NavigateToURL in Flash built iOS app?

So I attempted to bind a PDF to my app, and added code to link to a PDf to no avail.
Is there a way to launch a PDF from a Flash built iPhone app?
A seconday question is a shell that load in external SWFs, is there a way to bind those in the app so that they work on the device?
Thanks!

Try with stagewebview class to load the pdf.

Adobe Air + Box2D.swc = TypeError: Error #1009 // New way to handle .swc files in Flash for iOS Apps?

Hi,
I need your help please - I have to update one of my iOS Apps. In this App I use Box2d for a simple maze game (it's an app for kids). When I publish & test this game on my Mac it works fine. I can drag my Hero (fish) through this Maze and all collision detections, gravity etc. work perfect.
When I test it on my iPad it doesn't work. The device debugger shows this error message:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

I guess "CLibInit" should come from the .swc file.
The thing is:
I didn't change anything in this maze game - it seems this has to do something with the new Flash and/or Adobe Air version. Box2D.swc file is included:
It always worked like this - and it works when testing it on my Mac - but it is no longer working on my current system.
So I started my Mac from an older system (10.9.5 on an external HD) and published the App from Flash CS6 and Adobe Air 13.0 - then it suddenly worked on my iPad as before. I was able to tap an the fish and drag it arround.
The same project / app published from my current OS X 10.10 + Flash CC 2014 + Adobe Air 15.0.0.302 is not working. I always receive this Error Message - I can not drag the fish - nothing happens. And I have no idea why this happens and what else I could do. I searched the whole day for a solution but didn't find anything.
So did anything change by the way Flash and/or Air handles .swc files? Is there an other way to include: import cmodule.Box2D.* / CLibInit ?
Please - if anyone has a clue - please let me know!!
Best regards
Jan

Update:
There is also an Android Version of this App. I just published and tested a new version of it on my kindle fire & Samsung Galaxy Tab 2. On both Tablets the maze works perfect. I'm able to drag the fish around etc.
Then I published this Android Version for iOS and tested it on my iPad. Again I'm getting the Error message:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

...and the fish is stuck - I can't drag it - nothing happens. So this error only occurs when I publish the App for iOS - as an .ipa. Did anything change in the way Air handles .swc files?
I'm totally confused
If anybody has an idea what I could try - PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!

Video in Flash-Created iOS app

Is it possible?
I've tried importing the video, or embedding the video. I have two that will be included. This app is for a internal only application (not for the app store). Size isn't really an issue.
Embedding the video works, but the audio gets out of sync, and is pretty unusable.
Does anyone have a possible solution to this?
Thanks in advance!

I'm not familiar with stagevideo. I'm going to look into it more.
The app was created with Flash CS6. The video (FLV) was embedded in the timeline. Flash actually warns me when doing this that the audio will likely go out of sync for longer videos. Unfortunately they are fairly long. It also tends to make the app act a little strange. For instance, the second video would just stop towards the later part of the video.
I realize embedding these videos isn't the best solution, so finding a different method would be great. But the problem is that the videos have to be included with the app, since the users won't have an internet connnection when using it.
I could get you a copy of the app, but it's pretty large with the embedded videos...
For the time being, I've simply removed the audio from the videos. This is a temporary solution as the app will be used at tradeshows where visitors likely won't be able to hear them anyway.
Thanks for the help!

Can you use video within an flash created ios app

Was trying to add a video element to an interactive app that is to be deployed to the iPad. However the video isn't showing up.
I add the video folder to the included file list. The video appears encoded properly because i can add it to the video library on the ipad and it plays fine.
Does video work with the packager?

Got my answer. Currently Sorenson and VP6 only work.

Google Analytics in my Flash CS5.5 iOS app?

