Replacing Adobe branding in an AIR app

Hi all,
When I use a Javascript alert() call, I've noticed that the title of the dialog box still says "Adobe AIR". The icon has been replaced with the icons I've defined in my application.xml file, but I haven't yet managed to work out how to get rid of the title.
Can someone point out how I can do that?
Is there any other Adobe AIR branding that I need to cover?
Here's my application.xml file for reference.
<application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/2.5">
    <id>My App Name</id>
    <versionNumber>0.1</versionNumber>
    <filename>MyAppName</filename>
    <initialWindow>
<title>Visitor Induction</title> 
        <content>myApp.html</content>
        <visible>true</visible>
        <width>720</width>
        <height>500</height>
    </initialWindow>
<icon>
  <image16x16>images/icons/16.png</image16x16>
  <image32x32>images/icons/32.png</image32x32>
  <image48x48>images/icons/48.png</image48x48>
  <image128x128>images/icons/128.png</image128x128>
</icon>
</application>

Hi Chris,
Thanks for you answer... that's what I ended up doing.
I must have spent 5 hours trying to work out how to close a native
modal window though ... and the solution I came up with is still kinda
poor ...
You cant call window.close() on a new native window.
I had to register a click listener on the whole window and close it
irrespective of where the user clicks on it.

  • Air app for android NOT prompting user to download runtime

    My app tested fine on a DROID ii but when I had a friend download the app on his DROID x the app showed an error when run. It did not prompt the user to download the runtime. Once we did download the runtime, the app worked fine.
    I went through much agony renaming my package name to remove the "air." prefix for reasons that are not important here.  Could this cause a phone not to recognize that the air runtime is needed? I cannot find any documents that say that the prefix does more than help adobe keep track of air apps.
    Here is my app in case it helps:

    Thanks.

    Have you heard of the expression, "Tampering with this product will void the warranty"?  :-)
    There's no guarantee that the process you went through to remove the air. prefix didn't break the part of the app that automatically triggers the AIR runtime request. You're basically doing things that aren't supported, so I doubt you'd find an answer to that question from Adobe.
    Personally, I would look at using the captive runtime feature of AIR 3.1+ and then you won't have to worry about the user needing to download the runtime separately. If it's really that important for you to remove the air. prefix, captive runtime should fix this problem.

  • Google AdSense & Adobe Air: Got banned for achieving success with my air apps

    I don't know if this is the right place to post it, but I'd like to tell you my little success story and warn about the implications that might come from the use of google adsense - probably
    the most popular mobile ad provider after google gave up on admob. Here it goes:
    Today I received an email from uncle Google stating that my account had been suspended due to the implementation of mobile AdSense ads in my apps, which is supposedly against the rules, even though I couldn't find anything specific that would support their claims in their terms of use. Nevertheless, to cut long story short, I've been easily making EUR50-60 and having 30-40k views a day (just in 2.5 months since the day I developed my first app on google play). So, as you can see, we're talking here about a really nice revenue, and it's just from my AIR apps.
    Unfortunately, when a developer does achieve success, people at google start checking them up in hopes of finding any reason to claim their hard-earned money and ban their accounts (I had on my adsense account somwhere around EUR 2000 - about EUR 1700 from apps and EUR 300 from my websites, and yes, google has taken it all, even the cash from the websites).
    This entire situation is really aggreviating and saddening. I mean, I've spent so much time, and money as well, promoting and developing my apps, and the only thing I get is a slap in the cheek . God that feels bloody awful. I believe that taking the matter to the court won't help either, as google has a paragraph in their terms of use stating that everything belongs to them, and that they can ban you at will without giving the reason. But what is the most insolent and infuriating is that they thanked me for "my cooperation and understanding, and wished me a nice day." - for realz google, you don't have to kick a lying men...
    The punch line of this depressing story is that if you only have the opportunity to transfer the money from your adsense account, or from any other ad provider your using on a daily basis, just DO IT and don't wait till they find anything on you and claim your revenue.
    Dear ADOBE, what's the real point of Air apps if we don't even have a viable and safe way to monetize our applications. Why do we have to be treated by the mobile ads providers as "subdevelopers"? We just want to get legally paid for our work. Is that too much to ask?
    Feel free to repost it whenever and wherever you want.

  • Adobe AIR app installation issue due to certificate problem on mac 10.9.5

    Im trying to upgrade and then reinstall an Adobe Air application but get the error message failing to install due to a certificate issue.
    The developer says the fix is to uninstall the app and install again but this also fails.
    Checked my machine clock - saved but that didnt work
    The adobe AIR uninstaller simply says I have the latest version? Cant seem to delete and reinstall although other adobe air apps work so I dont think this is the issue
    I have gone through the troubleshooting guide: Troubleshoot AIR installation | Mac OS but still have the issue?
    Any ideas would be great.

    I suspect your Mac OS install was an in place upgrade from an earlier version. This is something I would never even consider with a production machine.

  • My Macbook Pro was stolen, and I have replaced it with a Macbook Air. New hard drive is too small for a Time Machine restore. How do I restore my more-expensive apps (ie iWorks) on my new Macbook without repurchasing them?

