Installing and using Adobe Air SDK 2.5 with Flash Professional CS4

Hi,
I am trying to install the Air SDK 2.5 with Flash Professional CS4 with the intention of creating a program to use Actionscript 3 to communicate with the UDP interface using datagrams. (The server is the IL2 device link interface) As I am very new to this development environment I was wondering if anyone could answer a few questions.
1) Can I use datagram sockets with Air 2.5 with Actionscript 3 and Flash CS4?
2) Is there special procedure for installing the AIR SDK 2.5 or do I use the instructions layout in "How to Overlay the Adobe Air 2 SDK for Use with Flash Professional - Flash professional CS4"?
3) If I do use those instructions, when I edit the namespace for my application do I set it to 2.0 or 2.5?
4) As a stepping stone to building my program I was trying to try to build the Actionscript 3 DatagramSocketExample program that is published by Adobe. Unfortunately I am getting a '1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: DatagramSocketDataEvent'.
Is there a step by step tutorial on how to get the example code up and running?
Thankyou for your time and patience with my noob questions
Ian

This was part of the AIR 2.0 beta release note, but I used this for 2.5 and it works nice.
You can try it too an make sure you use 2.5 wherever the not says 2.0beta2.
Goodluck.
How to Update Flash CS4 to Use the AIR 2 Beta SDK
If you use Flash CS4 Professional to build Adobe AIR applications, please follow the instructions below to manually update the version of the AIR SDK to use version 2.0.
Update Flash CS4 Professional to version 10.0.2 at http://www.adobe.com/support/flash/downloads.html or select "Help > Updates... " from within Flash CS4.
Quit Flash CS4 Professional if it is open.
Navigate to the Flash CS4 installation folder. The default location on Windows is "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS4\" and on Mac OS "/Applications/Adobe Flash CS4/"
Within the "Adobe Flash CS4" folder you should see a folder called "AIK1.5". If this folder is not present repeat step #1.
Rename the folder "AIK1.5" to "AIK1.5 OLD" or delete it if you do not need to save a copy of it.
Make a new folder called "AIK1.5"
Download the Adobe AIR 2 SDK from the labs website and uncompress the contents of the folder to the new "AIK1.5" folder you just created.
Copy the "airglobal.swc" file located within the "Adobe Flash CS4/AIK1.5/frameworks/libs/air/" folder into the "Adobe Flash CS4/Common/Configuration/ActionScript 3.0/AIR1.5/" folder.
Flash CS4 is now configured to use the AIR 2 beta 2 SDK.
In order to take advantage of the new AIR 2 beta 2 features, you will need to update your application descriptor file to use the "2.0beta2" namespace.

Hello guys..does anybody know how to install and use adobe master collection with the new lion?
I need to use Flash and illustratore, but apparently those programmes are incompatible with the new operative sistem...
I am a new mac users and I'd like to know if there are other similar programmes I can use with lion!

well dude I can only let you know that as I work with those programme I don't have to pay for it is my company that pays the programme I whant to use( that's why I was asking if there where other programmes ..that I could use with lion insted that Illustrator and Flash!)..I know Adobe since 2005 and I can say that Adobs products are very good...I think that if it's an Adobe probleme or fault ..they will solve it very soon...but unfortunally I have the impression that after Jobs passed away Appel decided to change politics..and everything started to go very bad! (see FCP X)..
good luck with apple dude..
Where is the Apple problem? I have CS4 and CS5 running perfectly fine on my Macbook Pro. Installed 5 after Lion upgrade. Worth every cent. Adobe did have some catching up to do with Lion but with the CS5.5 update all runs fine. But not yours. So it is a problem with the Lion OS? You say you have been with Adobe since 2005. So you would be aware of all the other issues that Adobe had catching up with past Oss in Mac and Windows then. They get it right, but it is up to them. It is not up to Apple, nor Microsoft for that matter, to run around and check that every software developer in the world is running their business properly.
And what has politics got to do with anything. Some people just have to blame Software for their poor Hardware maintainence of failure of the same.
<The only think I can really do is to go back on my old windows...give back this orrible lap top and ask for my money back!>
Great suggestion. You should go with that one, but good luck getting a refund.

Developing and using Adobe AIR native extensions for Android devices

I was using this tutorial:
"Developing and using Adobe AIR native extensions for Android devices"
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/ane-android-devices.html
When packing the Flex mobile ANESampleTest to deploy on an Android device, the below error happens
Error occurred while packaging the application:

Does anyone know what the issue might be?

Did you find a workaround for the Error? I'm getting the same and I can't seem to find any solution.

The Error Message 'Application descriptor file cannot be parsed' shows when compiling (Ctrl + Enter) Adobe AIR for Android applications on Flash Professional CS5.5
This is happening for most of the pupils and staff at our school and they are unable to complete their work.
This also happens on a fresh copy of windows and CS5.5 without any updates and also with all latest updates.
I have tried it on 32-bit and 64-bit CS5, Windows, Air and Java with the same error every time.
There are a small minority of users where this works fine for them with no issue.
I have tried re-setting user profiles.
I have tried a local admin and domain admin account with the same issue
I have noticed however that if the file is moved to the shared area it will compile. If it is on their documents area it will not compile. The users have full control in both locations. This is fine for staff but we are unable to give full control or modify access to the shared area for the pupil's
I have been through the online support section and it directed me to phone Adobe Customer care who informed me that all support has been discontinued for CS5, CS5.5 and CS6 and they will only support creative cloud.
Any ideas what to try next? There is no other information about this error and I cannot work out what is causing it.

