Open letter to Adrian Ludwig and others involved in the Open Screen Project

Since Microsoft decided to abandon the Windows Mobile 6.5 platform, Adobe shifted it's focus toward Windows Phone 7. As evident from Adrian Ludwig's video, some progress has been made. The video demonstrated Flash on the HTC Leo and Nexus One handsets. It appears that this work on winmo 6.5 will now be abandoned as Adobe is forced to shift it's focus on Windows Phone 7 and of course the Android as well.
Is there any way  that the work that has already be done doesn't simly become abandoned? Can it be distributed to the developer comunity to be worked on, over at the XDA forums, for example? Thanks you.

Hello flash4mobile
Actually Microsoft has not abandoned WinMob6.5. They have repositioned it as a platform for corporate users and there are millions of handsets shipping with it right now. It's a shame that Adobe has given up on its efforts to get Flash on this platform. Granted, business users may not be the ideal target for Flash content.
On the other hand, the shiny new Windows Phone 7 series that was shown at Mobile World Congress and at MIX10 earlier this year is targeted at consumers. It has Silverlight at the core of its slick UI.
I think it makes a lot of sense to have Flash Player in the browser on these consumer devices, however they won't be out until the holiday season this year I guess. Maybe Adobe don't want to stretch their resources too thin and are targetting only the most recent consumer-oriented devices.
I would be curious to know whether there are plans to bring AIR to WP7 too?
My bet is that Microsoft won't let that happen since the "native" app development environment for WP7 is actually Silverlight / .NET ...
Adobeans: any input ?

  • For iTunes Match, how come some songs "match" on an album and other songs on the same album "upload" without matching?

    For iTunes Match, how come some songs "match" on an album and other songs on the same album "upload" without matching?  All songs are available on iTunes.  I don't get it!  Any way to manually match songs that iTunes apparently can't match?  I have hundreds in this unmatched state.

    Shazam has NO problem determining what these songs are. Maybe Apple needs to consider licensing their technology as it seems MUCH more accurate than what they are doing.
    You aren't comparing like with like.
    The main task that Shazam has is to identify the name or a track and the artist. I believe that it suggests the album as well, but if it gets that wrong then it doesn't really matter too much.
    With iTunes Match, getting the album (i.e. identifying which version it is) is much more important. If it gets that wrong then it breaks up the flow of an album. This makes the task that match has very much harder.
    In fact, there is a strong argument to say that currently the problem iTunes has is that it is matching too many songs, resulting in matches from different albums.
    I'm sure that match is not struggling to identify whether it has a song or not, but whether it has the correct version of a song. When you introduce different masterings into the process then, depending on the thresholds set, it is probably correct in concluding that it hasn't got a particular version, even if you think it has.
    The solution would appear to me to be a tweaking of the matching thresholds along with the ability to force an upload, but we just don't know what restrictions they have (remember that if Shazam gets it wrong the it doesn't present you with a copy of a new track that you didn't have previously). It is almost certainly not just a case of improving their technology.

    Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

    Yes you can. In iPhoto create a Album with the photos you want in it. You can drag them from your Events folder. In iTunes with your iPad connected go to Photos by cliking on your iPad. You can then select the album or events you want.

    Trying to move my iTunes Music and other media from the main drive on my pc to an external hard drive but iTunes is not recognizing the new file location?  Ideas?

    Hello there, Underwriter.
    The following Knowledge Base article provides in-depth instructions on how to migrate your content to an external drive:
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4527
    Particularly of note for your situation:
    External drive
    This option requires more work than Home Sharing, but it creates a backup of your iTunes library on the external drive in addition to moving your content.
    Notes before you start:
    You can use most iPods as an external drive.
    Windows operating systems don't recognize Mac OS-formatted disks (HFS or HFS Plus formats). Because of this, you can't use a Mac-formatted iPod or external drive to move your music to a Windows PC. See iPod: How to determine iPod's hard disk format if you're not sure how your iPod is formatted.
    Mac OS X can read Windows-formatted iPods and drives. This means there are many ways to migrate your information from your old Windows-based PC to your new Mac.
    Mac OS X: To be sure external drives appear on your desktop, choose Preferences from the Finder menu. Be sure the options for "External disks" and "Hard disks" are enabled.
    Part 1: Locating and consolidating the iTunes Media folder
    Part 2: Copy iTunes folder from the old computer:
    Part 3: Get iTunes ready on your new computer
    Part 4: Back up any music that's already on your new computer
    Part 5: Copy music to your new computer
    Part 6: Add preexisting music that was on the new computer back into the library

  • Printing graph and other text in the same page

    Hi,
    I am aware that for providing graphs in ABAP report we have a FM which is called via a pushbutton in the output screen generally.

