Air cs5 and template

Hello,
I'm trying to develop applications for Android.
1) I have the version of Flash included in Cs5 with solme litle examples of air, I need to download something else or air is already full?
2) there are some examples, on the web, of applications free to download from the net? I'm interested in examples with particular reference to the use of sound.
Thank you!

The namespace error is almost always the version of AIR that the apps XML indicates is wrong. The second line in your apps XML file is:
<application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/4.0">
I use AIR SDK 4.0 downloaded from here:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/air-sdk-download.html
If I changed that number to anything other than the same version of the SDK I'm using then I will get that error. Chances are you might be using an old template that points to the wrong SDK version.
If you don't have 4.0, you should download it from the link above and use it.
As for tutorials on creating mobile apps in general with AIR, there are tons of resources out here. You can start the basics here:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/air/build/WSfffb011ac560372f-5d0f4f25128cc9cd0cb-8000.html
And some videos:
http://tv.adobe.com/show/mobile-applications-101/
Ultimately other external resources like lynda.com can really help you.
If you have any specific questions, feel free to post those.
If you want to get serious about development you'll want to consider Flash Builder as a coder. It's an eclipse-based product that is much more developer-oriented. You can build pure ActionScript apps or you can tap into Apache (formerly Adobe) Flex, which is an entirely different component-based way to build apps. Flash Pro and Flash Builder can work together nicely to build a quality app. Building entirely in Flash Pro is possible however.
You can also try to FDT plugin and use eclipse for an alternate to Flash Builder.

Air for Android template missing from Flash CS5 Professional

I am trying to get started with developing android apps in flash. Most tutorials begin with my selecting the Air for Android template in Flash CS5 Pro. This option is not available to me. When I try to install the extension I get this: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashpro_extensionforair/
I am running the latest update for CS5.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
John

Hey James,
Thanks for the reply. I clicked the updates button but all I can find is the trial version of CS5.5. Is that correct?

Flash CS5 and updating to flash 10.3 and AIR 2.7

Hi, I have a simple question, but for the life of me I can't work out how to solve it.
I'm currently running Adobe Flash Professional CS5, and would like to update it to utilize some of the features in AIR 2.7 and Flash 10.3 / Flash 10.2. How do I do this?
I encountered a similar problem a ways back when AIR 2 was being released, and I had to resort to ultimately "overlay" the existing installations. I've looked around and found some similar third party resources pertaining to the latest updates, but I've failed to get them to work - some instructions for adding in 10.3 as a build target compile, but they don't seem to be running in 10.3, or the debug player is not running in 10.3.
Am I missing something really obvious? I'd think that when a major release is made, it should be straightforward to update your version of CSx to target that release, but it's anything but. I found the release notes for Flash 10.3(http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/901/cpsid_90194.html#main_authoring), and under authoring it says:
"Developers can access new APIs in the Flash Player 10.3 by making manual changes to their existing SDK/tooling configuration. To learn more about the new APIs, read the online ActionScript 3 reference documentation. Adobe Flash Professional CS5.5, Flash Builder 4.5, and Flex SDK 4.5 will not be updated for the new runtime."
Where can I find the manual changes required? And why do these releases require manual overlaying anyway?

Thanks for the reply.
After alot of messing around I managed to get Flash professional to have 10.3 as a target, and also managed to get a 10.3 version of the debugger to run when you select Debug Movie(Running Test Movie, which is what I usually do, still uses the original 10.1 player, and I can't find out how to update it). I'm not sure if it's buggy or I've done it wrong, because when targeting it to 10.3 and running my application through the 10.3 debugger, I seem to be loosing frame labels in some of my movie clips, getting an error:
ArgumentError: Error #2109: Frame label off not found in scene off
This is odd, because
a) I don't get said error when running with Test Movie which uses a 10.1 version of the player, and I never had it before with other versions. The symbol triggering the error clearly has a frame labeled off
b) There is no scene off in my project, I only have one scene which was the default, and it's called Scene 1.
Doing some traces, it turns out that the object is not having it's frame labels read in the 10.3 player, which is very odd and indicates to me some kind of bug or incorrect installation, but since I get the exact same error running it under the 10.3 projector, I'm inclined to think bug .
With regards to AIR 2.7, why do we need CS5.5 to use it?

