App Updater Crashes on MacOS with Air 3.9

We just released a new version of our desktop Air app, nothing different with any of the configuration files except for a higher version number. One of our Mac users (10.8.5) who had already updated to Air 3.9 sees the auto updater dialog and it appears to download the new version but then immediately crashes and does not come back. I went to one our our Macs (10.8.5) that did not have the 3.9 Air update and ran the updater and it ran successfully as normal with no problems. I then uninstalled the newest build of our app, updated to Air 3.9, reinstalled the old version of our app, and ran the updater again and experienced the same crashing problem as the other Mac that had already updated. Testing with and without the Air 3.9 update on Windows 7 and 8 does not yield any problems.
Does anybody have any suggestions?

Could you please open a new bug report on this over at bugbase.adobe.com? When adding the bug, it would be great if we could get copies of both the new and older versions of your application. If you'd like to keep this private, feel free to email the installers to me directly ([email protected]).
Once added, please post back with the URL and I'll start our internal investigation.
Thanks,
Chris

Our EnergyWatch app crashes on Android with AIR 3.8

Please help!
We have been running an Android app - EnergyWatch - (available on Google Play) for about one year now. Suddenly after customers having received the 3.8 AIR upgrade the app crashes during initialisation. We are using Secure Socket API for communication, and USB debugging tells me that the app seems to crash just before it receives the ON_CONNECT event.
Everything still works fine on iOS (still runnning an older, embedded AIR runtime)
Everything also works fine on Windows with AIR 3.8 installed.
I've tried two different builds:
Flash Prof. CS 5.5, with AIR 2.6 (same build environment as the current version on Google Play)
Flash Prof. CS 6, with AIR 3.4.
Exactly the same behaviour on both builds.
I really don't know what to do.
1. Are there any changes made to the Secure Socket API, especially on Android?
2. Could we recommend our users to downgrade the AIR runtime? If possible, where can we find the previous runtime version?

HI, Tomas
     may i give you an advise?
   If you really want your app run stable . PLZ package with "captive runtime" .
In my experience. Adobe guys will change API Behavior ,change API ,change everything random except themself .   Do you remember the ShareObject behavior changed at AIR3.5.
since they cann't be trusted , you should always embeded AIR runtime . for your users, for yourself ,especially for adobe .
For all of AS3 developer ,God ,please bless us.

Flash Pro CC 2014 Crashes When Publishing with Air

While trying to publish my app with Flash Pro CC 2014 the program crashes. I'm using the current Beta version of AIR 15 (previous version had the same results) on a Mac (Yosemite OSX 10.10 beta 5, Not the public beta) . When I publish to just a swf file there is no problems. If I publish to Android, iOS or Desktop then Flash crashes. When the Adobe crash scene comes up I do submit the reports to Adobe. At the end I get a message telling me Adobe found a solution for the recent crash and to "click here" for further details. When I do it just goes to the Adobe home page with no help. Is there a solution or workaround? I've been using one of my other machines that has Mavericks on it for publishing for the time being. I would like to work at one machine and not transferring back-and-forth. Any help will be great!

The updates are not available @ http://www.adobe.com/support/flash/downloads.html#flashCC
The updates are available through Creative Cloud desktop app or through in-app update option.
You can also try by launching flash professional CC 2014 version you have installed and go to Help->Updates. This should ideally do it.
Incase, it is not updating after this, can you please let me know the type of Creative Cloud license that you own?
Do you belongs to an environment where Installation / update of applications are managed by IT team? In that case, please check with your IT team for how to get the latest update.

App store and Mail app are crashing in my mac air 10.9.5

All my apps are crashing and i am not able to open any of them . App store for Software update and Mail app, Photos app are all crashing. I have OS X 10.9.5 in my system. I removed Parallels trail version and also Clean My Mac app, Still i have the issue,Please help me to resolve the issue,

"CleanMyMac" purports to "clean up" "junk" files. What it really does is to corrupt the operating system and many applications.
The first thing you need to do is remove that software according to the developer's instructions. Never install it, or anything like it, again. Then see below.
If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
*The linked support article refers to OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.

