Pro support for iOS app-development

Where can I find some more indept support for developing apps using Flash Professional CS5 / CS5.5.
I have been seaching the web for days now. Looking for a place where professional best-practises are shared on this topic. Without any real luck. All i ever see is the same basic tutorials on how to publish your first Hello World-app and some old basics about using cacheasbitmap and such...
Please could someone direct me to the right forum?
Only newly official information I have found so far, is focused on Flash Builder and Flex 4.5... And I'm begining to wonder if this means that app-development using Flash Professional is on it's way out already ?!
(Btw i tryed to make this discussion under Packager for iPhone-forum, but the option to post it there, didn't show up...)

Hi,
that forum was archived and the users sort of merged into this one
http://forums.adobe.com/community/air/development/mobile?view=discussions
...definitely not on the way out though!

Can I use macbook air for ios app development?

I would like to know if i can use macbook air for ios app development or macbook pro is only option?

Just to reinforce what shldr2thewheel says - be very sure what size memory you want if you get a Macbook Air. There is *no* way to change after purchase. My advice is to go for the 4GB option - especially if you want to do app development.
The internal storage (solid state drive) of the Air can be upgraded if required but it will probably be an expensive option. If you don't think the storage will be enough then maybe using a USB connected drive to hold non-essential files is an option.
As to deciding between the Air and Pro you are basically making a decision between portability (Air) and expandability/bigger screens (Pro). What is more important to you?

Ragards.

A Macbook Pro 13-inch may be a better choice.
Best.

The MBA is so small and thin many people can't help thinking it is like a Windows netbook - an underpowered toy. It isn't. There's nothing I do on my top end iMac that I can't - and don't - do on my MBA. Of course the iMac has a faster processor, bus speed, and a discrete video card so it is much faster than my MBA. Then again, my computers spend more time waiting for me to do something than I wait for them - and this includes using Photoshop and compiling code.
If I were writing large programs - something like Word for example - I'd want a very fast processor to speed up the compile/debug/compile cycle. But for iOS development your codebase will be much smaller. Frankly I can't see that much difference between a 13" MBA and a 13" MBP for development purposes. Now a top of the line 15" MBP is a different matter with its much faster CPU and separate video card.

Are macbook air computers sufficient for ios app development?

Looking into learning how to build ios apps and would like to know from those experienced how much computing power is necessary for building apps.

Is there any downside mixing Objective-C with C++ for iOS apps?

I'd like to use C++ since it's fast and more dynamically in memory reference.
Is there any downside mixing Objective-C with C++ for iOS apps?
When googled for info, I only found tutorials about how to let xcode compile Objective-C with C++.
Thanks for help.

Both Objective-C and C++ are (more or less) extensions of C.
C supports manipulation of pointers and casting of pointers, this implies that both Objective-C and C++ will be able to manipulate C data like arrays, structs ...
Objective-C has classes like NSData to read/write blocks of bytes from/to file and to access ranges of bytes when the data is loaded into memory.
C++ probably has similar classes (I'm not well versed in C++ so I don't know).
If you want to look into using C++ you will probably want to look at Objective-C++, the link below has links to docs on how to use C++ with Objective-C:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3684112/what-is-objective-c
Thanks for the info, NSData does what I need.
A replied in the link also mentioned that he's using C++ in his application too. As long as I'm aware of memory management (prevent memory leaks, etc) as @disguise said, it should be fine.
@etresoft indeed, but C is the base language of ObjC, there are ways to deal with.

HT201210 Why iphone 3g has no support for ios 5 + ..please allow us to download..

Why iphone 3g has no support for ios 5 + ..please allow us to download..
Please do anyhow. .anything ...you are the creater of apple.. I know you can do it. .please do anything that iphone 3g will support ios 5 ro greater than that..

The 3G was discontinued over 2yrs ago.
The 3GS was only discontinued about a month ago.
Apple made the decision that the 3G would not get anything newer than 4.2.1 because of reasons only they know.
Griping about it is pointless.
Speculating about why is against the terms of use of these forums.
The device is ancient... either accept that it will never get an update and live with it or buy something newer.

Is mac mini 2010 good enough for iphone app development?

I'm planning to get a Mac Mini 2010, with 4GB of ram instead of the default basic 2GB. I'm getting it to do iphone app development. Is this computer going to be sufficient? Are there any caveats I should be aware of?
Thanks!

Hi
I got exactly that setup for exactly that purpose... even the 4GB upgrade Even without the ram upgrade it should still be fine for iPhone app development. I've not run into any problems with mine.
I got my ram upgrade because I want to run Windows inside MacOS using virtualization software - that kinda thing requires lots of ram.
You might want to wait two days though before you buy. Apple has an event on Wednesday (October 20th) and it looks like there will be a lot of focus on Mac, possibly some hardware upgrades and a new version of MacOS.

Can you drop iOS 4 support for an app already in the App Store? What iOS version is good to target?

Now that AIR supports the MinimumOSVersion key, apps can set a specific minium version they will support. It wasn't available before, so it ended up in the app store with the default of 4.0.
Any device that AIR supported had to have ARMv7 anyways and I believe all ARMv7 iOS devices can update to at least 5.1.1, so would it be an issue with apple to drop iOS 4 support? Any device that could get the app before can upgrade to iOS 5+ for free to support it.
Only a small portion of people are still running iOS 4, and I get the feeling that most of those are folks with ancient ARMv6 devices that can't upgrade past iOS 4 and could never use the app anyways due to ARMv6. So why bother with testing for iOS 4 and possibly having to give iOS 4 related tech support?
If supporting 5+, is it a good idea to target 5.0 or 5.0.1 or 5.1 or 5.1.1 or what?

Any of the non-user generated resources is in the tmp or Cache folders (which are not backed up) on mine, so that shouldn't be an issue in my case.
I looked at the wiki for iOS 5 and i didn't see any developer-related features other than that 'do not back up' thing that were added between sub-versions of iOS 5, so maybe I should target 5.0?
I'm still wondering, how do you handle dropping older versions of iOS? Surly developers can't be expected to maintain support for discontinued versions of iOS forever just because their app has been around for awhile? Apps eventually need to advance and use new OS features and require performance of current devices. Just set the MinimumOSVersion key to 5.0 or whatever and that's it?

Which is better for iOS Game Development, Pro or Air?

I'm thinking of buying a MacBook Air. But I want to know which of Pro or Air is good for programming iOS apps. Or maybe Games.
-Is the new 2013 MacBook Air 13" good enough to develop 2D or 3D games for iOS devices?
-Or the Pro is better?
I want to create games for iOS. But I still don't which Macbbok to choose. A little help please? Thanks.

All current Mac, including the Air will run Xcode. The question is what else will you be running at the same time.
If money is an issue, buy a refurb'd Mac mini ($550.00), max the ram (16GB $150) and then get the largest LCD you can afford ($300 will go big). Should be USD$1000 or less by the time you get done and you won't have to work on a crowded screen.

I have just ordered a mac pro , will this be ok for some app development work ?

I am very new , had pc's all my life and expecting my first mac next week , I have wanting to get into app development and really wanted to know if the mac pro will be able to cut it ?

Sure, no problem.
Be sure to max out the physical ram and use a fast hd. Also hang as many monitors on it as you can...the bigger the better.
Good luck.
