AIR Mobile Simulator disappears when tracing to output

This has been an issue for some time. When using the AIR mobile simulator to debug an app, if there are trace statements, the mobile simulator controls window disappears completely and cannot be interacted with. So you have no way to turn on the touch layer or simulate orientation change while debugging. Testing the movie (without debugging) does not exhibit the same behaviour. Last tested with AIR 16

I had this issue on earlier versions of AIR. Don't know if this is will fix your problem, but for me it had to do with listeneres and additional calls happening before initating the webview. By moving "webview.stage = this.stage;" up before "webView.viewPort = new Rect...", it worked again.

StageWebView not displayed in Flash Pro Air Mobile Simulator (if render GPU)

Hi guys - just wasted too much time with this - thought I'd mention it here - may help someone in future.
I've got a mobile app which uses StageWebView for a news/info page.
However my app is mainly graphics so I use GPU render mode.
When I test the app using the Air Debug Launcher (Mobile) the StageWebView is not displayed.
If I flip the render mode to Auto it shows just fine in the simulator.
Most importantly - GPU does work fine when deployed to the actual device.
I'm pretty sure this was not an issue a month or 2 ago (possibly an issue with current AIR version displaying StageWebView on desktop - I'm currently on 3.8.0.910 ( see http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1175722 ).

I have a spark textinput, this textinput is stuck and wont disappear when poping or pushing to a new view any idea ?

i have a spark textinput, this textinput is stuck and wont disappear when popping or pushing to a new view any idea ? also sometime this textinput and when scrolling is stuck in a certain x-y position and do not move with scroll
below is my code:

Hi, it sounds like you are running into a known issue with a mobile app using the spark textinput (assuming its mobile as you are referring to piping and pushing views)
The kind folks over at Flexicious have provided a solution to this problem

Need HTTPService and play video in flex 4.6 Air Mobile App

We are porting a flex 3.2 app to mobile app. The 3.2 app uses mx.rpc.http.HTTPService to send XML requests for data and launch video web pages. Will a flex 4.6 Air Mobile app be able to do the same? If so, what replaces mx.rpc.http.HTTPService? I read that mx components will not work in Flex mobile apps.

HI,
Its working fine.And the mxml components which are displayobject should not be used in the mobile application except the chart.
So nothing wrong with using "mx.rpc.http.HTTPService",you can also use <s:HTTPService/>
Also there is a nice way to see which components should be used or which not for the mobile application.
Simply mouse over on the component when you have used it.You can see a message on that if that is not optimized for the mobile application like for the combobox you can see this message:-
"Adobe discourages using ComboBox when targeting profiles: mobileDevice."
While this is not the case with <s:HTTPService/>.

Important note, do NOT sleep your macbook Air with headphones attached until this is resolved.
Ive done a good best of testing on same to confirm not to do that
also if you have the APP "BOOM" installed........ remove it

Detected duplicate HTTP-based FlexSessions in CF10 with Air Mobile (3.4) IOS and Android apps

We're getting the "duplicate session" error using Flash Remoting from Air 3.4 Mobile Apps ( IOS and Android ) with Coldfusion 10 Standard.
faultCode:Server.Processing.DuplicateSessionDetected faultString:'Detected duplicate HTTP-based FlexSessions,
generally due to the remote host disabling session cookies.
Session cookies must be enabled to manage the client connection correctly.' faultDetail:'null'
Have read most of the docs about this error -all to do with LCDS
Notes:
Not using LCDS,
No Remote Calls from loaded Sub-Apps,
No Errors from the Flex Web App which is pretty much identical and calls the same cfcs.
The error does not happen all the time and is hard to reproduce - say 5% of app sessions at a guess.
Could it be a two first time remote calls hitting the server together before a session is set up?
Our remoteObjects are in two places 1) Main Application.mxml and within a class compiled into the main app - can't see how this would be an issue.
I enabled session management for the CFCs in Application.cfc but still occurs. Is this neccessary - it's not in any docs?
Could this be something to do with the app not being shut down - as is typical with mobile users? When they resume use after a day or two surely a new session will be created?
Please advise thank you.

For our profect I think this issue was caused as follows:
Believing that remoting was full asynchronous we fired a 2 or 3 remote calls to the server at the same time ( within the same function ) - usually when the users goes to a new section of the app.
This seemed to trigger the duplicate http session error since according to http://blogs.adobe.com/lin/2011/05/duplication-session-error.html two remote calls arriving before a session is created will cause 2 sessions to be created.
Our current solution ( too early to say it works ) is to daisy chain the multiple calls together .
Also there seemed to be an issue where mobile apps that never quit ( thanks Apple! ) caused the error when activated after a few hours.
I guess the session expires on the server and the error above occurs on activation.
So the mobile apps now ping the server with a remote call when activated after sleeping for more than one hour.
All duplicate http errors are silently caught and reported.
Fingers crossed we won't get any more!

