BUG - saving with both flash pro CS6 and CC causes library symbol names to change

Concise problem statement:
If you save with flash pro CC and then save with CS6, in the library panel, symbol names are changed.
Specifically, pipes | and trailing spaces ("|Divider", "Divider ") get replaced by escape sequences ("&#124Divider", "Divider&#032" ...) Ampersands & and number signs # also get replaced, such that symbol names grow exponentially if you continue to save with both flash pro CC and CS6 ("Divider&#032", "Divider&#038&#035032", "Divider&#038&#035038&#038&#035035032" ...) This makes it difficult to transition a team from CS6 to CC.
Sometimes, the original-name symbol remains, and an escaped-name symbol is also created. In this case, the children are removed from the original-name symbol, so it doesn't render anything to the screen; a mysterious, silent failure.
Steps to reproduce bug:
1. Create a library symbol named "|", save an xfl with flash pro CC, and close.
2. Open, save, and close with flash pro CS6.
3. Open, save, and close with flash pro CC.
Results:
A library symbol named "&#124".
Expected results:
A library symbol named "|".
I submitted this bug with the bug form, and also with adobe bugbase (in case it isn't obsolete) - I'm just trying to maximize my chances of getting a fix. Has anyone else encountered this bug?

Hi,
We are aware of this issue and its open for investigation internally. This issue is observed when you have certain special characters in your symbol names and try to open that file in Flash CS6. This happens due to a change in the way symbol naming is handled in Flash CC and in Flash CS 6.
As a workaround, request you to use only Underscore or Hyphen as special characters while naming symbols or library layers etc.
We shall update you as soon as this has been fixed.
Thanks,
Nipun

Newest Video Cards for use with both Premiere Pro CS6 and CS4

Hi, I am currently using PPCS4 and just upgraded to PPCS6. On one system I'm running a GTX 285 and on the other Quadro 2000. Can you tell me which new graphics card in each catagory will be able to run both CS6 and CS4 as I have many programs still setup in CS4? I tried tech sipport with no answer from them. I looked over GTX 570 or 580 for one system and Quadro 4000 for the other but I still have reservations if there will be a problem or not with CS4. Can you help me. I'm running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit, both systems are running Intel core i7's, one with 24gb ram and the other with 16gb ram. Thanks

CS4 does not really use any advanced features of any card... so a relatively inexpensive AMD/ATI card will do anything a more expensive card will do... for CS4
Starting with CS5 (a complete rewrite of the source code, to go from 32bit to 64bit, plus a LOT of other changes) an nVidia card helps with some actions
http://blogs.adobe.com/premiereprotraining/2011/02/red-yellow-and-green-render-bars.html
For a list of supported nVidia CUDA cards go to the CUDA help page - http://forums.adobe.com/thread/773101
For many others, with at least 1Gig of video ram, use the nVidia Hack http://forums.adobe.com/thread/629557 - which is a simple entry in a "supported cards" file
Which nVidia card you buy will be a combination of 2 factors... how much $$ you want to spend for a given speed level (number of Cuda cores) and the size of your power supply to drive the card

Flash Pro CS6 - consistent crash - duplicating library symbol

This is similar to a bug reported for CS5.5, then fixed in the update.
Every time I duplicate certain library symbols, flash crashes consistently.
Someone from Adobe can contact me, and I will send source files for test.
Filippo

It's the same issue as this one:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5793195#5793195
This has been fixed in Flash CC with the 13.1 update. In case you're working on a previous version, make sure to keep all your font items in the library root (not within any folder) to avoid this crash.

Issue with debugging Flash Pro CS6

I have a project I am working on that was created in CS5.5 targeting iOS. The SWF has a lot of content, but no code and the .AS file has all the code except for a few utility functions. I just updated to CS6 and now debugging no longer works as expected. When I run the app in Debug - whether using the mobile or desktop Air debugger environments, it fails to recognize the .AS file as having executable code in it. In CS5.5, when I did this, the AS file would open and I could set and clear breakpoints. Now, if I go to the file and try to toggle a breakpoint, it shows "No exectuable code..." no matter where I set the breakpoint. The app is running fine, but it acts like there is no link between the source file and the app.
The app builds and runs fine - I just can't debug it. Help!
I am sure this is some stupid little thing I haven't done, but since I changed nothing between CS5.5 and CS6, I have no idea where to look.

You might get better results if you post in the Flash General forum. Sometimes when new versions are presenting problems some Adobe folks will visit there to see if they can help....

Flash Pro CS6 and Adobe AIR (and Android APK)

I have a compiled SWF that I can't convert to a newer ActionScript 3.0 format. Anything that I try breaks the file. It is basically just an animation with a tad bit of code on the Movie Clips. I can't seem to identify the culprit that causes the newer files to generate with errors so I have decided to use the load method to load the ActionScript 1/2 format into an AS 3.0 container. This still does not work for generating APK's directly.
However when I generate a desktop AIR file it plays just fine.
Is there a way to take the AIR file and convert it to an APK using the command line? I have heard of using adt on the command line but most posts speak of converting SWF's directly. I would like to try it with the already-compiled AIR file. If I use the SWF I might as well compile that into a non-functioning APK directly from Flash. That's not what I'm looking to do.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi kglad,
Yes I have the original FLA.
I think you're right, working with it to convert it to AS3 would be optimal. Unfortunately it is not such an easy task because I tried that route already and I thought I had a good file but in the Android APK it still played back strangely. With the desktop AIR I didn't have any problems after using the original FLA to reauthor the SWF movie.
I also find it strange that when I try to import the SWF into a version of Flash below CC it does not import properly. I guess at runtime it takes some of the ActionScript commands into account but at import-time to get it into the Library or on Stage it throws the AS out the window.
Best,

Is there any reason I need both premiere pro cs6 and premiere pro cc on my computer?

any suggestions would be great. Thanks!

