Can't debug AIR app. No error, app just won't come up

Hi, my problem is described in title: when I try to debug AIR application it, flex says "[SWF] MyAppName.swf xxxxxxxx bytes after decompression", no errors are shown but the application won't come up. Where's the problem? Thanks

Well, when I set <visible> tag to true in -app.xml file it returns me this error:
Process terminated unexpectedly.
invalid application descriptor: Illegal value "<visible xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/2.6">true</visible>
<visible xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/2.6">false</visible>" for application/initialWindow/visible.

Last time I tried it, it didn't connect but before it did so I guess the problem isn't here

XCode 5.1 updated and now I can't debug AIR apps on iOS Simulator anymore

Today XCode updated itself to version 5.1, with new iOS 7.1 platform support. It updated itself without asking permission, and now I can't run my AIR apps on the iOS simulator anymore. All my apps fail with the following error:
'Launching [myApplication]' has encountered a problem.
Error occurred while installing the application:

I use AIR SDK 4.0.1628 (the latest version according to the SDK download page today), and it doesn't make a difference if I choose another simulator version (7.0 and 6.1 fail the same way).
I'm developing in Flash Builder 4.7, on OS X 10.9.2
Any ideas of how to fix this? Will using the AIR 13 beta help?
Thanks, Frank

Thanks for the steer Jason that worked,
So that would be Apache Flex 4.12 using Flex installer 2.7 will bring the same benefits of AIR SDK for Flex 13...... I basically have to use an installer from a third party to make the commercial product I pay for work to solve the precise problem its sold as solving.
It's like buying a *******' drill you have to put together yourself.
I'm gonna get this build finished, then sneak into Flash Builders room while it's having a sleep after a big dinner and smother it with a pillow. It's the kindest thing to do. Ha!
@DavidDragon,
Follow these steps:
http://flex.apache.org/doc-getstarted.html
However just make sure you use the latest version [4.12.0]

Flash Builder 4.7 won't debug air app on Android devices anymore

Hi there,
A strange thing happened today to my Flash Builer 4.7 installation on OS 10.8.5 : it suddenly refused installing and debugging AIR apps.
At -the famous- 57% of compilation completion I can see the "installing app on device" message, but nothing happens then, and the one minute connection to app timeout is finally triggered.
I had a look at other threads dealing with this problem here http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1154269 and here http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/02/12/new-android-4-2-2-feature-usb-debug-whitelist-prev ents-adb-savvy-thieves-from-stealing-your-data-in-some-situations/ and I downloaded the latets Android SDK and replaced a bunch of files into the /Applications/Adobe Flash Builder 4.6/sdks/4.6.0/lib/android/bin folder but nothing worked.
The fun side of the issue is that yesterday it worked, and this morning it did not worked anymore, but I swear I did not ugraded Android on my phone nor I upgraded AIR SDK in FLash Builder or OS X. The Android phone is the same as usual, a Nexus 4 with Android 4.3, that I upgraded 1 month ago.
I can't debug my Android app anymore, this drives me crazy, and I spent the day trying to find a solution.
Do you guys had a similar problem ?

My mistake...
There was a typo into the XML application descriptor, that prevented the app to install properly on the device.
Precisely, it wasn't a typo but raher a malformed <intent-filter> node. I launched adb tool from the console with adb install MyApp.apk command, and I saw this : Failure [INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_MANIFEST_MALFORMED] in the terminal. From here it was easy to find the culprit.
What would be cool is to have this feature inside the Flash Builder's Console panel.

Is it a new account ? If it is then unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store - you should be able to remove your card details after entering them

Did you try to reset your iPod? The description of what yu did was not clear. To reset:
Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
Next would be to restore the iPod from backup and if problem persists restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

New (3mo) macbook air screen goes black and sometimes won't come back on after I unplug it from the power cord. Any ideas why it is doing this? Sometimes I have to hold power button for 10 seconds for it to shut off then back on.

New (3mo) macbook air screen goes black and sometimes won't come back on after I unplug it from the power cord. Any ideas why it is doing this? Sometimes I have to hold power button for 10 seconds for it to shut off then back on. Sometimes holding the power button for a second is enough for it to come back on.

I took it to the Genius Bar, and they identified it as a hardware issue. Just got it back today. Parts replaced were:
620-5629 Display Module — Symptom: Distored/blurred/focus video issue
605-3284 Top Case with Keyboard — Symptom: specific key(s) do not work
So far so good. I'd suggest taking it in and not trying to work around it — it's a rare hardware issue (given the number of threads about it) and should be replaced.

