Adobe AIR Seamless Install Badge PROBLEM

Hello,
my air badge installation stop working few days back (do not know exactly how many).
Has anybody else this issue here?
Any advice probably.
Thanks

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the Reply.
After quite a bit more testing and some digging around under the hood, I've solved the problem. Below is what I found out, hopefully this will help others out with the same problem:
When downloading Air and the Air app in one go using the install badge, trying to open an SQL connection was throwing errors on most machines (it was not limited to Macs alone). If i down loaded Air separately, then installed the app with install badge (with air already installed) it worked on some machines.
The error was caused by trying to create the database file at the wrong in the file system:
// Causes Errors some machines.
var dbFile:File =File.applicationDirectory.resolvePath (databaseName);
// Works fine.
var dbFile:File =File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath (databaseName);
I'm not sure why the different installation process showed up the errors on some machines and not others, but it's fixed now.
Hope this helps.
Ali

Enhanced seamless install badge, asking user "open, save, or cancel"

I’m trying to get it to start the install automatically. it seems to install my air app automatically right after installing air runtime ,but if a user already has the air runtime it ask them “ open, save or cancel"
Can the Enhanced seamless install badge always install automatically?

Thanks Romil, I want to make sure that I asked my question correctly.
If the user gets air runtime installed the badge goes directly to the install and ask them if they want to install it.
If the user already has air runtime it gives the open, save, cancel box.
Is there a way to get the badge to go directly to the install question rather than open, save, cancel box if they already have the air runtime?

OSX install error: "Adobe AIR Already installed"

I'm having an issue with Adobe AIR installer on my Mac.
Having already uninstalled a previous beta, I am presented with an
error message whenever the 1.0 installer is launched: "Adobe AIR
Already installed on this system". Of course, that is not the case
and for the life of me I can't get this blasted version to install.
So my Mac is running out of AIR, and so am I.
Any ideas?

You can enable installer logging (
http://blogs.adobe.com/simplicity/2007/10/air_installer_logging.html)
to find out why the installer thinks AIR is already installed.
Most likely, however, it is. Check /Library/Frameworks and
see if Adobe AIR.framework is already there.

Adobe AIR re-install error

Can someone help me with this error please.
"this installation of this application is damaged. Try re-installing or contacting the publisher for assistance"
It happened when I went to HELP in illustrator CS5 on Mac. I started to update it but now I get this when I go to HEPP or SUPPORT.

This article from adobe should help:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/403/kb403150.html
Try this first though:
-Drag to trash ALL air applications like Adobe Media Player and Community help client under /Applications and /Applications/Adobe.
-Uninstall AIR, using the Uninstaller App ( located in /Applications/Utilities )
-Delete the following directories if still there:
/Library/Frameworks/Adobe AIR.framework/
/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Adobe/AIR/
Now install AI again.

Need Adobe Air To Install Adobe Air

While trying to install another product my MacBook Pro i7 OS X verizion 10.7.2 informed me that it needed Adobe Air to install completely, so i travled to the Adobe page and downloaded Adobe Air, when trying to install this product I was informed that Adobe Air needed Adobe Air to be installed.

Attention Mac 10.7.2 users that are crashing with Adobe AIR
We are aware of the crashing that can occur with late model Apple computers running 10.7.2 and are working closely with Apple to address this. In the meantime here are a couple of workarounds you can use:
Open System Preferences, select Energy Saver and disable Automatic graphics switching (or use a third party GPU switcher, such as gfxCardStatus and enable the Nvidia GPU)
Before launching your AIR based application, launch either Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.
We apologize for the inconvenience and hope to have this resolved soon.

Seamless Install/Badge.swf problem

Hello, I'm trying to use the badge.swf file to perform a seamless install via a web page. I've used the supplied files (default_badge.html and badge.fla) to modify the configuration to meet our needs, and I've reviewed the example article at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/flex/quickstart/seamless_install.html on how this process should work. Let me say that when viewing the article, I can download the example "Hello World" app with no problems at all.
In my situation, however, I'm getting a Javascript error when I click the badge.swf movie appearing in my web page. The error doesn't really make sense because, while I've seen the "Object doesn't support this property or method" message before, the location doesn't exist (line 1 character 102). The relevant air file does download for me even after receiving this message, but for some other users it won't, and since I'm just a developer and not the primary user of this AIR app, that's no good!
On doing a View Page Source for the above article, I notice that while the article itself states that the badge.swf is included via the AC_FL_RunContent function, in actuality it appears that the movie is being embedded by a mechanism which, to me, is wholly unrecognizable:
<script type="text/javascript">
   // <![CDATA[
     var props = new Object();
     props.swf = "/devnet/air/samples/badge/badge.swf";
     props.id = "flashplayer-marquee";
     props.w = "217";
     props.h = "180";
     props.ver = "9.0.115";
     props.c = "#fff";
     props.wmode= "opaque";
     var swfo = new SWFObject( props );
     swfo.addParam("allowScriptAccess", "always");
     swfo.addVariable ("appversion","1.0")
     swfo.addVariable ( "appname", "Hello World" );
     swfo.addVariable ( "appurl", "http://download.macromedia.com/pub/developer/air/sample_apps/HelloWorld.air" );
           swfo.addVariable ( "airversion", "1.0" );
           swfo.addVariable ( "imageurl", "/devnet/air/samples/badge/helloworld.jpg");
     swfo.addVariable ("appid", "helloworld");
     registerSWFObject( swfo, "badge" );
    // ]]>
   </script>
I'm pretty clueless as to the whys and wherefores of this block of code. What I do know is that the download process works just fine in the example article, but for me it's not working correctly. If anyone has had any experience with this and can shed some light on what I might be doing wrong I'd really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

