Flash CS3 + Air 1.0 = no test?

I just installed the new AIR 1.0 plug-in for Flash CS3. I've
been developing an AIR app in Beta3 and when I open one of my FLAs
since the update, I can't test or debug my movie from within Flash.
Is this no longer supported? or have I botched that really
annoying 4,000 step
"uninstall/manuallydeleteabunchoffiles/install/butdon'tinstallthisbeforethat/nowyoumayins tall"
process?
Any help on how to remedy the problem would be greatly
appreciated...

jcedens,
Please try deleting the application descriptor file
(swfname-app.xml) that is in the same directory as your swf, then
test movie again. The problem is because the xml file is of a Beta
format. Another way to reset it to the release format is to open
the application and installer settings dialog. Also make sure
adl.exe is not running in the processes (ctrl alt del, select Task
Manager > Processes).
Thanks,
San

  • Getting Flash CS3/CS4 AIR1.0 app to work in Flash CS5

    This is a question in regards to Flash CS5 but since it's specific to AIR I'm posting here.
    I have a Flash CS3 AIR 1.0 project and I can't get it to compile in Flash CS5. If I recall I installed some extension for Flash CS3 to be able to create AIR apps. It was an Adobe extension.
    The app involves two SWFs. The first is the main app, Main.fla, the second is a window panel template, Panel.fla. The Main app would compile and include the Panel.swf which it would instantiate and load into new windows to create a paneled app.
    I was able to open Main.fla and publish in CS5 with no problems. The profile even says AIR 1.0 in the properties panel, although when I click edit it shows AIR 2.0 selected in the dropdown, and there is no option for another version of AIR -- which version of AIR is actually being created? Not important as long as it work...
    The Panel.fla on the other hand I cannot get to compile. The profile still says AIR 1.0 in properties but the dropdown in the publish settings says Flash Player 9, and when I compile it breaks on any AIR references, for instance:
    1119: Access of possibly undefined property nativeWindow through a reference with static type flash.display:Stage.
    I have this classpath:
    $(AppConfig)/ActionScript 3.0 AIR 1.0/Classes
    But apparently that is no longer good. I've looked in all the Flash CS5 directories I could find and there is no such dir.
    The issue here is that Panel.fla is NOT an AIR app, it's a SWF which runs in an AIR app. How should get this working?

    I changed the profile of both to AIR2.0, and it still shows AIR1.0 in the properties panel. I'm able to publish the Panel.swf now but it also generates an unwanted panel-app.xml -- unwanted because panel is not an app, it's merely a SWF to run inside the main app.
    Is there a better way? And why does it still say AIR1.0 in the properties panel?

  • Completely random Flash CS3 crashes

    This is absolutely driving me nuts. I'm experiencing what is
    essentially completely random crashes. As far as I can tell, they
    have only been occuring since I installed the Flash CS3 AIR
    extension.
    This only seems to happen after I've been working for a
    number of hours. I use CTRL-Enter to build, the Expoprting Flash
    Movie Prompt appears, my CPU goes to MAX and the software halts. I
    can still ALT-Tab to other programs, but doing anything in Flash is
    no longer possible - meaning unsaved work is destroyed.
    The SWF is NOT built on the crash. I can grab the last built
    SWF and what I'ev been doing is Sothink Decompiling it and
    rebuilding my actionscript from where I left off.
    I first noticed it only on my work computer, and it was soon
    after upgrading the AIR extension (through the built-in updater). I
    was not getting at home until after the updated as well (completely
    different Flash CS3 license).
    I'm not sure how else to explain it. If anyone can help -
    please do. I'm starting to save as often as possible, but
    sometimes...when you're in that groove...that's always when it
    happens. You know, after you haven't swaved for two hours...

    OK the problem isn't the DUAL Monitors, but rather having a
    custom workspace open while trying to close Flash. I have to change
    the workspace back to Default or it will not close at all. Any
    ideas.

  • Error publishing Air in Flash CS3

    Hi All
    On the Adobe Air Flash CS3 wiki page
    http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/AIR:Flash_CS3_Professional_Update:Getting_Started_wit h_AIR_for_Flash_CS3_Professional)
    I found a simlpe tutorial "Creating an Adobe AIR application
    in Flash"
    I thought well this can't be hard can it?
    However when I use the Publish Air File button in the 'AIR -
    Applications and Installer Settings' window I will get the
    following error:
    "namespace is invalid in the application descriptor file"
    Now I have tried to look into the XML file but I cannot see
    any problems.
    I also tried to use the descriptor-template.xml which came
    with the Air - SDK
    However also that will not work.
    Has anyone got an idea why I get this error?

