CS5 and Adobe AIR issue wih Help file

Photoshop and other CS5 apps; Mac Pro OS 10.6.5 -- everything up to date.  Trying to use Help, Adobe AIR says installation is damaged.  It apparently means the Help file, as AIR updates and installs OK.  Same configuration on my Macbook Pro and Help works there.  I copied the Help file from the laptop but still get the message.
So I'm trying to re-install the Help file -- I found the download but when I run it, it says the installer file is damaged.  Where do I find that to download?
Thanks!

Hi Diane,
Sorry for the trouble you are having, and thanks for letting us know. The steps below should get you up and running (and update you to the latest Community Help AIR app which has some new features and improved functionality.
Uninstall the previous version of  Adobe Help by removing and trashing the application from the Applications > Adobe  folder
Delete the following directory:  /Users/username/Library/Preferences/chc.4875E02D9FB21EE389F73B8D1702B320485DF8CE.1
IMPORTANT:  Empty the Trash or Recycling Band to ensure proper removal of all files
Manually update the application at: http://www.adobe.com/support/chc/
The above solution is also available as Technical Support document here:http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/842/cpsid_84215.html
I hope this helps,
Chris

  • Robohelp 9 Adobe Air Browser Based Help not rendering on IIS Server 7.5

    Hello everyone,
    I'm having an issue where the output (Adobe Air browser based help) is not rendering properly on the IIS Server 7.5 that it is published to.
    I have updated the icons in the skin, and when viewed locally the site works fine. When it is published to the webserver the new icons do not show up, and the banner does not render in the new color. The site is using the unipane adobe air browser based help template.
    I've had the dev team restart the webserver twice, and for some reason the flash object simply won't update.
    Anyone else see this before?
    Thanks,
    Jerry

    Hi Jerry
    If memory serves, Browser Based AIRHelp uses Flash elements like FlashHelp does. I recall a few years ago that FlashHelp had the same issues on some servers. Further, if memory serves, the fix was to ask your web server folks to tweak the server by adjusting the MIME types so it will properly serve Flash items.
    Adobe used to have a KB article on this. Unfortunately, time seems to have caused it to evaporate. Grrrrr
    Cheers... Rick

    Download the Fireworks updater from here:

    When you have downloaded and extracted the file right click and then click "run as Adminstrator".
    It should work for you. I had the same issue and did this and everything worked,

  • Flash Builder and Adobe AIR: anybody there?

    Hi,
    I've recently posted quite a few posts reporting very serious bugs of both Flash Builder 4.6 and Adobe AIR especially on mobile platforms, and asking about possible fixes and workarounds.
    I would have expected immediate replies by someone at Adobe showing some interest in such blocker bugs that render Flash Builder completely useless, and developing AIR apps for mobile impossible. But there was no reply at all.
    I wonder, are Flash Builder and Adobe AIR being maintained, or have they been abandoned? Because in the latter case I'd rather know it and stop wasting my time using this platform for development.
    thanks
    m.

    I feel your preoccupations, Matteo. I have them too.
    A few days ago, Gartner issued a document, called - as usual for Gartner - "magic quadrant", related to Mobile App Develpment 2012.
    This document explains the situation of the different vendors so one can make an educated choice about the IDE to use for platform-independent mobile things.
    Adobe is well-positioned in this quadrant. However, Gartner (who have talks with vendors before issueing their reports) only referred to PhoneGap when explaining how Adobe addresses mobile app development.
    This is a shame, because FB is powerful and uses ActionScript (which many of us like).
    I have bought FB last year and had fun with it. I don't think it's going to last for long, if I Adobe doesn't show that HTML5 + CSS aren't the only way to go.

  • Kind Chef mobile app, used Starling and Adobe AIR

    Hi everyone,
    Recently we were busily working on an idea called "KindChef" which is a system that helps restaurants and we as customers.
    We have started a campaign for it on Indiegogo site, which is a crowdfunding site backed by Google as some of you may have heard about it, so that we can find the ones who are interested in the idea and can back us and contribute to it to help us make it happen...
    here is the campaign link: http://igg.me/at/kindchef/x/5769968
    We have developed a MVP (Minimum viable product) mobile app for it, using Starling and Adobe AIR. But it's not the end product and is not so optimized yet. It's just a sample app to show how the system works, but yet so many other features will be added to it's release version as we have discussed on the campaign page.
    We're also going to develop a control panel for restaurants too to manage their restaurant better. we're also going to develop a desktop app for them using Adobe AIR.
    Honestly, there are two reasons why I am talking about it here:
    1) the  Web developer’s perks, which provides AS3 programmers with many useful designs and OOP code snippets that we have used while developing the project and can help you a lot on your projects.
    Also we are giving away all of the Adobe AIR Native Extensions that have been used inside of the project.
    2) the second reason is to spread the word. Because sharing a campaign is a really important thing as Indiegogo counts this as a positive point for the campaigns, so if you just share it you have helped us a lot in our way,  or you may also contribute to it
    Please visit the link above and find more information about it for yourself.
    The most important way that you can help us, is by sharing the campaign link with your friends.
    Please feel free to ask any questions about the whole idea and system or the app.
    Best,
    MyFlashlab team.

