Flash Pro changes filename in app-descriptor, causing an error.
How do I prevent Flash Pro from changing the <filename> in my app-descriptor? It's currently updating this node with the name of the application I'm compiling (to Android, iOS) which is throwing an error.
Thank you.
Simply because the schema, support and features of AIR are updated at a rapid pace to keep compliant with Google and Apple.
There's been many old apps I've had that broke entirely during the OS6 update that were fixed in the next version. When I say broke, I mean shattered. Being the XML schema is updated so rapidly the interfaces for creating them in the apps themselves (especially relics like CS5.5) can't keep pace. Believe me, you want AIR to be updated as much and fast as possible to address potentially serious issues and open new long awaited features.
How you're doing it now is probably the best way. I wait for FlashDevelop to tell me it's been updated, deny updating it, add/subtract whitespace and resave..
I think the best possible thing would be for Adobe to consider breaking off the XML-specific portions of the interface into a separate panel. The destination of the IPA, signing credentials, etc all can be in a different panel so the XML isn't overwritten every time you set them at export. Then simply get used to the very verbosely commented XML file and hand-edit it from then on. It's a really simple file to learn anyhow and I gut mine of all unneeded settings and comments so it's 1/8th the size. If people are making apps, this file shouldn't scare them at all. The Apple developer section, references and provisioning portal? Now that's scary..

Changes in hierarchy dimension members causes EVDRE Errors retrieving data
Hi everybody,
I am facing the problem while retrieving the data in Evdre this is the following situacion:
1. BPC 7.5 NW SP 08 is used.
2. Suppose that you have a template where you defined SELF,DEP for an account dimension, you expand and refresh normally, and retrieved data OK.
3. Your business case makes that you have to move one of the dependant member of the hierarchy to another parent
then you go to mantain dimension member and change the parent of the member in question, finally you process dimension, and put available set status.
4. Yo re-open Template or refresh dimension members from the server in order to see update hierarchy in account dimension
5. After expanding and refreshing the evdre, shows and error "...while retrieving the data.. "
6. I suppose the way to fix it is to reverse the change in dimension member, so I change for initial parenth but error continue.
What do you recommend for fix it? is there any note which solve it?Hi Sabine,
Hi Sabine,
Thanks for your answer, we followed all the steps you suggested, but the problem continue,
Could you confirm us what is the the path of that XML file of dimension thought BW - UJFS?
The only thing that correct problem is doing the following but not should be the best way:
1. Supress Account dimension in application
2. Delete dimension
3. Recreate Dimension and process it
4. insert dimension into application
5. Refresh Evdre and then works fine!
Is there any Sap note about it or something else to check?
Thanks For your help -
Flash pro CS55 vs. Flash Builder 45
Dear Adobe Community,
I have been a Flash Pro (AS3) programmer for some time, but since the advent of Adobe Air for Android and iOS this year, I've been seen increasing momentum in the use of Flex and Flash Builder 4.5. For both Adobe moderators/experts as well as community members, what in your opinion and experience, are the advantages of staying with Flash Pro to develop mobile apps vs. using Flash Builder 4.5?
thank you for your advice,
AlexWhat Jon says about using Flash Pro for minor AS classes and also avoiding timeline scripting isn't correct. I mean, it is correct if you are of a mindset that is more on the lines of Eclipse code editing, but there are other ways of working with Flash. It is possible to have very complex AS projects, and also it's possible to do impressively complex things with only timeline code. You can even do that in organized ways!
My general approach is that if I have to work with colleagues, or it's a job requirement to work with classes (like, there's going to be a code review by the client), or I am reusing a previous project's classes, then I'll do it as external packages. If I have to do something really quickly, or if it's a proof of concept, I'll do timeline code. Sometimes I will completely work out a technique using timeline code, and then incorporate the code into a class file to use with the main project.
