How to install Air 3.9 SDK into FB 3.7

I cannot understand why Adobe doesn't make installers to update the SDK's more automatically. I have broken apps because of iOS 7, and must use the 3.9 AIR SDK to fix this problem, and resubmit my apps. What is so frustrating is to download the 3.9 Beta SDK, but have no clear instructions on how to install it into FB 3.7. Why isn't there an installer? How can a company with the massive brainpower of Adobe be incapable of writing an installer that figures out where to put the SDK?
In my FB preferences panel, under "installed AIR SDK" the field is read-only. And it refers to a folder AIR SDK location: /Applications/Adobe Flash Builder 4.7/eclipse/plugins/com.adobe.flash.compiler_4.7.0.349722/AIRSDK .
And if I am just make AIR apps, do I need to be concerned with Flex? Is flex somehow related to making iOS and Android Apps in AIR? The relationship of Flex is so murky.
Do i do an overly into the 4.6 folder ?
Is there a newer version of FB yet?

I have downloaded the "AIR 3.9 SDK & Compiler Beta", unzipped it and copied these files into the com.adobe.flash.compiler_4.7.0.349722/AIRSDK folder - that means a bunch of files have been replaced. (I couldn't run the command line in the Terminal, it was giving me a "can't get real path for source" error).
Anyway, i'm NOT a Mac user, I updated to air 3.9 on Windows without problems - all I had to do was to replace air files in the sdks/4.6.0/ folder. Why must Mac be this complicated? ><
and another question: isn't that 'tutorial" incomplete? what about the actual flex SDK that has AIR merged into it? for sure that needs to be updated, as well, so why isn't there anything about it?
EDIT: I did succeed in the end. The problem was Mac replacing files the wrong way if you're not using the Terminal. I got it to work in the end (the Terminal), and I have used the rsync command to replace the files. For anyone still having problems with this, here's what I did:
1. update the AIR SDK
- duplicate your "AIRSDK" folder located at /Flash Builder 4.7/eclipse/plugins/com.adobe.flash.compiler_4.7.0.349722/ and rename it to something like "AIRSDK_backup"
- download and unzip the AIR 3.9 SDK & Compiler Beta [link]
- in the Terminal, navigate to the unzipped folder of the downloaded file, and run this command:
rsync ./* -avl /Applications/Adobe\ Flash\ Builder\ 4.7/ecplise/plugins/com.adobe.flash.compiler_4.7.0.349722\AIRSDK/
2. Update the Flex SDK
- duplicate your "4.6.0" folder located at /Flash Builder 4.7/sdks/ and rename it to something like "4.6.0 (3.9)"
- download and unzip the AIR 3.9 SDK for Flex Developers [link]
- in the Terminal, navigate to the unzipped folder of the downloaded file, and run this command:
rsync ./* -avl /Applications/Adobe\ Flash\ Builder\ 4.7/sdks/4.6.0\ (3.9)/
That's it! Hope this helps anyone who is still stuck.
For Windows: skip step 1 entirely and just copy/paste (replace existing files) the "AIR 3.9 SDK for Flex Developers" in /Flash Builder 4.7/sdks/4.6.0/
p.s. adobe forums login is broken on Chrome.

No AIR 3.4 SDK?

Hi,
Just wondering why the AIR 3.4 SDK is not included with FB 4.7, when in fact some of it's features like using the iOS simulator require it. To me it does not make sense to not include it simply because the Flex 4.6 SDK does not require it.
Also, the hyper link in the debug configuration dialog that is called Learn More regarding the simulator points to a dead link.

Hi,
Adobe Flex SDK 4.6 and Apache Flex SDK 4.8 contain AIR 3.1. When you create Flex projects using these SDKs, AIR 3.1 applications are created. And, you can't use features that are specific to AIR 3.4.
To use the AIR 3.4 features, you can overlay the AIR 3.4 SDK on the Flex SDK. For more information, see http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/how-overlay-air-sdk-flex-sdk.html
That link is dead as of now, its a known issue. Will be fixed in the final release.
Thanks,
Hari

Publish with AIR 2.6 SDK for AIR 3.4?

Any reason I can't/shouldn't publish using the AIR 2.6 SDK even thought many users will have AIR 3+? My least common denominator is targeting Mac OS X 10.5 systems so I need AIR 2.6, but don't need any features in AIR 3. So I'd rather publish one set of .air files instead of 2.6 and 3.x files.

from http://blogs.adobe.com/cantrell/archives/2011/03/how-to-use-air-2-6-with-flash-builder-4.h tml:
Right-click on your project and choose "Properties".
Select the "Flex Compiler" section.
In the "Additional compiler arguments" field, add -target-player=11.
Click "OK".

Flex Builder 3.3 need to add AIR 2.0 SDK

I have an AIR app developed using Flex SDK 3.3 and need to add new functionality contained in AIR 2.0 SDK - e.g. openWithDefaultApplication().
How can I add the updated AIR SDK to give me access to this new method ?

