Air for iOS 7 App  - Listen for wireless Keyboard events

Greetings i've been reviewing this older posting relating to the same problem that I have, but cannot surmise the solution from the thread. Could someone help point me in the right direction?
https://forums.adobe.com/message/5618417
I've built a flash ios app that relies on the input from 5 keys to function. I'm using Flash CS6 and AIR 13.0.0.111 for iOS. The app wont recognize the input from my bluetooth keyboard though.
This code works until loaded onto the iPhone:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, ScrollDown);
function ScrollDown(e:KeyboardEvent):void{
if (e.keyCode == 83){
I guess in need to use a event.CHANGE listener but I can't find any similar tutorials to follow.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know how wireless keyboard work for iDevices...
Try to add StageText, tap on it and try to edit text using your keyboard. Could StageText hook keyboard input?

  • Can I use macbook air for ios app development?

    I would like to know if i can use macbook air for ios app development or macbook pro is only option?

    Just to reinforce what shldr2thewheel says - be very sure what size memory you want if you get a Macbook Air. There is *no* way to change after purchase. My advice is to go for the 4GB option - especially if you want to do app development.
    The internal storage (solid state drive) of the Air can be upgraded if required but it will probably be an expensive option. If you don't think the storage will be enough then maybe using a USB connected drive to hold non-essential files is an option.
    As to deciding between the Air and Pro you are basically making a decision between portability (Air) and expandability/bigger screens (Pro). What is more important to you?

    The MBA is so small and thin many people can't help thinking it is like a Windows netbook - an underpowered toy. It isn't. There's nothing I do on my top end iMac that I can't - and don't - do on my MBA. Of course the iMac has a faster processor, bus speed, and a discrete video card so it is much faster than my MBA. Then again, my computers spend more time waiting for me to do something than I wait for them - and this includes using Photoshop and compiling code.
    If I were writing large programs - something like Word for example - I'd want a very fast processor to speed up the compile/debug/compile cycle. But for iOS development your codebase will be much smaller. Frankly I can't see that much difference between a 13" MBA and a 13" MBP for development purposes. Now a top of the line 15" MBP is a different matter with its much faster CPU and separate video card.

  • Is there any downside mixing Objective-C with C++ for iOS apps?

    I'd like to use C++ since it's fast and more dynamically in memory reference.
    Is there any downside mixing Objective-C with C++ for iOS apps?
    When googled for info, I only found tutorials about how to let xcode compile Objective-C with C++.
    Thanks for help.

    Both Objective-C and C++ are (more or less) extensions of C.
    C supports manipulation of pointers and casting of pointers, this implies that both Objective-C and C++ will be able to manipulate C data like arrays, structs ...
    Objective-C has classes like NSData to read/write blocks of bytes from/to file and to access ranges of bytes when the data is loaded into memory.
    C++ probably has similar classes (I'm not well versed in C++ so I don't know).
    If you want to look into using C++ you will probably want to look at Objective-C++, the link below has links to docs on how to use C++ with Objective-C:
    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3684112/what-is-objective-c
    Thanks for the info, NSData does what I need.
    A replied in the link also mentioned that he's using C++ in his application too. As long as I'm aware of memory management (prevent memory leaks, etc) as @disguise said, it should be fine.
    @etresoft indeed, but C is the base language of ObjC, there are ways to deal with.

  • Looking for an app lock for iOS 8

    I am looking for an app lock for iOS8, which lock all apps on my phone.
    Previously, Iwas using Android in which I used smart app protector app, which help me to lock all app I have on my phone and also provide facility of fake lock.
    Apps present in App Store as app lock, only lock photo, video, note, download and audio.
    I want to lock other apps too, like whatsapp, hike, messenger etc. but, no app is present.
    Please help me out.

    You would have to search the app store, however I'm not aware of any app that will lock multiple apps. There is nothing native in the iOS that allows for locking individual apps or all apps. Feedback to Apple goes HERE, and then click on the appropriate link.

  • Does the iOS app allow for digital signatures ?

    does the iOS app allow for digital signatures ?

    Hi,
    Currently, Adobe Reader mobile products (for iOS, Android, Windows Phone) do not support digital signatures.  But you can add handwritten signatures (as annotations) to PDF documents.
    For digital signatures for legally binding documents and contracts, I'd recommend the desktop version of Adobe Reader or Acrobat Pro/Standard.  Alternatively, you can use Adobe EchoSign for e-signatures.

  • TS1702 We use one ID for  the Apps store for 2 iPhones. In the second profile on the Macit is impossible to update apps there is a mistake. What is the decision?

    We use one ID for  the Apps store for 2 iPhones. In the second profile on the Macit is impossible to update apps there is a mistake. What is the decision?

    This happens when you both use the same Apple ID for iMessage.  To fix this you have two choices:
    On one of the phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID.  Note: you can still share the same ID for purchasing in Settings>iTunes & App Stores; or
    On both phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at".  Also uncheck the other phone's phone number, if present.

    If you didn't make an in-app purchase within the app then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

    The wierd is that the log file doesn't exists.
    Anyway I try everything... to reinstal my Flash Builder, reinstall all versions of java. I even try to make Xmx and Xms bigger size.. but nothing... still got the error.
    If I create new project... then everything works fine... Export Release Build work very well,
    but if I try to Export Release Build for my large project... then this error comes up.
    I look at my code and no find any errors...
    Build for android works as well, the error comes up when I try to build for iOS.
    Please Adobe - give us help how to fix this.
    Thank you

  • Adobe Air + Box2D.swc = TypeError: Error #1009 // New way to handle .swc files in Flash for iOS Apps?

    Hi,
    I need your help please - I have to update one of my iOS Apps. In this App I use Box2d for a simple maze game (it's an app for kids). When I publish & test this game on my Mac it works fine. I can drag my Hero (fish) through this Maze and all collision detections, gravity etc. work perfect.
    When I test it on my iPad it doesn't work. The device debugger shows this error message:
    TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

    Line 31: loader = new CLibInit();
    I guess "CLibInit" should come from the .swc file.
    The thing is:
    I didn't change anything in this maze game - it seems this has to do something with the new Flash and/or Adobe Air version. Box2D.swc file is included:
    It always worked like this - and it works when testing it on my Mac - but it is no longer working on my current system.
    So I started my Mac from an older system (10.9.5 on an external HD) and published the App from Flash CS6 and Adobe Air 13.0 - then it suddenly worked on my iPad as before. I was able to tap an the fish and drag it arround.
    The same project / app published from my current OS X 10.10 + Flash CC 2014 + Adobe Air 15.0.0.302 is not working. I always receive this Error Message - I can not drag the fish - nothing happens. And I have no idea why this happens and what else I could do. I searched the whole day for a solution but didn't find anything.
    So did anything change by the way Flash and/or Air handles .swc files? Is there an other way to include: import cmodule.Box2D.* / CLibInit ?
    Please - if anyone has a clue - please let me know!!
    Best regards

    Update:
    There is also an Android Version of this App. I just published and tested a new version of it on my kindle fire & Samsung Galaxy Tab 2. On both Tablets the maze works perfect. I'm able to drag the fish around etc.
    Then I published this Android Version for iOS and tested it on my iPad. Again I'm getting the Error message:
    TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

    ...and the fish is stuck - I can't drag it - nothing happens. So this error only occurs when I publish the App for iOS - as an .ipa. Did anything change in the way Air handles .swc files?
    I'm totally confused
    If anybody has an idea what I could try - PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!