I made the "select your own seat" application for Carnegie Hall site, almost entirely with timeline code (there is one place where I needed to share some code amongst nine FLAs, so for that I used #include of an external non-class AS file). I also made the MiXit apps on cartoonnetwork.com, and it has around 50 external AS class files, but also quite a bit of timeline layout and animation.
I just like how Flash Pro lets you work with graphical things and the code that drives them, all in one environment. -
Error installing Flash Pro CS6
I'm trying to install Flash Pro CS6 but I keep getting the following error (the message is in portuguese) after running the .exe file (downloaded directly from Adobe's oficial website).
I've tried it in 3 different computers with Windows 8 and in one computer with Windows 7 and all of them give me the same error. I'm using an Admin account so that's not the problem!The problem is happening when I try to extract the downloaded files from the .exe to another folder. The application has all the permissions available
Here is another picture of the initial screen when I double click the .exe file.
I've tried to extract it to other folders, like "Documents", "Downloads", but It gives me the same error as before. -

Does someone know what to do?1. Draw your button (a rectangle, circle, your graphic)
2. Select it and choose Modify> Convert to symbol
3. Choose type "Button"
4. Give it an instance name on the "Properties" window, like my_btn
5. Create a new layer and place your cursor on the first frame for the layer you just created
6. Press F9 in Windows or open the Actions window Windows > Actions
7. Write code to indicate the function for the button:
function playVideo(event:MouseEvent):void
myVideo.play();
my_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playVideo);
function stopVideo(event:MouseEvent):void
myVideo.pause();
myStop_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playVideo); -
BUG - saving with both flash pro CS6 and CC causes library symbol names to change
Concise problem statement:
If you save with flash pro CC and then save with CS6, in the library panel, symbol names are changed.
Specifically, pipes | and trailing spaces ("|Divider", "Divider ") get replaced by escape sequences ("|Divider", "Divider " ...) Ampersands & and number signs # also get replaced, such that symbol names grow exponentially if you continue to save with both flash pro CC and CS6 ("Divider ", "Divider&裘", "Divider&裞&�" ...) This makes it difficult to transition a team from CS6 to CC.
Sometimes, the original-name symbol remains, and an escaped-name symbol is also created. In this case, the children are removed from the original-name symbol, so it doesn't render anything to the screen; a mysterious, silent failure.
Steps to reproduce bug:
1. Create a library symbol named "|", save an xfl with flash pro CC, and close.
2. Open, save, and close with flash pro CS6.
3. Open, save, and close with flash pro CC.
Results:
A library symbol named "|".
Expected results:
A library symbol named "|".
I submitted this bug with the bug form, and also with adobe bugbase (in case it isn't obsolete) - I'm just trying to maximize my chances of getting a fix. Has anyone else encountered this bug?Hi,
We are aware of this issue and its open for investigation internally. This issue is observed when you have certain special characters in your symbol names and try to open that file in Flash CS6. This happens due to a change in the way symbol naming is handled in Flash CC and in Flash CS 6.
As a workaround, request you to use only Underscore or Hyphen as special characters while naming symbols or library layers etc.
We shall update you as soon as this has been fixed.
Thanks,

Need help with languages issue in iOS app created in Flash Pro CS5.5
Hello all,
I'm using Flash Pro CS5.5 on a Mac running Snow Leopard to create an iOS app by publishing with 'AIR for iOS' from inside Flash Pro. Everything works great except after I submit my app to the Apple App Store and it is approved, the App Store listing claims that the app is available in a ton of different languages including English, German, Chinese, Italian, Spanish, etc. Since this app is a word game and all the words are in English, this is a pretty significant issue.
If I view the binary details for the app in iTunes Connect, it shows that localizations are active for all of the different languages. This information is read from the .ipa file that is submitted.
If I unzip the .ipa file, I can see that folders have been created for all of the localizations (i.e. en.lproj, es.lproj, fr.lproj, etc.). If I delete any of those folders, the .ipa will give me a 'resources modified' error at install.
