this package back to this server which is located in (from SQL Server Management Studio) serverName > Stored Packages > File System > packageName.
However, I don't know how to do so, and I've been trying to follow this https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms140117(v=sql.105).aspx, under the "To deploy packages to file system" section but to no avail.
I remoted in to the server but I can't find this "deployment folder" in order to run the manifest file. Can anyone help me out here? Thanks!
I've managed to fix my problem as all I had to do was build the package on Visual Studio BIDS, by right clicking the project on the Solution Explorer on the right hand side and selecting Properties. I then clicked on Deployment Utility on the pop-up window and set the CreateDeploymentUtility to True. I then clicked OK.
I then right clicked on the project in the Solution Explorer again and clicked on Build in the pop-up drop-down menu.
After it was successfully built, I logged in to the Integration Services server on SQL Server Management Studio, and then navigated to Stored Packages > File System in the Object Explorer and right clicked on File System and clicked Import Package.
In the pop-up window I selected File System in the Package location field, and browsed and selected the built package located in the my project folder\bin\Deployment. I left the Package name field as the same as the original package and then overwrote the original package after clicking OK in the window.

Visual Studio 2013 Not Opening *.cshtml files

I cannot figure out why Visual Studio is not opening CSHTML files. The error message I get this:
The document cannot be opened. It has been renamed, deleted or moved.
The file exists. I can change the extension to .html and open the file no problem. If I change the extension back to .cshtml with the file still open it lets me modify it. If I close the file and try to open it again I get the above message. Every other file type will open except .cshtml. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!
**** UPDATE ****
Figured out that it has something to do with the HTML Editor used by default for .cshtml files. If I right click, open with... and select a different editor, it will open but I lose all intellisense and it doesn't recognize any of the razor syntax. Installing Update 4 for VS 2013 to see if that works.
Just Install Visual Studio 2013 Update 5, this will solve the problem
According to your try, it seems the Application (VS 2013) haven't granted necessary file operation permission on disk (this could be related to IDE files or project files). This could occur by a corrupted operating system.
Solution:
Check Directory permission manually OR Try to reinstall OS and then VS (reinstalling the VS itself doesn't take effect in many cases).
I had installed Xamarin studio and Xamarin for visual studio. Once I uninstalled Xamarin, the problem was solved!
Another thing I tried before removing Xamarin was I right click on .cshtml file and choose "Open with..." and then select "Source Code (Text) Editor". For me in this case i had intellisense.
Hope this helps a friend.

Hello vishal to my knowledge if you go through this you can setup libgdx project on HTML 5 based browser platform.As of version 0.9.3, libgdx comes with an easy to use application called "Libgdx Setup".The following steps will create everything needed to develop for the desktop, android, html 5.
Download the gdx-setup-ui.jar from http://libgdx.badlogicgames.com/nightlies/dist/gdx-setup-ui.jar. The jar is also contained in all stable and nightly releases.
Execute the jar by double clicking it or from the command line via java -jar gdx-setup-ui.jar
Specify your project's configuration (Configuration Panel).Specify the libgdx stable/nightly release zip file or press one of the buttons to download the latest stable/nightly release (Library Selection Panel).
Hit the "Generate projects" button (Generation Panel)
Open Eclipse and import the generated projects into your workspace.
File -> Import -> Existing Projects into Workspace
Click "Browse", select the folder containing the generated projects.
Make sure all the projects are checked, then click "Finish"
To fix the error of the HTML5 platform, go to the "Problems" view, right click the error message "The GWT SDK JAR gwt-servlet.jar is missing in the WEB-INF/lib directory" and select "Quick Fix".
Click "Finish".

Adding a DLL to a SharePoint 2010 Application Page project

I am trying to create an application page in SharePoint 2010. I am trying to use the GoogleMap Control on the page. In a traditional ASP.NET application you would just plop that .dll into the bin directory of the web application project. But in SharePoint, this doesn't work.
Now after googling for hours, I have found many references to creating your own user control (.ascx) and including that in your project. But this is a different case. I keep getting an error: "Could not load file or assembly 'Artem.GoogleMap, Version=4.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=fc8d6190a3aeb01c' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.". I have the .dll installed in the GAC. So I should be able to find it.
Anyone have an experience with this?
