"Upload requires a serial port or programmer"???

Hi, I am using the arduino visual studio plugin. It builds just fine with no errors but when I go to upload to my Mega 2650 I get the error "Upload requires a serial port or programmer. Upload cancelled." 

I've used the actual Arduino IDE before and uploaded to Arduino boards with no issue on the same laptop.

Thus far I have tried all four USB ports on my labtop and recieved the error. I also made sure the correct board type was selected. I looked through the options under the tools tab but honestly didn't know what I was looking at and got a little overwhelmed.

How do I resolve this or at least go about figuring out how? Thanks!

Hopefully this helps? I had to crop off the right side which only had the solution explorer in it.

Thanks

If you drop down the blank field to the right of the magnifying glass (on the bottom tool strip) do you see a list of COM ports?

Clicking on the empty drop down box brings up an empty list  Sad
