I am really touched to see Air 2.6... but dear Adobe...

Question #1
This 2.6 brought so many amazing features into packager, it will be really cool if Adobe can hint about it earlier! Can Adobe shares with all the fans what are their roadmaps or priorities when they are improving the product? No obligation, we wont blame Adobe if the team delayed it, some hints on what the Adobe team is working on in the next version can save many lives. Is this a mission impossible?
For example, is Adobe working on native video player support? Or the team has met obstacles so that it is technically not feasible? Dun be shy to tell us -_-
Question #2
I have stopped monitoring this forum for quite awhile, but i remember when i was relatively active here, official responses in this forum is almost negligible - actually i cant remember i see any staff response. In contrast, when i joined the Adobe Digital Publishing Tool forum, staff responses is EVERYWHERE, questions are answered there... overhere it looks like a bunch of fans holding each other's hand and trying to save each other...  my question is, should there be an official voice here?
hellloo..... any staff hear me me me me me (echo...............).

I agree on both of Terrence's points.  No doubt, there are some seriously helpful people in these forums (Colin especially), but we're collectively navigating a jungle.  It feels like Adobe's putting in the effort to make AIR/Android-/iOS-deployment work well, but if us devs have so much trouble figuring out all the large-scale and small-scale mechanics, it's (a) frustrating, and (b) time-consuming, and (c) giving me the feeling that I am missing a lot of possibilities / best practices.
At the very least, could Adobe please dedicate a half a day a week of an employee's time to charge through here and answer the big headaches?
I'd love to know if native video support is on the roadmap.  It'd be great to switch my answer to clients / employer from "I can't make the video perform anywhere near as well as a native Obj-C program" to "it looks like that may be solved in the near future."  I'm getting a lot of pressure to drop Flash because it's "not as good," though personally I believe the platform will get there and continue to be the best choice for multiscreen deployment.
It's great to read blog posts after you come out with something, but.. the more we know what's ahead, the better we can plan.  (how about WebOS?  Any intention there?)

  • I have a bright white screen on my Gen 4 ipod nano. I can still see text if I look hard enough, and it still plays music and stuff, but it's really hard to see.

    As described above, my screen is bright white, but it still plays music. It's really hard to see, and I've tried everything. I manually restarted it like 20 times, I updated software and reset it, and I've just waited. It's happened once before, but after I waited 20 minutes it worked, and that was 6 months ago. But this time, it seems to just stay with a white screen.
    If anybody knows what to do to solve this, and what caused this, please answer.

    Water damage is not covered, and I guess Apple tech will find out about it as soon as they open the device.

  • Can see iPad Air in iTunes but can't sync or back up. Could 2 days ago.

    Can see iPad Air in iTunes but will no longer sync or back up, could 2 days ago. Can drag apps from library onto device however 'apply' is not available, nor is 'sync' under Devices.

    Disconnect other USB devices from your computer and connect iPad to a different USB 2.0 port on your computer (not on your keyboard).
    Turn iPad off and turn it on again. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on top of iPad for a few seconds, until a red slider appears. Then slide the slider.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Restart your computer. Then reconnect iPad to your computer.

  • I have just bought a MacBook Air in Madrid, but the keyboard types ç when I hit -, for example, when I hit shift for the bracket sign I get *. How can I re-set it to type what I see on the keys.

    I have just bought a MacBook Air in Madrid, but the keyboard types, for example, ¿ when I hit shift and the semi-colon key, and = when I hit the ! key. What do I have to do to reset it to function normally?

    Go>Preferences>Language & Text>Input Sources
    Click off the flags of the countries you want--like if you need a British keyboard that has a British pound symbol, pick that one.
    When you're done picking, them leave preferences. Now, in the upper right-hand corner of your computer, next to the date, you'll see a little flag. Click on that. You'll see all the flags you picked. Choose the one you want. Your keyboard will now give you the symbols, letters, etc. that you would get if you'd bought the computer in that country.

  • Using a mtech hiface usb device with macbook air is producing a lot of static. when i touch the mac air it stops then starts when i remove my hand. Help?

    Im using a mtech hiface usb device for audio on my Mac Air. If i disconnect it from its ac and disconnect the hiface from the usb then take the Mac Air to a new location to work then return it I have an awful lot of static. im assuming its static electricity from the move or something. ive tried to ground it with my body by touching the mac air while touching something grounded. The static stops at that point but starts all over when i move my hand away from the computer. Any suggestions, could it be a setting in the USB? Thanks.

  • I have just upgraded my iphone to iOS7, I use reading glasses and now it's really hard to see anything, thin, pale gray font, an overall lack of visual definition, surely this is a downgrade?

    I have just upgraded my iphone to iOS7, I use reading glasses and now it's really hard to see anything, thin, pale gray font, an overall lack of visual definition, surely this is a downgrade? Built-in apps and their icons now look awful, why was it necessary to fix something that wasn't broken? Just to keep web designers busy?

    Go into your settings and you can adjust the text and the contrast on your phone.

    I updated my ipod touch to version 5.0.1 but all my apps are gone!!
    Why are all my apps gone? I really want them back, i was rated #4 of all time on one game!

    Are the Apps still in your iTunes library?  If they are simply make sure they are configured to sync to your iPod still.  See this article for more details.

    Otherwise, you can redownload any and all of them at no cost.

  • HT1369 Ipod touch not being recognized by itunes (but is registering as an external drive by the computer itself) have updated and reinstalled itunes, stopped/started apple mobile device and removed and mobile programs associated with my non apple cellpho

    Ipod touch not being recognized by itunes (but is registering as an external drive by the computer itself) have updated and reinstalled itunes, stopped/started apple mobile device and removed any mobile programs associated with my non apple cellphone. This seems to have started happening after the last Itunes update I did as I was able to put music on my ipod touch a month or so ago. Is there some way to go back to an older version of itunes? I really have no idea what else to do since I followed every step on the trouble shooting page for windows 8.

    I had this problem too and my roommate solved it!
    Go to 'Settings'
    'Music'
    Scroll to the bottom and enter your password to log onto your home sharing
    Then connect to iTunes and sync!

    I am running OS X 10.5.8 and don't see an iCloud icon in my system preferences.  I do see a Mobileme icon but I would like to have all my mac devices on iCloud.  How can I get iCloud on my desktop?

    iCloud requires 10.7.2 or later. See the following about how to upgrade:
    Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later

             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
