Flash CC optimizing for iphone 5: How to remove black bars

iOS test app i created in Flash CC is installed and functioning fine on my iPhone 5.
However, the app is optimized for the 640x960 screen and not the 640x1136 iPhone 5 sceen.
I'm only testing on the device, not uploading to the app store.
Can someone please point me in the direction of the correct code to optimze for iPhone 5 for device testing only?
THX!

This is really a loaded question. There's no simple answer and multiple strategies.
One strategy is the bleeding edge method. In that, you set the stage to scale NO_BORDER and exceed the stage in all directions with your artwork. That way it scales in aspect ratio to the device size but the images that bleed outside the edges of the stage will fill the black bar area. You then focus all your controls towards a designated 'safe area' for the device and assume the extra space may or may not be seen.
The harder but better method is NO_SCALE where you program like an Android device. You program your app so it detects the devices resolution and position all elements based on the available area. That means everything is constantly calculated based on available space, so it's a ton of extra coding, but it puts you in a very good port position for Android.
Bottom line, there is no magic bullet or Staples "Easy Button" to make your app work perfectly on all the (now) fragmented resolutions of iPhones/iPads.

Export to PDF slideshow - how to remove black bars?

Hello,
I'm using PE6.0 and need to output a PDF slideshow, which I have done successfully. HOWEVER, there are black bars on the sides when viewing the slideshow in fullscreen mode. I am assuming this is part of the way Acrobat displays its fullscreen mode. Does anyone know how to get the slideshow to actually display in real fullscreen mode? In other words, how to get it to not show the black bars? Thanks.

The target size (1440x900) has the same aspect ratio (16:10) as my display, with which I am having the problem with the surrounding black space:
I have experimented with this for some time now and cannot eliminate the black bars. In my case they are actually added to the individual slides when the pdf slideshow is created. Sorry, but I do not have a solution or workaround.

How to remove black bars after image rotation

I am very new to using premiere pro. I took a video with my smartphone as the content for a project. The original dimentions was 1280 wide and 720high. I imported the video and needed to rotate it 90 degrees. Instead of wide, I need it tall. I imported and then went under effects control - motion - rotation to rotate how I wanted.
But now on the screen has black bars on the sides since rotating it, and when I export the basic video settings is greyed out, so I can't change it. It is set/fixed at 1280 x 720 with the black bars.
How can I remove the side black bars in premiere pro to fit the dimensions of the newly rotated video?

You need to create a new sequence with the settings at 720X1280 and put your video on that sequence. It requires you to use the custom settings so make sure everything matches.
To export it after you edit it, choose a 720p format and unlock the Width and Height so you can manually set the image to 720X1280. That should work for you.
To make sure I wasn't steering you wrong, I just shot a vertical video, imported it into a 720X1280 custom sequence, put a title on it and exported it using an Android preset, unlocked the settings and swapped the width and the height. I then emailed it to my phone and played it. Worked great. It also plays OK in Windows Media Player. It is funny to see it that way on a PC, but I can think of a few reasons that I might be inclined to shoot that way. Specifically if I was going to play it on a portrait oriented display.

Just started getting intermittent error on my 3G:This accessory is not optimized for iPhone..." but nothing is connected or plugged in to it or anything?

Was just checking my iPhone and when I pressed the home button to wake it up the message "no sim installed" was on the screen, obviously it was so I restarted the phone, that cleared it but then I started intermittently getting a popup message "this accessory is not optimized for iPhone...(don't remember the rest), did a hard reset and still happening once in a while, there isn't anything plugged into or connected to my phone at all though, would appreciate any help or advice please

The most common reason for message "this accessory is not optimized for iPhone" with nothing plugged in, is dust, debris etc. in the iPhone dock port. Clean the dock port with a clean dry toothbrush. If the message returns again, clean the dock port again very carefully using some isopropyll alcohol, especially the pins which are on top of the dock mid rib.

You cannot. When you upgrade, you will get the latest version of iOS 7.

I get a message that says "this accessory is not optimized for this phone" how may I get rid of the message?

A lot will depend on what "accessory" the message is "not optimized". I get this message when my Mophie Juicepack is depleted, recharge it and no problems. Till the next time it is drained of course. That might give you hint of the issue. If you tell use what device you might be using when you get that message, we might have a different suggestion.

If there is no driver for iphone S4, how do I connect the phone and PC?

