Flash Builder 4 Premium reverts to trial version for SDK 4.5.1.

My setup:
Windows 7 and Mac OS X 10.6
Flash Builder 4 Premium, Version 4.0 (build 272416), volume license
SDK 4.5.1, Flex 3 compatibility mode enabled
RIATest 4.3 Professional
RIATest compiled-in agent: RIATestAgent3.swc
When running RIATest against our application to perform automated tests, I eventually get this alert appearing in  our application:
|                                                                |
|----------------------------------------------------------------|
|                                                                |
|    License not present. With the trial version only limited    |
|    replays are allowed.                                        |
|                                                                |
|                            [  OK  ]                            |
This alert never appeared until we upgraded from SDK 3.4.1 to SDK 4.5.1. This problem occurs on Windows 7 and Mac OS X. I updated our code to disable Flex 3 compatibility and use the RIATest agent, RIATestAgent4.swc. This did not change the outcome. Since this is an Adobe licensing issue, there is nothing the makers of RIATest (Cogitek) can do to help me other than to tell me to press the matter with Adobe. I'm using the same legitimate/legal/valid Flash Builder Premium and RIATest licenses as I've been using for a year now.
Why do I need a new license to perform automated tests against SDK 4.5.1? What license would that be?

In order for you to downgrade you need to hava an AVL license, and yes it is possible, you just need to call support.
http://www.adobe.com/volume-licensing/policies.html
Check Backward licensing policy
"Adobe allows program members to order a current-version license but use a prior version. These members can contact Adobe Customer Service to request a serial number for the earlier version if they do not already have one. Prior-version software is available via ESD and can be purchased through standard resellers. The program member must follow all guidelines of the current-version EULA.
Note: This policy is applicable under the TLP and Forms Licensing Program (FLP) as well."
Hope it helps!

  • Limit record and replay when use flash build 4 premium.

    I am trying flex automation in our company via iTest. the product is developed and built by flash builder 4 premium(not the trial version).
    There is a prompt like ""License not present. With the trial verison only limited replays/record are allowed" when I record/replay the tests.
    Perhttp://forums.adobe.com/message/251183#251183, it is caused by the trial version of Flash builder. But actually we do use the flash build4 premium to compile the application.
    Anyone got this problem? Can you provide some input this? thanks a lot.

    Deeptika,
    One more thing need your confirmation. If  I got following picture in Deactivation page, it means the FB4 premium is with license, right?
    I clicked suspend activation in my PC and it showed suspending activation is successful. But when I re-start Flash builder, I still get following page. I am wondering if this flash builder is still with licensing.
    thanks,
    Lucas

  • Upgrading Flex Builder 3 Standard to Flash Builder 4 Premium

    Hi there,
    Purchased Flex Builder 3 Standard back in January. Came to enjoy (and depend on) the memory profiling functions in the beta 2.
    Anyhow, Flash Builder 4 has been released, and I see there is no memory profiler in the Standard edition. I see some conflicting information out there regarding upgrades -- some (third party) websites say it's possible to upgrade Flex Builder 3 Standard to Flash Builder 4 Premium. Adobe's website says it's only possible to upgrade Standard -> Standard, and Premium -> Premium.
    The costs to upgrade to Premium from Standard would be prohibitive; I'd have to purchase two separate upgrades and the price would go over $US1000. Am I able to upgrade to Premium using my Flex Builder 3 Standard purchase?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I don't think that "downgrades" from FB3 Pro to FB4 Standard are officially supported. You might be able to negotiate with a Sales Rep to make an exception for you though, for a discounted price on a non-upgrade version of FB4 Standard.
    Alternatively, if you have any interest in CS5 Web Premium (or have any Adobe products qualifying for a CS5 upgrade), FB4 Standard is included with that Suite now.

  • Adobe Flash CS3 trial version for Mac

    At the end of Part 1: "Building a banner" tutorail from
    "Using Flash for the first time", "Testing your progress" doesn't
    work : a message tells thet the name is too long, whereas this name
    is "anner.fla", or the destination folder is locked, it's not the
    case.

    Yeap, as Steve says...
    Your best bet, if you really want to run the current trial
    version on
    your IntelMac, is to load BootCamp or Parallels and install
    (!) Windows
    on your Mac, which will then likely allow you to run
    Authorware in it's
    required Windows environment on your Mac.

  • Changes from Flash Builder 4 Beta 2 to Flash Builder 4 Premium

    I have a Flex app that started in Flash Builder 4 Beta 2 and when the beta expired, we bought Flash Builder 4 Premium.
    Before, when programmatically changing the selected index of a Spark DropDownList, the change handler was called, so in cases where I didn't want that to happen, I had to remove the event listener and add it again after a small setTimeout.
    In the new version, it seems that when I change the selected index programmatically, the change handler is not called, so if I want it to be called, I have to call it manually, which is also fine. I just want to confirm that this different behavior was an actual change that was made and isn't caused by some kind of other change I made to my code.
    Is there a list of feature changes from the beta to the release version? Thanks!

    If you right-click the toolbar you can get to the 'Customize perspective' dialog.
    From there make sure commands >> flash run/debug option is checked.
    Oddly, there is no "Flash run/debug" option to check.
    Please see the attached picture.
    Note that I am running Flash Builder Beta 2 (build 253292) on Eclipse 3.4.2 (build M20090211-1700) on Max OS X (version 10.5.8).
    Thanks!

