Flex for Mac

Could anybody direct me to information about the development
of flex for macintosh? Thanks.

Well I have blogged a lot about my working with flex on the
mac (
http://simb.net).
But the quick run down is that due to a bug in java on the
mac, flex builder is not due out for the mac until after the
initial release.
However because the sdk has been made available you can use
any text / xml editor you like to write and compile swf's using
flex on the mac. Because Flex Data Services are just a j2ee server,
you can already use it on the mac. And they do have the Flash 8.5
player for the mac as well.
So with the exception of Flex Builder as an IDE there is
nothing keeping us from developing on our macs

Apple physically replaced the HD on my Imac. I backed up everything on a Seagate Go Flex Desk for Mac external drive for Mac. I went through the motions to restore my Iphoto Library back to my computer. Can't find them!!!!!

Apple replaced my hard drive on my Imac. I'm lucky I backed up everything on a Seagate Go Flex Desk for Mac external drive via Time Machine . I followed directions in order to restore my iphoto library , but I can't seem to find it on my computer. Are the files locked?

No reason to assume they are locked. The library will be restored to the location it was backed up from, unless you specified somewhere else. Have you looked in your Pictures Folder?

Air 3.7 for Flex on mac

It sounds so simple and probably should be, but I just spend 3 hours trying to get the most basic setup running and I'm lost in the mess Adobe created. I followed a couple of tutorials and documents but none seem to be working.
All I want is to generate a Flex for mobile project with the latest Air 3.7 SDK.
I tried steps to replace the airsdk that is now deeply hidden in flashbuilders eclipse folders. That only allowed me to create an actionscript for mobile project with 3.7, but not a Flex project.
I tried to download the Air sdk that supposed to be for flex developers (http://airdownload.adobe.com/air/mac/download/latest/AdobeAIRSDK.tbz2). I overlayed these files into an existing Flex 4.6.0 folder. The result was that Flashbuilder didn't recognize the folder as a Flex SDK anymore.
I tried the latter step on a PC and it work so far that I can compile and debug flex for mobile apps on the ipad (with fast mode). Standard mode and export release build end in an never ending packaging process (1.5 hours now for a hello world app and still at 0%)
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you

Hi,
The Apache Flex project has a few scripts that will help you on OSX.
This will dowload and check the MD5 hashed of all playerglobal.swcs into a Flex SDK.
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/flex/sdk/branches/develop/ide/checkAllPlayerGlobals.sh?view=m arkup
This will download and inject any version of the AIR SDK into a Flex SDK.
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/flex/sdk/branches/develop/ide/addAIRtoSDK.sh?view=markup
The latest versions in the Git develop branch support AIR 3.7 (but harder to provide links to - sorry).
Thanks,
Justin

Customizing a backup plan for mac osx10.6.8

What to do to backup all content of every file to an external hard drive Go-Flex Pro for Mac
My old back back up plan is not sufficient. i dont seem to have Time Machine with my Sno leopard
Thank you

Unless you deleted the application, you most certainly do have Time Machine. There is a prefence pane for it in the system settings, and the application itself is in the Applications folder.
If for some reason you prefer not to use Time Machine, then there are a number of third-party synchronization applications available such as Carbon Copy Cloner, SuperDuper, ChronoSync, and a number of others.
Regards.

I started the CC (PS & LR) for Mac in October. LR keeps disappearing from the CC Apps group and shows up as "Install" in the uninstalled apps section. How can I fix this?

I started the CC (PS & LR) for Mac in October. Twice now the LR shows as "Install" instead of being one of my installed apps. The first time I spent 3 hours on the phone with customer support. He finally recommended deleting the app from my applications and then installing again. This worked for awhile but now LR no longer shows up as one of my apps. LR is on my Mac though and I have been able to use it, although I'm not using all it's features. Any clue as to why LR keeps disappearing form my CC apps?

