Adobe AIR apps break the media player!!

Hi all,
I posted yesterday stating that I was having trouble with the iPad media player.
What was happening was that if I opened the WIRED app, I was able to view the video content as normal. If I then closed the app (via the home button) and re-opened it, the video content would no longer play (I could 'buffer' through it, but whenever I hit the play button nothing happens). What was more disturbing was that this seemed to affect other apps that have video also, i.e. if I open the WIRED app, play some video, hit the home button, then open the Guardian eye witness app, the video content in the Guardian no longer works.
If I uninstall the wired app, or restart the iPad this is not the case.
I'm starting to think this is something to do with Adobe AIR, and that when the apps are getting closed, they are not shutting down a media player component correctly.
Is this happening to anyone else?

Hi Mukesh,
I installed the Flash CC 2014 update and added some Certificates from Apple to my Keychain. Now EVERYTHING works fine again!! :-)
Thank you very much for the Update! :-) Good job!
Best regards
Jan

Adobe Air App in First Lady Michelle Obama's "Apps for Healthy Kis" Contest

Break pal - Fitness at Your Desk (http://www.breakpal.com). An online workplace wellness application built using Adobe Air and Drupal has been accepted into First Lady Michelle Obama's " Apps for healthy kids competition.
The competition is to inspire application developers to develop utilities or games which inspire kids and adults to eat healthier and develop better exercise habits. Break Pal does both by reminding users to exercise at intervals and then delivers office safe micro-workouts right to the desktop.
Exercises are mostly Qigong, cardio kung fu, and yoga based.
Social networking aspects are also used to create accountability.
If the application wins it will be heavily promoted by the whitehouse and very likely will end up being used by millions of school children, businesses, and individuals to help them stay healthy and eat right. A good push for good health and adobe air

No Adobe air app will run Only Flash Web browser....

So I have re-installed Flash Builder So when I try and run a Adobe air app from the Flash Builder It brings up a prompt everytime saying - If the program is already running, close it before attempting to run. When I kill the Adobe Air debugger in the Task manager it pops up again saying If the program is already running, close it before attempting to run.
After waiting a few moments from trying again I get a message: Unable to connect to the Application to fetch profile data. Please try profiling the application again.
With Flash based - web browser apps - they run fine with no issue. How ever its only adobe air - desktop apps that run this way. This is the third time I have installed FB 4.5 on Windows 7 64 bit. last night it was all woprking fine I was able to debug my Flash Application and everything was working - it has been doing this all day.

I had the same issue suddenly today
After hours of scratching my head - and just before re-installing FlashBuilder 4.5 - I found this suggestion
I had an entry in the "mm.cfg" file:
PreloadSWF=C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\9us94hs0.default\e xtensions\[email protected]\chrome\content\flashfirebug\flashfirebug.swf
- I deleted the line and it now works
---- aaarrrrggghhh - wasted time

How to print from Adobe AIR with on the iPad?

Is it possible to print from an Adobe AIR app on the iPad? I've searched and I know PrintJob won't work. Is there another way to print? I'm developing in Flash CS5.5 and have Flash web app that already prints using PrintJob.

Has anyone seen an example of how to create one for printing? I need this functionality for Android and iOS.

How to get Adobe Air-apps to run *properly*? (Voddler ecpecially)

First: I am running AMD64, and have installed the bin32-adob-air from AUR.
The problem is, this does not work as it should. Air apps are never "installed" like they would be in Windows, or Ubuntu with the adobe-air from adobe installed. This causes problems with remembering configs and storing data between instances. Wimp, t.ex. will never remember my password, now matter how many times I check the remember password-box. And When running VOddler it just won't find the config file.
I am trying to run Voddler in linux now, following this. But it won't work.
I just get an "error reading config file" message when starting it using the adobe-air command (ie. the script from the package. Thinking the problem might be caused by the script running air apps from a temp dir, i aslo tried to run
[gert@blad opt]$ /opt/adobe-air-sdk/bin/adl -nodebug /opt/airapps/VoddlerPlayer/META-INF/AIR/application.xml /opt/airapps/VoddlerPlayer
after unpacking the Voddler Files there, but no luck.
I see that there are a newer version of Voddler out now, and I will try that, but I'd appreciate any help with this spesific issue.
Also, I would like to know if there is any way to get the "full Air experience" where you jut click-and go, and can install Air-apps the simple, proper way "everybody else" does it. Cause Air right now is a major hassle. Is there any chance of getting the Adobe-Air installer from Adoe work on Arch, or at least get a similar result? Integrated in the system, detected in the browser on webpages etc.