How to use ScaleNine themes to skin an Adobe Air Mobile App

Hi,
I'm rather new to Adobe Air development But I really like it! Now that I've created my app I would like to skin it. I've found ScaleNine (http://www.scalenine.com/gallery/gallery-1.php) which has ready made cool skins for Flex and Air. I downloaded the samples and they compile and work beautifully. HOWEVER: I can't seem to be able to use them to skin my Air mobile app.
Can anyone post an example ViewNavigatorApplication themed with one of the themes there? this one (http://www.scalenine.com/themes/blend/Blend.html) looks as though someone tailored it to my app :-)
Thanks a lot!
Avi

I don't know how your application is structured, but if you can split sections off into separate SWFs(plain AS3 document) then you could host those section SWFs online and require the user to download them on first run.
You could use the FileReference object to download the SWFs, save them to the File.applicationStorageDirectory, and then display/load them up with the Loader object when needed from the app storage directory. You would possibly need to check to see if the files are present at every boot of the app though as a user could "Clear Data" or "Clear Cache" of the app in the Settings of their device and one or both of those could/would delete the downloaded files.

How to Symbolicate an AIR mobile crash report on iOS?

I am developing a game that uses the iOS GameKit API via a native extension. It works great over WiFi. But when I switch to Bluetooth, I get intermittent crashes.

So I need to know how to turn those memory addresses into functions.   That would help me out a ton.   I found a lot of information on how to do it manually via the dSym... but nothing that seems to apply to an AIR mobile app. (And nothing that seems to actually work)

USB communication AIR desktop and AIR mobile app

Hi! Does somebody know the possibilites of USB communication between and AIR desktop app and an AIR mobile app. I need to send files from an desktop application to the external memory on an mobile device. Is it possible for the desktop app to recognise when the mobile is connected. And is it possible for the mobile app to send commands the desktop app? So I need a two way communication. Anybody who has any ideas?

Really old thread, checking in.

Unfinished email disappears when switching Apps

When preparing an email on my iPad Air, I sometimes need to check a calendar or another app. Switching to that other app, apparently deletes my incomplete email and I can't find it. Any suggestions how to avoid this problem or does someone know what happened to the unfinished email message?

The unfinished email shouldn't disappear when changing apps. To make sure you can save it if it does, first tap cancel, then tap save draft.

Adding settings panel info for AIR mobile iPad

Has anyone added a Settings Bundle property for an AIR mobile iPad application? What I am seeking is the ability to put a version number into the ipads settings panel for an AIR mobile application.
Is this a "PreferenceSpecifiers" item for the *-app.xml under <InfoAdditions> element? Or something else?
Thanks,
Jeff

YCanvas looks interesting - but it was too late for me.
I ended up developing the whole thing for offline map handling. It's been released as a desktop (Windows/OSX) version, Android, and iOS - it's in both the Apple App Store and Google Play. It's called "ActiveCaptain Companion". There's a lot more being done with it. It's basically a navigation system for boats that use our huge social navigation databases. In this first version, when you're approaching an on-the-water hazard, the app speaks to you to warn you. It's the first use of voice on boats for warnings and directions like this. There have been about 25,000 installs in the first 8 weeks. I'm expecting many more as the next set of functionality is added - there have been previous few bugs in this roll out version.
The apps are free on all platforms.

I want to access the options in the context menu when clicking on a dropdown list in the bookmarks toolbar, but the context menu disappears when I try to click on one of the options. How can I keep the menu from disappearing?

I have several dropdown lists in my bookmarks toolbar and would like to access the properties for some of the the items. This used to work fine. However, now, when I go to the list and place the cursor on a particular item, the context menu that is usually available on a right click disappears when I try to access one of the options. This is the menu that begins with Open. What can I do to regain this functionality? I really need the information in the Properties section. I'm using Firefox 3.6.8

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
Also check the Mouse driver settings in the Control Panel.

As a student, you might be able to get Office for Mac from the college bookstore at a substantial discount. Otherwise, I think your best option for documents that need to be shared with Office users is to get one of the free Office clones such as LibreOffice.

Is there anyway to get an App Tab to stay when I close the program then reopen it?...they always disappear when I open a new window etc.

Is there anyway to get an App Tab to stay when I close the program then reopen it?...they always disappear when I open a new window etc.
And I thought the whole point of an App Tab was to always have those tabs there no matter what window is open all the time period.
It's a minor complaint but I would really appreciate the option to permanently have them there.

I thought that app tabs would be more persistent, like pinning programs to the taskbar in Windows, but this is not the case.
Instead, once you close a Firefox window, all its tabs and app tabs are lost.
Essentially, this means that the close button in the upper-left corner of a Firefox window is now a "kill all open tabs and loose all App Tabs without warning++ " button. That is not cool.
I realize that "Firefox > Quit Firefox" behaves as intended, but many people use the more obvious red close button instead of the menu to close windows on a Mac. And it is easy to forget that the red button is now also an app-tab-death button. I've lost my app tabs many times to this issue. It is an unforgiving user interface decision which hampers the usability of app tabs. Why should I go through the extra clicks of setting up app tabs if I can loose them so easily?
Ideally, App Tabs could be saved separately from the currently open windows (perhaps create an option to save then to a special Tab Group that opens on startup?). App tabs would be exceedingly useful to me if they weren't so easy to loose.
On that note, saving Tab Groups would also be a useful functionality.
++ You will get a "closing multiple tabs" warning if you have only one window open, and that one window has multiple non-app tabs open, and you have enabled the warning in Preferences. But this too unreliable to help prevent the loss of app tabs.
