Digital publishing with CS5 vs adobe air

i went to an indd user group meeting in nyc last night and the subject was using CS5 to create magazines for the ipad. as a strictly print kinda girl i'm anxious and interested in how this is all gonna work. they mentioned adobe air at one point and i looked it up (i told you, i'm a print girl) and i'm wondering what the differences are in air and .issue. in other words, after reading a very little bit about Air it looks like it does what indesign is doing for the ipad. i know not much about either so could someone explain the differences, why one is better than the other and when one would be used preferably over the other?
thank you!
mary

it was very interesting. just the number of people and the amount of anxiety in the room was interesting in and of itself.
what struck me, since i'm not in magazine publishing, is that this could, theoretically, replace traditional printing. why limit it to magazines? imagine direct mail and catalogues, brochures, being done this way and sent via email (altho on the other hand don't we have all that capability on the internet?) and once this is available on desktop macs and monitors, imagine the effect on events, is the technology there for a 15' long interactive media wall? but anyway, back to my original question, we outsource content here to another studio that uses Air to create touchscreens for tradeshow booths. so i've heard of Air but never used it. how does Air work? why would i use it if i could do everything in indd CS5? the one thing that did seem like an advantage, from what i read, was that Air didn't require a browser or application, it created a standalone app so that would seem like it would be device independent as well. can they be read on a plasma, a phone, an ipad?
i guess what i'm really wondering is if i'm going to invest the time to learn how to make .issue files and then find Air is the way to go. has anyone not been scarred by the betamax/vhs experience? if you have, you know my fear. : )

Problem with installation of Adobe Air 2.6

Hi,
I've got a problem with installation of Adobe Air 2.6 under Mageia 2 Linux. The installation stops with an error. Here's the install.log:

How can I solve this problem? Thanks in advance for help.

I'm not certain that Mageia 2 Linux is supported. This Release Notes page and this Install Help page don't mention Mageia, just
Fedora Core 12, Ubuntu 9.10, OpenSUSE 11.2.

Installing Photoshop CS5 requires Adobe AIR to be installed

Hey Guys (I'm new so sorry if I do anything wrong here),
I just installed Windows 8, and while it was very confusing I accidently deleted all of my programmes (I got confused with what the Reset Tab was) and when I went to go and install Photoshop Trial, it's telling me I need to update Adobe AIR because It's not available to my system.
I've installed it before, the only change was from Windows 7 to Windows 8, and I've seen other people with Windows 8 use Photoshop CS5? Please Help!?
Message title was edited by: Brett N

No No, Sorry aha I installed Windows 8, which was fine. I didnt like it much so I tried doing a system restore assuming I could just go back to Windows 7 (What my friend told me). I found out eventually I couldnt obviously, but before I found out I figured the "Reset Your PC" option would be like a system restore and would go back to Windows 7. All my Programmes got deleted, which I was fine about so I just went to go install them again but Photoshop is telling me I cant install it due to not having the system requirements. But the only requirement I believe I dont have is Windows 7, but like I said before... I've seen others with Windows 8 having Photoshop..
A system Image Backup, nope.. I dont. My friend told me that it was just a trial and I would go back to Windows 7 once the trial is up. (I should do my own research in future)
I hope this was clear enough, again it's pretty late and I'm just stressed over loosing everything. Thank you for getting back to me so soon also - Any other tips on how to maybe get it? I dont think I have any traces of Adobe left since all my programmes got deleted, the only other thing I have is Adobe Flash.

I think it would be better to delete this video and do it all over again in a more fluent way. The guys on stage are hard to follow (low volume), they never heard of "Reflection" (a simple app to put the iPad's screen on the big presentation display through AirPlay), and the previewing is cumbersome (could be up and running within 2 seconds in stead of 5 minutes).

