Does Adobe Air support Mac OS X?

When I try to run Adobe.com on Adobe Air (or another Air
application, for that matter), the application crashes. I am
running Mac OS 10.5.6.
I was initially able to run Air applications. But as of last
week or so, I cannot.

Hello All,
I had Adobe Air installed with three applications: Zinio, Mindomo & Prezi. Everything was working fine. I upgraded my Mac OS X leopard to Snow Leopard. Zinio asked to be upgraded to 4.0 and upon upgrading the app I was asked to upgrade to Adobe Air 2.5.1. After upgrades I receive the following error when I try to run any of the applications : "This application requires a version of Adobe AIR which cannot be found. Please download the latest version of the runtime from http://www.adobe.com/go/getair, or contact the application author for an updated version." followed by a crash, here is the crash report: http://www.box.net/shared/b003opfbmo
I have tried the above steps, including uninstalling the applications, adobe air, running the terminals commands and then installing all again. Can anyone help?
P.S. the same reproduces on another administrative account on the same machine.

Does Adobe CreatePDF support Mac System 10 Leopard OS?

Does Adobe CreatePDF support Mac System 10 Leopard OS?

Good day,
Adobe CreatePDF is a web-based service. All you need is an internet connection, a modern browser and Flash Player installed. You can see the full system requirements here: http://www.adobe.com/acom/systemreqs/
Note - The CreatePDF desktop printer, which is an optional install for CreatePDF is a Windows-only feature.
Please let us know if you have any questions.
Kind regards,

Excessive connection latency... Does Adobe Air support connection pooling on mobile?

Hello,
I am developing a mobile app which loads thumbnail images from a remote server. During testing on the Android platform, however, I have discovered that images are very slow to load. By monitoring server logs I have determined that the poor performance is caused by the lack of connection pooling, meaning that each request builds a new connection. Running the sample code below on a mobile device produces 20 requests and 20 connection attempts. By comparison, the same web or desktop app creates 2 connections and reuses those connections for subsequent requests. The substantial overhead and latency associated with generating new connections has a substantial affect on performance, with 20 thumbnails taking approximately 4-5 seconds to load on mobile versus 0.5 - 1 second on a desktop.
I have included a sample app below to emphasis the performance issue. The image itself is very small (290 bytes) to focus the issue on connection latency. I have confirmed this behavior on numerous Android devices, running 4.1, 4.0, and 2.3. I have also attempted using Loader v. URLLoader v. URLStream and sequential v. simultaneous loading with no change in connection behavior. Attempting to set the connection to 'keep-alive' in the URLRequest also has no affect.

                              for (var i:int = 0; i < 20; i++) {
                                        loader = this.addChild(new Loader()) as Loader;
                                        loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, complete);
                                        loader.load(new URLRequest(url));
                    private function complete(event:Event):void
                              _count++
                              trace("Finished " + _count + " at " + getTimer() + " ms");
So, I have a couple questions:
1) Is there something that I can do to enable connection reuse?
2) Is this an inherent limitation with Adobe Air for mobile?
3) Can someone confirm whether this limitation exists on other mobile platforms (iOS or Blackberry)?
Any help that you can provide would be greatly appreciated. I am really hoping that this isn't a fundamental limitation of Adobe Air as it causes my app to feel very sluggish.
Thanks,
Adam

Hmm. You were absolutely correct, that's a bit disappointing!

Both are on release compile, which should take out all of the variability. So, yes, it looks as if the 3.4 AIR runtime has lost the connection pooling but ONLY for Android.

Does Adobe Air support mixing 14 audio tracks with different timings with no latency?

We are looking to port our iPhone application to Adobe Air and wanted to see if this is even feasible
See an app demo here: http://vimeo.com/5737825

What platforms? On Android there is or was a bug with audio latency that would interfere with your goals. The bug is in the Android OS IIRC. If you want to contact me offlist I can put together an AIR project to test mixing as many tracks as you'd like and include buttons to trigger them (source included).

Does Adobe AIR for Android support C2DM?

for more information on C2DM see:

It isn't supported right now. It should be supportable (you will have to write native code) in an upcoming release. Same for iOS/Android notifications.

Problems with BBC iPlayer Desktop and Adobe Air for Mac

I would be grateful for anyone who can help me with a problem I have on my Laptop running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3.I am having difficulty running BBC iPlayer Desktop and I suspect it is caused by Adobe Air.
Recently I was prompted to update Adobe Air to the latest version (as of February 2012) and after I successfully updated the program, this began to cause problems when I used BBC iPlayer desktop.
The first problem I noticed was that I was unable to play any downloaded programmes in full screen - only the sound played, not the video.
Secondly, a few weeks after this problem began, all my TV programmes mysteriously disappeared.
My final problem is that everytime I launch BBC iPlayer it is unable to download new programmes - when I am connected to the internet, the application still says it is "offline".
I have tried to resolve the problem by restarting my computer, uninstalling and reinstalling BBC iPlayer, disabling and re-enabling my firewall, connecting to the internet in different locations but this has not resolved the problem.
I tried to uninstall Adobe Air, but the installation package tells me it is 'corrupt'. So I tried to download and reinstall the application from the adobe website, but the computer already recognises that the app is installed. i.e. - I can't uninstall or reinstall Adobe Air.
I contacted BBC iPlayer support and they were unable to help - directing me to your website. I have read several other discussion topics posted on this website but not found the solution I am looking for.
Please can some help me to solve this problem, by helping me uninstall and reinstall Adobe Air for Mac?
I am not very technical minded - for example - I don't know what log files are or how to find them - so please explain it as simply as possible.
Thank you in advance for your help!
Ryan

