Flash will no longer be supported for mobile devices. Is Flash Builder also going to stop building m
Flash, specifcally mobile Flash, was effectively sentenced to death a while back. The first inklings came when Abode put out their own non-Flash media tool “Edge,” and then was confirmed when the company dropped 750 employees and halted all development of mobile versions of Flash, ostensibly forever. It’s not until now, however, that we’re seeing Flash really start to crumble. Android, once open to the protocol, will no longer be supporting Adobe Flash with its newest version, Jelly Bean.
What is the faith of Flash Builder? PC apps only?
Yes Flash is no longer supported in the browser... I am a Flash Developer and I think this is a good thing. I personally believe that Browsers in general on mobile devices will die a slow death.
Have you tried using them ... no matter what device you choose and how good the browser is, the experience is horrendous. Flash running in the browser on a smartphone is painful.
Browsers will be replaced by apps.
Let me give you an example.
I was upgrading the OS on my daughters iPod Touch Devices and noticed that their Safari Browser was in a folder called "Junk" along with the compassVoice MemosNews Stand, Stocks, etc.
I asked them "Why is your browser in a folder labeled Junk and how do you find anything online? "
Their response
"If I need to look anything up I search in the App Store"
Example: Daughter needs a Dictionary to do her homework... she wont go to www.dictionary.com she opens up her app store and downloads a dictionary app.
I see the app stores as the new Google.
The beauty of this is that us developers can sadnbox our experience and deliver it in whatever technology we choose to. We no longer care if Browser A supports Flash or which browser supports which HTML tag.
I have a 3 yr old son .. and I am convinced he will one day say to me. " Dad... I cant believe you used to have to type WWW dot bla bla bla SLASH bla bla bla SLASH bla bla bla "

Support for Mobile Device?
Do you foresee adding support for setting up mobile device projects (Android etc ...).
This would be great to help with any external - device specific - files required.GREAT!
Anything you can do to keep the developer writing MXML and AS3 is good.
Shield them from all the platform specific complexities.
Looking forward to it. -
How long will an iPad 4 play music whem powered by 2600mAh Flash Chargers for Mobile Devices
how many hours will an iPad 4 play audio when it is powered by a
2600mAh Flash Chargers for Mobile Devices ?Again, my issue is not with Flash Builder itself. In fact I think Adobe is doing a tremendous job regarding many things at this juncture. They've been under a considerable amount of pressure, especially since Apple tried to declare Flash an obsolete technology. I'm proud of Adobe and Flash - which I thoroughly enjoy working with. I also enjoy working with Flash Builder.
My issue is in regards to support. It's that simple. I understand that many features take time to prepare prior to their public release. This is obvious. There are a lot of tests to be made prior to even a first release. My issue is a specific one. It is in regards to Flash Builder and their attitude towards this piece of software as it relates to this "mobile storm" that has approached. Everything is about MOBILE, MOBILE, MOBILE. Well, ok.. it's about mobile. Adobe really only has two (count that, 2!) pieces of software that creates Flash content. (and NO, that isn't a lot). There's the Flash IDE and Flash Builder, which is SUPPOSED TO BE FOR DEVELOPERS. One would think that more time would have been spent of getting ELEGANT mobile publishing solutions into Flash Builder at this point. I'm tired of reading one massive pdf after another just to understand what the hell I'm supposed to be doing. AND.. on top of this.. they get simple, fluid, elegant solutions into the FLASH IDE in the meantime. iPhone, Android publishing with the click of a button in the Flash IDE? DONE! Months ago.. Flash Builder 4 with the same capabilities? Nothing. Command lines... Terminal windows.. give me a break. -
When will Adobe Reader for Mobile Devices support 3D PDF files?
When will Adobe Reader for Mobile Devices support 3D PDF files?
There are two basic varieties of LiveCycle XFA...Static XFA and Dynamic XFA, which are very different in terms of their future for potential support in Adobe Reader for iOS. Which variety of XFA are you using?
Static XFA uses the PDF markup language for content and form fields, so users can view the documents in Adobe Reader for iOS, but we currently do not properly handle filling, saving, and submitting those forms. I have improving our handling of Static XFA on my roadmap, but cannot offer any specific date yet (sorry, policy plus actual uncertainty). I know that there are some other apps that partially support Static XFA, though I do not know how complete their support is. If you can even open the XFA document in Adobe Reader for iOS, it is likely Static XFA.
Dynamic XFA is effectively a JavaScript application packaged inside a PDF wrapper, which generates layout and form fields via code and requires a significant engine to support this. Support for Dynamic XFA is unfortunately not currently on our roadmap for iOS due to the nature of the technology, and our concern that any implementation we try likely will not pass Apple's restriction against installing something that allows other "apps" to be downloaded and executed from within it. The LiveCycle team is exploring solutions for our enterprise customers wanting to use Dynamic XFA from mobile devices as part of their server offering, but I cannot offer any insight here. To my knowledge, there are no applications that handle Dynamic XFA other than Adobe Reader for the desktop platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux).

