Hey Robert -
It is not very intuitive, but as you have already discovered, when a
campaign is created it has all 3 platform targets associated with it.
This means that after creating a campaign what you have to do is
remove the targets that you don't want rather than add the targets
that you do.

This one stumped me for a while, too.