AIR update and CS5 Help Application

Okay, question mostly answered, see below
Using the CS5 Adobe Community Help application, to post this question, for example, seems slow. Since Help uses AIR, I am wondering if updating to AIR 2.0 would speed that up (CS5 installed AIR 1.0 on the system). However, I would think that the Creative Suite would have automatically updated to AIR 2 if it were compatible. This doesn't seem to have happened, even more than two weeks after installing CS5 (AIR is supposed to autoupdate every two weeks). The questions I have are:
1. Is the Help app. I received compatible with AIR 2? According to documentation, Help 3.3 is supposed to use AIR 2, but as above, AIR 2 did not deploy. Could there be different versions of Help 3.3 for AIR 1 and AIR 2?
2. Can I manually update to AIR 2 simply by downloading the application from the Adobe website, or are there compatibility issues with AIR 1-based and AIR-2 based applications, or with the software updating?
3. Is there a way to force AIR 1 to update itself to AIR 2, or does the automatic update not consider that an update but an upgrade? AIR 2 supposedly has an update manager helper app. available, but not AIR 1, as far as I can tell.
It seems like my copy of CS5 sat on the shelf for awhile.
Thank you for any insights that can be given here.
Okay, the version of AIR is found in a plist file, and does not correspond to the "Version" folder in the Framework folder for the application. According to that, my version is all up-to-date.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407625.html
The software version can also be viewed using System Profiler in Utilities. AIR will be listed under the Frameworks.
Incidentally, the Adobe Application Manager updating application lists the AIR version as 1.5.3 in its inventory, and not the version according to the Framework folder. Maybe someone could chime in on why that would be. Did the older version of AIR use AAM for updating, while the newer version has a separate utility?

Mac OSX 10.5.8
Installed the whole CS5 Production Premium Suite, licensed version. Machine also has CS4 Production Premium. After installing, I went into PPro CS5, loaded a CS4 project, scrubbed the time line a few times, rendered it, did a capture via FireWire from my HDV camcorder, tried out "Scene Detect", swore about on screen-preview still not available on the Mac (why?????), and then went into the Help function to lookup HDV capture. The first time I got the message about the help file update, I ignored it. The second time, I tried to run it and got the error.
Hope this helps.

CS5 and Adobe AIR issue wih Help file

Photoshop and other CS5 apps; Mac Pro OS 10.6.5 -- everything up to date. Trying to use Help, Adobe AIR says installation is damaged. It apparently means the Help file, as AIR updates and installs OK. Same configuration on my Macbook Pro and Help works there. I copied the Help file from the laptop but still get the message.
So I'm trying to re-install the Help file -- I found the download but when I run it, it says the installer file is damaged. Where do I find that to download?
Thanks!

Hi Diane,
Sorry for the trouble you are having, and thanks for letting us know. The steps below should get you up and running (and update you to the latest Community Help AIR app which has some new features and improved functionality.
Uninstall the previous version of Adobe Help by removing and trashing the application from the Applications > Adobe folder
Delete the following directory: /Users/username/Library/Preferences/chc.4875E02D9FB21EE389F73B8D1702B320485DF8CE.1
IMPORTANT: Empty the Trash or Recycling Band to ensure proper removal of all files
Manually update the application at: http://www.adobe.com/support/chc/
The above solution is also available as Technical Support document here:http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/842/cpsid_84215.html
I hope this helps,
Chris

CS5 and the slideshow template

I just upgraded from Flash CS4 to CS5 and have discovered that the slide show template is no longer supported.
Does anyone know if flash slideshows will be supported in upcoming versions of the Flash player or will they be discontinued?

Thanks for the ideas!
When I try to open a CS4 fla containing a slideshow with CS5 it gives an error message "Slides and Forms documents are not supported in this version of Flash. Please open in a previous version."
I called Adobe support and was told I would have to reauthor the slide show as a frame based app. After working for several years creating slide based flash presentations this is not good news.
I guess my fear now is that if they dropped support for slides and forms in CS5 will they drop support for them in newer versions of Flash player as well. Yikes! That would sink me for sure.

Can LR 4 use Bridge CS5 Metadata Templates?

