In the video here the Entity Data Model Wizard includes options "EF Designer from database" and "Code First from database"
I do not get these options appearing in the wizard when I add a new data item and select ADO.Net entity data model
I am using VS2013 and have installed EF6.1 using Nuget. How do I install the new wizard options?

Do you have the latest quarterly update for Visual Studio? Look for the little flag in the upper right corner which will tell you if you need to update any components or VS2013.
You are running update 1. Update 3 is the latest stable release which can be downloaded:
Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 Update 3
Alternate and Quick Solution ->
For me, it worked there by downloading & installing EFTools6.1.3ForVS2013.msi (19.6 MB) version from Microsoft Download page for Entity Framework 6 Tools for Visual Studio 2012 & 2013

I want to install Visual Studio Community edition and I need to use Visual Studio Team Services (was Visual Studio Online) free account as source control.
The information on the visual studio site seems to indicate no functionality available under the Team Foundation section. But from a lot of searching online I have found conflicting advice and people say that they have been able to use it with an in-house TFS etc.
Can I use the Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition with the Visual studio Team Services free services like source control, work item tracing, branching/merging code etc?
The answer is YES. You can use any VS edition to connect to Visual Studio Team Service.
when running windows 8.1 I had the windows explorer extension that allowed TFS 2013 integration.
After an upgrade to Windows 10 that has "made off" as the police would like to say.
Has anyone got this working and if they have what did they do?
Beginning with Visual Studio 2017, a new extension called Microsoft Team Foundation Version Control Windows Shell Extension has been published to the Visual Studio Marketplace.
The description says:
This release requires a computer with Visual Studio 2017 and all of the Visual Studio system requirements. It supports all TFS Server versions that are supported by Visual Studio 2017:
Team Foundation Server 2018
Team Foundation Server 2017
Team Foundation Server 2015
Team Foundation Server 2013
Team Foundation Server 2012
Team Foundation Server 2010 SP1
Visual Studio Team Services
I have finally got to the bottom of this. It turns out that you dont match the power tools to teh TFS version (even though they are TFS power tools), you match them to the Visual Studio version regardless of the TFS version.
So in my case I have visual studio 2015 and TFS 2013. I need to install the power tools for TFS 2015.
Thanks for your help everyone
Dave is correct that, you need to install TFS 2013 Power Tool to use Windows Shell Extension.
Then you can get the extension in a local folder which is in a TFVC mapped workspace folder.
I just installed VS2013 preview and the integration of Crystal Reports is not working. I installed "Crystal Reports for Visual Studio V13.0.6", this provides integration in VS2012.
Is there any hack/trick to integration CR into VS2013preview, so that I can edit reports?
As of 10/23/2013:
Service Pack 7 for “SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio” does not support Visual Studio 2013. Service Pack 8, ETA first quarter 2014, is planned to support VS 2013 as well as WIN 8.1.
SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio - Service Pack 7 - Fixed Issues
SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio: Updates & Runtime Downloads
Service Pack 9 for SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio
is now available for download. Don't forget that to integrate CRVS
into VS IDE you must run the install exe(!).
And yes, CRVS SP 9 does support VS 2013. List of fixes and Supported
Platforms documentation coming next week.

I installed VS 2012 beta version and then installed Entity framework following this tutorial and it worked fine.
VS 2012 beta expired so i got VS 2012 Express. I tried to follow the same tutorial but now i don't have "Entity Framework Reverse Engineer Code First" in right-click project menu.
Is it a limitation in Visual Studio 2012 Express?
EF Power Tools are not available on Express SKU - you need at least Pro version. See this thread for more detailed answer: How to install EFPowerTool Beta on the right version of VS on my PC
This might sound like a silly question but is there a manual or a guide on how to set up Team Foundation Server 2010 in Visual Studio 2010 Premium or Ultimate? It comes built-in right?
I've only got up to the Server list part. It's asking me to select a TFS server and port, but I don't think I have one. All I have installed is Visual Studio 2010. According to this product comparison page, TFS 2010 should come pre-installed with Visual Studio 2010.
Team Foundation Server is the source control server application. It is not the same as Visual Studio 2010 Premium/Ultimate.
In order to use TFS, you must install it on a machine on your network, then connect to it using the client, which is what comes preinstalled with Visual Studio.
Back in 2008, you'd have to download the TFS Client separately and install that in order to connect Visual Studio to a TFS instance. This might be what's leading to your confusion.
No, it doesn't come built in. Team Foundation Server is a separate product from Visual Studio; the (slightly misleading) table on the page you linked does indicate that TFS "can be purchased separately."
