Answer
Use this one to select your default subscription:
Select-AzureSubscription -Default -SubscriptionName "My Production (Pay-As-You-Go)"
You can also choose to use -SubscriptionId (and the GUID) instead of the name.
For more information on the Select-AzureSubscription commandlet; type Get-Help Select-AzureSubscription .
If this doesn't work, try running first, before selecting your subscription:
Add-AzureAccount
Update if you're still facing trouble:
If you are using AzureRM / with old cmdlets (or just AzureRM) and are still facing problems I would strongly recommend you to check if you have multiple versions of AzureRM.Profile module . I've encountered this numerous times when one version is installed under Program Files and another under my user profile (or somewhere else in PSModulePath).
To list what modules / versions are installed :
Get-Module AzureRm.Profile -ListAvailable
If you have multiple instances and versions of this it might create some trouble with some of your cmdlets.