    My Macbook Pro was recently stolen, and I have replaced it with a Macbook Air. I attempted to simply do a restore from the Macbook Pro's Time Machine backup, but since the new Macbook Air's hard drive is significantly smaller, a Time Machine restore was not possible. I even tried to choose only settings or only my User Profile (option) when restoring, but the backup was still too large to do a restore onto the new machine. How do I restore my more-expensive apps (ie iWorks) onto my new Macbook without repurchasing them? Also, I reaad somewhere that if you went to the Mac App Store and attempted to repurchase the app and clicked BUY, it would simply alert you that you have already purchased the app (and trigger a re-download)... NOT THE CASE... So I just dropped another $19.99 for a second copy of Pages... Not my intention....
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    LM

    you should get a usb backup drive as well.  time machine has limited use in my eyes. it saves things. but older things can be errased ad space drops without telling you
    nothing beats data redundancy.  2 saves is. 1.    and 1 is none
    im personally not fond of time machne though i use it only for a recovery parameter for a mac
    id never ever myself consider time machine a genuine data backup tool.  though most do consider it as such
    drive clones such as superduper and carbon copy cloner can clone your entire drive for emergency recovery.  and you can boot from them as well o. another mac

  • Admin Rights for Adobe AIR apps

    Which Admin rights are needed on a system to install a .AIR file on a system? In our Enterprise scenario users do not have Admin rights on the system. And whenever user tries installing an AIR app an error is thrown for the same. I want to know what are the least (Admin) rights that we need to give to a user on a WindowsXP system so that he can install air apps?

    Hello,
    Unfortunately, there isn't a simple answer to this question because AIR isn't in complete comtrol over the full set of files and registry keys touched during an install - we rely on Windows Installer for that.  However you can find additional information about this at:
    Does Installing an AIR Application Require Admin Rights?
    What are Administrative Rights, Anyway?
    You might also want to vote for this idea: Installation of Adobe AIR apps without having administrative privileges

  • How to get Adobe Air-apps to run *properly*? (Voddler ecpecially)

    First: I am running AMD64, and have installed the bin32-adob-air from AUR.
    The problem is, this does not work as it should. Air apps are never "installed" like they would be in Windows, or Ubuntu with the adobe-air from adobe installed. This causes problems with remembering configs and storing data between instances. Wimp, t.ex. will never remember my password, now matter how many times I check the remember password-box. And When running VOddler it just won't find the config file.
    I am trying to run Voddler in linux now, following this. But it won't work.
    I just get an "error reading config file" message when starting it using the adobe-air command (ie. the script from the package. Thinking the problem might be caused by the script running air apps from a temp dir, i aslo tried to run
    [gert@blad opt]$ /opt/adobe-air-sdk/bin/adl -nodebug /opt/airapps/VoddlerPlayer/META-INF/AIR/application.xml /opt/airapps/VoddlerPlayer
    after unpacking the Voddler Files there, but no luck.
    I see that there are a newer version of Voddler out now, and I will try that, but I'd appreciate any help with this spesific issue.
    Also, I would like to know if there is any way to get the "full Air experience" where you jut click-and go, and can install Air-apps the simple, proper way "everybody else" does it. Cause Air right now is a major hassle. Is there any chance of getting the Adobe-Air installer from Adoe work on Arch, or at least get a similar result? Integrated in the system, detected in the browser on  webpages etc.

  • Can individual Adobe Air apps be installed without local admin permission into a user-owned folder?

    Is this a supported scenario?
    Windows 7 PC.
    Adobe Air runtime (latest; 4.0) has been installed by an administrator using a local admin account and the eulaAccepted file is present under the "All Users" profile.
    User logs in using her own account which does not have local admin rights.
    User downloads an Air app and tries to install it to C:\Users\<username> where she has full write permissions to the disk.
    What I observe when acting as the User is that the Windows UAC (security escalation to local admin rights) dialog pops up. Can anyone clearly state what the Adobe Air installer is doing that requires the UAC escalation when installing an app to a user's folder? Thanks.

    Thanks for your reply, Chris. We're working around these problems by deploying the Air runtime + the application separately using an administration tool, which is fine for now.
    I logged the question because I don't see any registry edits or privileged folder access taking place. I suspect that the UAC escalation has something to do with the "eulaAccepted" file; checking that it exists. I doubt that escalated permissions are really required for this. In the long term, it'd be good if this "use case" could be added to the test cycle of Air; perhaps the UAC dialog could be avoided, improving the flexibility of deployment options.
    Ideally the test would start with an adminstrator-installed Air package *without* the EULA being accepted. The user should be able to install apps and approve the EULA without the UAC dialog popping up at all.

  • Will Adobe AIR apps work on iOS (Javascript/HTML)?