  • Adobe AIR Browser Based Help Edit Home Button URL

    I'm using the unipane template for my adobe air browser based help, and need to edit the URL that the home button uses. Currently, the home button will take me to a page displaying a table of contents structure instead of the default topic I use as the homepage.
    Is there a way to edit this url that the home button in the unipane template?
    Thank you,
    Jerry

    Not that I know of. I guess if you hacked the installed AIR help you might find a way of doing it but that hack would have to be done on every PC after installation. Obviously that is a non-starter.
    The more people who request a feature, the more likely it is to be actioned. Please follow this link.

  • Where can i find SCUP catalogue for Adobe Shockwaye player and Adobe Air

    Where can i find SCUP catalog for Adobe Shockwave player and Adobe Air.
    i need to upgrade Adobe Air 14.0 and Adobe Shockwave player 12.0.1.
    i want to import catalog through SCUP and then deploy it using SCCM 2012r2

    Why do you want 8?
    You would be better off with 9: http://download.cnet.com/Adobe-Reader/3000-10743_4-10000062.html?tag=mncol
    How much system RAM do you have? I bet if you upgraded your RAM you would not have the performance issues with 9.

    Hi Acacia_km,
    I believe you are only trying to install the fresh version of Creative Cloud Desktop application ? If yes, please navigate to the following location and perform the steps as mentioned .
    For Windows
    1) Navigate to : C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE
    2) Rename this folder to OOBE_old and try the installation of the Creative Cloud Desktop Application.
    For Mac
    1) Navigate to : /library/application support/Adobe/OOBE
    2)Rename this folder to OOBE_old and try the installation of the Creative Cloud Desktop Application.
    Do let us know if this works fine for you or if you require any further help regarding this.

  • Does updating Flash Player and Adobe Air solve the Swf.Exploit.CVE_2014_0581 problem?

    My ClamXav found the following attached to an app (JL Edwardian Advent Calendar) on my computer: Swf.Exploit.CVE_2014_0581. I have deleted and reinstalled the app, and I have updated the Flash Player and Adobe Air, but ClamXav continues to mark it as infected. Could this be a false positive? Is it safe to run this app after the updates?

    Added one yesterday:

    Interestingly air 3.7 on IOS to Desktop air 3.7 will work.
    I am investigating if I can use 3.7 on Android to connect to 3.7 on iOS - so far I cannot get the apk to install on my Galaxy S3, compile using 3.4 and all is good. Air runtime has been updated via Play store - and build uses compiled runtime.
    I cannot get Flash player 11.4 to connect with air 3.7 on iOS either.
    NetGroup.Neighbour.Connect never fires.
    All SDKS above 3.4 upto 3.8 beta exhibit the same problem.
    3.4 works perfectly and can connect to flash player, and other Air/iOS devices just fine.
    Shuld not be a issue with firewalls etc, thay are all open.
    I can email you the fla, it is for a product so I can't post it here.
    Thanks,
    Steve.

  • Adding gameCenter functionality with actionscript3 and Adobe AIR

    I am writing a game in actionscript3 and adobe AIR for the iphone4. Is there a way to connect to iphone's gameCenter in actionscript3, or is that not possible and I am forced to use xcode and objective-C?
    If this is not possible, are there any alternatives to gameCenter that I can program with actionscript3 and AIR? For example openFeint??
    Thanks

  • Flash Catalyst, Flash Builder and Adobe Air....Issues...

    My problem is simple.
    I have a flash catalyst project I importedc it into flash builder - whats the issue? its a web app. I need it as a air app. I don't know how to change it from a web app to an air app.
    Also:
    If I publish the "demo" version in Flash cat as a air app and install it, I have to resize the window? even when I set the bounds to be 800x600 it shows up on the desktop as either half that or sligtly larger. even running the swf - publishing for both web and air for testing - i have to resize the swf (unless its embeded on a page). why is this happening?
    Tha main purpose here is to change the imported flas cat proj into a air app in flash builder so i can change the default chrome.
    Thanks.

    I finally find what the problem was. It has nothing to do with either the server, neither Flash Player or Adobe Air.
    The problem came from mstc window (remote desktop software). By default it was set to display 16bit colors. I might have changed it sometime to 15bit.
    By setting it to 16bit, it solved the problem.