App updated and syncing fine with ipad; updated from PC, but not for iphone. Updated on PC, but not on iphone

Product: iPhone 5
itune: 11.2.2.3; ios 7.1.1
iPhone 5 app updated fine from PC, but will not sync with iPhone.
Steps: Fire iTunes from PC, then connect iPhone, did app updates in iTunes, but did not sync with iPhone (the # updates stays the same next to "APP Store").
It worked fine for iPad App updates. I tried connect, disconnect, did not work. I also read some posted comments, but still cannot resolve the problem. Please help. Thanks!

Hello there, graced.
The following link from the iPhone Basics provides another way to update an app on your iOS device:

My iPad on system iOS 5.1 suddenly won't download app updates. No problem with my iPhone. What's going on?

Apps suddenly crashing on 5S (with iOS 7.0.3)

I installed 7.0.3 on my 4S, 5S and iPad when it came out (so a few days ago). Everything was fine.
Today, all of a sudden, apps are crashing on my 5S (and only my 5S). For example, if I click on a link in Mail, it immediately crashes (actually I think it's the launched Safari that's crashing, since Mail still shows up in the running apps display). I'm seeing Safari sometimes crash on its own. I'm seeing the FB app crash when I press the notifications or messages icon or try to open any link in it. I'm also seeing the Weather Channel and Weather Underground apps crash on opening.
Any idea what could be happening or how to fix it?

Go to settings>icloud>storage and back up>back up
after that preform a restore by going to
general>reset>erase all content and settings
this will delete everything except the enabled stuff on icloud.
You can view whats enabled by going to icloud in settings.

Crash on iOS with air 3.8 and higher

Hello,
We have an application we are deploying on PC & Mac using the FlashPlayer. We are porting the application on Android and iOS using Air Sdk. The application runs perfectly well in terms of performance. The game runs without any trouble til the end on Android but we are experiencing a crash on iOS.
The crash seems to be related to a memory issue. We profiled the application with Instruments and when the crash appears, the application consumes 90Megs of memory. This is for an iPhone 3GS. On an iPad2, the game crashes similarly around 100Megs of Ram used. The crash log refers to a bad access exception and as we are receiving a lot of low memory warnings, we assume it comes from a malloc that fails.
We obviously don't have any leaks left as the game runs well on all the other platforms. this is especially obvious as the game runs perfectly well on Android with the same sdk. We are rendering in gpu mode. We also tried to switch to cpu without any luck. The garbage collector seems to be triggering well as we can see the live bytes going down regularly depending on the clips being played.
What we don't understand is that the crash log says we are using around 50000 rpages, which corresponds to a total memory of 200Megs (4k per page). This is weird as Instruments tells us the application consumes 90Megs of Ram when the crash occurs.
The only big difference between the iOS and the other platforms is that the swf assets can't be unloaded. Therefore, once loaded, they stay in memory. Still, we tried to use as much movieclip as possible so we can stop them and remove them from the scene when they are not needed. This, to make sure the display data are released as often as possible.
Do you have any kind of advice to solve this issue ? This is becoming quite urgent as the game is finished and this bug prevents us from releasing the master build.
Regards.

Hi Chris,
We found the crash on iOS7 devices. The game native display is 16/9 so depending on the devices screen resolution, we have to apply black stripes on top/bottom of the screen. To make sure nothing bites on those stripes we have a mask applied directly on Lib.current. If we get rid of this mask, no more crash on iOS7.
The funniest thing is that without this mask, we also managed to reach act 6 on iOS6 and lower. Before that we couldn't get pass act 3. We are currently trying to remove all the masks we have to check if this solves our problem.
Does this pop something in your mind ? Could these masks lead to memory leaks on iOS devices ?
Thanks,
Philippe

Creative Suite CS6 Apps are crashing at launch with Mountain Lion

It seems there is a compatibility issue running Mountain Lion OS with Adobe Creative Suite Apps. Most crash on launch. Lightroom seems to work and Photoshop and Bridge also. Dreamweaver CS6 crashes and I use this program all the time. I am thinking I should go back to Lion. Anybody else have this problem?