    Hello,
    I haven't been able to find any definitive answer on whether Adobe AIR apps using Javascript and HTML can work on iOS.
    Anyone know for sure?
    And if so, what happens with the APIs available through these swfs that we currently include:
    networkInfoWrapper.swf
    servicemonitor.swf
    applicationupdater_ui.swf
    Many thanks
    Stephen

    The answer is no. Apps developed for AIR using HTML and JavaScript are not supported on iOS or other mobile platforms. The mobile platforms do include a StageWebView component that can be used to load and display HTML and JavaScript. However, it is entirely different than the HTMLLoader control used on the desktop platforms (for HTML-based AIR apps). You cannot, for example, call any AIR/Flash APIs from JavaScript running in a StageWebView. In general, very little communication is possible between your ActionScript application code and the JavaScript code running in the StageWebView object.

  • Adobe AIR Apps + Safari = Very slow

    Hi everybody,
    I'm experiencing a strange behaviour of my Adobe AIR Apps on iPad. I've tested several Apps now (one GPU-Heavy Game, one CPU-Blitting App, one pretty standard Puzzle) and all of them do have the same issue - as soon as Safari is running in the background it sometimes (not always.. and most likely on iPad1) slows my App down to 1fps. Until I close Safari again. I haven't ever seen any other App doing so, thus I believe it's an Adobe AIR bug. Maybe only on iPad though.
    Does anyone know why this happens or if I can get around of that? Besides my Apps run superfast.
    What I've tested so far is:
    - My memory usage is ~4mb. Doesn't seem to bother him if it's more or not
    - My GPU-Cache is held quite low (but even with empty GPU Cache this issue appears)
    - I'm using an Enter-Frame in all my apps which simulates the rendertick. Maybe this may be the fault?!
    Many thanks in advance,
    Marvin.

    Furthermore:
    - if the iPad was restarted you can have opened any iOS system-app without slowing down the Adobe AIR app
    - nevertheless after some hours this bug occurs again.
    Our game is in stores now: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ifunnel-frenzy-hd/id457822239?mt=8 and many people send us bugreports because of it. As soon as I'm telling them to close iOS system-apps things work superfine again.
    You can download and test this bug for yourself - I think this might be pretty self-explaining then.
    I'm a bit struggling how to solve this.. honestly.

  • Adobe air apps cannot be installed

    Hi,
    I have trouble with my PC to install any kind of adobe air app. When I start to install a Adobe air app, I get the UAC request and I confirm it but then the Adobe Air Application Installer.exe *32 is hanging and doing nothing.
    When I repeat the process another Adobe Air Application Installer.exe *32 instance is started.
    Here is my equipment and what I tried:
    Equipment:
    Windows 7 professional SP1 64 -Bit
    - Reinstalling Adobe air with Revo Uninstaller(cleaning registry) and installing it new with Admin rights.
    - Installing Adobe air in Windows XP Sp3 mode
    - Multiple apps were tried and when I start them with the SDK, they are working fine.
    - No information are available in the windows eventlogs
    Any idea  how to solve it or any possibility to start a debug tool to get more information?
    Thank you in advance for any input and help!
    Cheers,

    3. Try to install the app SmartClient.air -> Did not work
    4. Try to install the app DesktopiPhone.air -> Did not work

  • How to read http cookies from adobe desktop Air app using flex/flash builder in AS 3.0 ??

    Im developing Adobe desktop air app where i need to read the session id from the cookie of a http request.
    I have found a property called URLRequest.manageCookies supported by AIR so i Hope there should be a way to read the cookies as well. Im Using Flash Builder 4.5
    Please provide any reference code or guide me for this research;
    searched a lot regarding on this web.
    Most results lead to local shared object or reading cookies fr a webpage using javascript and ExternalInterface.
    I want to read http cookies not Local shared Object and in a desktop AIR application.
    Im using Flash builder 4.5
    Thanks

    Sorry, but you are at the wrong forum; this one is only for discussions on the forums themselves. The Air forums are here:

  • Displaying fb Friends in Adobe AIR app

    First off, I realize I'm completely in over my head here.
    I am a designer... not a programmer.  Sure, I've set up some "quizzes" on facebook... but nothing like what I'm trying to do here.  So, I'm hoping to get some quick and simple help from someone here.
    Anyway... here's my problem...
    I've made a fun little Adobe AIR app using Flash CS4.  When ran it makes your computer screen look like you're logging into the Umbrella Corporation from the Resident Evil franchise.  It has company data, surveillance cameras and other stuff.  It's totally for fun and doesn't "do" anything.  Just wanted to make an AIR app late one night and this is what I did.
    Now, however, I would like to make it so that you can login to your facebook account and then view a "database of Umbrella Employees"... which... in reality... would simply be a list of your facebook friends with pictures!  The descriptions of what they "do" could be randomly generated from a file or something... or it could be grabbed from some posts they've made or something.  But the friend pictures and names are really what I'm wanting to show.
    I have looked and looked all over for a simple "downloadable" example of this.  I've found some things, but everything is like reading an encyclopedia... and, like I said, I'm simply not that smart.
    Does anyone have a Flash CS4 .fla file that you could share with me to show me how to do this?
    I'm serious when I say I can't figure much out... so please include all library files and anything else I need to know (like upload this to your server here) and stuff.
    If you help, and I "release" this (obviously I can't make money on it) I'll put an Easter egg in for you with your profile or picture or whatever you like!
    Here's hoping for some help...
