Hello,
I'm sorry you're having trouble. I'm fairly certain this problem is occurring on the Air side and not on the Acrobat.com side of things. Please try reposting your question in the Air forums.
Good luck!

How do I get Adobe Air Desktop App to notify user that a URL text file has been updated?

How do I get an Adobe Air Desktop App to notify user that a URLRequest ".txt" file has been updated? via blinking system tray icon or something.
New to Air and need someone to point me in the right direction. I have been searching web for hours and probably not asking the question right.
I have a very simple Desktop App that just loads a text file from a web location into a dynamic text field at a set timer. it just repeats this action on the timer. right now every 5 minutes
What would the actionscript be to tell the Air App to look at the date or time stamp of the ".txt" file and notify user if its new?
Thanks

Adobe AIR desktop app with an embedded runtime

Hi,
Does an Adobe AIR desktop app with an embedded runtime (standalone/portable) that got published on Windows work on a Mac too?
Thanks

No, you need to compile a "bundle" with ADT on each platform. On Windows it creates a directory with an .exe and the AIR runtime. On OS X it creates a .app file.

What are the ways to integrate PayPal (or other monetizing service) into an Adobe AIR desktop app?

Hey all
I just finished publishing my AIR mobile app for iOS and Android, both featuring freemium style in-app purchasing/billing, for a single purpose only - opening the app to be full featured.
Now the client wants a desktop version of the app. I need a way to monetize the same way: the user wants all the features - they click a button in the app, pay the 2 dollars, and now all the features are accessible.
I think going out to PayPal, paying there and returning to the app would be best, but I cannot get the files I found here to work.
Do you have any suggestions of a workflow with examples, or a service with AS3 support?
thanx

Adobe CC Desktop App still has problems updating

Will Adobe EVER get this damn app working properly - it seems such a simple app yet there have been a ton of problems from day one. The latest with the update today - one of my machines closed explorer and left the desktop missing and my other PC updated CC and the app did not start again after the update. Really poor show CC desktop app team!

Hi again,
I also tried to download the CC Desktop installer. I launched it and the result was as follows :
Which is very informative, indeed. I logged off / logged on (Windows) and relaunched. This time the installation succeeded (version 1.7.1.418).
Actually, each time the CC Desktop app is updated, the only way to install is to download the installer. The auto-update feature of this app simply doesn't work.

CC desktop app keeps asking to update.

Hi all,
It's been since the release of photoshop 14.2.1 that the dektop app keeps on asking me to update Photoshop even though the software has been updated (succesfully) straight away.
Why is this happnening and how can I stop it?
I'm using a 2013 MBP retina with the latest mavericks.
Thank you everyone!

Hi Noel,
Thanks a lot for taking the time to answer.
The CC desktop app behaves like photoshop isnt updated yet, even though it is:
At first I just thought that the update process was unsuccesfull an so I kept on updating like it shows in the activity tab:
Photoshop is working just fine its just that is annoying having this notifications popping up with no reason.
Hope this gives a better idea of what's happening.

IMovie app keeps trying to update on my first gen iPad. Apple ID is the same on multiple devices. What's the fix?

If iMovie is incompatible with the iPad first gen, why does it keep asking me to update, then fail? It forces me to update all ther apps individually instead of allowing update all.

It just is.
iOS detects that there is an update, but the update is unable to be applied.
Your stuck in the loop of annoyance.
I'm in the same boat.
It's just the way it is.
There are fixes that do not involve jail breaking, but I cannot discuss them here.
I suggest you google around for a fix.

Unable to install Adobe Story desktop app on OS X

Hey everyone. I'm a recent owner of the Retina MacBook Pro and subscriber to Adobe Creative Cloud.
I'm having trouble installing the Adobe Story desktop app on OS X 10.8.2. When I go to the Story Plus web app and try to install the desktop app, the Air installer says something along the lines of "...the installer is damaged. Request a new installer from the developer."
Now on my previous MBP, this had never happened, and the app installed the first try. I've tried a multiple times to get this to work, but no avail. I'd really appreciate it if someone could help me get Adobe Story running as a desktop app.
Also, one more thing: attempting to log in to the Adobe support forums sends me into a redirect loop on my notebook. I ended up having to log into here on my iPad. Not sure if that's a bug or something on my side; thought it I should point it out.
Anyways, cheers and thanks to anyone who can help.

I see this link on the Adobe Story forum here http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1078357. Please post here in the Adobe Story forum and they will help resolve your issue.

How to launch an Air desktop app from a second Air desktop app?

Hi,
Is there a way to launch an Air desktop app from a second Air desktop app?
I'm using Air 4 with Flash CS 6 on Windows.
Thanks

According to Adobe documentation, AIR doesn't allow you to launch one application using another on desktop. The best bet that I could find at the moment would be to use the File.openWithDefaultAppilcation() function and open a file(like a .doc or .txt file) that has an AIR app set as the default application to use for X filetype. Unfortunately, launching app(.exe, .app, etc) files directly is not allowed. Probably for safety/security reasons. You might be able to get around that with a Native Extension though. Below is a link to the File.openWithDefaultApplication() method which includes a table of all the filetypes not allowed. Tried messing around with some ways around it, but the best I could do was open a new Finder window(testing on a Mac) and highlight the file. The code below assumes that both AIR apps are installed in the same app directory. Not sure how it would work on Windows but the result might be the same. For Mac, no special characters or anything was needed even though the app I was trying to open had spaces in the filename.
var filePath:String = "file://" + File.applicationDirectory.nativePath + "/App to highlight.app";
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(filePath));

Include Air ( desktop app ) inside Mobile app permited by Apple / Android?