  • Upgrade from Flash Builder 4 Beta 2 to Flash Builder 4 Premium

    Hi guys,
       How do i just upgrade from Beta 2 to premium?  Does the install utility for Premium take care of it? or do I need to some how uninstall and install Flash Builder 4 premium?  I currently have Flash Builder 4 Beta 2 installed as a plugin to my current Eclipse IDE, and I do not want to start all over again as there are quite of few settings/plugins already installed in Eclipse that I want to keep, and not waste more time duplicating the whole process.
    Thanks
    Jay

  • Coldfusion Builder and Flash Builder 4 Premium

    I am not sure should this question go in Flex forum or ColdFusion.
    I am going to buy the ColdFusion builder which come with the Flash Builder 4 Standard. And I need to have Flash Builder 4 Premium. So should i buy the upgrade which is US$499 or should i but the full Flash Builder 4 Premuim for US$699?

    Adam,
    Thanks for the quick/thorough reply!  You stated: You can use FB4 to write source files for any version of CF.
    With that, I will continue to march foward with what tools I do have; I just didn't want to waste time if the end result wasn't going to work.

  • Flash Builder cannot locate the required debugger version of Adobe Flash Player

    Hi,
    The problem seems to be well known for last yesrs and previous Flash builder versions, but I got impression that it is still unresolved for Win 7 64 bits, Flash Builder 4.5.
    I have installed:
    - Flash Builder 4.5
    - windows 7, 64bits
    - Flash Player the latest - 11.3.r300.257
    Please, let me know how to use successfully debugger in Flash Builder 4.5 without below error message:
    "Flash Builder cannot locate the required debugger version of Adobe Flash Player. You might need to install the debugger version of the Flash Player or reinstall Flash Builder"
    Sebar

    This is a known bug for Flash Builder 4.5 and 4.6.
    It will be fixed in next version of Flash Builder.
    The workaround for Flash Builder 4.5 & 4.6 is to download both 32-bit & 64-bit debug player.

  • Device licenses revert to trial version.  can anyone help?

    my device license was working fine.  All of the sudden it went back to trial version.

    Hello, thanks for replying.
    This is in reference to apps on device licensing for the education sector.  When I try to open the app, it goes to trial version and it should not be doing that as licenses are paid for.

  • CFBuilder & Flash Builder 4 Premium

    My company has purchased several keys for Flash Builder 4 Premium. It was our understanding that these product keys would also activate CFB for us as well.
    I have contacted Adobe support several times. All of my calls resulted in either being transferred around until I get up or being dropped all together.
    What do we need to do to get CFB working correctly?

    Hi,
        The license key is not same for CFB and FB.When you have received the license key for FB you should also have received license key for CFB.
    Please check whether you have received 2 different keys(1 for FB and 1 for CFB) for each license you have bought.
    Otherwise you have to get them first.
    Thanks,
    Krishna

  • I can't install trial version for final cut pro x

    What are you trying to achieve?  Are you editing movies as a hobby? Or trying to build a business – and, if so, what kind?
    iMovie is the first thing that comes to mind. Not the depth of FCPX, but it can still do some excellent work.

  • Help! Trial version for AFX won't Download (akami plugin? Vista?)

    I am on windows Vista home premium, and I can't download the trial version for AFX, anyone have any ideas I'd truly appreciate it.
    Using Mozilla firefox v 3 10, i have allowed pop-ups at adobe.com and content.  I select the trial version of Adobe AFX for Windows (english), I am able to get as far as to the Akami download manager (a window that pops up with that title) but nothing happens, the window that appears is empty.  It just says "done" instantly.
    In other words, nothing downloads. No indication of anything being blocked from my firewall, or the web browser.
    I CAN download other adobe programs from adobe.com that do not require the akami plugin (such as acrobat professional), also i can download programs from other websites, so i'm thinking, it's either a Vista firewall issue (which does not make sense), an Akami/Vista compatibility issue or a server issue (adobe side), the latter 2 seem the most likely possibilities. 
    I've followed the instructions (I think) accurately on possible trouble shooting for this and to no avail. The link for the instruction book for the akami plugin brings up a 404 file not found too
    Any ideas? or confirmations please. (is Firefox and IE explorer interconnected in some fashion? thus, would any settings in IE affect firefox?)

    Thanks Mylenium, I truly appreciate your response and time/energy.
    I did allow noscript to pass, and it was a brand new installation from Sun Java and brand new install of Firefox, was in fact why I installed both specifically for the trial because it wasn't working in Opera or IE.  =/     Hence is why i think it's Vista related or server side.
    I will try looking closer at Java related issues again like you suggest, another browser or try it from another computer.  Hopefully post an update if I figure it out lol.
    Thanks agin.

  • I am attempting to upgrade from Adobe Premier Elements 9 to Adobe Premier Elements 13 after using 13's trial version for a few weeks.  I am unable to find where and how to do this without losing the project I have been working on.  Please help?

    I am attempting to upgrade from Adobe Premier Elements 9 to Adobe Premier Elements 13 after using 13's trial version for a few weeks.  I am unable to find where and how to do this without losing the project I have been working on.  Please help?

    Vere Clarke
    Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 and Premiere Elements 13 are standalone products.
    So, you can have both on the same computer, but only open one for your work.
    The classical recommendation is to finish a project in the version in which it was created since there
    is no guarantee that a project from an earlier version will open in the later version. Probably will, but
    no guarantees. And, when you do explore this, do it from a copy of the earlier version project. Once you
    take the earlier version project into a later version one, you cannot go back to edit the later version edited
    project in the earlier version program.
    If you have both versions (9 and 13) on the same computer and you have not moved, deleted, renamed any of the version 9's files/folders,
    right click the saved closed Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 project file, select Open With, and then Adobe Premiere Elements 13.
    (Your 9.0/9.0.1 saved closed project file should be found in Libraries/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Elements/9.0.)
    Please review and consider. If any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to let me know.
    Thank you.