Thanks for the help Jeff - Restarting helped.
Jeff, my rant is not directed at you as an employee of ADOBE - your prompt feedback is appreciated and will aleviate some of the antagonism I feel against ADOBE because of the business unit's decisions with litlle regard of the user's buying and using the software.
Shareholder must understand that if they try and force the hand that feeds them too far, it will stop.
I love what the software engineers are doing with the software and appreciate the individuals whose job (ADOBE employees/help desk sub-contractors) it is to try and assist, but, ADOBE’s image is tarnished in my eyes by their new subscription policy they are forcing on end-users.
So many great technologies have been killed of or completely missed an oppertunity to evovle to greatness. (Director, Freehand, Flash, Flex, etc...)

Exception in C++ air native extension for Mac OS X

I develop air extension for ios and mac os x.
I use the same code on ios and mac.
For ios all good.
But on mac - have problems.
In extension I use std::vector. Code example:
vector<Type*>* types; types = new vector<Type*>(); Type* type = new Type(); types->push_back(type);
Application crashed by line:
types->push_back(type);
I tried add try/catch block - but application crashed too.
I don't know what wrong. This code is work fine on ios and in console application for mac.

Workaround found:
Need to launch adl as a line command (depends on your directory config, of course):
/Applications/Adobe\ Flash\ Builder\ 4.6/sdks/4.6.0/bin/adl -runtime /Library/Frameworks/ -extdir /Users/vandrito/Desktop/simpleAirNativeExtension/launch/extensions -profile extendedDesktop /Users/vandrito/Documents/Projets/o3sui/simpleAirNativeExtensionTest/bin-debug/simpleAirN ativeExtensionTest-app.xml
Pay attention to the library location: it is the one of the Air 3.1 install. Did not check the same trick with Flash Builder 4.6 Air install.
Then use a fake web debugger to connect to the process (if compiled in debug mode). See here how to do (french):

LoaderUtil.normalizeURL() calls encodeURI() before returning. This fixes several issues when the main app/module has a high-ascii character in the path name. Note that Flex still requires user-specified urls to be encoded before being passed to the framework.

Dropping down to the next line is normal behavior because Menus don't resize. For what you want, you should probably find a good Responsive Menu system.

Opening animated gif in PSE 8 for Mac

I am switching from PSE for PC to PSE 8 for Mac.
I have always been able to open animated gif as layers and work with them, then resave as an updated animated gif.
WIth PSE 8 for Mac, I get a pop up that the file is animated and can only see the top frame. Any ideas on how to open up all of the frames in layers?

Do I need to enable this process for my Mac? Maybe I'm missing a plug-in or update?
I have been opening these files from others, tweeking and resaving for almost 2 years in PSE. It definitely will not shuffle the individual panels on an animated gif into the layers box.
My tweeking usually involves adjusting frame speed. Is that what you mean by 'frame rate'?
Thank you for your help.

How do i add multiple lines in a cell (like a list) in Excel for MAC?

I'm trying to add multiple lines (in the form of a list) in a individual cell in Excel for MAC. I used ALT Enter on my PC but that doesn't work on the iMac. Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks!

It's been a while but I think you hold SHIFT while typing a page break (RETURN) to make a new line without shifting to another cell.
However, as Excel isn't an Apple product, I am sure you will get a faster and more current answer by using Microsoft's Office:Mac forums here:

They are very good.

SAV for Mac 9.2.7 released!

Hey everyone,
We released SAV for Mac 9.2.7 to all home users late last week.
This release at a glance:
Compatible with OSX 10.6 - 10.10
Stability and performance improvements
Updated threat engine and threat data (release notes for threat detection engine)
Provides an updated version of OpenSSL
Fixed SophosUIServer.app crashes
Fixed streaming issues from francetv.fr website
How to get the update?
If you're already running SAV, you should have automatically recieved the update courtesy of Sophos AutoUpdate
You can also manually trigger an update by clicking the Sophos sheild tray icon and clicking Update Now
Download a copy from our website
What about OSX 10.11 "El Capitian"?
In the last few weeks I've seen some folks asking about 10.11, which is currently available as a pre-release. At the moment, SAV 9.2.7 *should* work if SAV is already installed before you upgrade, but the install will fail if you attempt to install a fresh copy post-upgrade. That said, we'll be releasing another update for SAV prior to the official release of 10.11 "El Capitain" which will ensure full compatibility, so at the moment we recommend upgrading with caution.
Questions? Feedback on SAV 9.2.7?
Post it here and we'll get back to you ASAP!

