When trying to add new work item iterations from VS 2012 connected to TFS 2021 collection I receive the dialog saying the username or password is incorrect. When I create the connection to TFS I provided the server credentials. TFS 2012 its under a VM with Win OS 2012 and both server and pc/laptop are in same group of network. Not domain controller or accounts.

I think I choose right file. Issue has gone, now it opens IE and ask for credentials to log in to tfs portal.

Thanks all for your help.

I'm using Ultimate 2012 Update 1, so which file should I apply to address the issue?, I see several ones. Could you point to correct one.

Thanks,

This issue sounds similar to an issue that will be fixed in the upcoming VS 2012 Update 2 release. Are you currently using 2012 RTM or 2012 Update 1? If so, consider trying the latest CTP (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=273878). Let us know if this fixes the problem for you.
