IOS AIR apps do they need AIR installed on device?

Hello, I am developing an app for iOS using AIR for iOS in flash cs5.5. I know for android you have to download air on the deivce first to run the apps. I don't have an iphone or ipad to test my app on yet, but am wondering if a user who is downloading my app will have to download AIR and then my app or does flash cs5.5 somehow combine it when it publishes it?
Cheers

They don't embed the Flash runtime.
Flash CS5.5 compiles AIR directly into the app (called captive runtime) so your iOS device does not (and can not) install AIR separately and doesn't need it. There is no AIR for iOS to download.
Also you can embed a captive AIR runtime into Android apps as well if you choose. Simply specify you want to embed the captive AIR as you export (which by default for Android is disabled). Then even Android users will not need to download AIR to use your app.

i need "ministation air" app, but i can't install it with my accunt

If the app is not available in your country app store, then you cannot install the app.

How do I install purchased apps on ipad2? It says I have purchased the apps but they are not installed.

I have just purchased an ipad2 and purchased 2 apps. This is my first ipad. The ipad says I have purchased these apps but they are not installed. I don't know how to install them. Also I can only see them if I go to either the app store or the game center and click on purchased. I would like them to show up on screen that shows when I open the ipad but maybe that only happens when they are installed?

Did you purchase them directly on the iPad or on your computer's iTunes ? If on your iPad in the App Store app then have you checked to see if they are on a different homescreen by swiping the homescreen to the left ? If they are on a different screen, and there are spaces on the first homescreen then you can move them :
Touch and hold any icon for a couple of seconds until the icons jiggle .
Arrange the icons by dragging them (don't drag too quickly). You can't leave gaps between icons on a page
to move them to a different screen drag them (not too quickly) and then hold them so that they are overhanging the edge of the screen - after a couple of seconds or so the display should change to the next/previous screen (depending on which edge you are holding it) and you can then place the icon.
Press the Home button to save your arrangement.
If you downloaded them on your computer then you can either connect your iPad to your computer and sync them across, or go into the App Store app on the iPad and re-download them via the Purchased tab (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519)
You can download a copy of the iPad manual from here http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad

Is there no way to direct an AIR app's audio to different audio output devices?

I'm needing to make a couple of our AIR apps select certain audio devices to send their audio output to, and last year, somebody mentioned possibly using native extensions to do this. I had to start working on other things for a while, but I've come back to this (for the moment), and I've basically learned how to create native extensions.
But so far, they don't seem to provide me any special access to anything going on under the hood of an AIR app. When you stream live audio in through RTMP or RTMFP, the details of the audio are hidden from you. There doesn't appear to be any place where you can actually access the audio bytes that are being sent over the wire. You can specify a certain SoundTransform object for the NetStream to use, but that class is final and a vanilla Flash construct, so even if it may have a way to access the audio bytes, they're not acessible at all.
It really looks like, when a NetStream object starts streaming in live audio, there is no way under the sun to access the audio bytes and direct them to a certain audio output device, with or without extensions. Is this so? It would be unfortunate if Adobe didn't allow this, even through native extensions. Thanks.

Couple quick thoughts..
Limits are important. There's a large amount of work done to keep a clear separation between a users decision and a developers decision. For instance, you can't change a users default audio output because that clearly violates a users decision. That said, here's a whole mess of people debating the issue and actually eventually an undocumented COM API you can find that will actually let you do it in Vista/Win7 (but not 8), however don't expect that to be a 'good thing to do':
http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/9ebd7ad6-a460-4a28-9de9-2af63fd4a13e/programatica lly-setting-the-default-playback-device-and-recording-device?forum=windowspro-audiodevelop ment
You might want to get a beverage before reading that.
Aside that, RTMP is secured, which is why you can't gain access to the bytes. The entire purpose of it is to assure media developers that their media can't easily be copied/stolen. Adobe doesn't document their method of securing streams but they do publish the RTMP specification. It's entirely possible for you to create your own RTMP server and encryption method while delivering a RTMP stream to custom client that you code yourself which can read the stream. Here's the spec:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/rtmp.html
So I'd say it would be unfortunate if Adobe did give you access to the bytes. You might as well just hand users a mp3 of whatever song is playing because they would steal media left and right.
That isn't to say you can't use a multitude of ways of getting the data going across the default output device. Plenty of apps (fraps/etc) capture video and mixed audio streams. But Adobe isn't going to give you the keys to the kingdom and let you decrypt their protected media protocol.