I have tried and able to package an apk using your XML file.Could you please make sure your XML file starting from line 1 and coloumn 0.Any space will results in the error (Application Descriptor file cannot be parsed)

Installing and using Adobe Exchange for CS 4

Here is the situation. I have CS 4 Design Premium which has Adobe Exchange already however when i try to use it the file extensions . mxp to install what i am assuming is the Adobe exchange extension/ plugin that is needed to contribute items to the Adobe website or exchange site. I have already downloaded the Adobe Exchange i have put it in my extension in CS 4, i have put it in my plug ins in CS 4 both times i have restarted the program and both times the extension has not shown up in photoshop so hep please.
I need STEP BY STEP instructions please.

Hi designsbyamerianna,
Are you trying to install the Adobe Exchange Panel (downloaded from www.adobeexchange.com) in CS4?
If so, unfortunately this is not going to be possible for technical reasons; the Adobe Exchange panel requires CS6 or above to work correctly and is incompatible with CS4.
Please see the FAQs for more information:
https://www.adobeexchange.com/resources/6#faq33
Otherwise, can you please tell me where you found the ZXP that you are trying to install, and whether you used Extension Manager?
Best wishes,
Fraser

How to successfully install and use Adobe Flash Player on an iMac?

I have the latest OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion. It makes actually several years that I have not been able to view videos that use Adobe Flash Player. This is true of several sports websites I like such as ATPtour.com and ESPN.com. A few days ago I have upgraded my OS to the most current one. And, I retried downloading Adobe Flash Player and it made no difference. I tried to see the videos using numerous different browzers (Safari, Chrome, Firefox) with no success.
I know Steve jobs hated Adobe Flash Player because it was so inefficient. But, I thought one could still use it with Mac computers. Are you guys having as much difficulty as I am? If not what are the solutions to running Adobe Flash Player? Thank you in advance for your information.

Install and use Adobe Digital Editions on a computer without internet access ?

Hello,
I have a pair of PCs, one of them, with Windows Vista, has never been connected to the internet since many years. It is used for word processing mostly. I didn't even bother to plug an ethernet cable inside or think about a Wifi USB key, in a way it's better that way, no useless distractions and no security threats.
I want to use that offline PC for work, and it would require to use Adobe Digital Editions on that machine. I downloaded the offline standalone installer from adobe.com without problems, however, apparently, Adobe only accepts us to use the program after we have activated it through internet access.
Does that mean there is simply no way out, and I can't use Digital Editions on my offline computer ?
Would you perhaps know a solution to this issue ?
Thank you VERY MUCH if you can help !
Kind regards

I don't think there is a way out.
You could use it for non-DRM books without authorizing, but there are much better options (such as the free Calibre) for that anyway. http://calibre-ebook.com/
If you make a temporary internet connection, then once authorized, you should not need internet access to read books you have got elsewhere and copied to it.

Adobe Flash Editor by default opens with Flash Professional CS4 when I have CS5 Installed ?

How can I change with which Flash Professional to open the fla files in Flash Builder? My Fla files are saved as CS5 version, they open by default with CS5 when I double click them, but still Flash Builder tries to open them with CS4 ??? I couldn't find any simple switch setting for that, anyone ?
Also is there a quick way to publish a specific fla file in Flash Builder which I want published just once not every time I save, or I have to open it in Flash Professional and publish it from there ?

I'm not certain - I haven't done that. But I found this link...
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flash/cs/using/WSFD77A256-0DE1-46c7-86FB-CC4A8AE2EAA6.html
Part way through the page, it mentions this:
To perform testing or debugging in Flash Pro with a file you are editing in Flash Builder 4:
From the Flash Builder development perspective, choose Run > Test Movie or Run > Debug Movie. Note that each menu item has a Flash Pro icon next to it. Once the SWF window or debug session is closed, focus will return to Flash Builder unless there are compiler errors in frame scripts inside the FLA file associated with the project. Information about all errors is sent to the Errors panel in Flash Builder.
To publish the FLA file associated with the current project in Flash Builder:
From the Flash Builder development perspective, choose Project > Publish Movie. Note the Flash Pro icon next to the menu command.
Good luck!

I need further instruction on how to install and use adobe flash.

I'm using Ubuntu, I think version 11.2, I think it's a form of linux.. Maybe 64 bit? I have no flashplayers that I know of, I've never installed any before. I use firefox only.
On the http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html "Flashplayer in 3 Seps" The box below step 1 is empty.
When I proceed with step 2, I remain totally clueless as to which version I should pick, so I picked .rpm for other lunux, clicked download, and a window opens asking me to either "open with" Archive Manager, or "Save File."
I have absolutely no idea which to proceed with. I've tried both and nothing has happend. The file shows up as a package in my downloads, which I open and nothing but a folder with a "." appears...
I appologise, but I'm not computer savvy at ALL, and everywhere I go, it seems unless I use Windows or MAC, I'm supposed to know what I'm doing, and I haven't got a clue.

I tried downloading the 64 bit ubuntu, but the window that comes up asks me to choose and application with which to open it. When I check the "Installation Instructions" on http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/release-note/readme-flash-player-linux.html I simply don't understand the first two steps... "Unpack the plugin tar.gz and copy the files to the appropriate location." I don't know where the appropriate location would be, I just.. don't get it. I don't even know how to "unpack" a file... I'm really sorry, I appreciate your help, but I'm so clueless to all of this. I don't know where to begin.
