Newly created TFS 2010 iteration not visible

Question

I've created a new iteration in TFS 2010 and wan't to use it in a new story and query.

However, the iteration won't show up in the new story window, refreshing VS, restarting VS, switching to other project, nothing helps.

I'm a project administrator in the team project, and created the iteration with the same user that i'm trying to use it with. Permissions are not changed from default. Tested on other workstation with other user with sufficient permissions also doesn't help.

Could I be doing something wrong?

Make sure "Team Foundation Background Job Agent" is running on the server hosting your TFS instance and it is running under a service account. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms252450.aspx for more information.