I searched the forums but found nothing.
I was wondering if it's possible to have tracking inside of my flash built iPhone app. I've done it many times in my flash web content, so I'm just wondering if anybody has implemented any sort of advanced tracking into their iOS apps built in Flash.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Colin,
Just an update... It looks like we finally got this up and running. Two important notes for anyone following in our footsteps...
1) It appears that the Analytics for Flash does not work with a "Mobile App" account, it only seems to work with a "Web site" account. When creating the new account to track your AIR app created in Flash, create the standard "Web site" account. When asked for a URL, even though a mobile app isn't a web page, you need to put something in that field, so enter a URL that links to something you've created. It doesn't seem to need to actually be related to the app you're trying to track, I think they just need to confirm that a URL exists.
2) It appears that it takes several hours (24 hours perhaps?) after creating the analytics account for data to start showing up. When I came back to this after the weekend, none of the tests I did within the first few hours of the account's existance ever showed up, not in Real-Time, nor in any of the other views. But, to my delight, Real-Time data began appearing on Monday, so it must take some time to propegate before the account starts showing activity.
Colin, I can't thank you enough for your patience and willingness to see me through trying to get this up and running. It really is a very simple process if you take note of the two points above, but short of knowing that, it was very frustrating. So thank you ever so much for being such a valuable resource to this community!

Flash CS 6 - Install iOS app on iPhone?

Hi,
I would like to test an Air built iOS app on my iPhone.
I'm using Flash CS6 and AIR SDK 16 on Windows 8.1. and I'm getting the error "Unable to enumerate devices" after publishing my app.
What does that mean and how to fix?
(I have the latest version of iTunes installed)

This really bodes well for my question. Which was very similar. If I find a solution I will post it here for you also.

Hey you all, I have recently updated me iPhone 5 to iOS 7.1 and I checked my reminders built in app, and it seems like everything I had in there was lost. I have tried many things, but none seems to work. I can no longer add in any remainders.

Have you failed to regularly backup the device to iTunes or iCloud? If so, the data is gone.
If there are backups, restore the most current one from prior to the data disappearing.

I hate how apple leaves iPod touch 4g and iPhone 4 in the dark and basically force us to upgrade to newer devices. Apple could of done better with the update and needs to resolve these issues.

Try:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

How to restore a deleted built-in app (Maps)? App disappeared: IOS 4 & 3GS

Does anyone know how to restore a deleted built-in app?
In my case the Maps app disappeared. According to other posts in this forum you cannot delete a built-in app such as Maps but it has happened on my iPhone 3GS.
I'm running IOS 4.
Morrow

If you are unable to locate the Maps app you can still access it from the Spotlight search window. Just type in Maps, look for the familiar interstate 280 icon, tap there and you will enter the Maps app. This will work for you until you can locate the icon, which hopefully you will.

How do I localize Flash CS5.5 iOS app to one language

What method or process do I use to set an iOS app to only one language?
I recently had an iPad app written in Flash CS5.5 approved at the iTunes app store. I noticed at the iTunes store, it indicates that my app is localized in 14 different languages. I never set this up; it seems that there is a process that automatically adds several default language localizations to the ipa binary when the file is published. I tried the strings panel, used a var to set the localID, went into the SDK for flex and flash builder and deleted the locales (could not find anything similar for Flash itself), but none of this seems to prevent Flash from adding the language defaults. I have found many examples on how to localize my app for several languages, but nothing on how to set it to only one.
Thanks much, Jon

Well, I followed the iOS language list in iTunes thread in this forum and was able to get rid of them all. I have to say that not any single reply in the thread was exactly right. It took a combination of Saumitra Bhave's and spinlight's replies and mass of trial and error to get it all to work. Even the App loader utility came up as obsolete! I have uploaded the updated binary to Apple and am awaiting their approval. The biggest issue is the placement of and actual coding in the entitlements plist; spinlight had the right idea, but, at least in my case, was coded out a bit different. Also, it was not exactly apparent that you had to use the teminal untility to recodesign the app after tearing it apart. Thank the heavens I have a least a basic understanding of how things work on the Mac and was able to puzzle it out. If Apple approves the app and all things look good, I will follow up here with what I did. Of course, if Adobe would kill this bug with a giant can of bug spray, this crazy work around wouldn't be needed...
Thanks much, Jon

"no access to the digital certificate" - Trying to export my first iOS app from Flash - Help please

Hello
I'm trying to export my first iOS app from flash to my desktop / on the device (Flash Pro CC, Iphone5)
I followed the instructions on the adobe website to build an air app for iOS but on the last step it
doesn't export the app.
What I've done so far:
- Apple developer account
- creating the certificate + convert it to .p12
- app ID / Name etc.
- creating the provisioning profile from apple
- iOS Air app in flash (Only Text "Hello world" with a tween)
Now i have to load the certificates into Flash & enter a password (is it the password that
i entered in the certificate or from my developer account/ Apple ID password? Both didn't work at the end)
When i klick on publish in the last step than it loads a while but then i get the Error:
"no access to the digital certificate"
What is wrong? Can you help me please.

