Thanks for the reply Charles but there must be something else going on.

I'm using the latest VS2015 which has Xamarin included in the Community
edition.

When using it, I can compile and run all of the code in "
https://github.com/xamarin/recipes" so my environment is fine but your
examples will only load the Universal Windows project as seen here:

Thanks for any help on this.