I guess voddler cancels the DRM "lease" as soon as the error box pos up, giving me this question. Seems Firefox doesn't communicate properly with the air-app. Or something else I don't get. complete output from firefox run: pastebin

How to fix sound delay in adobe air apps?

I am working on this drummer game where the user has to repeat what he listens by tapping on the thouchscreen, but there´s a noticeable delay on Android and iOS. The same game I had it working fine on AS2 for PCs. I don´t know whats the problem in adobe air apps. I hoe someone can help me.

Unfortunately, I do not own an iOS device and from my understanding, you have to have a developer account just to be able to test apps on your device, even if you have no intention of ever publishing something on the store. Correct me if Im wrong on that, but everything I have seen is that the only way to test apps without a developer account is to have a jailbroken device.
I have been building an audiobook player on and off for a while now and tested it on a Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 4, and Nexus 5 in addition to my Moto X. None of those ever experienced any noticeable delays in playback. That is why I was wondering if it is a per device issue. Or it could be that I have just always used vanilla (or extremely close to it) Google Android devices. I understand that the devices I have tested with are most likely in a very low percentage of active devices used aside from the Moto X. I was basically just wanting to jump in to provide my notes on the issue, the device I tested with, and my experience.

It has changed and it is bloated enough as it is. Since the early days they have added Ping, Match, Genius, a whole media store interface, concomitant movie playing, the whole syncing business with a multitude of i-devices.
There is no need to add a DVD player since DVD Player stands alone quite nicely as it is. Additionally Apple is phasing out DVDs (note the demise of iDVD, all software now being downloads only, and the disappearance of DVD drives from newer models) since of course you're supposed to just get your movies from the iTunes Store.

Adobe AIR app installation issue due to certificate problem on mac 10.9.5

Im trying to upgrade and then reinstall an Adobe Air application but get the error message failing to install due to a certificate issue.
The developer says the fix is to uninstall the app and install again but this also fails.
Checked my machine clock - saved but that didnt work
The adobe AIR uninstaller simply says I have the latest version? Cant seem to delete and reinstall although other adobe air apps work so I dont think this is the issue
I have gone through the troubleshooting guide: Troubleshoot AIR installation | Mac OS but still have the issue?
Any ideas would be great.

I suspect your Mac OS install was an in place upgrade from an earlier version. This is something I would never even consider with a production machine.

Error message when downloading adobe air app.

I have according to the installation program successfully installed adobe air. I am now trying to download an adobe air app from Jacqui Lawson and keep getting the following message.
"Sorry an error has occurred. The application could not be installed. Try installing it again. If the problem persists, contact the application author."
I have read other comments regarding this matter and tried everything suggested so far. I am still having the same issue.
I am running windows vista 32 bit. All firewall and anti virus are off, UAC is enabled, I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program and I have tried using a different browser. Can anyone suggest anything else to try.

Many of us have encounted this issue. The problem is not confined to a particular version or computer operating. Many homemade remedies and scientific ones have worked for some and not others. The most recent fix was offered by an ID by the name of Maud Barbara and seems to have been the answer for that user and at least one more.
Maud Barbara's fix can be found at the end of the very long thread on the subject found

Hello
I had the same problem as you and I just d have the solution:
go to C / program files (86) / common files/OOBE
Rename OOBE by OLDOOBE
and your problem is resolved
You can reinstall the software

You have to provide your computer's administrator password in order to install Flash Player.

Admin Rights for Adobe AIR apps

Which Admin rights are needed on a system to install a .AIR file on a system? In our Enterprise scenario users do not have Admin rights on the system. And whenever user tries installing an AIR app an error is thrown for the same. I want to know what are the least (Admin) rights that we need to give to a user on a WindowsXP system so that he can install air apps?