  • My location service is not working from the day one the response is that (cannot able to determine the location) .What can i need to do to see my location in maps and other application even the location services is enabled in the settings?

    From the day one the response is that (cannot able to determine the location) while using ios5.1 .What can i need to do to see my location in maps and other application even the location services is enabled in the settings?.Which means that is there is any problem in my ipad ? currently running on IOS 6.

    Your location is determined from a location database which contains the MAC addresses of routers and their physical location. A MAC address is a unique number which is built-in to all network devices when manufactured. The database is built and updated by actually driving around and mapping router locations.
    Since you just moved the location of your router has not been updated in the database and when you use Maps you will see your old location.
    If you go outside your house you can be correctly located because your iPod sees other routers which are in the location database. Note that you do not need to be connected to a router for your iPod to see it and obtain its MAC address.

  • How can I stop my iphone 4s from asking for my icloud, yahoo and other passwords all the time?

    How can I stop my iphone 4s from asking for my icloud, yahoo and other passwords all the time?

    As long as you share that AppleID for iCloud, you cannot.  You are sharing a a single iCloud account and sync services.  The only thing you can do is get a second AppleID and use it with iCloud - you do not have to use that new AppleID for anything but iCloud (ie. you can still share an AppleID for iTunes and App store purchases).
    P.S. I am assuming you both want to sync your contacts with iCloud?

  • Application is throwing NSAPI and other errors after the migration

    We started seeing NSAPI and other errors after the migration of new codes and recently make some changes
    1) During the migration, all the 4 WLS cluster instances were bounced simultaneously. What is the best practice and recommendation from BEA Oracle? Do we need to bounce it one by one for any specific reason?
    2) we recently introduced the 4th weblogic cluster instance on Solaris 10 zone. All other WLS instances are running on Solaris 8.
    Is it okay to have two different OS versions( Solaris 8 and Solaris 10) and different hardware to host WLS cluster instances? Does BEA Oracle support this kind of configuration?
    3) We are consistently seeing below errors in the iplanet web server error logs even though site is working fine
    [11/Sep/2009:08:53:50] failure ( 4453): for host XX.XX.XX.XX trying to POST /servlet/FSO, wl-proxy reports: exception occurred for backend host 'YY.YY.YY.YY/23120/0': 'CONNECTION_REFUSED [os error=0, line 1732 of URL.cpp]: Error connecting to host YY.YY.YY.YY.YY:23120'
    Do we need to upgrade our WLS proxy plugin? . Current version of WLS proxy plug-in is libproxy_61.so. Our Weblogic version is WLS 92 MP2
    I'll really appreciate if some can anwsers those questions

    OK booted in to Virtualbox, seems too be working fine this way, maybe it is the ATi drivers
    any Help would be appreciated

  • What settings need to be changed so logos (.png or .jpg) and other objects in the email (body_part_0.html or body_part_1.vcf) appear in the email in lieu of att

    We have several computers that receive email via Thunderbird. Two individuals received that exact same email. On one of the emails, the attachments are shown correctly (PDF file and a ZIP file). On the other computer, the attachments are also shown but any company logos (.png or .jpg) and other objects in the email (body_part_0.html or body_part_1.vcf) do not appear correctly in the body of the email but appear at the bottom of the email as attachments. I can send PDF files of these (2) different emails if it would be helpful.

    Matt: Thanks for the quick reply... both computers have the identical antivirus software package. I'm thinking that there has to be something in the configuration of Thunderbird that is slightly different that is giving the different results.

    Associate your mobile number with your Apple ID, if you haven't already done so.
    Sign out of iMessage on the Mac:
    Messages ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts ▹ Sign out
    and on the iPhone:
    Settings ▹ Messages ▹ Send & Receive ▹ Apple ID ▹ Sign out
    Then, on the phone, tap
    Use Your Apple ID for iMessage
    Sign back into iMessage on both devices and test. If there's no change, you may have to wait for a change in network conditions.