Also, I should say, when I go into my phone on the computer and try to install an app, I get this message:
Unable to start operation. Installer is already in use.
Any ideas

Need Help testing iOS app created in Flash Pro Cs5.5

I've followed several instructions on how to develop a simple iOS app. I've managed to go all the way through and Publish + create the .ipa. I'm able to then add the file to my iTunes library, but when I then try to add it to my iPod Touch (2nd Generation) I get the following error:
The app "XXXXXX" was not installed on the iPod "XXXXX's Ipod" because it is not compatible with this iPod.
I've even tried it with a simple "Hello World!" app but I get the same error.
I'm using Flash Pro Cs5.5 on a Windows PC.
Any suggestions?

I'm having the exact same problem with my iphone 3G. I tried publishing the exact same simple flash app to my iphone, which I already previously tested succesfully, after having downloaded flash 5.5, and now I get the following message (which, I believe, is identical to yours kinant87) :
"The app "Main" was not installed on the iPhone "Norgaard" because it is not compatible with this iPhone."
I was trying to make another small app, when I got this problem, which is why I went back to re-test the app I knew was working!
I've reinstalled all my apple certificates, and also tried using flash builder 4.5, with the same result.
I also have not jail broken my phone, and was starting to think perhaps the iPhone 3G was no longer supported?

Need help with languages issue in iOS app created in Flash Pro CS5.5

Hello all,
I'm using Flash Pro CS5.5 on a Mac running Snow Leopard to create an iOS app by publishing with 'AIR for iOS' from inside Flash Pro. Everything works great except after I submit my app to the Apple App Store and it is approved, the App Store listing claims that the app is available in a ton of different languages including English, German, Chinese, Italian, Spanish, etc. Since this app is a word game and all the words are in English, this is a pretty significant issue.
If I view the binary details for the app in iTunes Connect, it shows that localizations are active for all of the different languages. This information is read from the .ipa file that is submitted.
If I unzip the .ipa file, I can see that folders have been created for all of the localizations (i.e. en.lproj, es.lproj, fr.lproj, etc.). If I delete any of those folders, the .ipa will give me a 'resources modified' error at install.
I have also tried setting the plist attribute 'CFBundleLocalizations' to 'English' by editing the 'app.xml'. I have verified that the attribute has been changed correctly but it does not solve the issue. All of the localizations are still active.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Flash CC crashes after publishing iOS app + publish settings are not being saved to file

I have two issues:
1. Flash CC crashes every time I publish an iOS app
2. My Publish Settings are not being saved
1. Flash CC crashes every time I publish an iOS app
Since yesterday Flash CC keeps crashing right after I publish an iOS app. The app is published correctly though. I tried everything from restarting my MAC, reinstalling Flash, removing the folder "Flash CC 2014" inside Application Support/Adobe. But all this did not work.
2. My Publish Settings are not being saved
Since the first day I installed Flash CC, it did not save my publish settings along with the .fla-file. I never had this issue with Flash CS 5.5. This was not a very big issue, but now every time I publish an app and Flash CC crashes I have to fill in all the publish settings manually. Now I'm getting frustrated. Even saving my settings as a preset, storing it inside a folder and importing it again, won't help. Then I will get the message: "Import failed: invalid profile file."
Can please anyone help me with these issues? It is quite time consuming to continuously enter the settings manually after every crash.
Thanks!

Developing iOS apps with Flash Guide.

Hello,
Does anybody know any good guide or tutorial for build iOS apps in flash?
I had done an application which is in "Waiting for review", but I made it lineal, without packages or clases, because I don't know them, so i used pure ActionScript in a single FLA.
I don't know what people can say when they mention AIR ... I don't have that? (or I do)?)
I need to make an app that is basically a book, so I need smooth paging and scrolling technique
Sorry if it's too much, any help will be apreciatte
Best Regards