I have also tried setting the plist attribute 'CFBundleLocalizations' to 'English' by editing the 'app.xml'. I have verified that the attribute has been changed correctly but it does not solve the issue. All of the localizations are still active.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.Can you try workaround given at http://forums.adobe.com/message/3976641 and post back your findings.

Flash Pro is ignoring changes to my base class when publishing / debugging
Hi,
I hope this will be in the correct section of the forum.
I've been working with Actionscript 3 since a while now although most of the time I've just done straightforward coding using Flash Develop.
This is the first time I'm building a more or less complex project in Flash Pro.
Here's a quick outline of how the project is structured.
There is a swf file which holds a large set of components. Things like Buttons, Sliders, complex List components, etc.
All of them are written from scratch not using any existing components (reason being project requirements).
As someone with a heavy programming background I've done as little as possible in the timeline / frames, most of my code lives in classes which are attached to the components I've created in Flash Pro.
These classes handle all the functionality. These classes then usually inherit from a base class where some basic functionality lies that I need across all components.
The components outlined above are all marked for export and lateron imported into other swf files where they are used.
So far so good, all that works like a charm.
Now here's the actual problem.
Today I needed to make changes to the base class to change some fundamental behaviour across all components that inherit from said base class.
The change in itself was fairly simple.
However, every time I now try to debug or publish it will completely ignore any change I've made and use the previous version of my base class?
I can go as far as completely emptying my base class and every time I debug or publish it will do so using the base class from before. I can see at runtime that it is the previous version because of the behaviour of the inherited components.
That's what I don't get. Where does it take that version from? I tried clearing the publish cash, to no avail.
I can pace tracers, nothing. If I add code to the base class and make an error it will complain so when I try to debug or publish but once fixed, it won't use any of it. It's still behaving as if it's using a previous version.
What makes all this even weirder is that if I take that new code and place it into another class and inherit my components from this one, then the build will use that new verison with the new code. If I switch back to the old base class with exactly the same code inside it will ignore it again and once more behave as if its an older version of it.
I've been looking around the net but simply can't find what this could be caused by.
Now, sure, I could simply use a new class and inherit all my components from a different base class but that's rather unpractical.
What I would like to know is, why does Flash Pro ignore any changes to this class? Is this an issue with how I inherit my component classes from a base class? I kind of doubt it because it has been working like a charm before.
Could this be a Flash Pro issue?
This is also not the first time I've come across this problem. The previous time however, after much tinkering, it went away. Today, it didn't. I would really like to get to the bottom of this.
FYI: I'm running Flash Pro CC. I design my components in Flash Pro and do all my coding in Flash Develop.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.Hmm, my classes live in a subfolder of where my fla files live. (This sub folder again is divided into further folders to organise the code)
I haven't actually setup any class paths. (default class path is set to .)
If I set the default class path to the folder where my code lives I get a ton of errors telling my that my package names don't reflect the location of my files.
edit: That was a mistake on my side. I've set the class path to where my code lives and made sure the package names still match up.
Unfortunately it still ignores my base class (which lives in a sub folder of the defined class path) -
Hi
My Flash pro cc is acting weird, pushing the hard- drive to its limits tried to install and reinstall and do a clean setup , scanned for malwares but nothing came out of this , one more thing bizarre each time i go check my preferences tab every thing would go back to normal for a while ... .
Windows 8 64 bit
MObo : Asus gryphon
Graphics : Asus Gtx 750 ti.
HDD: WD3200AVJS-63B6A0 320 gigs.Hi Memalyn
Essentially, the bare issue is that you have a 500GB hard drive with only 10GB free. That is not sufficient to run the system properly. The two options you have are to move/remove files to another location, or to install a larger hard drive (eg 2TB). Drive space has nothing to do with SMC firmware, and usually large media files are to blame.
My first recommendation is this: download and run the free OmniDiskSweeper. This will identify the exact size of all your folders - you can drill down into the subfolders and figure out where your largest culprits are. For example, you might find that your Pictures folder contains both an iPhoto Library and copies that you've brought in from a camera but are outside the iPhoto Library structure. Or perhaps you have a lot of purchased video content in iTunes.