    Hi FragFood!
    I received the same error "Namespace is invalid in the
    application descriptor file" repeatedly on many computers
    (XP/Vista) and here is how i repeatedly worked around it.
    I made a step-by-step sheet explaining exactly how to install
    Flash CS3 (9.0) with the Latest Flash Player (v9.0.124), and with
    Adobe AIR (1.0) as of today (3/May/2008).
    If you have already installed Flash CS3
    Uninstall Flash CS3
    Goto all the "Program Data" folders, RENAME/DELETE the "en"
    folder
    Goto "Program Files" folder, RENAME/DELETE the "en" folder
    Now to get the latest version of Flash CS3 installed!
    Please follow these steps exactly; each one is extremely
    important.

  • AIR Intrinsic Classes-Tried and Proven Approach to building AIR applications   in the Flash CS3 IDE

    Hi everyone,
    For all of you out there who would like to develop AIR
    applications
    from the Flash CS3 IDE but aren't sure how to get those pesky
    intrinsic
    classes working, I have a technique that you can work with to
    create
    your classes and make fully functional AIR applications.
    First of all, those solutions out there that list
    "intrinsic" functions
    in their class definitions won't work. That keyword has been
    taken out
    and simply won't work. The "native" keyword also doesn't work
    because
    Flash will reject it. The solution is to do dynamic name
    resolution at
    runtime to get all the classes you need.
    Here's a sample class that returns references to the "File",
    "FileStream", and "FileMode" classes:
    package com.adobe{
    import flash.utils.*;
    import flash.display.*;
    public class AIR extends MovieClip {
    public static function get File():Class {
    try {
    var classRef:*=getDefinitionByName('flash.filesystem.File');
    } catch (err:ReferenceError) {
    return (null);
    }//catch
    return (classRef);
    }//get File
    public static function get FileMode():Class {
    try {
    var
    classRef:*=getDefinitionByName('flash.filesystem.FileMode');
    } catch (err:ReferenceError) {
    return (null);
    }//catch
    return (classRef);
    }//get FileMode
    public static function get FileStream():Class {
    try {
    var
    classRef:*=getDefinitionByName('flash.filesystem.FileStream');
    } catch (err:ReferenceError) {
    return (null);
    }//catch
    return (classRef);
    }//get FileStream
    }//AIR class
    }//com.adobe package
    I've defined the package as com.adobe but you can call it
    whatever you
    like. You do, however, need to import "flash.utils.*" because
    this
    package contains the "getDefinitionByName" method. Here I'm
    also
    extending the MovieClip class so that I can use the extending
    class
    (shown next) as the main Document class in the Flash IDE.
    Again, this is
    entirely up to you. If you have another type of class that
    will extend
    this one, you can have this one extend Sprite, Math, or
    whatever else
    you need (or nothing if it's all the same to you).
    Now, in the extending class, the Document class of the FLA,
    here's the
    class that extends and uses it:
    package {
    import com.adobe.AIR;
    public class airtest extends AIR{
    public function airtest() {
    var field:TextField=new TextField();
    field.autoSize='left';
    this.addChild(field);
    field.text="Fileobject="+File;
    }//constructor
    }//airtest class
    }//package
    Here I'm just showing that the class actually exists but not
    doing much
    with it.
    If you run this in the Flash IDE, the text field will show
    "File
    object=null". This is because in the IDE, there really is no
    File
    object, it only exists when the SWF is running within the
    Integrated
    Runtime. However, when you run the SWF as an AIR application
    (using the
    adl.exe utility that comes with the SDK, for example), the
    text field
    will now show: "File object=[object File]". Using this
    reference, you
    can use all of the File methods directly (have a look here
    for all of
    them:
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/labs/flex/3/langref/flash/filesystem/File.html).
    For example, you can call:
    var appResource:File=File.applicationResourceDirectory;
    This particular method is static so you don't need an
    instance. If you
    do (such as when Flash tells you the property isn't static),
    simply
    create an instance like this:
    var fileInstace:File=new File();
    fileInstance.someMethod('abc'); //just an example...read the
    reference
    for actual function calls
    Because the getter function in the AIR class returns a Class
    reference,
    it allows you to perform all of these actions directly as
    though the
    File class is part of the built in class structure (which in
    the
    runtime, it is!).
    Using this technique, you can create references to literally
    *ALL* of
    the AIR classes and use them to build your AIR application.
    The beauty
    of this technique is its brevity. When you define the class
    reference,
    all of the methods and properties are automatically
    associated with it
    so you don't need reams of code to define each and every
    item.
    There's a bit more that can be done with this AIR class to
    make it
    friendlier and I'll be extending mine until all the AIR
    classes are
    available. If anyone's interested, feel free to drop me a
    line or drop
    by my site at
    http://www.baynewmedia.com
    where I'll be posting the
    completed class. I may also make it into a component if
    there's enough
    interest. To all of you who knew all this already, I hope I
    didn't waste
    your time.
    Happy coding,
    Patrick