I have generated approx 30 + Metadata Templates in Bridge CS5 and I want to see if I can speed up my work flow when working in Lightroom 4.
So I suppose the question is ; is it possible to achieve the apparent impossible or is there a solution?
Thanks in advance

Does anybody know where they go?
Try this document from the Adobe Knowledge base:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/828/cpsid_82893.html
It is about PS and I can't find one for Bridge but it might be a guide to the location because that would be probably the same. I am a Mac user so can't confirm this myself

Loving Air 3 and the Captive Runtime

I just wanted to pass on a huge kudos to the Air team. We just released our first product (a free iOS Web Simulator for Windows) built using Air 3 and the captive runtime (release version). Tons of downloads, and not one singe report of an installation issue. I know the captive runtime isn't a panacea, but being able to whip out a simple install script, and an exe/app with no dependenices and some determinism regarding the runtime is very nice indeed for our use case.
I made sure to put a "Built with Air 3" link on our download page too

Really looking forward to Flex 4.6 as well, good time to be an Adobe dev!
Thanks again.

Version discrepancies in Flash CS5 and Catalyst CS5

A few month ago using ADL compiling for mobiles I noticed that the versions of ADL and AIR differed
in Flash CS5 and Catalyst. This caused me problems until I discovered it.
Package/version                       adl.exe              air.dll
Adobe Flash CS5                      2.0.1.12090       2.0.1.12090
Adobe Flash Catalyst CS5         1.5.3.9120         2.6.0.19120
I have seen the symptoms of this in other forums on the Internet.
No change even though I have updated the packages (last update of Flash came 2011-07-02).
Regards
/Ralf

The forums are not the place to post bugs/wishlist items.... Adobe rarely visits here. Use the link below, though it is probably too late for CS6 since CS6 appears to be on the verge of release - you can probably get a trial version of it and see for yourself.

Bridge CS5 "output templates" no longer loads; the output panel is blank. Where is the script?

Bridge CS5 "output templates" no longer loads after my system back-up; the output panel is blank.
The other Workspace features appear to be functional.
What/Where is the output script supposed to be?

If it worked before and you have changed nothing I would reset the preferences. Close Bridge then hold down the CTRL key and start Bridge. You should get a reset window with 3 optons.

I have had a problem with opening some PSD template files. It doesn't happen all the time and it doesn't happen with every template. All of the templates were downloaded as zip files and opened and saved using Photoshop CS 5 on a Windows XP PC.
As far as I know Photoshop can not open Zip files. If you unzip the zip archive and it contained PSD files. How do you know they were all saved on a XP system with Photoshop CS5 with max compatibility. The message you getting seem to be contradicting that.

CS5 and Arabic

I'm running CS5 and need to add some Arabic to an existing Ai file. Should I get the Middle Eastern version of Ai or is there a cheaper and easier alternative?

I gave this answer a while ago to on a different post
you can get an AI file with arabic formated text already in it, you can then use that existing text and replace it by copying new text into it or typing.
you can also create a paragraph or character style from existing document with arabic in it and apply it to other arabic. you can of course save the character styles into your default document.
you can search for an AI document with different arabic format options and make styles out of those because you won't be able to change type option like Kashidas, arabic or naskh justification, etc
so I guess my update to that solution is download the illustrator me trial. set up document with different arabic type layouts and use that document as a template for future arabic use. the paragraph and characters styles are very useful for this. I do a lot of arabic for my work and that's how I worked for a long time.

DW8 to CS5 and Framesets to CSS

Needs some direction urgently!
I upgraded from DW8 to CS5 and finally decided to change over from using frames to using CSS. My problem is I am lost. The templates are great, but there is something I am so stuck with.
Using frames I linked to pages and loaded in a specific target (frame). How do I do this using CSS. Or is there a way to just change content of the content area?

Thanks, but I am such a newb and think my explanation came across wrong.
What I did before is this.
Created a home page with frames (header frame where I put logo plus navigation, and mainframe). I then had more pages which would open in the mainframe when clicking on the navigational buttons on the header frame.
I now want to use...2 column liquid, left sidebar, header and footer. When clicking on a link in left side bar I want different pages / information to appear on the div container (geez hope I have this terminology right).
Hope you get what I am saying.