If you find files that you KNOW you do not need, you can delete them. Don't delete them just because you have a backup, since if the backup fails, you will lose all your copies.
Don't worry about "cleaners" for now - they don't save much space and can actually cause problems. Deal with the large file situation first and see how you get on.
Let us know what you find out, and if you manage to get your space back.

I need to change the height of a Captivate playbar using Flash Pro
I need to change the height of a playbar in Adobe Captivate. I have Flash Pro. I am very new to Flash Pro. I read.. "To change the height of the playbar, adjust the height of pbcBk_mc movie clip inside cpPlaybar symbol in Library". The problem is I CAN'T FIND pbcBk_mc anywhere. I see the cpPlaybar attrbute. When I click on it and look at the timeline I am not seeing an attribute for pbcBk_mc or height. Where in the world is it??
You start with a source / authoring file for the "static" content (e.g., Name, Last:). Say this is an MS Word file.
You master the "static" content..
You keep this authoring file and have a backup of this file.
You output a PDF and use Acrobat to build and fine tune the "form" (form = the form fields, not the "static" content).
The authoring file and output PDF (with form fields) gives you "rev 00".
Now, you must change something in the "static" content.
Open the authoring file and save as to a new version (e.g., "wordfile_v00" becomes "wordfile_v01).
Output this to "pdffile_v01".
Use Acrobat to open the PDF form file "pdffile_v00". Save As to a new file name ("pdffile_v00update").
Using Acrobat XI Pro the click-path Tools - Pages - Replace lets you replace a page or pages of "pdffile_v00update" with a page or pages from "pdffile_v01".
This replaces the "static" PDF page content and does not affect the form fields on the page.
(you may have to adjust position of form fields)
Save "pdffile_v00update" to "pdffile_v01" to reflect the revised status of the PDF form file.

Need Help testing iOS app created in Flash Pro Cs5.5
I've followed several instructions on how to develop a simple iOS app. I've managed to go all the way through and Publish + create the .ipa. I'm able to then add the file to my iTunes library, but when I then try to add it to my iPod Touch (2nd Generation) I get the following error:
The app "XXXXXX" was not installed on the iPod "XXXXX's Ipod" because it is not compatible with this iPod.
I've even tried it with a simple "Hello World!" app but I get the same error.
I'm using Flash Pro Cs5.5 on a Windows PC.
Any suggestions?I'm having the exact same problem with my iphone 3G. I tried publishing the exact same simple flash app to my iphone, which I already previously tested succesfully, after having downloaded flash 5.5, and now I get the following message (which, I believe, is identical to yours kinant87) :
"The app "Main" was not installed on the iPhone "Norgaard" because it is not compatible with this iPhone."
I was trying to make another small app, when I got this problem, which is why I went back to re-test the app I knew was working!
I've reinstalled all my apple certificates, and also tried using flash builder 4.5, with the same result.
I also have not jail broken my phone, and was starting to think perhaps the iPhone 3G was no longer supported? -
Some of Photo (JPEG)-compressed images by Flash Pro are not shown in AIR app (3.7/3.8)
Does anyone see this issue happening? In Flash Pro it's OK, but in AIR, it's broken.
https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3558175
Problem Description:
Some JPEG-compressed images in swc produced by Flash Pro CS6 is not shown in AIR.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a fla with Flash Pro CS6
2. Put a png image in it and open the property of the image to make sure its compression option is Photo (JPEG)
3. Produce an swc out of the fla
4. Create an AIR app that shows the contents in the swc
Actual Result:
All images are shown
Expected Result:
Some of the images are not shown (nothing is shown where they are supposed to be)
Any Workarounds:
Use Lossless (PNG/GIF) for all imagesi was able to get it to work from a suggestion in another thread: if you write a JSFL that goes through all your bitmaps and makes sure they do not uset he default compression of the document, but instead use custom compression (it can match the default however). this worked for me