    Wow, you're right. The content simply doesn't show up at all.
    No
    JavaScript or HTML parsing errors, apparently. But no IE7
    content.
    I'll definitely have to look into that. In the meantime, try
    FireFox :)
    I'm trying to develop a panel to output AIR applications from
    within the
    Flash IDE. GSkinner has one but I haven't been able to get it
    to work
    successfully. Mine has exported an AIR app already so that's
    a step in
    the right direction but JSFL is a tricky beast, especially
    when trying
    to integrate it using MMExecute strings.
    But, if you can, create AIR applications by hand. I haven't
    yet seen an
    application that allows you to change every single option
    like you can
    when you update the application.xml file yourself. Also, it's
    a great
    fallback skill to have.
    Let me know if you need some assistance with AIR exports.
    Once you've
    done it a couple of times, it becomes pretty straightforward.

  • Help!! Flash CS3 and CS4 "Test Movie" very slow on OS X

    This is a problem that, having read many forums, affects a
    very large amount of people, though Adobe doesn't care at all. It
    only affects OS X users. I know that it has been addressed many
    times in different forums, but I never actually stumbled across
    anyone having found a solution.
    When I use Flash CS3, and I make any animation, even the
    simplest tween, and I preview it with Test Movie, the result I get
    is an extremely slow playback. Something like half the FPS it
    should be.
    However, when I export the SWF and preview it in the external
    Flash Player or in a browser, it's just fine and fast.
    Another interesting thing is that in CS3, when I open the
    Help panel, the problem with Test Movie only happens like 20% of
    the time. In that case, it only gets solved if I restart or Log Out
    at least. I have no idea why the Help panel being open solves the
    problem, this only shows that this is probably a little graphic
    user interface bug, or something similar, that could be solved very
    very easily.
    In Flash CS4, there is no Help panel, so there is no solution
    to the problem.
    It would be nice to be able to press Cmd + Enter to see the
    movie, and not have to do File > Export > bla bla bla, open
    Finder, Find the SWF, double click it, wait for the browser to
    open... etc...
    I have a brand new 2.5 GHz MacBook Pro, and Test Movie runs
    faster on my 900MHz Pentium III PC!! Funny...
    Here are some links I found about this problem:
    http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-878
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb407896
    http://www.kirupa.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-258991.html
    This is quite ridiculous, and on Adobe's Support page, the
    solution is "Do not use Test Movie."
    And the funny thing is that they didn't even bother to fix
    this in CS4...
    So basically if something doesn't work, Adobe's solution is
    "Don't use it."
    I guess they're right!
    Please, tell me if anyone has or does not have this problem
    or knows anything about it!

  • Problem with AIR Flash CS3 Italian version

    I have installed the Adobe AIR update for Flash CS3 italian
    mac version but in the welcome screen I don't see the Flash File
    (Adobe AIR) preset.I know about the fix that consists in deleting
    the folder HD:/Users/<username>/Libraries/Application
    Support/Adobe/Flash CS3/<language>/Configuration/StartPage
    and I did it, but the problem remains. Now what should I do?

    Hi Alessandro,
    Please try rerunning the Adobe AIR Update for Flash CS3 to
    see if the problem can be solved.
    If after running the updater again and it still doesn't work,
    the workaround is to create a Flash 9 (ActionScript 3.0) fla. Then
    selecting Commands > AIR - Application and Installer Settings
    and Flash will ask if you want convert the publish settings to
    Adobe AIR, click yes.
    Thanks,

  • Any Flash CS3 AS3 Map samples available that work in AIR?

    Any Flash CS3 AS3 Map samples available that work in AIR?
    Like Google or Yahoo.
    The ones that I have tried fail to work when making the final
    AIR app.

    I changed the profile of both to AIR2.0, and it still shows AIR1.0 in the properties panel. I'm able to publish the Panel.swf now but it also generates an unwanted panel-app.xml -- unwanted because panel is not an app, it's merely a SWF to run inside the main app.
    Is there a better way? And why does it still say AIR1.0 in the properties panel?

  • Can I Install Air update for flash CS3 on a cracked Flash CS3 Copy

    hi
    I'm from jordan I tried to buy Flash CS3 from Adobe and they
    said they only sell to US and Canada,
    so I had a cracked version (got it from the internet).
    could I install the Air update for flash CS3 on it
    thanks

    1) I do not say that I'm from jordan to make you care or not,
    I just want to say why I use cracked copy because I can not buy a
    good copy from my country.
    2) I do not steal or crack software I'm a multimedia
    developer and I had to use flash cs3, and if you want to judge me,
    go and judge cracker who put cracked copies on the internet first
    (and by the way in my country that you do not care about it there
    is no cracker we use cracked copies your country do).
    3) This question was for adobe team and not for you.

