Flash CC 2014 publishing Adobe AIR 17 - use captive or shared runtime?

I developed an app using Flash CC 2014, In IOS I had to upgrade to the builder and I got the function to work, but now I have the same app and need to develop for Android. I created a separate fla and did the following
Used Android 17.0.0.96
added the general info
created the p12 now I have the option to choose captive or shared runtime. I get warnings about each when I publish so I have to publish this app to GooglePlay and need to know the procedure as I'm on a Mac and I see procedures involving code when doing this on a windows machine.
Can someone help me out here?

I would recommend to use "Captive".
Difference is pretty simple...
Shared Basically means that it compiles the "apk" without the Adobe AIR runtime, resulting in a smaller file size apk but REQUIRES users to have the "Adobe AIR App" installed.
Captive means that it compiles the "apk" with the Adobe AIR runtime, resulting in a larger file size apk but DOES NOT REQUIRE users to have the "Adobe AIR App" installed.
If you want to Guarantee everyone can run your app, use captive. If you want to rely on users to hope the have the correct version of AIR installed to view your app, use Shared.

  • Getting Flash CS5 to publish an AIR 1.5 file

    *** For the record, I just want to say that I think it is totally absurd that Adobe shipped Flash CS5 with the ability to ONLY publish AIR 2.0 apps...which hasn't been publicly released yet. I've been working on an AIR app for several weeks and needed to upgrade from Flash CS3 to CS5 to take advantage of the new Text Layout Framework. Now, my app can't be installed by my customers because I can't publish for a version of AIR they can access!! How this decision got made baffles me. Adobe needs to be on top of their game these days and this blunder makes it that much more difficult to defend the Flash/AIR platform that I love so much. Flame over.****
    Now, for the workaround I've discovered. To get Flash CS5 to publish an AIR 1.5 file, I first published an AIR 2.0 app. Then I went into the app descriptor xml file and changed the version from 2.0 to 1.5 <application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/1.5"> Then I deleted the xml nodes in that same file that are specific to AIR 2.0 (<visible>, <fullScreen>, <autoOrients>, <aspectRatio>, <renderMode>). I locked the app descriptor file so it couldn't be changed by the next publish. Then I deleted the previously created .air file and the .swf file. I then republished the app from CS5 and it was able to install under the publically available version of AIR (1.5.3.9130).

    @mattwade, thanks for posting this. Is it possible to open up your flash project inside of Flash Builder to convert to 1.5?

  • Runtime Sharing - Flash Player 10 v Adobe Air 1.5

    Hi,
    [I]I am unsure whether to post this here or in a more specific forum, Mods please feel free to move.[/I]
    I am developing content for both web and desktop (inc Linux) distribution.
    I have a main.swf, which loads in content.swfs from sub folders.  I have some assets (movieclips) which are reused throughout the content swfs, so I have created a shared assets.swf which is in a directory at the same level as the content and within the library i have exported the MC for runtime sharing. 
    I then use this MC in other content swfs (Imported for runtime sharing).
    Folder structure looks like this:
    main.swf
    <assets>/content.swf
    <shared_assets>/assets.swf
    The import linkage URL to the assets swf within the Library properties of the content.swf is "shared_assets/assets.swf" as main.swf is loading content.swf so that is take as the reference point for the URL.
    Main.swf simply loads in <assets>/content.swf and adds it to the Stage.
    I build and run main.swf (targeting Flash Player 10) and my movie clip appears as I would expect.
    When I target Adobe Air 1.5 as the player - the movie clip does not appear as the path is incorrect for the linkage within content.swf looking for /assets/shared_assets/assets.swf rather then with FP looking for /shared_assets/assets.swf.  i.e. the Air runtime takes content.swf as the base where as Flash Player takes to root movie (Main.swf) as the base.
    Is it possible to set this base property for my Air distribution or am I stuck with having to have 2 version of all my content - one for web (FP) with the linkage as: "shared_assets/assets.swf", and one for desktop (Air) with the linkage as: "../shared_assets/assets.swf"?
    I have attached a simple example if my description is lacking (simply change the publish settings to target one or other player).
    Thanks for your time - any feedback is most welcome.

  • ADOBE AIR USING ASP PAGES??

    Hi all,
    does anyone know if I can use adobe air with ASP pages? I
    want to create a app using my websit at
    MovieRepliCars. It run
    using asp pages. Please email me at
    [email protected]
    thanks

    You
    can write an AIR app that
    accesses those ASP pages. AIR/Flash/Flex come with several
    classes for accessing web services. If your site isn't already
    factored out to provide generic web services, it's a good thing to
    do anyway. Then your ASP pages and your AIR app both get their data
    from the same source. This also lets you choose to open up the API
    you've created to outside users, potentially increasing the
    popularity of your site.