This is pretty easy, but not too intuitive. You will first need to download the version of the SDK that includes the version of AIR that you wish to use. Then following these instructions to get it to work : http://quetwo.com/2008/10/26/flash-player-10-and-flex/ (those instructions were written to get a specific feature working in an older version of Flash Player, but you should get the basics from it).
Essentially, you extract the SDK version into your SDKs folder in your copy of Flash Builder/Flex Builder. Then you tell Flash Builder about the new SDK that you have available.

How can I overlay AIR 3.5 SDK in Flash Builder 4.7?

I'm trying to overlay the new Air 3.5 sdk in Flash Builder 4.7 but the option to use specifed sdk is unavailable in the project preferences. What is the solution here?

Hi,
Can you please let me know whether you have overlaid it on Win/Mac?
When you have created the mobile project what does app.xml show? for example if you have 3.5 overlaid you should be able to see something like this in app.xml
<application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/3.5">
For overlaying AIR 3.5 SDK on Flex SDK 4.6 locally following the instructions mentioned in the below url and then create a Flex Mobile project using that SDK.
Overlay help document link : http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/how-overlay-air-sdk-flex-sdk.html
Let me know if you need more information.

I would like to inquire how to use air 2.7 sdk in flash cs5.5.

I would like to inquire how to use air 2.7 sdk in flash cs5.5.
I have searched some solutions online and tried to copy air2.7 content in air2.6 folder(replaced the old one). I then did some efficiency tests but I don't see any improvements at all. Did I miss anything?
Besides that, There's a display ratio problem if I publish the ipa in landscape mode. I can't interact with the program either. But it is not a problem if the ipa is published in portrait mode.

FB4.7 SDK vs. AIR 3.4 SDK

It seems that 4.6.0 SDK provided with Flash builder 4.7 is incosistent with AIR 3.4 SDK available for download:
under 4.6.0 SDK available in FB 4.7
- I can build my project nicely, no warnings, no errors, unit tests runs
- when I compare this sdk to 4.6.0 sdk that is available for download on adobe sites 70% of files is different
When I apply AIR 3.4 SDK over 4.6.0 SDK from FB 4.7
- I have a lot of warnings (missing constructor)
- errors: 'FlexUnitTestRunnerUI' declaration must be contained within the <Declarations> tag, since it is not assignable to the default property's type 'Array' or element type 'mx.core.IVisualElement'. FlexUnitApplication.mxml /Definitions/src/main/flex line 32 Flex Problem
When I apply AIR 3.4 SDK over 4.6.0 SDK downloaded from http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/flex-sdk-download.html
- again the same errors and warnings
- plus: The swc '...\sdks\flex\4.6.0-AIR3.4\frameworks\libs\framework.swc' has style defaults and is in the library-path, which means dependencies will be linked in without the styles. This can cause applications, which use the output swc, to have missing skins. The swc should be put in the external-library-path.
- not sure what compiler I use (ASC2? or original one)
There is also a lot of inconsistencies with ant scripts. These releases are really unfortunate
how to fix those errors?

resolved in another thread http://forums.adobe.com/message/4674279
Flash Builder 4.7 Preview already contains this same version of AIR 3.4 with ASC 2.0. It includes this SDK in a captive way tied to a speciifc plugin and is not currently intended to be customizable like a Flex SDK. For example, in the labs preview of FB 4.7, it is here on a Win 64 bit install:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4.7 (64 Bit)\eclipse\plugins\com.adobe.flash.compiler_4.7.0.345990\AIRSDK
Note: you should not overlay "AIR 3.4 with ASC 2.0" on top of a Flex SDK. It is not a supported scenario and ASC 2.0 replaces the legacy compiler entry points.
I'll ask our team to update the release notes to mention this.

Air 2.5 sdk? Submission problem with version tag.

Hi
I'm trying to submit an app that uses AIR sdk 2.5, Flex 4.1
I get an error after uploading saying that the 'version' tag is missing in -app.xml
The xml has a 'versionNumber' tag, and if I try to add a version tag FlashBuilder 4 refuses to create a release build (no errors are given, it just quits and no .air file is created).
Could someone please advise, can we submit apps made with AIR 2.5 sdk?
If so why can't I create a release build after adding the version tag to -app.xml ?

I'm agree, but when you have a complete automated system to build OpenScreen projects.... it is not really easy to hack it just for InMarket submission
AIR 2.5 is not official, I hope InMarket will be update really really soon.

