Installing App from website

I noticed that you can install an app from a website (.swf file) and I've read the documentation and looked at the distribution tutorial.
However, is there any way to remove the "save" button on the install window?
For example, if I want the only option to be installation from the website. I don't want anyone downloading the actual app.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi, I will try to answer your question because I just facing similar problem (about installing and launching air app) and I can solve it.
From what I have see, the save button on installing windows show because the application you want to install have been installed on your computer.
to solve this, you should try to get the application status. Is it installed, or not installed.
if it is installed, you should do launchapplication.
hope it help. if you need more help, just pm me and I will give you my source code in this discussion.

I downloaded a widget from apple and was unable to open it because a window appeared telling me that the developer was unidentified. How do I change the security preferences that allow me to only install apps from the Mac App Store?

Installing apps from non-admin account

I read an earlier post that installing apps from a non-admin account is a bad idea because SL applies the wrong permissions. I normally install from a non-admin account.... I don't see that the permissions on stuff I've installed are any different from apps that came with SL. Most everything is drwxr-xr-x. Was this fixed, or am I missing the problem.

I didn't say anything about a user having write access permission, I was talking about read
permissions. All apps installed in the /Applications directory should have group permissions
set to admin or wheel (depending on the type of app), so the system can read them without
problems. That's the Unix way.
I completely disagee. The system already has read permission to all applications in the /Applications folder. It doesn't matter what the group privilege is set to. The "other" permissions are set to read only. System (root) can read it regardless. If you can show me an Apple tech article that says that apps installed in the /Applications folder should have their group privilege changed to "admin" or "wheel" then I would gladly take that back.
+"Leopard does not put any ACLs on anything installed in the /Applications folder"+
That's right, it doesn't normally, but if it finds an app that it does not have permission
to read, it will assign an ACE(s) to it so that it can access it.
I just tested that in 10.5.8, and it does not happen as you say. I can't try it in 10.6. I'd appreciate if you could provide a specific example where you can make this happen.
Besides, all users, by default, have read only access to all applications. Unless a user specifically changes permissions on an app to deny read access to everyone, then this isn't an issue.

I know what ACLs are and how they work. I have read through those and cannot find in any of those threads anything about what you had been talking about.
+"That is also false. Root rights are granted by the user entering the admin username+

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963
"Application installers, Applications folder
A third-party application installer incorrectly sets permissions on the files it installs,
or even the entire Applications folder. Symptoms of the Application folder's permissions
being set incorrectly include applications appearing in the dock as question marks, and/or
not being able to connect to the Internet. It is also possible that software installed while
logged in as one user will be inaccessible when logged in as another. To avoid this, make sure
you are logged in with your normal user account when installing software that you wish to use
with that account."
That has to do with third party installer apps that developers have not written properly to conform to OS X standards. It isn't an issue with applications that install by drag-and-drop. It sounds to me like you have looked at the permissions that Apple has put on its own apps and jumped to the conclusion that third party apps won't work unless they have the exact same permissions applied to them. That simply isn't true.
"Software access=user access
Most applications executed by a user only have access to the files that the user has access to.
Backup software, for example, may not back up Mac OS X system files that have root ownership."
Utilities, especially disk utilities, are to be installed in the /Applications/Utilities folder, for reasons
stated above.
No. That is completely wrong. Like I said earlier, an application is given root permission by user authentication. It matters not one little bit what the application's enclosing folder is. I personally have no third party apps in /Applications/Utilities; just what Apple puts there as part of a standard OS X installation.

Have you even read those? I suggest that you do; because most of what you have written about how file/folder/application permissions in OS X is completely wrong.

With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

Installing Apps from Itunes to Iphone.,....

Hi all,
I cannot seem to find how to install Apps from itunes to my iphone. I needed a new iphone, and when i got it the songs installed and sync'd fine.
The Apps however did not.
You cannot drag and drop the Apps from the Itunes store to the iphone. Syning them doesn't send them across. I have updated them all within itunes to the latest versions.
So someone please put me out of my misery and let me know how you can do it?!
TIA

Select your phone in the left column, under devices. Select "Applications" at the top of the main window.
The list will appear below with a check box to select the apps you want synced. When your selections are complete, click the "Apply" button at the bottom right of the window.

When trying to install apps from app store it does not prompt an apple id and after 15 minutes says "cannot connect to itunes store"

When trying to install apps from app store it does not prompt an apple id and after 15 minutes says "cannot connect to itunes store".

Your Apple ID may be greyed out because of restrictions. Settings>General>Restrictions>Allowed Changes>Accounts. If you set that restriction, your ID will be greyed out. Nobody can make changes to the account without entering the passcode to change disable the restriction.
Maybe something in here will help, even though this is not exactly what you are experiencing.

In that case is it possible to have some friend in Japan to install apps from Japan Apps Store and later transfer to my iPhone?

My friend had this problem and he just went into his payment information to make sure it was accurate and up to date. He didn't even change anything, only reentered his security code. He then downloaded the app successfully. Thought that might help you.

I can not update my installed apps from the App Store Update page. I can individually update from the App Store Purchased page. I tried a soft reset but still unable. Any suggestions?

You are doing all that you cn do right now other than to update the apps in iTunes on your computer and sync them to the iPad.
There has been a problem with the App Store updates tab for a few days now and we are all waiting for Apple to fix it.
Look at all of the discussions on the iPad forum that are talking about this right now.