AIR App now crashes with AIR 15 runtime (did not crash with earlier versions of AIR)

Hi,
We've noticed our AIR application now crashes when the AIR 15 (the latest version available from Adobe) runtime is installed. This did not happen with earlier versions of AIR. The app does not crash when I debug in Flash Builder so I cannot identify the exact issue. The app will crash EVERY time when running the .exe on Windows. The crash happens on Windows XP and Windows 7. The app does not crash on OS X.
The message in Event Viewer says:

Please let me know if you'd like any additional information. This is such a bummer that an AIR update renders our app useless in Windows.
Thank you.

I'm sorry this is happening. Could you please open a new bug report on this over at bugbase.adobe.com? When adding the bug, please include sample code or an application so we can quickly test this out internally.

Can I update my Android AIR app with a non-AIR app?

A few years ago I published an Android app using Adobe AIR. Now I've created a new version of the app with a different technology (HaxeFlixel / OpenFL) which uses native C++ code.
The certificate I used for the AIR version is in "p12" format, and it seems that I need to use "jks" format. I tried using a p12 to jks converter I found online, which seemed to work, but when I try to submit the app I get an error saying that the certificates don't match.
Any suggestions on how I can update the app with a non-AIR app? Is it possible? Thanks in advance.

I'm still having trouble with this, I asked in the OpenFL forums but nobody responded.
I converted the p12 file to JKS from the site you suggested (I think I've actually tried it before), and the file was created successfully, the apk compiled fine with the JKS file, but when I try to update the app for Google Play it says "Upload failed
You uploaded an APK that is signed with a different certificate to your previous APKs. You must use the same certificate. Your existing APKs are signed with the certificate(s) with fingerprint(s):"
When I try to sign with the original p12 file, I get the error "Invalid keystore format"
I noticed that for the AIR app, I also had a file called SelfSigned.pfx, which I think was used to create the p12 certificate? Can this have something to do with the problem? I even tried using this pfx file to sign the app, which didn't work either.

Convert HTML/javascript AIR app to flex-based AIR app?

Hi all,
I've already built an AIR app using HTML/javascript that I
would like to monetize.
I would like to use O2app's E-Commerce framework, which right
now only supports Flex-created AIR apps.
My question: Is there a simple way to "convert" an
HTML/javascript AIR app to Flex 3 format? I'd rather not have to
rebuild the app from scratch in Flex 3 if I don't have to. :)
Thanks,
Al

Hi,
There's no simple way to convert an HTML AIR app to flex.
But it is possible to create HTML Root windows from a Flex
AIR App. By root window, I mean the same kind of window that is
launched when you launch an HTML AIR App.
For more info, look at the HTMLLoader.createRootWindow()
call. (This will be available from a Flex AIR app as well)

When will ios.7 be on ipod 4g. i cant download apps because they need ios.7

I have a ipod 4g and i try to download apps like ibooks i cant because i dont have ios.7 and it really bugs me and i was wondering if itunes could and when update iphone 3 and ipods to ios.7 please do it ASAP

Sad to say your out of luck and iOS 7 won't come to iPod 4 ever because iOS 7 require at least 512mb of RAM where the iPod 4 only has 256mb of RAM. Think about upgrading to a iPod 5 as it will also support iOS 8 and it about 2x+ faster than the iPod 4 so games will run better. It also has features like a better camera, etc.
Sincerely, Rob

IOS 8: apps and space problems after install

Anyone have this problem and maybe a solution? I had to uninstall a lot of downloaded apps in order to install iOS 8. I then reinstalled some apps back, not all, but now says I have zero space to take even one pic. Also, four of the apps I did reinstall, including YouTube, Facebook and Google Maps are grayed out. Can't use them. I deleted a lot of pics, including streaming and turned that option off. Apple, my dear, why don't these apps work? And why can't I take a pic? I have iCloud space, am I missing something? Thanks in advance ~

Yes! I've seen that problem circulating. Now I can return the favor: Users can do their part to save battery life by turning off unwanted Notifications (Settings > Notifications), switching off Location Services (Settings>Privacy>Location Services), disabling Background App Refresh (Settings > General > Background App Refresh), and stopping their devices from constantly searching for data via Fetch New Data (Settings > Mail > Contacts > Calendars).
Also it recharges faster in airplane mode..
Maybe that might help until they address the issue ~

Apps say they need newer version....

