The Error Message 'Application descriptor file cannot be parsed' shows when compiling (Ctrl + Enter) Adobe AIR for Android applications on Flash Professional CS5.5

The Error Message 'Application descriptor file cannot be parsed' shows when compiling (Ctrl + Enter) Adobe AIR for Android applications on Flash Professional CS5.5
This is happening for most of the pupils and staff at our school and they are unable to complete their work.
This also happens on a fresh copy of windows and CS5.5 without any updates and also with all latest updates.
I have tried it on 32-bit and 64-bit CS5, Windows, Air and Java with the same error every time.
There are a small minority of users where this works fine for them with no issue.
I have tried re-setting user profiles.
I have tried a local admin and domain admin account with the same issue
I have noticed however that if the file is moved to the shared area it will compile. If it is on their documents area it will not compile. The users have full control in both locations. This is fine for staff but we are unable to give full control or modify access to the shared area for the pupil's
I have been through the online support section and it directed me to phone Adobe Customer care who informed me that all support has been discontinued for CS5, CS5.5 and CS6 and they will only support creative cloud.
Any ideas what to try next? There is no other information about this error and I cannot work out what is causing it.

I have tried and  able to package an apk using your XML file.Could you please make sure your XML file starting from line 1 and coloumn 0.Any space will results in the error (Application Descriptor file cannot be parsed)

    Thank !!!!!!!!

    Can you post the xml file?
    Have you openned the xml file and validated it?
    I am thinking you might have a mismatch in the descriptor file as to the version of AIR you are targeting.

  • I keep getting the error message "Missing PDFMaker files. Do you want to run the installer in repair mode"

    I keep getting the error message "Missing PDFMaker files  Do you want to run the installer in repair mode"when I try to convert a file into a pdf.  I have tried uninstalling then reinstalling but I continue to get the message.  I am able directly print file, but there are some errors in the pages, but some of them have font errors. Please advise.

    Hey Suzanne,
    Could you please let me know what Acrobat version are you using and what kind of file are you trying to convert to PDF.
    If you are using an MS Office application, then PDF Maker has to be an active plug-in for the PDF conversion.
    Have you tried using Print to PDF option from the File menu for the same?
    Please check and then let me know.
    Regards,
    Anubha

  • I cannot create a new business catalyst site with Dreamweaver CC 2014. The error message states that Dreamweaver cannot connect with server, try again later. How can I fix this problem?

    I cannot create a new Business Catalyst site with Dreamweaver CC 2014 (Mac). The error message states that Dreamweaver cannot connect with server, try again later. In addition, I am also unable to load remotely a previously created Business Catalyst site as it says there is something wrong with my username or password. However when I put my password in and press test connection, it says it has connected successfully. What is going wrong and how can I fix this problem?
    Thanks

    Hi Ozy08,
    Can you try the solutions mentioned in Re: Can't Login to Business Catalyst within Dreamweaver CS6?
    If you still have problems, and you have a purchased version of DW CC, send me your Adobe ID, location, and contact details over a private message. Click my picture and use the message option.

  • The error message says that iPad cannot connect to iTunes because of a passcode, but I dont have a passcode.

    Please Help Me!!! I am really stuck.
    So I recently got an iPad 2 and everything was fine until I tried plugging it into my computer (which I didnt do when I got it). I had a passcode on it and the error message said that it cannot connect because of the passcode, so I unlocked it and hit try again and same error message. I then disabled the passcode and it still wont connect. Ive tried turning the computer off and back on, also tried turning the iPad on and back on. NOTHING IS WORKING!!! It is really frustrating because I need it for my study and it wont connect through iTunes, and because of that it wont connect to the computer at all!!! Please help me here, my partner and I are usually really good with this kind of suff and we cant work this out.. It has never happened to us before.. Please Help!!!!!

    If you cannot access the iPad because of the passcode, you have no choice but to restore it using the same steps that you would use if you forgot the passcode.

  • I GET AN ERROR MESSAGE SAYING, THIS FILE CANNOT BE FOUND

    WHEN I TRY TO OPEN A FILE.
    I GET AN ERROR MESSAGE SAYING, THIS FILE CANNOT BE FOUND.
    WHAT CAN I DO?

    We really don't know what problem you are having; you don't provide any details that we can understand.
    First you write "WHEN I TRY TO OPEN A FILE..." - what kind of file?  From where - from your local disk, or a website?
    Then you write "How do I open and read my message?" - what kind of message?
    Also tell us your operating system, browser, email client, Reader version, ... anything that is related to your problem.

  • On every attempt to install Itunes I've recieved the error message, "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package Vendor." What do?

    I know there's a million threads like this, but I thought I'd record my experience.  I, too, was having the original poster's error when I tried to update iTunes on Windows XP.  I think I was stuck on 10. 
    I solved it by un-installing iTunes and every other Apple app.  I discovered that Apple Software Update would not un-install as its MSI file could not be found.  I used the "Windows Install Cleanup" tool from Microsoft to remove Apple Software Update from the list of installed programs.  Google "kb290301" for a Microsoft page that includes a download link for it.  After that, I was able to install a fresh copy of iTunes 10.5.2.
    I'm not sure why this app's folder and MSI were missing from my computer.  I had once used Laplink PC Mover to move everything from my old computer to this one, and perhaps it missed a bit.