If there is no driver for iphone S4, how do I connect the phone and PC?

With the special cable that came with the phone. You must install iTunes on your PC in order to access the phone, sync it, and back it up.

This accessory is optimized for iphone/no music while charging in car

I have an iPhone 3GS when I charge in my car I get a message this accessory not optimized for IPhone. What does this mean? Secondly, while charging on this charger I get no sound when trying to listen to music. Thanks for your help in advance

I would highly doubt that the battery pack and car charger would both be defective!
I said no such thing!
I said if you are using the same cable with both devices, it is probably the cable.
I also said this can also mean your iPhone's dock connector port has some damage - likely due to mositure damage.

Why is the Apple Store App not optimized for iPhone 5?

You would think that the Apple Store app would be optimized for iPhone 5 4inch screen? Isn't this an APPLE PRODUCT. Come on let's get an update!!

You're not addressing Apple here, and any attempt to do so makes you look foolish. We're users here, just like you.

Is flash player available for iphone?

is flash player available for iphone orelse adobe and apple working on it?

Flash player for iPhone is conspicuously absent. Apple doesn’t and probably won’t even support Adobe’s Flash plugin because Apple charges that Flash uses up computing and battery resources too quickly and that it’s unstable, which leads it to cause computer crashes which Apple doesn’t want as a part of the iPhone experience.

How to remove black "blocked plug-in" window that opens with iPhoto. It covers iPhoto and everything under it. I've right and left clicked the black window, restarting the computer, shutting down the computer, but the window always appears when I open iPhoto and it will not move or go away. It stays on my screen (covering my desktop icons) even after I quit iPhoto. How can I get it off my screen?

Which version if iPhoto and MacOS X do you have?
Do you have any iPhoto plug-ins installed?
Open the folder /Library/Application Support/iPhoto/Plugins/
To navigate to that folder, open the folder "Library" directly on your Macintosh HD, then inside the Library folder go to Application Support, then iPhoto. Is there anything installed?

How to remove black background?

Hi,
How to remove black and gray background found in the attachment(1 page). Thanks.

You can't do it with Acrobat alone. You could if you had Pit Stop or something similar.
If you have Illustrator you could probably open it and remove it there but you'd probably end up getting font substitution if you don't have the same fonts on you system.

Using box2d flash as3 engine for iphone apps

Hi
have any body tried box2d flash as3 libraries working with flsh cs5 iphone apps.? when i compile app it give many errors, using flash player 9 give one error b2fixture undefined type error. any body developing physics base games as3 for iphone please share any good as3 physics base game engine.
Thanks

If you are targeting all iDevices I strongly suggest to forget about the Box2D. There is absolutely no way you can get (almost) any kind of physics simulation running smoothly with 1st and 2nd generation iDevices with current version of Packager for iPhone.
And it really is graphics that is the problem more than anything else. Forget about caching Sprites or MovieClips. Actually don't use MovieClips and Sprites at all, it's just too slow. Instead start extending Bitmap class with your own animation system (swapping BitmapData) and mouse handling (hitTestPoint), there's plenty of examples.
And then if you write really really optimized code you can get one fluently moving and animated sprite object running on your iPhone or iPhone 3G (with out doing anything else than just moving and animating that one object). More than one (animated and/or moving) object causes serious performance problems. You don't notice this as linear slowing in FPS (which would still be kind of ok), but it's more like skipping frames every now and then. This looks and feels really disturbing and makes designing of games pretty hard...Using GPU mode doesn't make any difference.
But to answer the question, I'm pretty convinced that you can get (simple) Box2D simulation running smoothly on iPhone if you:
1. Target only 3rd generation iDevices and above
2. Use only Bitmaps as graphics
3. Do rotations with pre-rendered frames (or don't use rotation at all)
4. Optimize Box2D and your code thoroughly
Just for **** and giggles I think I try to get some kind of physics simulation running on 3G too...
By the way, comparing performance of 1st generation iPhone to HTC Desire (I happen to own both too) is like comparing C-64 to my shiny new Phenom II X6 rig. If you just look at the specs:
HTC Desire:
1 GH ARM v7
AMD Z430 GPU
576 Mb DRAM
iPhone 3G:
ARM 1176JZ(F)-S (underclocked to 412 MHz)
PowerVR MBX Lite 3D
128 Mb DRAM