  • Tried to install latest version of adobe air using file hippo, this didn't work so uninstalled adobe air in the hope of reinstalling but this didn't work either.

    Hi,
    I tried to install an update for adobe air 11 yesterday, at the end of the process I got the message "An error occurred while installing Adobe AIR. Installation may not be allowed by your administrator. Please contact your administrator."
    After I click close, Windows Program Compatability Assistant opens saying "This program might not have installed correctly" and offers to "Reinstall using recommended settings".
    When I click on "Reinstall using recommended settings", the same message comes up about the error and contact the administrator.
    I use Google chrome and FileHippo update checker, I have also uninstalled the version of adobe air that was on my computer in the hope I could install the current version but unfortunately the error message is all I get.
    If you need any further information I will be happy to help, although I have forgotten how to do a screenshot.
    Regards,
    Helen Smith.

  • Loading flash 8 SWF in adobe AIR, loses the stage width in flash 8 SWF

    Currently i am using a CS3 IDE to compile AIR application.I
    am trying to load the flash 8 SWF inside my AIR application.After
    loading the SWF, when i try to trace the stage width inside the
    flash 8 SWF , it says undefined.Not sure why..
    Googling few hours not able to get the solution.
    Please help me on this, urgently needed.
    Thanks in advance

    This is a fairly common question on these forums. Basically,
    AS2 and AS3(Flex/AIR) can't communicate directly. You will either
    need to use LocalConnection or use ExternalInterface and javascript
    to pass info between the 2.

  • Adobe Air Uses Too Much RAM

    No matter what application i use, Adobe Air just eats as much as it wants:
    On screenshot you can see Market Samurai uses 1052MB which is ridiculous. And it is growing!
    Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit
    4GB of RAM

    Memory "eating" is a strongest and hightest trouble of AIR and of Adobe company too.
    So, empty and simple AIR application under Android allocated 95M of RAM !!!
    And this value returned from AIR System.privateMemory() function.
    Why AIR need so much RAM?
    What contended in this heap? Runtime machine?
    With a huge collections of photos of developer's grandmothers?
    Developers from Abode never think about optimization. Never think about others developers - theirs customers.
    We need a simple and easy way to strong descreasing amount of RAM allocated by AIR. May be 30M will be a good number. But for empty applicatiobn is still too large.

  • Printing from Adobe AIR using Reader/Acrobat.

    I have a product created using Adobe AIR.
    I have a portion where a pdf is loaded into a window, and
    they print it. When we change what paper they are going to print on
    (different dimensions), it does not take effect.
    We have to load it in a native PDF application (Acrobat) and
    change the settings, then print the piece off again.
    This is horrible for efficiency.
    Has anyone had this problem?
    Help!
    Andrew

    Hi,
    If your PDF has embedded javascript, your AIR application can
    talk to this javascript function where you can call the Print()
    method.
    Take a look at
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/flex/quickstart/scripting_pdf.html
    Make sure you set the location of HTML control to a HTML file
    (which has the object tag pointing to a PDF) using file:/// url
    scheme. I remember a bug where if you point to it using the app://
    or you don't specify any scheme, scripting between PDF and AIR
    won't work.

  • Share button to my App in Adobe Air using Adobe Flash CS6

    Anyone help me, I want to add share button like this in my app. How can do it?
    Have you found a solution? If so, would you like share to me?
    Thank you very much!

    Thank you guys for your support
    My air application descriptor is pointing to the "index.html" of my web application:
    <initialWindow>
    <content>index.html</content>
    <visible>true</visible>
    <width>1024</width>
    <height>786</height>
    </initialWindow>
    So I don't even know whether or not I'm using the HTMLLoader but with the help of @wadedwalker's hint, I was able to find the following link:
    http://anirudhsasikumar.net/blog/2007.12.19.html
    This is working! However as wadedwalker mentioned, the video is now played in a small box on top of my HTML pages left upper corner. If I understand you guy's correctly, it is not possible to embed this video box into a certain HTML element, right?
    Would it be possible to make the video play in full screen, add the player controls and a button to close this pop-up?
    It's okay for me to have some AIR specific JavaScript here, I can handle this in a build script and only embed the code when the AIR version for the iPads is build.
    Thanks in advance,
    J.