Adl quits unexpectedly - while debugging AIR app in Flash Builder 4.5

the crash scenario:
     - i'm debugging an AIR app, things are running fine
     - my app is a media rotator and i've set it up to load in images, videos, sounds, and swfs (all good no problems there)
     - the original was built for AIR 2.6 and used the old halo components
      - however, now that i've done the conversions, targeted all spark and mx, and also setup my new AIR 3 SDK (following these instructions http://jeffwinder.blogspot.com/2011/09/installing-adobe-air-3-sdk-in-flash.html)
       when I go from loading a BitmapImage to loading a VideoDisplay element, the adl debugger simply crashes w/ 'adl quit unexpectedly' msg and a massive crash report.
     - it never did this in AIR 2.6 and Flex 4.0 SDK
     - i can load videos in sequence no problem, but the error only occurs when going from bitmap to video.
Any ideas? It's frustrating because after the crash there's not even an error message in the Console.
Also, is this really the best practice Adobe approved way of targeting AIR 3?

For example in the runtimes\player\win folder I would suggest downloading and renaming...
1. http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/updaters/11/flashplayer_11_ax_debug_32bit .exe ===> FlashPlayerDebugger.exe
2. http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/updaters/11/flashplayer_11_plugin_debug_3 2bit.exe ===> InstallPlugin.exe
3. http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/updaters/11/flashplayer_11_ax_debug_32bit .exe   ===> InstallAX.exe

Can't install air app generated from Flex

Hi, I have just installed the new Flex Builder 3 on my
Windows Vista Home Premium. One of the first thins I did was to
create a very simple air project (one centered button only). I
inmediately exported it as an *.air file to my desktop to see it
run! but it fails!!! Every time I run it, just after display
"Getting ready to install this application" this error ocurs:
Sorry, an error has ocurred. "The application could not be
installed because the AIR file is damaged. Try obtaining a new AIR
file from the application author."
By the way, I installed the last air runtime from the net and
installed and run perfectly well some air apps downloaded from the
net.
Any ideas?
Leonardo

Hi,
I don't have an answer for your question but i think you can answer to my question, so i am using flex builder for my application and i need to test the creation of a folder on my desktop this can't be possible with a browser based application but it is possible with air application, but i don't know how to test an application or how to create an air application with Flex Builder, can you tell me if i have to install something other or to configure flex builder to do this?
Thanks

Flex 3.3 can't launch AIR apps on Mac

When using the 3.3 SDK if I try to debug an application I get
this error:
Process terminated without establishing connection to
debugger.
If the program is already running, close it before attempting
to debug.
I have tried all manner of restarting down to my full system.
Flex/Flash Player works fine, its just launching AIR. If I try to
run the AIR app (rather than debug) nothing happens at all --
nothing launches, no errors, nothing.
I'm using a MacBook Pro, Intel Core2Duo, OSX 10.5. The
problem has been replicated on a coworkers' Mac as well. I haven't
tested on Windows.

Can individual Adobe Air apps be installed without local admin permission into a user-owned folder?

Is this a supported scenario?
Windows 7 PC.
Adobe Air runtime (latest; 4.0) has been installed by an administrator using a local admin account and the eulaAccepted file is present under the "All Users" profile.
User logs in using her own account which does not have local admin rights.
User downloads an Air app and tries to install it to C:\Users\<username> where she has full write permissions to the disk.
What I observe when acting as the User is that the Windows UAC (security escalation to local admin rights) dialog pops up. Can anyone clearly state what the Adobe Air installer is doing that requires the UAC escalation when installing an app to a user's folder? Thanks.

Thanks for your reply, Chris. We're working around these problems by deploying the Air runtime + the application separately using an administration tool, which is fine for now.
I logged the question because I don't see any registry edits or privileged folder access taking place. I suspect that the UAC escalation has something to do with the "eulaAccepted" file; checking that it exists. I doubt that escalated permissions are really required for this. In the long term, it'd be good if this "use case" could be added to the test cycle of Air; perhaps the UAC dialog could be avoided, improving the flexibility of deployment options.
Ideally the test would start with an adminstrator-installed Air package *without* the EULA being accepted. The user should be able to install apps and approve the EULA without the UAC dialog popping up at all.

Still Can't Debug AIR 1.5 Applications

Is there even an official support channel? I've been out of
commission since Monday with this, and can't find a viable solution
to my problem. AIR applications simply REFUSE to debug.
A brand new Air 1.5 application debugs consistently on the
first launch, but then fails on subsequent launches. The debugger
process starts, but the swf never gets loaded and it just hangs
there forever. I'm so screwed at this point.

Thinking maybe it is something regarding my system
configuration I installed a clean OS on my box. Same problem, no
debug. Can run ADL from the command line, and launch the
applications with ADL from FB3, but can't debug (console output,
break points) in FB3.

Can't forward emails; contacts are in icloud and won't come up when I push cc

I can't forward email in Outlook. I used to just forward to myself then use cc to forward to other contacts that would come up when I pushed cc. Now everything has been moved to icloud and it won't come up to cc anyone. My iphone broke so they sent me a refurbished on and since I since I backed up my old phone and installed the sim card into the new one I have had nothing but issues...this being the worst. Another issue is that since then all the songs I had on my old phone are not there anymore. The nearest Apple store is 250 miles from me. Not sure Apple and icloud is the way to go. Does anyone know what is going on with this???

Outlook 2013 isn't supported at this time. Outlook 2007 and 2010 are. Microsoft has not yet decided to make 2013 compatible.
