Programs using adobe air platform

Hello everybody, I have downloaded a bunch of programs that use the adobe air platform. Programs like tweetdeck, twhirl, seesmic, spaz and some other. The thing is that, none of them work for me and I don't know if it's because there is some problem with adobe air not letting them connect properly. They are all programs which allow users to connect to their twitter account, but they just try to log in, and they stay there but nothing happens. Some of them say that they can't connect to twitter, or they just keep logging forever.
The reason why I'm here is because I downloaded like 7 similar programs and not one of them work. So I don't think every single one of them has problems. That's why I'm wondering if the problem could be Adobe AIR? Can anyone please share their opinions on this? Because if Adobe AIR is not the problem I have to start looking somewhere else.
I've already requested support from every single program, to see if they have some solution. I'm just here because I wanna know if the reason why none of them connect could be because of Adobe AIR?
Thank you so much.

Oh, sorry, my OS is windows vista home premium, and I use mozilla firefox 3.0.10 as my browser. Thank you. I've seen a forum on get satisfaction where people are having the same problem and apparently it's an adobe air problem because it doesn't connect to the internet. The link to that discussion is here.
Is there a solution to this problem? Like what can we do to make adobe air connect to the internet?
Thank you again so much.

  • How would I create an USB Barcode Scanner Listener using Adobe AIR?

    I want to create a USB barcode scanner listener that would read in the scanned barcode, and place the barcode in a field in my AIR App even if the program wasn't focused on that particular field in the App.  If the client was using the application at the time for something else the scan would be buffered in AIR till requested or the AIR App has been idle for x period of time where upon the field would be brought into focus.
    How would I go about this (I'm developing on windows)  Was hoping for a USB solution within AIR but not fussy at all if I have to go outside AIR to solve this problem.  Java, Flex, ActionScript, Flash, C, C++, C#, VB (currently I've developed the rest of the App using Adobe AIR and JavaScript)
    I thought after some research that I could make a Java App (if all else fails) that listens and buffers the input and passes it along using a socket but JUSB doesn't work on Windows properly.
    I'm not stuck on any one particular implementation or idea just want to get development underway so...  Any ideas? or suggestions would be awesome.  I've googled a lot but haven't found any examples or solid suggestions, so any URL pointing to that information would be great too, if you know of a good one, then I'd be able to read up on any suggestion.
    Thanks,
    Marty

    Thanks Joe,
    Just for anyone else.  I bought a Metologic Scanner - VoyagerCG.  I was trying to get it to work using Java USB for a bit with no luck.  But if you get this scanner or one like it, it can be configured as a Virtual COM Port.  Which is very very easy in Java to set up as a listener and use sockets to transfer the data and listen within AIR.
    This PDF has links to drivers and instructions if this is useful to anyone.

  • Wich programs brings Adobe Air withit ?

    Hi,
    i have to install some programms wich needs Adobe Air.
    To provide problems with other Adobe programms i have to know
    wich Adobe Programs installs Adobe Air by itselves.
    Is there a list or something?
    Thanks

    The AIR runtime will prompt for updates with any and all applications that use the stand alone runtime if an update is available.  However, this shouldn't be a problem, as newer versions of the runtime are backwards compatible.  If you'd like to make sure that your AIR app is always using AIR 3.2, I'd suggest utilizing a captive runtime.

  • Commercial App using Adobe Air S

    Hello,
    I have completed building an entire commercial app using
    adobe air using html+ajax. Now when I decided to make the .air file
    and install it on various computers, I realised that the entire
    code (html+ajax+images) is available in plainsight to the users in
    their program files directory.
    Can someone please tell me a solution? Should I obfuscate the
    code? What options do I really have? Please help.
    Thank you.

    While this might not bee too comfortable, you could try to
    create a browser Flex app, which you use a a container for HTML/JS
    data container.
    Your app calls the Flex app for various parts. Within the
    Flex container you need to store and somehow encrypt all resources.
    For sure, the actual code in the browser will be visible -
    but probably not for each and any user.
    Not an ideal solution, but at least an option.
    Additionally google for 'JavaScript obfuscator':
    http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=de-de&q=javascript+obfuscator&ie=UTF-8&oe=U TF-8
    Additionally, have a look at my
    previous
    post regarding Flex/AIR obfuscators

  • Downloads using Adobe Air

    This is difficult to even articulate but I'm trying to install an electronic advent calendar which calls for me to use Adobe Air and I'm requested to go into my Safari preferences and into the manage site section allow my computer to run in unsafe mode.  I decided I would do this for as long as it took to download the program.  But when trying to install it I get an error message that says, "Calendar can't be opened because it is coming from an unknown developer" even though I have the website open.  Anybody who has any knowledge of what to do to correct this would be greatly appreciated.  Since downloading Mavericks, I've run into more problems than with any other previous system update.
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the ideas and information guys.
    I am still confused on how I would have my application
    authorize the download instead of making a user input a username
    and password.
    I am wanting to do an auto update of my assets for my
    application without doing an application update. I have been able
    to get it to download a file to a specified location in the
    background using FileStream. I just haven't been able to figure out
    how to make the external files "secure".
    Encryption is not need at this point but that's a great idea
    that I'm sure I'll end up using.

  • Flash built app with in-app purchases using Adobe AIR

    I am working on building an app using flash which will run on desktop/ios/android, using adobe air to publish the final content. I am pretty proficient using flash, but not so much in actionscript.
    The idea for the app is one of a library where a user can read a free book (short story really) and then have the option to purchase other stories via in-app purchases.
    Does anyone know how this would work best? Should those short stories be located in separate movie clips within the app and are just locked and invisible until the user makes payment? Then when paid they are made visible for the user to read? Or should be be held somewhere externally? Maybe in PDF form, so when the user purchases then they can view the pdf within the app?
    Or what would people recommend?
    Thank you in advance for any help/advice!

    they can be within your app.
    that's easiest and i don't think anyone would bother de-compiling your app to access the paid content.

