Loving Air 3 and the Captive Runtime

I just wanted to pass on a huge kudos to the Air team.  We just released our first product (a free iOS Web Simulator for Windows) built using Air 3 and the captive runtime (release version).  Tons of downloads, and not one singe report of an installation issue.  I know the captive runtime isn't a panacea, but being able to whip out a simple install script, and an exe/app with no dependenices and some determinism regarding the runtime is very nice indeed for our use case.
I made sure to put a "Built with Air 3" link on our download page too

Really looking forward to Flex 4.6 as well, good time to be an Adobe dev!
Thanks again.

  • AIR 4.0 captive runtime won't run: "requires a version of Adobe AIR" alert

    I'm creating an AIR captive runtime application, and it won't run on a target Windows* machine. It displays the following alert instead:
    This application requires a version of Adobe AIR which cannot be found. Please download the latest version of this runtime from http://www.adobe.com/go/getair, or contact the application author for an updated version.
    How can I package the captive runtime differently so it won't display this message? The application is a pure ActionScript app compiled with the adt binary from the standalone SDK (this is not Flex).
    In addition, I'm disturbed that a captive runtime AIR application pings Adobe in any way. I am seeing occasional pings to an adobe site upon launch of the app (something like airdownload2.adobe.com, if I remember correctly). No I'm not using any service calls in my app at this point in development, it's very simple, and should not be pinging the net at all. Why is this happening? I need to disable this too.
    * Problem occurring only on a particular Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit machine. Unfortunately, this is the end client's machine so I can't tinker with it.

    Do you have access to the problematic machine? If so, maybe you could try to install Sysinternal's Process Monitor http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645
    Run the tool, create filter to see just events containing your app name and try to find in the result any issue... you could also compare the log with same log from not problematic machine or with app made with older SDK which was working.
    That's all what I can do... it's a shame that nobody from Adobe is interested yet... maybe you could also submit a bug.

  • What are the major differences between the air and the pro

    what are the major differences between the air and the pro?

    In a nutshell, the Air is a lightened, more compact system than the 13" Pro counterpart. The Air loses some hardware features to accommodate the physical downsizing.
    No FireWire port
    No built-in optical drive
    A lesser performing CPU to retain battery charge life, and adequate cooling.
    No Ethernet port
    No Kensington lock slot
    The Air does have a superior native resolution at 1440 x 900, and a standard SSD that does make up alot of the speed differential, and then some. Of course, the 13" Pro can be optionally configured with an SSD.
    You buy the Air if the physical size an weight savings are demonstrably more important than the features lost.

    Log into the app store using the Apple ID you used to set your computer up. Look under purchases. If it is not there you may need to accept it or to unhide it

    What version of OS X are you using? If Yosemite, you need to update to 10.10.1 or higher.
    In any case, start by going to the editor preferences>general, clicking this button and restarting the editor:

    The only way to sync Notes is through a mail server. If you don't want to use iCloud, you'll have to use some other mail account, or run your own mail server under OS X Server. The latter is a job for advanced users only.

  • I had an iPAD 4.  Since I updated to IOS 7 it began to freeze up.  I now have the iPad Air and the same thing happens.  I'd like some advice because apple's technical service has no idea.

    Technical service in Spain is useless.  They told me to re-install everything again as when it's brand new, application by application to see which one is failing.  I have 150 applications.
    If they continue in this direction they will end up like Palm
    You can tell Steve Jobs is no longer in charge.
    I'm thinking of moving to Samsung.

    If this problem continued across an iPad with Retina to an iPad Air it is almost definite it is one of your apps causing the problem. Run it for a day with no apps loaded on it, if it doesn't freeze then one of your apps that has not been updated is causing the issue. And the Technical Service in Spain gave you correct information.
    It was no different when Mr. Jobs was still in charge (I was around for iOS 3.0) and it is no different on a Surface or a Note.

  • Pros and cons of the macbook air and the macbook pro

    Hi!
    This coming year, my younger daugter will go to high school and need a macbook because she is dyslectic. I want to know which one between the macbook air and the macbook pro will be the best for her. Thanks for your answer.

    At least according to their web site, Whitesmoke Executive is not compatible with the Mac operating system.
    Word Q does have a Mac version. http://www.goqsoftware.com/products/
    I was unable to figure out what software package you meant by Antidote. There are several.
    Word, of course, is part of MS Office, and they make a Mac OS version. I use Office 2011 daily.
    None of these products are likely to tax the hardware of either of the computers you mention at all. The computer will be spending most of its time waiting for your daughter to do something.
    Note - my neice just bought a MacBook Air 11". She is entering the University of South Carolina in the fall and is absolutely thrilled with the computer.

  • Recently bought a macbook air and the camera doesnt work

    Its super frustrating.
    It did work once with skype, but after i tried using photobooth it stopped working completely and now it doesnt work on skype, googlehangouts and neither, of course, on photobooth. The computer is quite new and i attempted using the camera only a few times.
    Any idea on what this might be?
    Maybe something with updates?

    iSight camera failure after OS X 10.9 Mavericks update might resolve your trouble.
    If not, contact the retailer who sold you the new Mac ASAP.  It may need replacement or repair. 
    If you bought directly from Apple on-line, you can Contact Apple's MacBook Air Support or an Apple Authorized Service Provider for help.
