Answer 1

Does it find XCode in the right location? Check by clicking Xamarin Studio>Preferences>SDK Locations>Apple. If the Apple SDK was not found, you can manually specify XCode location path.

Answer 2

I had this problem because I was trying to create and use an iOS project using the "Unified API." I suggest not using this and sticking with the "Classic API." The former does not work (it won't build) if you want to use the simulator rather than a real device.