Dreamweaver CS5.5 Adobe AIR Interface Still Generates 2.0 Namespace

Hello Dreamweaver Team,
I'm using Dreamweaver CS5.5 for Adobe AIR development using HTML/Javascript. I noticed that up to now, the Adobe AIR interface (AIR Application Settings... on the Site menu) still generates an 'application.xml' file with the 2.0 application namespace.
This is most likely because the "Adobe AIR Extension for Dreamweaver" I'm using (which is the latest available from Adobe) is not yet updated by Adobe for Adobe AIR 3.0.
When will the Dreamweaver Development Team release the Adobe AIR 3.0 Extension for Dreamweaver? Any ETA?
Thanks!
Oscar

Hi Patrick,
Nope. I haven't gone that deep into the Dreamweaver or AIR internals to know how to do that.
I simply manually edit the application xml file to change the version number to 3.0 before building the AIR file.
Best,
Oscar

Hi. It looks like your code is not finding the mp3. At least,
I can reproduce your error code by removing the mp3 from the
directory, or renaming it.
Btw, if you test with FF instead of IE, you'd see the error:
Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2032:
Stream Error.

Hope that helps.

Problem with installing/uninstalling Adobe AIR on Windows 7 x64

I encounter problem while trying to do anything with AIR. I cannot uninstall Adobe AIR using default uninstaller or install any AIR software because the message "This application requires a version of Adobe AIR which cannot be found" is popping up.
I tried to remove Adobe AIR with Revo Uninstaller and installing the AIR again but it didn't help. Revo Uninstaller removes all files and registry entries successfuly. After such reinstalation of Adobe AIR all the files in c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe AIR seems healthy and registry entries are added as well.
I tried Microsoft Install and Uninstall Fix It tool, Windows Install Clean Up - didn't work.
My whole log is below, I did a couple of trial today (2013-02-08).

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

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

Create a scrolling frame that slides in and out of a page, revealing more information when the reader pulls on a tab. This is useful when you want to provide a little more information for your reader, but you don't want it to interrupt the full design of the page.Download Bob Bringhurst's Tips App to read a tutorial on scrolling frames: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/digital-publishing-suite-tips/id436199090?mt =8

Actually the original message was meant for Colin not Bob
I did find the answer to my own question... The Video Is OUTDATED and should be removed to avoid future confusion.
The new feature is "Scrollable Frame", located on the bottom of the Folio Overlay panel which allows for an effective slide out tray.
Colin's more recent video covers this.

Colin if you do read this— thanks for producing some fantastic tutorials and being so supportive.

Importing Existing Documents into Digital Publishing With InDesign

Hi - I have several hundred pages in the inDesign format that I would like to use to build a digital magazine using Adobe's new Digital Publishing Suite.
How can I import 8.5x11 pages into a 1024x768 page? I have hundreds of pages and need them in the smaller iPad screen format. Its easy when you start from scratch....you just create a 1024x768 document. But how do you start using the Digital Publishing platform when you have existing work?
Thanks!

Try using Layout Adjustment. I think you're better off asking in the General forum unless there is a clear scripting aspect to your question. If there is, please try to make it more clear.

Ad of the Week - mashup video | Digital Publishing Suite Customer Showcase | Adobe TV

Instead of an ad of the week video, the DPS team has created a mashup of many great ads built using Digital Publishing Suite. Interactive ads built in Digital Publishing Suite allow readers to play, learn, and shop, deepening brand engagement and purchase intention.

These are awesome examples. But aren't they all created using HTML5? I didn't catch any that are native DPS.

Problem with Expose and Adobe AIR application -can't click on app in Expose

I just installed a new Adobe AIR application called TwitterLocal. The app was working fine until I accidently hit some keyboard shortcut and the application window disappeared. I figured I accidently assigned the window to some other "space," however I do not have SPACES turned on. Furthermore, when I select EXPOSE, I can now see the content of the application's window, however if I click on the app (which takes on that grey-highlight appearance when you mouse over it) the desktop returns to its normal position. I can see via the top status bar that the app is currently selected, but I cannot access the app window.
Is there any way to send an app that was "sent" to expose back to the normal desktop? I've tried rebooting and even uninstalling/reinstalling the app but it is still lost in expose.
Any thoughts on this would greatly be appreciated.

Solution was to change display to lower resolution, then the Adobe AIR app TwitterLocal became visible on the standard desktop and I was able to click on and move the app window towards the left of the desktop. Once I switched the resolution back, everything was ok.