2014-01-10 01:01:29.833 WARNING J2EE SECUR-00100 ********** user-manager (see application/server descriptors) will no longer be supported in the next release
of this product!I just checked my BIOS and my current setting is set at IDE although it also mentions that the default should be AHCI. Currently I have a dual boot of Windows 7 (need it for Tax software) and Arch
So I guess, when I get the new HDD, I will first set it to AHCI and then install the OSes on it. See if NCQ helps any, and if not I will turn it back and re-install (if I have to). I am planning to have Windows only in virtualbox in the new drive.
Anyhoo, while I was in the BIOS I found two things which I had questions about :
1) Under Onboard Devices --> Integrated NIC , my setting is currently set at "On w/PXE" and it says the default should be just "On". Would it be ok to change it back to On since its a single machine and its not booting an OS on any server. I just don't want to have to re-install anything now since I will be doing that in the new HDD.
2) How would I know whether my BIOS would support a 64 bit OS in Virtualbox? I checked some setting under Virtualization, but they weren't very clear.
I will edit this post and let you know exactly what settings were present under the Virtualization sub-section. -

Adobe to ditch flash for mobile devices! A few questions
Just read the news. Have a few questions
1. Is AIR still going to be used for cross platform deployment as that is what I am using now ie: will it be used to deploy html5 apps/programmes?
2. What tool/IDE will adobe be using for html5 - flash? flex?
3. All of our multimedia swfs etc... - can they be exported/used in an html5 environment
4. html5 coding - is it similar to actionscript 3 ie: do we have to start all over again - back to school?
5. Games coded with actionscript 3. Can these games be exported to html5 or must they be rewritten?
Flash stays for pc it looks like.
So it is no longer multiplatform - we will have to code for flash on pc and html5 for mobile devices - is that right or will there be some kind of packager that will export our flash to html5
Just a few questionsI don't work for Adobe so my understanding may not be 100% accurate but here we go...
1. Is AIR still going to be used for cross platform deployment as that is what I am using now ie: will it be used to deploy html5 apps/programmes?
Adobe will be concentrating on developing AIR for packaging apps for mobile devices. AIR is ActionScript based and it does not produce HTML5 apps.
2. What tool/IDE will adobe be using for html5 - flash? flex?
HTML5 itself is just a flavour of HTML and therefore Dreamweaver is the Adobe tool for it For Javascript based timeline animation etc, Adobe has Edge http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/edge/
3. All of our multimedia swfs etc... - can they be exported/used in an html5 environment
Adobe has Wallaby http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/wallaby/ for this - I'm not sure how active the development is lately though. In any case it's impossible to replicate all features of Flash in HTML5.
4. html5 coding - is it similar to actionscript 3 ie: do we have to start all over again - back to school?
Again HTML5 itself is just a simple set of HTML tags. JavaScript is very similar to ActionScript, as AS is based on JavaScript (ECMAScript). For example HTML5 Canvas drawing API is very similar to AS3 drawing API. Therefore if you know AS, at least you know the basics of JS syntax.
5. Games coded with actionscript 3. Can these games be exported to html5 or must they be rewritten?
If you want it to run on browsers, yes. If you want to convert into apps then AIR does that.

Web gallery or slideshow, non-Flash, for mobile devices needed
Hi,
My website -- www.johnblaustein.com -- is all Flash and I'm getting some mild complaints from viewers who would like to see my work on an iPad or iPhone. I built my galleries with SlideShowPro and I know Todd at SSP is working on a mobile device solution. In the meantime, however, I'm wondering if anyone here has some solutions they might share. The iPhone screen is so small that I find thumbnails to be just about useless and navigation difficult. I'm wondering if there is a Lr solution that will produce a web gallery or slideshow that will run full-screen on a mobile device with a simple next and previous button. I'm even thinking I might just do a limited portfolio as a video file with no navigation at all.
Any thoughts?
Thank you.
JohnJohn,
Unless I go for mobile support, I am doing just fine as-is with SSP/LR. I understand the benefits of Director, but at this point I don't have the energy to learn yet another application... unless I really need to. I trust you that learning Director won't be as complicated as I am imagining, but at the moment "it ain't broke, so I don't want to fix it."
I do all my site work myself with Lightroom, SSP and Dreamweaver, so I agree that I could probably get up and running with Director fairly easily. The time will come no doubt.
Thanks again for all of your comments.
I was hoping that others might chime in here with other suggestions on making mobile device web galleries, but maybe there just aren't any good ones.