How to install AIR 3.6 SDK in FB 4.7 without breaking iOS apps

i downloaded the the Air 3.6 SDK with compiler from the labs website, unpacked it on mac, put the contents into the AIRSDK folder under the com.adobe.flash.compiler... folder as specified.
relaunch FB 4.7, and it shows that the AIR SDK is now 3.6. update my name space to use 4.6, can compile and run no problem in AIR simulator, HOWEVER, the minute i try to export an IOS app, or run in IOS simulator or do anything with IOS, it craps out and i get the mess age"AIR For Apple IOS support in Flash Builder is not support", which means something is wrong, and of course it points me to instructions for FB 4.5 which are inapplicable....
this is extremely frustrating for me, because i am hitting a nasty bug in AIR 3.5 and hoping that adobe has fixed the iOS app generator bug that i am encountering in AIR 3.5 where my final apps just show a blank screen and don't run at all... yet work fine in the AIR and IOS simulators...
hoping someone else has wrestled with this. How come only a few people have had this problem, and nobody has reported a solution.
would be nice if Adobe put some effort into reducing the number of files inside FB... it is over 25,000 files, and i gotta say, that is sloppy work to have so many files and therefore thousands of dependencies. Each dependency is a link that potentially can break. Far better to use collections of files that cannot be broken.
And the update process should be no more than replacing a folder and restarting FB. I have spent 10 hours trying to get this to work, any help towards a solution would be greatly appreciated.

Did you try the newly released SDK from official page, rather than labs? I would also suggest running FB with Java 1.6, if you have it on Java 1.7 - FB4.7 is known to yield some quirks with new java VMs.
Flash Builder is developed on top of Eclipse platform, which is basically a pluggable architecture - nothing wrong with that. Number of files do not really affect the overall application performance. In general you should not touch that, unless you really know what you doing and can manage all the dependencies on your own. I agree, though, that's is quite unfortunate that Adobe decided to hide the AIR SDK deep inside plugins, instead dragging it out to a top-level folder, where it's visible and available for change. It was possible with Flex SDK configured externally, so why not here?

AIR projects broken SDK 4.5.0.18623 to SDK 4.5.0.19786

Hero SDK 4.5.0.18623 works in Flash Builder 4 with AIR 2.5 With the release of SDK 4.5.0.19786 I can no longer compile an AIR project in Flash Builder 4, I receive the following error:
Process terminated without establishing connection to debugger.
error while loading initial content
Launch command details: "/Applications/Adobe Flash Builder 4/sdks/4.5.0.19786/bin/adl" -runtime "/Applications/Adobe Flash Builder 4/sdks/4.5.0.19786/runtimes/air/mac" "/Users/mritchie/Documents/Adobe Flash Builder 4/TestProject/bin-debug/Main-app.xml" "/Users/mritchie/Documents/Adobe Flash Builder 4/TestProject/bin-debug"
However, SDK 4.5.0.19786 does work with AIR applications in Flex Builder Burrito. I should mention that AS3/Flex web projects do compile in Flash Builder 4 with 4.5.0.19786 if you have Flash 10.2 installed and set on the project settings. This seems to break just AIR projects.

I know it was awhile ago, but I'm struggling right now with all this...
How do I add Air 2.6 to my currently 1.5.3 version?
I updated to Flex SDK 4.5, and it throws connection to debbuger error...

AIR 3.4 SDK question

Hi
I'm using Flash CS5 to build an AIR app. Do I need to install the SDK, or is that only when you have Flex?
And if so, where do I install it? I downloaded it, unzipped it, but am unsure what to do next, and there are no installation instructions with it.
Cheers

Hi,
You have to overlay AIR SDK for which you have to follow the steps mentioned at http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/overlay-air-sdk-flash-professional.html

AIR 3.4 SDK Beta with iOS6 Support is missing BETA 2 update

We are trying to get our application that uses native extensions working with iO6 and AIR 3.4. I can see from the website that there was an update on August 7th, and the top links show that update in the link date:
Ie: http://labsdownload.adobe.com/pub/labs/flashplatformruntimes/air3-4/air3-4_p2_sdk_mac_080712.tbz2
However the links under “AIR 3.4 SDK Beta with iOS6 Support”, have not been updated. (And that is oviously the build we are most interested in)
http://labsdownload.adobe.com/pub/labs/flashplatformruntimes/air3-4/air3-4_p1_sdk_ios6_mac _071612.tbz2

So I found the problem. I had installed beta 1 in a folder called AIR 3.4 ... I installed beta 2 in a folder called AIR 3.4 Beta2
I did however point Flash CS6 to use the AIR 3.4 Beta2 SDK ... it must not like something about this. Once I deleted both SDK's and then put Beta 2 in a folder simply titled AIR 3.4 everything works again.

AIR 2.6 SDK : APKPackager.setDebugHost Error

I've had no problem at all launching my Android AIR app on my Samsung Vibrant phone.
However, I just downloaded installed the new AIR 2.6 SDK, updated my application descriptor to 2.6 and can test without issue on the desktop; however, attempting to either Run or Debug on my phone avails the following error:
An internal error occurred during: "Launching Rhuz - Mobile".
com.adobe.air.apk.APKPackager.setDebugHost(Ljava/lang/String;)V
If I switch my compiler settings back to 2.5 and revert the descriptor, I can still test on desktop and phone. The issue only appears with the 2.6 SDK.
Google is no help at all, so I'm giving it a shot here. I'm running Flash Builder Burrito on Win 7 x64.

For those interested in using 2.6 with Flash Builder 4, please check out Christian Cantrell's blog where he describes a compiler argument that can be added to your project that will allow you to work around the problem:
