Air Desktop Notification

All,
I am in process of developing a Adobe air application with some basic business features . I am using windows o/s
I have been able to push my application on system tray but am unable to get desktop alerts when its on system tray , some what like gamil or yahoo .
I did lot of googl-ing but couldn't find a way out.
Any sort if help or leads would be useful
Thanks

Pretty much similar to a small notification window which pop up at the right corner of your windows screen when you get a new mail on GMAIL and stay there for a few seconds and then goes back again.
Same as some one pings you on yahoo and a small notifications pops up at the right corner of screen.
Thanks

What would I use for windows based system?
Most solutions use pop up windows in the Adobe AIR application. Take for instance an application like Tweetdeck. I don't think there is a Windows equivilent to Growl but I could be wrong. I would suggest posting your topic in the Adobe AIR Development forum to go about getting started with an AIR application.

Can I see my macbook air desktop on apple tv?
Thank you,

Welcome to the Apple community.
No, unfortunately you cannot currently do that.
You may be able to do this under the next operating system "mountain lion", subject to any hardware restrictions there maybe.

How to load a FLEX application in an AIR desktop application.

I am creating an AIR desktop application (mx:WindowedApplication). I need to load another remote FLEX application (mx:Application) inside my AIR application.Is it possible ? If then ,please mention how to achieve this ..

If it is bundled with the air app, then it's as easy as using the SWFLoader class.
If it's loading from a remote host, you need to load it into your app as a ByteArray first.
More info here: http://aaronhardy.com/flex/loading-a-remote-module-into-a-local-app/
The example is for Modules, but the principal is the same I believe.

Include Air ( desktop app ) inside Mobile app permited by Apple / Android?

Include Air ( desktop app ) inside Mobile app permited by apple / android?
This is my question....:
I need a "viewer" app run in a desktop machine... via p2p... ( done and working )
I will like to include it in my iOS / Android Release, an then by example move it to the documents folder.
Run iTunes and then copy the file from the shared document folder.
Is this permited by apple / android / adobe ?
Thanks....

just tracing some kind of tests I'm doing.
A couple of hours ago I left working 2 instances of my Application, leaving alone this computer: one instance is the Mac desktop version and the other one is the Web version. In this case both versions were running on the same computer (an iMac with OS X Mavericks):
1) the AIR/Mac version have been recompiled yesterday with the new AIR4(.0.0.1619 - AIR 3.8 is used to fall in a equivalent way - no changes)
2) the Web version have been compiled targeting FP 11.8 and it is running on Chrome browser with PepperFlash NOT disabled (which reports version MAC 13.0.0.80, the latest)
I left working both the Mac and the Web versions of the Application opened on the pc screen (= not minimized) but kept totally behind some Terminal/ssh windows (= not on OS focus and the system is not asked to update any screen area of the app for sure).
I came back after about 2 hours and I got the browser version connected&running (but it is not a rule) and I also found the AIR-based Mac version disconnected (uau, usually I found the app disconnected but with the screen freezed at last user look ->) which rapidly reconnects upon my click on the Apple dock icon (bring to front).
Why these different behaviours? I ask to myself.
The two versions of the software are TOTALLY the SAME application: except for the first Flash file (a 24kb swf file for the Web version and a 170kb dmg file for the Mac version), basically a platform-dependent loader, both versions loads the same remote swf modules. Of course t is AIR (or my first Flash file?).
I attach the source code of the Mac version of the [first file] AIR-based application at the following url:

_Adobe_, is it a bug? isn't it?

AIR desktop app installation prob

Gidday
I'm having trouble getting my AIR desktop app (AIR2.5 with a self-signed certificate) to do auto updates. I've had it updating fine in the past, but now get the following message:
"This application cannot be installed because this installer has been mis-configured. Please contact the application author for assistance."
Here's my method when I test the installation:
- publish a new AIR file using the SAME version number as the currently released app eg 1.017
- install it on my local machine
- publish a new AIR file with an incremented version number, in this case 1.018
- set my text file that the app checks online for updates to contain 1.018
- upload 1.018 AIR file to my site
- run the desktop app (version 1.017). It successfully detects there's a new version, and downloads it.
- it starts to install, and then I get the error
I've researched this all afternoon, and have found articles mainly talking about expired certificates. So I created a new certificate, and the problem still occurs.
Also, I've tried uninstalling my app from my local machine, but I still get the installation error.
Any ideas how to rectify this, so that I can continue using auto updating rather than force people to uninstall and download the new version for installation?
Thanks for your help.

Nevermind - the txt file that contains the version number and the url for the updater has the url for my live site, not my test one, so I changed it , and it installed fine.

How do I get Adobe Air Desktop App to notify user that a URL text file has been updated?

How do I get an Adobe Air Desktop App to notify user that a URLRequest ".txt" file has been updated? via blinking system tray icon or something.
New to Air and need someone to point me in the right direction. I have been searching web for hours and probably not asking the question right.
I have a very simple Desktop App that just loads a text file from a web location into a dynamic text field at a set timer. it just repeats this action on the timer. right now every 5 minutes
What would the actionscript be to tell the Air App to look at the date or time stamp of the ".txt" file and notify user if its new?
Thanks

Hello,
I'm sorry you're having trouble. I'm fairly certain this problem is occurring on the Air side and not on the Acrobat.com side of things. Please try reposting your question in the Air forums.

Adobe AIR desktop app with an embedded runtime

Hi,
Does an Adobe AIR desktop app with an embedded runtime (standalone/portable) that got published on Windows work on a Mac too?
Thanks

No, you need to compile a "bundle" with ADT on each platform. On Windows it creates a directory with an .exe and the AIR runtime. On OS X it creates a .app file.

Best Way to RICH HTML Editor on Air Desktop

Hi, actually i trying to get an WYSWYG editor to work on air.
Something like tinyMCE / ckeditor ( Like the one i´m using while writing this question).
I want to paste images there and work with tables too...
For the moment, what i found is that i should use an stageWebView to load an html ....
I made a html page and uploaded to my server.
It works if i go to the page via browser, but when i try to load it to the stagewebview , the editor is not there...
I´m flash CS6 and air desktop 3.9
Any idea on how this can be achieved ? Maybe another aproach ? Any component out there ?
Thanks in advance,
Gonçalo Miguel

I would initially assume it's not working because TinyMCE may think it's running from the wrong path. The same way you must configure most of those editors to know "relatively" where its files are, TinyMCE may simply not be able to find its libraries. For example if you're using an invalid relative include like <script type="text/javascript" src="<your installation path>/tinymce/tinymce.min.js"></script> where <your installation path> is incorrect.
A quick way to find out is simply point to the script with a full address, http://www.yoursite.com/<your installation path/tinymce/tinymce.min.js
Just tried it quick, works for me:
And running local using File (with a wrapper HTML):

Hi Justin,
ok, assuming that your external SWF tries to access some hosting application context (methods/properties) you could try:

AIR ANE Notifications

Has anyone tried creating ANE notifications in Flash Pro CS5.5 yet? I'm doing it for android and ios.
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/native-extensions-for-air/extensions/notification.html
other important info comes from:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/air/build/WS597e5dadb9cc1e0253f7d2fc1311b491071-8000.html
I tried to follow the articles closely but i'm getting this error:
"VerifyError: Error #1014: Class com.adobe.ep.notifications::NotificationManager could not be found."
I've added the swc (the .ane file converted to a swc that came with the article's zip file) to my fla's "actionscript 3.0 settings" library path and set its "link type" to "external". Also, I did the AIR 3.0 overlay in Flash Pro but I don't think that really matters since Flash cannot compile it properly anyway.
Here is my code taken mostly from the article. (probably not the best! i'm no expert.)

To finally bring this into the android emulator, I believe I need to create a working swf with no errors. But of course that is where I'm stuck!
If you look at the files provided for the vibration ANE they have included an actionscript library with the ANE zip files:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/native-extensions-for-air/extensions/vibration.html
Is it possible this is missing from the files for Notifications?
Thanks.

@ brad5151:i hope you get notifications working! keep trying! but i'm afraid its missing code. for the vibration example, there is an additional swc (VibrationActionScriptLibrary.swc) that comes with the ANE. but the notification ANE didn't come with an additional swc. there is a "com" folder, but it only has html help files in it. i think maybe its a mistake or something.
1. I wondered about this. But i`v change extension ane to swc and i imported this to fdt. And I have all classe in it. Imports are corect - without any error. But still I dont know is this corect solution.
@brad5151:changing my code to: public var notificationManager:NotificationManager= new NotificationManager(); as you suggested doesn't help. if you look at the vibration links above, he did the same thing i did. he didn't create a "new Vibration()" until after he tested that it "isSupported".
2. In VibrationActionScriptLibrary.swc You have Vibration class and in this class is "
public static function get isSupported() : Boolean;" this is static method. You invoked to this method like this "Vibration.isSuporrted" (capital V). And You can do this without new vibration. Thats why in vibration extension is ok. But when you check class NotificationManager (com.adobe.ep.notifications) isSupported method isnt static. You have check it like this "notificatin.isSuporrted. (small n)" When You have new declaration after if there is an error.
@brad5151:anyway, i cannot build the project. i get this error now: "1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: NotificationEvent." if i cut out all references to NotificationEvent's, then i get the same error for NotificationManager and Notification.
Check my answer number 1
@brad5151: "i got the exact same error code as you when i published: "Error creating files. An Implementation for native extensions com.adobe.Vibration required by the application was not found for the target platform." - I have this error when I published it directly to my phone :/ Do not know why...
Still I didnt get notification working! I hope I find some time to "play" with it :]
I`m not an expert. I`m still learning. Maybe I`m mistaken (especially in changing ane to swc :] ). Sorry if I`m wrong.