Hi,
Real Newbie here ... bought my iphone 3G yesterday and all my app downloads keep saying they can't sync because I need a newer version.. help? please!!!

I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
Identifying iPod models
iPod touch (3rd generation)
iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

Why does my Adobe AIR app freezes on Ipad Air ?

I released this free game just in time for Easter weekend and then found out through a friend that it freezes on an iPad Air. It works great on iphone 4, 5, ipad mini, ipad 2, etc and I have retina disabled for ipads.
Here's a link:
https://itunes.apple.com/app/id854866033?mt=8
I published from Flash Pro CC with AIR 4.0.0.1628

I can suggest you firstly find somewhere identical iPad and test on it. Adobe Flash Runtime team pretty busy So reporting "bugs" that actually user failure - it's not good looking on nowdays So please be sure that your bug - it's a bug and not your mistake.
I strongly suggest to use Adobe Scout that can help to identify weak places in your sourcecode. 99% "Flash/Air bug" - it's developer bug and not runtime.
If you need to check with Adobe Air + Adobe Scout - you can contact me via skype chat therabbitwindfall and I can help you for free to determinate weak places. And only than you can understang what to change Sure I know some performance drops between devices. But 99 from 100 situations can be solved by fixing user code and not Runtime

No!
i wonder what an apple technician do diferent, to startup the osx installation from dvd and erase/format the disk...
You will need your original Leo install DVD to return to Leo. Before doing so, I would make a bootable clone of my internal boot volume on an external drive for purposes of backup, migration, and fail-safe--even if you have a TM backup.
Make clone using Disk Utility (DU):
1. Start up from your Snow install DVD by holding down C when starting up.
2. Choose your language and use the menus at the top of the next screen to start DU.
3. Start DU;
4. Drag your internal volume to the source box;
5. Drag your external partition (or volume) to the destination box;
6. Choose Erase Destination (if you are forced to do so to restore); and
7. Click restore.
It will take an hour, more or less. Test your clone afterward to make sure you can boot from it.
Erase and install using Disk Utility (DU):
1. Start up from your Snow install DVD by holding down C when starting up.
2. Choose your language and use the menus at the top of the next screen to start DU. Use DU to produce a clean install by erasing your drive Mac extended (journaled). Quit DU, and continue your installation.
3. At the end of your installation use Setup Assistant (which will start automatically), to migrate your users, settings, data, and apps from your clone to your new installation.
4. Repair permissions when you have completed all installations.

Can't update iPhoto and Kindle apps because they need the previous owners Apple ID

I was recently given a Mac Pro (which I absolutely LOVE). iphoto and Kindle both need to be updated however because they are under the previous owners Apple ID I have no idea how to do it w/out contacting the previous owner?

The apps are licensed for only computers owned by the previous owner. You should delete them from your computer. Find each app in Launch Pad, click and hold on it until it wiggles and an "X" appears next to it, then click the "X".
You can then purchase any you need with your account. Kindle is free, iPhoto is only $14.99

Android AIR app stops unexpectedly during debugging/running on device

FlashBuilder 4.5.1, AIR 2.6, device: HTC Wildfire S. The problem occurs everytime I try run a mobile app- just the Android error view. Please help

Hi,
go first here and do check-list:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/air/build/WS144092a96ffef7cc16ddeea2126bb46b82f-8000.html
it lists supported/non-supported/check-at-runtime features - as you could use a feature that is not supported at your device (application could work in Air/Flash Builder device emulator though)
What is happening in your application when it starts? Does it load video/audio or does request to local or remote content?
regards,
Peter