  • SQLite encrypted Database does not get attached Using Adobe Air,Why?

    Hi,
    Any one knows the solution, am trying to attach the encrypted SQLite database adobe air-adobe flex bulder , it does not get attached using sqlconnection.attach throws error, though the given key is correct, but it gets open using sqlconnection.open with the same key, any one knows the solution, how to attach the encrypted data base, since am using two data base one is opened and another must be attached to the existing ,thanks in advance. using adobe air- flex related. i use the following code
                   databaseFile1 = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("Sample_1.sqlite");
                   databaseFile2 = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("Sample_2.sqlite");
    dbConnection.open(databaseFile1, SQLMode.CREATE, false, 1024, secKey);
    dbConnection.attach("db2",databaseFile2,null,secKey);
    got the following error.
    ERROR #3125 Unable to open the database file.

    And I would say more "this is the issue" !
    It should be possible as it is clearly stated in the doc :
    public function attach(name:String, reference:Object = null, responder:Responder = null, encryptionKey:ByteArray = null):void
    with 
    encryptionKey:ByteArray (default = null) — The encryption key for the database file. If the attach() call creates a database, the database is encrypted and the specified key is used as the encryption key for the database. If the call attaches an existing encrypted database, the value must match the database's encryption key or an error occurs. If the database being attached is not encrypted, or to create an unencrypted database, the value must be null (the default).
    so with a same encryptionkey, I (and this should be the same for FinalTarget) can open the encrypted db but not to attach it... quite strange.

    looks like your equipmentArray is empty. Put a breakpoint inside that method to see if there is any data.

  • How do I develop for multiple screen resolutions using Adobe Air

    Hi,
    I'm looking at developing mobile apps using Adobe Air but there's something I'm not quite sure. Sorry if this is a newbie question or has been repeated but I have looked at tutorials, etc but just want to get a general idea on how to prepare the assets. Here are some of my questions:-
    1) If I want to develop for the iPhone non-retina and retina resolution, do I actually need to only write the code and layout the graphics in retina(960 x 640) stage size and it will automatically scale down for non-retina resolution?
    2) How do I cater for iPhone 5 resolution? Do I actually need to swap say the background images through code by detecting the resolution size it was in? or do I actually just leave the background image longer it exceeds the stage height so when it's iPhone 5 it will show everything?
    thanks for the help!

    If you are talking about regular Flash work, and not your own code-layout application, then what happens depends on the scale mode of the stage. Typically, when doing code layout the stage is set to no_scale, and you have to do all the hard work yourself, calculating the size of things, and laying them out with ActionScript.
    If it's more of a typical Flash graphical scene there are two other scale modes that make life easier for you.
    The default scale mode is show_all. With that you will be certain to see all of the content of your original Flash stage, and if the screen is a wider ratio than your stage, the content that is off the sides of the stage will be revealed. See this app I made, that uses that technique:
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/meet-heckerty-funny-interactive/id514220257?mt=8
    It works well enough, I have enough extra background graphics to go out to a 16:9 screen, including iPhone 5. That particular stage is 1024x768, and it will scale all the way from iPad 3 Retina down to iPhone 3gs.
    The other scale mode that is useful is no_border. In that mode you are certain to not have any black borders around the stage. It achieves that by cropping into either the left and right, or the top and bottom, of the stage. See these apps I made, that work that way:
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/milkshake-mayhem/id556962979?mt=8
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/p.s.-snowflake-yourself/id571384475?mt=8
    In both of those cases I have content that is correct for half way between the ratio limits of 16:9 and 4:3 (or 9:16 and 3:4 for the portrait case). When the app runs on your device, some amount of the left and right, or the top and bottom, of the stage is cropped. I have enough background content for that to be ok, and all of the important content is within the middle 14:9 or 9:14 area of the screen. The stage size for the landscape app is 1680xx1080, exactly 14:9. This approach is better than the show_all one, in that the user doesn't feel like they are seeing a lot of blank space, as can be the case when viewing a 4:3 stage on a 16:9 screen.
    One last thing, even with either of those techniques the app won't fill the iPhone 5 screen. To get that to work you have to include a splash screen that is 640x1136, and name [email protected]. With that in place iOS knows to make your app use the full width or height of the iPhone 5.

  • App that uses Adobe Air will not work

    I recently tried to install a widget from a greeting card company that uses Adobe Air.  The app will not load. I get a window for the license agreement for Adobe Air and when I click I agreee nothing happens.

    I use Windows 7.  I have tried all the compatibility settings in the app properties with the same result.  I left it set on Windows 7 compatiblility.  I tried downloading the app and then Adobe Air, uninstalled both and tried downloading Adobe Air first then the app.  I contacted the app vendor (Jacquie Lawson) and Andrew with their support sent me to the Adobe support site. Once the downloads completed and try to open the app this is what I see:
    I click on the I Agree button and it closes.....nothing else.  I appreciate your help.  Doing things is how I have learned so hopefully this will be  a learning experience.

  • Play SWF file in Android using Adobe AIR.

    Hi All,
         I have a group of SWF files. I want to play these files in my Android Application using Adobe AIR. Is it possible? If yes, can anyone tell me how to do this.

    Is it a plain ActionScript3 project? if so, from memory, this should be enough:
    var loader:Loader = new Loader();
    loader.load(new URLRequest("yourswf.swf"));
    addChild(loader);
    Of course, you can get more control over the loading process, this may result in error if you paste down the code as is in a class that is not a subclass of DisplayObjectContainer, etc.