Adobe had me do several things (complete re-install, mod the preferences, etc.) to my brand new 27" Imac, with Mountain Lion.
CS4 worked perfectly until i installed CS6. Sad to say i have been having some issue on the new user account as well.
As quoted by Team Adobe India,
"We wanted to inform you that, if the application is working on one user account and causing issue on another, then there is very little that can be done to resolve it. All the steps have already been performed from our side.
Please contact Apple, provide them with all the information and check with them if they can help you with troubleshooting the issue which is only on a specific user account."
CS4 worked fine on Mountain Lion.
CS6 is very unstable.
+1 point for Apple, and to the dungeons for Adobe

App is crashing on iOS6 with presentViewController, iOS5 works well

This code is crashing when i run my app on iOS6 Simulator with Xcode 4.5 GM Seed:
if ([[[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion] isEqualToString:@"6.0"]) {
    XLog(@"hier checken");
    self.tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
    self.window.rootViewController = self.tabBarController;
    [self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
self.loginController = [[[LoginController alloc] initWithNibName:@"LoginController_iPhone" bundle:nil] autorelease];
self.loginController.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleCrossDissolve;
//this line occurs a crash on iOS 6 (simulator, device not tested)
[self.tabBarController presentViewController:self.loginController
                                        animated:YES
                                      completion:nil];
The crash is a SIGABRT. no more information about the crash.
what is occuring this crash on iOS6?

Update on playback problems with AIR 3.5 on desktop

Adobe has received reports that desktop AIR 3.5 users of BBC iPlayer and Digital Theatre Desktop Player are no longer able to play or download video after upgrading from AIR 3.4 or earlier. Specifically, the user will attempt to play the video and will get a black video window or will fail to successfully download videos. Adobe is working on a permanent resolution for the issue in AIR 3.5. In parallel, Adobe is working closely with the BBC and Digital Theatre to offer support and investigate interim resolutions. We will publish an update as soon as we have released the fix.
In the meantime, the work-around for affected users is to migrate back to AIR 3.4. The following link provides instructions for determining the version of AIR currently installed on your machine. If you believe you may be experiencing a video playback problem caused by migrating to AIR 3.5, your video service should be able to tell you whether they believe going back to AIR 3.4 or earlier will resolve the problem. If instructed to do so, the following steps here can help you uninstall your current version and locate and install a specific AIR version for installation on your Windows or Mac PC.
Please feel free to report your issue or reproducible steps here and we will alert you once a fix has been put in place. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your continued support.

Please note that I have followed the BBC's instructions to uninstall Air v3.5 and iPlayer Desktop and then install Air v3.4 and iPlayer Desktop, but contrary to what they and you say, this has made no difference - iPlayer still can't download programmes to iPlayer Desktop and it still can't find the programmes I had previously downloaded. I surmise that maybe uninstalling wasn't enough and that some fault remains that still prevents the programme from working. I am not an IT expert, so I would need more comprehensive instructions to fix this.
You may like to note that I downloaded Air v3.5 several days before iPlayer Desktop failed, and I am pretty sure that I used iPlayer Desktop in between times. After it failed, it was very reluctant to even open, let alone do anything when, after repeated instructions, it finally did open.
You may also like to note that I began to experience a ridiculous amount of buffering on radio playback straight from the BBC website before and after iPlayer Desktop failed. I don't think it can have been a broadband issue, as I could stream both TV and radio live and I could stream TV playback with no problem. Since reverting to Air v3.4, I have had no buffering. I doubt whether this is a coincidence.
I have an Acer 5745PG with Windows 7, Intel Core i3-350M, NVIDIA GeForce 310M and I use Firefox.
Don't you guys beta test stuff?

