Can you post the exact error messages from the compiler? And the exact
namespace/class name(s) that are failing?

Also a snippet of code that is failing to compile would be useful.

And it would be useful to know what it says in your portable project file
for profile number - the line that says <TargetFrameworkProfile>Profile???</
TargetFrameworkProfile>