Just had the same thing happen AGAIN. Suddenly - a blank iPlayer Desktop which failed to download new programmes. All previous programmes were still in the repository folder. This time the sequence I outlined previously didn't work.
What eventually got things working this time was to reinstall Adobe Air as part of the BBC iPlayer Desktop installation process - and not separately.
So:
a) Move iPlayer to trash.
b) Find and delete the following folder: Users/Yourname/Library/Preferences/BBCiPlayerDesktop.61DB7A798358575D6A969CCD73DDBBD 723A6DA9D.1
c) Find and delete the following folder:
Users/Yourname/Library/Application Support/Adobe/AIR/ELS/BBCiPlayerDesktop.61DB7A798358575D6A969CCD73DDB BD723A6DA9D.1
d) Find and delete the following folder:
Users/Yourname/Movies/BBC iPlayer/repository/cache
e) Find and run: Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Uninstaller
f) Empty the Trash. I found that bits and pieces of BBC iPlayer were still running despite having been quit and dumped in the trash - and so it wouldn't allow me to complete this part. Restarted the computer, then empty the trash.
g) Find the folder: Users/Yourname/Movies/BBC iPlayer/repository and rename it repository2
h) Reinstall iPlayer. It will tell you that you have no programmes to view. Quit the programme.
i) Find and delete the folder: Users/Yourname/Movies/BBC iPlayer/repository
j) Find the folder: Users/Yourname/Movies/BBC iPlayer/repository2 and rename it to repository.
k) Relaunch iPlayer
It would be terribly nice if the BBC or Adobe stopped buggering about with this . . .

Adobe AIR support for Windows RT and USB

We want to develop an cross platform application. We found that Adobe AIR supports cross platform development for Windows, iOS and Android.
We wanted to know wheather
1) reading and writing to USB port is possible with Adobe AIR?
2) Adobe AIR has support for Windows RT development?
Thanks in advance.

I wrote before about my concerns with Adobe AIR, but here is a short summary:
- no road map and no clear plans for the platform,
- support of new devices is often late, Intel chipsets are not supported on Android,
- debugging on a device is a pain,
- inadequate build times for iOS, app package is quite large,
- list of mobile UI components is very limited and UI experience is far from native,
- native extensions are a possibility but still far from perfect (imagine using three very different development platforms all in one app), no debugging,
- performance is not good if you use a lot of Spark components in your app,
- Flash Builder is pretty bad as the development environment,
- ActionScript3 is a poor, outdated language that encourages bad coding practices.
I ruled out HTML5 frameworks for the same reason as you stated above. Last few months I've been working with Xamarin MonoTouch and I think it is perfect for my projects. 100% native UI experience, about 80% of the code is shared among the platforms, iOS, MacOSX, Android and Windows 8/RT are supported. Took me about 2 months to convert my 2Mb ActionScript Adobe AIR project to Xamarin MonoTouch (iOS). The entire process was fun and painless. Now thinking to port to MacOSX and Android. My iOS app is already at the App Store, no major complains so far.
On a down side, Xamarin is expensive for an indie developer with low revenues. You need to pay $300 per year per each platform (iOS, Android, Mac). Plus, you need to develop UI layer separately for each platform, so only part of the code is shared. But I decided it is a way to go for my projects and it's been a very positive experience so far.
As for my professional development, Xamarin offers quite a bit more as well. I get to work with C#, .NET, iOS SDK, Android SDK all in one platform. With Adobe tools you only get to know ActionScript and Flex/Spark framework. Very rarely I see that as a desired qualification. It is like a trap. Your boss tells you to develop a few projects with Adobe tools, it sucks you in for a few years and suddenly you realize that your market value declined dramatically and there is no easy way out of this mess.

Does Adobe still support Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 & Adobe Premiere Elements 12?

Does Adobe still support Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 & Adobe Premiere Elements 12?

No, but then they never do support PSE very much. What's the problem?

Does Adobe officially support running Photoshop on VMware?

I need to convert from discrete servers running Photoshop for an image resizing function to a VMware/blade server environment.
Does Adobe officially support running Photoshop on VMware?
Also, what versions of ESX are currently tested and supported?
I understand there may be some special configs needed to get the licenses to work....what are they?
Also, if certain versions of Photoshop are supported and others are not supported under VMware, I need to know that as well.
How do you get to a product manager at Adobe?....For Gods sake, they have a customer service blockade to get to a person who knows this stuff.
Thanks,
Cody