ver since Microsoft has announced that InfoPath 2013 would be last release for their most popular forms technology, industry and SharePoint community was awaiting for what’s next at
Microsoft’s announcements at SPC14.
As you have may have noticed from my blog articles, I have been huge fan of InfoPath form services and different capabilities it would bring to deliver quick no-code solutions for customers
backed by amazing InfoPath community. Although InfoPath forms had its limitations (branding, mobility support, XSLT based technology, required Enterprise CALs etc.), disciplined approach allowed me to design and maintain complex enterprise level InfoPath 2010
and SharePoint 2010 solutions.
Ever since Microsoft has announced InfoPath Forms replacement roadmap update session at SPC14, industry and community leaders were looking forward to this session. Interestingly, while
announcing has InfoPath and SharePoint forms update in January 2014, Microsoft has dropped some hints of Microsoft Word and Access Services being replacement for InfoPath form services. Microsoft provided early insight on their plans to deliver next generation
intelligent, flexible, agile, and integrated forms experience that spans devices and browsers.

I have made a website using iweb, as this will no longer be supported by apple, does that mean the gallery I have created on my website will no longer work even though I am hosting it with a different hosting provider. Will the other widgets no longer work?
There are a few things that won't work on other hosting sites; hit counters and pop-up slide shows for sure.

Will Apple be adding support for the pointer_lock feature in the Safari browser?
Various 3d games online are using WebGL (supported in Safari) but some are using the new "pointer_lock" feature:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Pointer_Lock_API
Will Safari be adding support for pointer_lock in the near future? Here is an example of a WebGL interaction:

I have already installed Window-7 in my Mac (64 bit). When I downloaded window support software I every time saw network error option on my screen. But network working very well and I can brows webpage. Will someone suggest me support for OSx Lion .
If I remember right there "may" be a problem if you have a proxie settings enabled.
System Preferences/ Network/ Advanced/ Proxies. Can't remember which one or if it was an issue in 10.7 or 10.6. Just make sure their all unchecked and try again.
You might try a search in these forums for more information. Different fix's for different issue's.

Could Adobe please advise if they will be adding tethering support for Nikon D600
Could Adobe please advise if they will be adding tethering support for Nikon D600 as it is instrumental to our decison regarding purchase.
Many thanksssprengel wrote:
Nobody is happy with the answer about old software not getting updated with new cameras, but if you look into it, Adobe had to lay off about half their employees over the past few years to keep the company viable in the declining economy, so they don’t have extra people to update and test plug-ins for non-current versions, and if they did, then some people wouldn’t buy the newer version and they’d have even less money.
Adobe has only just gotten the D600 supported for raw format in their current beta version of LR, which affects everyone with a D600, and if they had to wait for Nikon for supply and SDK and also have to prioritize their work to keep things on schedule, tethering is likely to lag behind raw-file support for any particular camera. Apple controls their entire computer environment, hardware and software, so it’s not surprising they can implement tethered capture from day one, but Adobe must figure things out for OSes they don’t own, both Mac and PC, so they rely on waiting for Nikon to do things for them, and then figuring out how to get it to work.
Well boo hoo for Adobe ... life sure is tough for them ... if they can't handle the load maybe they should get out of the business of software development ... They can't be all that worried about revenue to support Lightroom development or they wouldn't have reduced the price of the full version by 50% and the upgrade price by 20% ... it was a less than smart move considering they have been bragging for the past couple of years about how many more folks use Lightroom vs. other competitive options ...
Aperture 3, Capture One both have tether support for the D600 ... and many more cameras than are supported by Lightroom ... those developers are working and engineering solutions in the very same economy as Adobe (and C1 supports both platforms as well, costs much more than Lr and employs far fewer engineers) ... why aren't they suffering from the same lack of support? ... or using the camera makers to deflect blame for the lack of results?
Excuses are not solutions ...