    1) Every post I see that you have made recently reflects on problems that are most likely associated with your computer that are causing problems with your software. 1st thing I would look at with your problems (and I do not mean just this one) is a conflict with another program, ei antivirus software, etc. Trying turning off programs one by one, relaunching your CS programs, and see if you can find a culprit.
    2) With that kind of attitude you are only going to receive just as friendly/helpful solutions. Just because SOMEONE ELSE doesn't solve YOUR problem does not mean that THEY are ignorant.

  • Flash CS3: Getting Started with AIR

    Ok, heres the manual i'm following
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/air/1/devappsflash/help.html?content=FlashHelloWorld_1.html
    1. Start Flash. <-- oke i can figure out how to do that
    :P
    2. In the Welcome Screen, click Flash File (Adobe AIR) to create
    an empty FLA file with Adobe AIR publish settings. <--
    no?..i dont see anything about AIR ?
    soo..what now?..
    apparently this is the way you'do it..according to the manual
    which says:
    Creating an Adobe AIR application in Flash is much like creating
    any other Flash application. The differences are that you begin by
    creating a Flash File (Adobe AIR) from the Welcome screen and
    conclude by creating application and installer settings and
    installing your AIR application. -- great =/
    EDIT: i found i might have to update my version of
    flash.

    AIR Update for Flash CS3 can be downloaded from this link:

  • Flash CS3 ActionScript and "Test Movie" on Mac

    I recently switched over to a PowerMac and Flash CS3 from
    Flash 8 on a PC.
    I've been on a PC forever but wanted to migrate over to the
    Mac as XP and Vista and the headaches we all know about.
    So, within Flash you can "Test Movie" and a little test
    window pops up displaying your swf.
    It has always been the case on the PC, and my friends with
    Flash 8 on the Mac tell me it's the same for them, that you can be
    writing in the Actions panel and then hit "Control/Apple - Enter"
    and the ActionScript actions you just typed will be reflected in
    the "Test Movie" pop up. In other words it the "Test Movie" window
    acts as a constantly updated reflection of the latest edit to your
    Flash piece, regardless of whether you've "Saved" the .fla document
    itself.
    This is part of the normal work flow to me. Write some
    actions, edit them, when they are right, I save. But in the
    meantime, as I'm writing I can keep hitting "Control/Apple - Enter"
    to watch the changes of my edits and I'll see them.
    Well, on my new Mac with Flash CS3, the "Test Movie" window
    never updates to the latest edit. Whether with hot-keys or with the
    cursor/menu selection, the window will not reflect the latest edit,
    UNLESS, I close it first. If I close it, and then hit the
    hot-keys/menu for "Test Movie" then it will load my latest edit
    (regardless of whether the .fla is saved). So it seems that closing
    the pop up "Test Movie" window prior to is the only way to ensure
    getting the current edit/actions to preview.
    If you write a lot of actions script, then I'm sure you can
    agree that adding that "close the window" step into your work flow
    is really really a headache. And, if I can't find a way around
    that, sadly, I'll have to migrate back to the PC, ugh, and Flash
    CS3 on it, which still acts as it always has, with "control-enter"
    faithfully launching the current edit.
    Any ideas? Have you experienced this.

    You have to switch the focus back to the application and then
    to the test window. Evidently between Flash MX04 (the one I have to
    test) and CS3, they made it so that just clicking in the AS editor
    window doesn't return the focus to the application. In that case
    the Testing Environment intercepts the apple-enter and just
    re-tests the already compiled version.
    If you click the application window, then click the
    actionscript window, it will recompile the swf. However I
    personally don't find apple-w to close the window so
    onerous.

  • AIR in Flash CS3

    I'm having difficulty getting the option for New>Flash File (Adobe AIR). I've installed the Adobe AIR update for Flash CS3 Professional but the AIR file type doesn't appear. The update notes say "Be sure to follow the instructions in Installing Adobe Air 1.1 Update for Flash CS3 Professional to ensure you use the latest update" but if I follow this link the update doesn't download as it says I already have the latest version installed. In fact Adobe AIR reports version 1.5.1.8210 so do I have to uninstall the latest version of AIR and then install AIR 1.1? Rather puzzlingly, if I create a new AS3.0 file in Flash the publish options only allow me to target AIR 1.0.
    Any suggestions gratefully received.

    Hi David,
    Thanks for the feedback. It's never too late because we can
    change this in the next release of Flash (that also includes AIR
    support). However, I'm unable to reproduce the problem on Vista
    with 1024x768 screen resolution. The dialog still fits in the
    screen at this resolution. We'll shrink it down for the next
    release. Please let me know if you're using the Flash build that is
    not English.
    Thanks,
    San
