I have been working successfully for weeks on my .net maui application targeting ios. I normally open the application and then pair to mac from within visual studio and all is well.
However, starting yesterday evening I can no longer connect to my mac. I get an object reference error in the UI and in the logs I get the error below.
I have rebooted my mac and pc, repaired visual studio, cleared caches referenced in some articles, etc but I cannot resolve the error.
I have visual studio 17.10.1 installed on my pc and have macOS Sonoma 14.5.
I have a second PC with Visual Studio on it that I have not changed anything on in the past month that I tested on as well and I get the exact same error when trying to pair to the MAC.
