Nexus 7 tablet won't enter debugging mode on visual studio for MAC xamarin

Question

what can I do to get my tablet to enter debugging mode when I connect to my macbook pro.

it was fine two days ago, but now when I connect it, it only charges and I can't get it to enter debugging mode so I can run my app that I am developing on it.

Yes its in debugging mode in the developer setttings.

I have tried using terminal to try and set it up via wifi, but the commands "abd" dont work.

Ideally I want it just to go back to working via usb. What can I do as the emulator I use is so slow. ?

If you are using android studio parallel please quit your android studio and try again. — Anshad Rasheed, May 30 '17 at 04:08
If you go into `Developer options` on the tablet and `Revoke USB debugging authorizations` and then connect it via USB, do you get prompted with a "Allow UDB debugging" dialog? — SushiHangover, May 30 '17 at 04:09
@james.d_12 Does the `Android File Transfer` utility work? Just wondering if you have a bad cable ;-) — SushiHangover, May 30 '17 at 04:13

When the Nexus 7 is plugged in there is a persistent notification that indicates "CONNECT AS / Media Device (MTP)"

that does not come up either. AS i stated, it worked fine two days ago. I know what is and isnt supposed to do, but now it only charges, nothing else happens. no notifications, no alerts, nothing. – james.d_12 May 30 '17 at 05:51
Check your cable and usb port. – Rifan May 30 '17 at 05:55