Hello,
Unfortunately, there isn't a simple answer to this question because AIR isn't in complete comtrol over the full set of files and registry keys touched during an install - we rely on Windows Installer for that. However you can find additional information about this at:
Does Installing an AIR Application Require Admin Rights?
What are Administrative Rights, Anyway?
You might also want to vote for this idea: Installation of Adobe AIR apps without having administrative privileges
Hope this helps,

Will Adobe AIR apps work on iOS (Javascript/HTML)?

Hello,
I haven't been able to find any definitive answer on whether Adobe AIR apps using Javascript and HTML can work on iOS.
Anyone know for sure?
And if so, what happens with the APIs available through these swfs that we currently include:
networkInfoWrapper.swf
servicemonitor.swf
applicationupdater_ui.swf
Many thanks
Stephen

The answer is no. Apps developed for AIR using HTML and JavaScript are not supported on iOS or other mobile platforms. The mobile platforms do include a StageWebView component that can be used to load and display HTML and JavaScript. However, it is entirely different than the HTMLLoader control used on the desktop platforms (for HTML-based AIR apps). You cannot, for example, call any AIR/Flash APIs from JavaScript running in a StageWebView. In general, very little communication is possible between your ActionScript application code and the JavaScript code running in the StageWebView object.

Adobe AIR Apps + Safari = Very slow

Hi everybody,
I'm experiencing a strange behaviour of my Adobe AIR Apps on iPad. I've tested several Apps now (one GPU-Heavy Game, one CPU-Blitting App, one pretty standard Puzzle) and all of them do have the same issue - as soon as Safari is running in the background it sometimes (not always.. and most likely on iPad1) slows my App down to 1fps. Until I close Safari again. I haven't ever seen any other App doing so, thus I believe it's an Adobe AIR bug. Maybe only on iPad though.
Does anyone know why this happens or if I can get around of that? Besides my Apps run superfast.
What I've tested so far is:
- My memory usage is ~4mb. Doesn't seem to bother him if it's more or not
- My GPU-Cache is held quite low (but even with empty GPU Cache this issue appears)
- I'm using an Enter-Frame in all my apps which simulates the rendertick. Maybe this may be the fault?!
Many thanks in advance,
Marvin.

Furthermore:
- if the iPad was restarted you can have opened any iOS system-app without slowing down the Adobe AIR app
- nevertheless after some hours this bug occurs again.
Our game is in stores now: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ifunnel-frenzy-hd/id457822239?mt=8 and many people send us bugreports because of it. As soon as I'm telling them to close iOS system-apps things work superfine again.
You can download and test this bug for yourself - I think this might be pretty self-explaining then.
I'm a bit struggling how to solve this.. honestly.

Adobe air apps cannot be installed

Hi,
I have trouble with my PC to install any kind of adobe air app. When I start to install a Adobe air app, I get the UAC request and I confirm it but then the Adobe Air Application Installer.exe *32 is hanging and doing nothing.
When I repeat the process another Adobe Air Application Installer.exe *32 instance is started.
Here is my equipment and what I tried:
Equipment:
Windows 7 professional SP1 64 -Bit
- Reinstalling Adobe air with Revo Uninstaller(cleaning registry) and installing it new with Admin rights.
- Installing Adobe air in Windows XP Sp3 mode
- Multiple apps were tried and when I start them with the SDK, they are working fine.
- No information are available in the windows eventlogs
Any idea how to solve it or any possibility to start a debug tool to get more information?
Thank you in advance for any input and help!
Cheers,
Dominik

Hi Chris,
I appreciate your support!
Sadly the Microsoft Install and Uninstall Fix It tool does not work, adobe air is still hanging during the app installation.
This is what I have done:
1. Uninstall Adobe air with the Microsoft Tool
2. Install Adobe air new
3. Try to install the app SmartClient.air -> Did not work
4. Try to install the app DesktopiPhone.air -> Did not work
Now I have 4 Adobe air instance in the task manager(see screenshot)