That should help you out.

I can no longer read any material in nook for mac. I have a macbook pro running lion. I used to be able to but something changed and i can no longer read it. any help?

I have nook for mac loaded on my macbook pro. When I try to open a book or magazine nothing happens. I`ve downloaded the nook program twice thinking it was a bad download but to no avail. Any help?

I found the following suggested fix, posted by a user on Barnes & Noble's site:
1. Create a folder in your Applications folder, call it: NOOKforMac
Once you've done this, copy the Nook app to this folder. This should allow the app to run on the 1st or possibly second attempt to launch it.
2. Once you're done using the app always quit it by clicking on the X (red in some cases) button of the application window (upper left hand corner)
This seems to have resolved the issue and my guess is that somehow the .dmg volume path is somewhere hard coded in the app configuration.
Elsewhere in that thread, the administrator advises calling Customer Service Team at 1-800-THE-BOOK (1-800-843-2665) and choose option 2 for Digital Support.
Good luck.

Want to use my ipod for Mac @ home and PC @ work....

I have a Mac at home and have my ipod set up for the Mac I guess. So I brought the ipod to work today to hook it up to itunes here on my PC, but itunes says only Windows formatted ipods can be used and that I have to do a restore on my ipod to use it.
I thought you could use the ipod on multiple computers? I thought it didn't matter if it was set for Mac or PC because you could still use it on both.
Any help? I want to connect my ipod at work so I can get the music on this computer. Thanks!!

Windows computers cannot read the file format the iPods are in when they are formatted for Mac use. However, Macs can read the Fat32 file format that the iPods go in when they are formatted for Windows.
To use the iPod with both computers, you'll have to first restore the iPod on your Windows computer (putting the iPod into Windows format).
The only downside is if there is an iPod software update, you won't be able to install that to the iPod from the Mac, just from Windows computers.

How to format an external drive for mac AND pc use

i want to format my external drive so i can use it on my mac and on pc's as well. i've gathered that the MS-DOS format is the way to go. my question is this: would this create any problems for my mac then?
can i partion one part for ms-dos and part for macos extended?
cheers
-j-

MS-DOS format (or FAT32) will be fine for both Mac and PC. However there is a 4GB file size limit with FAT32.
You could use a dual partition, however the HFS+ partition would not be readable by the PC unless you installed the third party MacDrive.
Look at this page for more information on a dual partition drive for Mac and Windows.

I have an external drive - WD My Passport FOR MAC. I want to format it to work on both mac and windows. Which format do you think I should use? Will either one cause damage to the files on the hard drive?

I have an external hard drive - WD My Passport FOR MAC. I want to format it to work on both mac and windows. I also want to be able to connect it to my TV and watch movies.
I read up and I think I am supposed to use exFAT or FAT32? I also saw MS-DOS. Which format should I should use? Will any of them cause damage to the files on the hard drive?
My little memory stick uses MS-DOS and it works on both mac and windows.
Please can you just tell me a little about each and suggest which one to use.
I know how to change it once you tell me so don't waste your time writing about changing it.

Will any of them cause damage to the files on the hard drive?
WARNING: FORMATTING A DRIVE ERASES IT COMPLETELY !!
If you need to carry large files (e.g., larger than about 4GB) back and forth, you may need ExFAT. Otherwise MS-DOS works for smaller files.
The Mac can Read, but not write Windows New Technology File System (NTFS) without an add-on program such as Paragon NTFS.