I'd also recommend keeping Premiere CS 6 around until all the "legacy" projects you're working on are well and trully finished. Unless you like that feeling of uncontrolled panic, I would recommend *NOT* porting a bunch of "in progress" work over to Premiere CC!
I've got one, rather complicated project, that I'm working on and I think CC will make it easier but, rather than risk all the work I've already done in CS6, I've copied the whole thing over to an external drive and renamed the project so I can always, easily, go back if CC gives me trouble

Flash Pro CS6 and IOS AIR

When publishing a SWF using IOS AIr it ask for a certificate must be selected. What does this mean?
Thanks,
Joe

it means you must have a certificate and a provisioning profile if you want to publish an app to install on an iDevice. go to https://developer.apple.com/ and read.
if you're just goofing and you want to install on a jail-broken device, you can probably find a certificate and provisioning profile that lets you install without paying apple

Lag in AS Editor, Flash Pro CS6

I'm using Flash Pro CS6, and experiencing some major lag while typing in the AS editor (also in the Actions panel). There's anywhere from 0.5 - 3secs of lag between pressing a key and having the character appear on-screen, a major pain when trying to type quickly or holding down backspace.
Anyone know a solution? I've tried restarting, reinstalling, and running in compatibility mode for Win XP SP2, with no luck.
My system is an ASUS laptop, Win 7 64-bit, 256gb SSD, 16gb RAM, i7 CPU, and it's pretty new - no reason it should lag, and it runs high-intensity games fine. Also running Flash Pro CS6 12.0.2.529. I'm using AS3.
Thanks!

Some Laptops have troble with the new Adobe Flash Professional CS6. if it dose not stop laging you might want to think about getting a good tower. or it could be that you have to meny things installed on your laptop and it using up all of your resorces, and you may just need to uninstall some other programes and then it might work.
ps. if this was helpful plz click that it was.

Back button doesn't work in Flash Pro CS6 Simulator (ADL)

Hi everyone. I'm testing Flash Pro CS6, and I've noticed the Back button is not detected in my Android app when testing in ADL (Control / Test movie / In ADL Mobile).
When I try to select the option Device / Back (Ctrl+B) in ADL, it just doesn't do anything (I have a KEY_DOWN event listener which looks for the keycode Keyboard.BACK). In a real Android device, it works, but not in the "test movie" window (ADL). In CS5.5, the Back button always worked in ADL.
Also, in the new Simulator window which comes up when "testing movie", there are "Menu", "Back" and "Search" buttons for easier access. Well, that Back button doesn't do anything, either.
Does anyone know what's happening?
BTW, I don't find the "Simulator" window too useful for my purposes. How can I disable it, so it doesn't automatically come up?
Thanks!
Edit: Well, it seems the KEY_DOWN event listener doesn't work for any key, not only the Back button.

WHOWWW...
suitable for Flash Player 11.6
Back that down to as low a version as possible... 10 or so if possible.
My advice.... never... ever target the latest version of plugin... most users will NOT have that plugin installed.
Back it down and if that doesn't work, post a link to the actual Web page.
Best wishes,

Android file size limitation? (Flash Pro CS6)

Cross posted in the Air forum.
How can I package an Android app that is over the 50mb limit using Flash Pro CS6 and Air? Google now allows for additional content to be downloaded separately ...

How do I get someone to activate my Flash pro cs6 after I properly deactivated it and now it won't reactivate. I need a phone number or email address or something.

I may need to reformat my computer soon. It has been acting badly. So, in accordance with instructions I have gotten from FLASH I deactivated Flash Pro CS6 before I turned off my computer to save myself a problem if the computer died before I deactivated FLASH. Now, when I get back into FLASH PRO CS6 the "deactivate" button is grayed. Who do I talk to about this and how do I contact them?

Flash Pro CS6 compatibility with Win 8

Any news on this matter. I've got a full CC installation on a win 7 home laptop, and would like to upgrade it to Win 8 (using the new Win Pro upgrade dvd), what impact am i going to expect, licensing problems or perhaps complete breakdown of the Cloud!

It appears from this Adobe support list http://www.adobe.com/support/OScompatibility.html that Flash Pro CS6 is not yet compatible with Windows 8.
Have moved this post to the Flash Pro forum where someone can confirm this.

Flash Pro CS6, JSFL, and SpriteSheetExporter.exportSpriteSheet()

Hi, I've been trying to use SpriteSheetExporter.exportSpriteSheet() but it just reports the following error: "Argument number 1 is invalid"
The documentation says to pass a (file) path for the first argument. I've tried to pass both a platform path and a URI to a file to the method without success.
The documentation seems to need some clean up too:

Same problem here. Mac OS X 10.8.2, Flash Pro CS6 12.0.2.529.

var document = fl.getDocumentDOM();var timeline = document.getTimeline();var fileName = document.name.replace(/\.[^\.]+$/, '');var fileDir = document.path.replace(/[\/\\][^\/\\]+$/, ''); var item = document.library.getSelectedItems()[0];var spriteName = item.timeline.name;var exportDir = FLfile.platformPathToURI(fileDir); //+'/../../app/data/scenes'); var format = {format:"png", bitDepth:32, backgroundColor:"#00000000"};var writemeta = false; var sse = new SpriteSheetExporter();sse.addSymbol(item);sse.layoutFormat = "easeljs"; var path = spriteName +'.png';path = exportDir +'/'+ path;//path = FLfile.uriToPlatformPath(path); fl.trace('export '+ item +' using '+ sse +' to '+ path);var result = sse.exportSpriteSheet(null, format, writemeta);fl.trace('result: '+ result);