Why is my password still required for app updates on my iPhone with iOS6?

I've updated my iPhone 4S and my new iPad both to iOS6. Now when I try to install updates no password is required on the iPad, but my iPhone still pops up the password request window.
I've tried restarting the iPhone after the install but that didn't change anything. Is there a setting or anything else that I need to change on the phone in order to no longer need to enter my password every time I update apps?

I found this on another thread. I disabled restrictions on my iPhone and it no longer asked for my password. I have not tried re-enabling restrictions though to see if the problem reoccurs.

App Store crashing on launch after Mavericks update

Hi all. I upgraded to Mavericks about a week ago and haven't really been using my macbook pro since (its a late 2008 or 9 model, I don't remember). Anyways I have to use it now while my PC is being fixed and the app store crashes upon launching with what appears to be a similar crash log each time. I will attach the log in here somewhere. If there is a way to re-install the app store manually I might be able to fix it, otherwise I'm hoping you apple guys and gals can help me out. The app store is crucial as I'm sure you're all aware. Thanks in advanced.

Did the trick, many thanks to that user.

AIR App now crashes with AIR 15 runtime (did not crash with earlier versions of AIR)

Hi,
We've noticed our AIR application now crashes when the AIR 15 (the latest version available from Adobe) runtime is installed. This did not happen with earlier versions of AIR. The app does not crash when I debug in Flash Builder so I cannot identify the exact issue. The app will crash EVERY time when running the .exe on Windows. The crash happens on Windows XP and Windows 7. The app does not crash on OS X.
The message in Event Viewer says:
Faulting application name: PhotoMambo.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x4eb75ae0
Faulting module name: Adobe AIR.dll, version: 15.0.0.249, time stamp: 0x53fe5c69
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x0056fcdc

Report Id: 49c106e0-3d04-11e4-9219-001c42d9a43e
Please let me know if you'd like any additional information. This is such a bummer that an AIR update renders our app useless in Windows.
Thank you.

I'm sorry this is happening. Could you please open a new bug report on this over at bugbase.adobe.com? When adding the bug, please include sample code or an application so we can quickly test this out internally.

I have just updated my iphone 4s with ios7. since then i cant play movies from my netflix app with my av cable bought from the apple store. i get a message saying switch off mirroring on airplay, idont have air play and i dont have an apple tv. can anyone

I have just updated my iphone 4s with ios7. Since then i cannot play movies from my netflix app using my av cable to tv. which i baught from an apple store. i get a message saying turn off mirroring on airplay. i dont have airplay or an apple TV. what can i do?
Thanks jonmac22

Hi Everyone,
hope this message finds you all in time. The recent Apple TV update 5.1 is terrible. Apple knows it is which is why (thankfully for some relentless user -I have no idea who but I believe it was under threat) they have allowed to sign 5.0.2 again which means you can downgrade your Apple TV 2 and 3 to a 5.0.2 version via iTunes. Who knows how long they will keep the window open but I have downgraded my ATV early this morning. I couldn't post this earlier because I was out all day but I am doing it now.
Here's how to do it:
1) Connect your ATV to your computer via a Mini USB (not included with ATV but included with many other electronic devices) - in order for your ATV to appear in iTunes you must FIRST plug the USB cable to your computer and ATV and only THEN plug the power cable.
2) Download your ipsw restore file from Apple.
5.0.2 (ATV 2): AppleTV2,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw
5.0.2 (ATV 3): AppleTV3,1_5.0.2_9B830_Restore.ipsw
3) In iTunes select yout ATV, hold SHIFT and click on Restore
4) Find and choose the downloaded IPSW file in the Open Dialog Box and hit Next
5) As long as Apple still signs that version the Restore process will begin and will take a few minutes to complete.
Enjoy!
