Hello,
I'm trying to deploy a basic SharePoint 2013 app by using Visual Studio 2012 Update 1 to a site collection that uses SharePoint 2010 experience template. The deployment fails with error message:
Error occurred in deployment step 'Install app for SharePoint': Apps cannot be added to Site Collections in compatibility mode.
I couldn't find anyting with this specific error so I checked if there is anything related to Site Collection compatibility and I found this:

After disabling notifications and setting compatibility range to OldVersionsI tried to deploy the app again and it failed again with same error message.
When I try to deploy an app to SharePoint 2013 experience based site collection everyting goes without any hiccups.
Any ideas why this could be happening? Or am I forced to use SharePoint 2013 experience template which wouldn't make much sence.