Thanks Romil, I want to make sure that I asked my question correctly.
If the user gets air runtime installed the badge goes directly to the install and ask them if they want to install it.
If the user already has air runtime it gives the open, save, cancel box.
Is there a way to get the badge to go directly to the install question rather than open, save, cancel box if they already have the air runtime?

Cannot install or uninstall Adobe AIR, or install NY Times Reader

Runnning Window
s 7 Pro. When trying to install Adobe AIR, or to uninstall the current version 2.5.
1, or to install an app that uses Adobe AIR, get message "This application requires a vers
ion of Adobe AIR which cannot be found".

Found the solution to many Windows Installer problems for the 64 bit version of Windows 7, including problems installing Adobe AIR. This link is to an excellent explanation of a simple Installer parameter change in the Registry that worked for AIR and for a number of Windows updates as well.

Adobe Air Not Installing - Admin account needed to install error

I am on a Windows Vista computer with over 100GB of harddrive space left. I continue to get Adobe Air install errors. I have:
uninstalled from programs and Adobe Air is not showing up so that is good.
removed all references from Adobe Air from registry keys
installed Windows Program Clean Utility and confirmed Adobe is not showing up.
I am logged in as the only account that has admin rights to the computer.
I have restated and still continue to get same error for Adobe AIR 1.5.2 Installer program.
It keeps on saying install not succesful. You need admin rights to install Adobe Air.
What do I do? How do I install Adobe Air? I have confirmed with Dell that computer is okay. Internet connectivity is great to and no other programs having issue.

Kyle thanks for the idea and I thought that was going to work but it unfortunately did not. I did right click and chose the run as administrator option but still got the error that read:
An error occurred while installing Adobe AIR. Installation may not be allowed by your administrator. Please contact your administrator.
Attached is a screenshot and not sure what else to do. This is a home computer that only has me as a user on it so I am the administrator.

Adobe Air update install fails

I have been using Acrobat.com as a desktop application. As of
today, every time I launch the application, I get an update
notification about an update for the Adobe Air platform for
Acrobat.com. When I click to update, the installation fails, and
the error message tells me to contact the autor of the application.
Do you know anything about this?

I have Acrobat.com installed on my system and I became aware
of an update which I understand to be called Acrobat.com AIR.
I downloaded Acrobat.com AIR but when it was installing, a
message appeared which read, "Same version as installed version."
Then I was given the option to "Un-install", the currently
installed Acrobat.com, "Save" or "Cancel".
Since I wasn't sure of the outcome, I canceled the process to
play it safe. Was I being overly cautious?

Adobe AIR Not installed, can't install!

My security package tells me that Air needs updates, so I must've had it at one time, but I can't install the latest version and have followed all the instructions to overcome this - except that it can't be found!
I've been having trouble downloading stuff lately (unrelated) although I may need it to do so.
Anyone have any bright ideas? I'd be very grateful as this has been going on some time and it's beyond a joke!
Many thanks
Moot

I'm actually using a Windows 7(32bit) Professional Edition with SP1. I have follow the instruction on the link you gave me but there is still the same problem.
This is the install log I found on my computer :
Bootstrapper begin with version 2.5.0.16600 on Win x86
No installed runtime detected
Begin runtime download from http://airdownload.adobe.com/air/3/nai/windows6.1/x86/installer

Solved the Adobe 10 flashplayer Install/Use Problem!

Read someone else's responses to close everything, then go to:
http://adobe.com/go/tn_14157
Run the uninstall.
Then was advised to start in safe mode by going to:
start
run
iexplore -extoff
HOWEVER: I could not then perform the next action, so I skipped the above step of working in safemode, and just opened Internet Explorer regularly.
Went to:
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
For some reason, it worked this time. The "graphics movie" on the flashwave site that is supposed to show up actually showed up this time. My computer did not show that I had a previous version of Adobe Flashplayer, although I think I probably did. The folder showed empty and it did not show up anywhere. I have probably downloaded and installed this a dozen times in the past week or so and it wasn't working. Very frustrating. I also found that I had the same problem with Adobe Reader 8 version. Tried many many many times to get it to work and it wouldn't. My old 6 version worked just fine, so after all the frustration finally just deleted the 8 upgrade and kept using the 6 version until the 9 came out, which works fine.
Can't really imagine it is so much everyone's operating sysems or settings when it seems to be only Adobe that causes these problems!
Hope this helps someone!