Include Air ( desktop app ) inside Mobile app permited by apple / android?
This is my question....:
I need a "viewer" app run in a desktop machine... via p2p... ( done and working )
I will like to include it in my iOS / Android Release, an then by example move it to the documents folder.
Run iTunes and then copy the file from the shared document folder.
Is this permited by apple / android / adobe ?
Thanks....

just tracing some kind of tests I'm doing.
A couple of hours ago I left working 2 instances of my Application, leaving alone this computer: one instance is the Mac desktop version and the other one is the Web version. In this case both versions were running on the same computer (an iMac with OS X Mavericks):
1) the AIR/Mac version have been recompiled yesterday with the new AIR4(.0.0.1619 - AIR 3.8 is used to fall in a equivalent way - no changes)
2) the Web version have been compiled targeting FP 11.8 and it is running on Chrome browser with PepperFlash NOT disabled (which reports version MAC 13.0.0.80, the latest)
I left working both the Mac and the Web versions of the Application opened on the pc screen (= not minimized) but kept totally behind some Terminal/ssh windows (= not on OS focus and the system is not asked to update any screen area of the app for sure).
I came back after about 2 hours and I got the browser version connected&running (but it is not a rule) and I also found the AIR-based Mac version disconnected (uau, usually I found the app disconnected but with the screen freezed at last user look ->) which rapidly reconnects upon my click on the Apple dock icon (bring to front).
Why these different behaviours? I ask to myself.
The two versions of the software are TOTALLY the SAME application: except for the first Flash file (a 24kb swf file for the Web version and a 170kb dmg file for the Mac version), basically a platform-dependent loader, both versions loads the same remote swf modules. Of course t is AIR (or my first Flash file?).
I attach the source code of the Mac version of the [first file] AIR-based application at the following url:

Issues re-installing the Adobe CC Desktop app

For the last few months I was not able to log into my Adobe CC Desktop app. I would enter my credentials and the app would spin. then I would get a message saying that I was signed out. Today I decided to uninstall the app, restart my machine and then re-install the program. I have tried a few times, but the installer gets stuck right away and never moves. I am on a Mac running OSX 10.9.5 and I am not able to force quit the installation, so I am forced to restarted my machine. I have tried to install the app a few times, but get stuck in the same place every time.
Any ideas on what I can do?
Thanks
Matt

I tried solutions 1 and 2, but it still won't install. This is a work computer, so I don't have access to create new user account. I know my user account is not corrupt, because I just loaded some other software on it last week.
When I try to install the CC Desktop software it instantly stops and hangs. Here is a image of where it stops and hangs.

AIR desktop app installation prob

Gidday
I'm having trouble getting my AIR desktop app (AIR2.5 with a self-signed certificate) to do auto updates. I've had it updating fine in the past, but now get the following message:
"This application cannot be installed because this installer has been mis-configured. Please contact the application author for assistance."
Here's my method when I test the installation:
- publish a new AIR file using the SAME version number as the currently released app eg 1.017
- install it on my local machine
- publish a new AIR file with an incremented version number, in this case 1.018
- set my text file that the app checks online for updates to contain 1.018
- upload 1.018 AIR file to my site
- run the desktop app (version 1.017). It successfully detects there's a new version, and downloads it.
- it starts to install, and then I get the error
I've researched this all afternoon, and have found articles mainly talking about expired certificates. So I created a new certificate, and the problem still occurs.
Also, I've tried uninstalling my app from my local machine, but I still get the installation error.
Any ideas how to rectify this, so that I can continue using auto updating rather than force people to uninstall and download the new version for installation?
Thanks for your help.

Nevermind - the txt file that contains the version number and the url for the updater has the url for my live site, not my test one, so I changed it , and it installed fine.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,

Hi Justin,
ok, assuming that your external SWF tries to access some hosting application context (methods/properties) you could try:

                            applicationComplete="applicationCompleteHandler(event)">
     <fx:Script>
          <![CDATA[

               protected function applicationCompleteHandler(event:FlexEvent):void
                    loader = new URLLoader();
                    loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.BINARY;
                    var url:String = "MyApplication.swf";
                    loader.load(new URLRequest(url));
                    loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loaderCompleteHandler);

               protected function loaderCompleteHandler(event:Event):void
                    // allow cross-scripting in case loaded content tries to access
                    // that context properties or methods
                    var context:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
                    context.allowCodeImport = true;
                    swfLoader.loaderContext = context;
                    swfLoader.load(loader.data);

                    mx.controls.Alert.show(errorEvent.text, "ERROR");
                    cleanup();
               private function cleanup():void
                    loader.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loaderCompleteHandler);
                    loader.removeEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, loaderErrorHandler);
                    loader = null;
          ]]>
     </fx:Script>

See that doc for some details "allowCodeImport":

note: I'm not sure if that would 100% work. I don't know what Encore authored .swf really do, for that you could ask on Encore forum:
