Upgrade from Flex 1 to 2

Hello.
I have an 'old' Flex 1.0 / 1.5 app that I want to upgrade to
2.0 and keep maintaining.
1) Is there an upgrade utility / script from Flex 1.0 / 1.5
to 2.x ?
2) What is the parallel of this entry:
mx:Image height="45"
source="@Embed('resources/login_appname.png')"
backgroundImage="@Embed('resources/gui/top_bg.gif')" width="450"
(emphasis on the 'bacjkgroundImage' attribute that seens to
have disappeared)
Thanks!

We don't have a tool to automatically modify an app to move
it to Flex 2.0. Check the Flex Support Center; we might still have
a tech note on things to look out for.
The Image component doesn't support a background image. Put
the Image inside of a Container, like Canvas, which does support
that.

Upgrade from Flex Builder 3 Professional to Flash Builder 4 Standard?

Hi,
I currently own a license to Flex Builder 3 Professional, and I would like to upgrade to Flash Builder 4 Standard. I do not need the extra features included in Flash Builder 4 Premium, and it costs three times as much as the Standard upgrade.
However, none of the upgrade pages say if my particular upgrade path is possible or not. I talked to a sales rep on the phone, and he thought it would be fine, but didn't know for sure. Can anyone give me the official word if it is possible to upgrade from FB3 Pro to FB4 Standard?

Hi,
I don't think that "downgrades" from FB3 Pro to FB4 Standard are officially supported. You might be able to negotiate with a Sales Rep to make an exception for you though, for a discounted price on a non-upgrade version of FB4 Standard.
Alternatively, if you have any interest in CS5 Web Premium (or have any Adobe products qualifying for a CS5 upgrade), FB4 Standard is included with that Suite now.

Flash builder 4 upgrade from Flex 3 Standard

Hiya.
I would like to know from Adobe if the upgrade options available a wrong or not? I've just bought an upgrade from FB3 Standard to FB4 Preminum (from Eligibility chart is SEEMS possible). The installer when I entered my FB3 Standard serial says it's wrong. At this point the possible answers are two for me: the upgrade processes on the site is wrong or there's something wrong with the installer. A would like a clarification as soon as possible.
Thanks.

I run into the same problem.
For me it was the only option available at the adobe online store (upgrade Flex3 -> FlashBuilder4 Premium)
so the registration number didn't work, saying that i have the wong product to upgrade (Flex3 standard)
I had to open a case for software destruction to get a refund for what i've allready payed and if i want the FlashBuilder4 serial i have to re-buy it at the online store
Custumer support told that this is the only solution.
It's a little bit annoying.
That is not a critic to the support team (was very friendly) it's just annoying that i can't get a standad serial for my purchase and that i have to wait some weeks to get the refund...
So be carefully while purchasing the upgrade and look twice to choose the right option at the store.
(Hopfully the right option is now available...)

Flashbuilder 4 Upgrade from Flex 3 getting following errors any idea

Hi:
I'm getting the following 2 errors when I try to compile a swf from Flex 3 to FB4
Any ideas and how to get around this
1) 1061: Call to a possibly undefined method addChild through a reference with static type mx.core:INavigatorContent
      this is the AS call
        app.dashboardstack.selectedCild.addChild(panel);
2) 1118: Implicit coercion of a value with static type mx.core.INavigatorContent to a possibly unrelated type
             mx.core.Container
        var subjectObject:Container = accordion.selectedChild;
Thanks, Mike

You need to read this, http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/articles/flex3and4_differences.html and a couple of other related articles in the Flex Developer Center.

Upgrade from Flex Builder 3.1 to Flash Builder 4.5

I have several project in Flex Builder 3.1 now.
What is the best way to move them in Flash Builder 4.5? Can I just use the workspace from Flex Builder 3.1 in Flash Builder 4.5?
Is Flex 4.5 backward compatible at API level?

You should always have separate workspaces for separate versions of Flash Builder.
Flex 3 and Flex 4 have some large differences. You will probably want to spend some time reading about migrating by searching on Google. Here is a good place to start: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/articles/flex3and4_differences.html

Upgrade from Burrito to 4.5, Could not resolve MobileApplication tag?

Hello:
As the topic states, I just upgraded from Burrito to 4.5 today. I imported my app and I get the following error:
Could not resolve <s:MobileApplication> to a component implementation.    ...    line 6    Flex Problem
Did they take out MobileApplication? If so how can I support the back button on my Xoom device now?
Paul

MobileApplication was renamed to ViewNavigatorApplication.
Here's an example of how you would cancel the back button in the final 4.5 release:
<s:View xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
        xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" title="HomeView"
        backKeyPressed="view1_backKeyPressedHandler()">
    <fx:Script>
        <![CDATA[
            private function view1_backKeyPressedHandler():void {
                event.preventDefault();
                // do something else here
        ]]>
    </fx:Script>
</s:View>

Install Flash Builder 4.5.x Upgrade without Flex Builder 3.x installed?

Edit: Is the lack of replies because no one knows the answer or because this was a ridiculously dumb question?
Also, if I must have a prior version physically installed to do the upgrade, can I install Flex Builder 3 on a temp Windows machine, upgrade that to Flash Builder 4.5.x and then transfer the license to the MacBook? Seems like a very convoluted way of doing things but if that's the only way then I suppose I can go scrounge up a spare computer to do so. End Edit
Hi,
I just got a brand new MacBook Air which has Lion on it.
I have an unused boxed copy of Flex Builder 3.0 standard edition.
I tried to install 3.0 and of course I got an error along the lines of not compatible.
What I would like to do is upgrade to Flash Builder 4.5.
So the question is,
Can I buy the upgrade edition of Flash Builder 4.5 standard for Mac, then install that on my MacBook even if I don't have 3.0 installed to upgrade from?
Is it as simple of just supplying the seriel number from 3.0 when upgrading?
Thanks.

Changed the title to better reflect the situation.
Also added a blurb to the top.

Well, thought I should update just in case someone else has a similar thought.
I ran out of time to wait and it seemed I wasn't going to get a response so took the chance and bought the upgrade.
The install couldn't find any prior versions so just asked for the serial for Flex Builder 3.0.
After entering that in, it thankfully installed just fine.
Would have totally sucked if it didn't work and was forced to then buy the full version.
Anyhow, relieved it worked.
Regards.

Upgrade to Flex 4, Halo theme, embedded font doesn't work for Spark Label

I'm upgrading an application to Flex 4 from Flex 3.5 using the Halo theme. If I include a Spark Label in my application the Spark Label does not render the text using the font I defined in my CSS. My MX Labels render fine. Here is an example application that replicates my issue. So,
Compile and run using Spark theme. Both Labels render the text with the correct font.
Compile and run using Halo theme. Only MX Label renders the text with the correct font.
Is it not possible to do what I want?
Thanks

Problem of web service when upgrading to Flex 3

Hi,
We got a problem when upgrading our application from flex 2
to flex 3. The same webservice call code returns different results.
In Flex 2 it works properly but in Flex 3 it only returns partial
data. There is no fault or error returned in Flex 3. Here are the
major code:
In IssueDelegat.as:
public class IssueDelegate
private var responder : IResponder;
private var service : Object;
private var model : IssueTrackerModelLocator;
public function IssueDelegate( responder : IResponder )
this.model = IssueTrackerModelLocator.getInstance();
this.service =
ServiceLocator.getInstance().getWebService("jiraWebService");
if(!model.isWSDLLoaded){
service.loadWSDL();
model.isWSDLLoaded = true;
this.responder = responder;
public function getProjectsNoSchemes() : void
var call : Object =
service.getProjectsNoSchemes(model.loggedInToken);
call.addResponder(responder);
model.lastWSRequestTime = new Date();
In LoadProjectsCommand.as
public class LoadProjectsCommand extends SequenceCommand
implements ICommand, IResponder
public function LoadProjectsCommand()
public override function execute( event : CairngormEvent ):
void
var delegate:IssueDelegate = new IssueDelegate( this );
delegate.getProjectsNoSchemes();
public function result(event:Object) : void
var model : IssueTrackerModelLocator =
IssueTrackerModelLocator.getInstance();
model.projects = event.result;
for each (var proj:Object in model.projects){
if (proj.key == JiraClientConstants.PROJECT_KEY){
model.selectedProject = proj;
break;
The following fields are supposed to be returned in
"event.result" and it does in Flex 2, but in Flex 3 it only returns
<description> field:
<description xsi:type="xsd:string"/>
<id xsi:type="xsd:string"></id>
<issueSecurityScheme xsi:type="ns138:RemoteScheme"
xsi:nil="true"/>
<key xsi:type="xsd:string"></key>
<lead xsi:type="xsd:string"></lead>
<name xsi:type="xsd:string"></name>
<notificationScheme xsi:type="ns138:RemoteScheme"
xsi:nil="true"/>
<permissionScheme xsi:type="ns138:RemotePermissionScheme"
xsi:nil="true"/>
<projectUrl xsi:type="xsd:string"/>
<url xsi:type="xsd:string"></url>
Are there any major changes on the web service in Flex 3.
Thanks for your help!

i tried to test with soapUI 2.5, and i can get the result in the soapUI 2.5......

After upgrade from FB4Beta to FB4, web services no longer returning the same data types.

I just upgraded from FB4 beta to the FB4 release. I'm still running the Flex 3.5 SDK and amnow unable to use a lot of my web services. In the previous FB4 beta, I could generate the proxy classes from the WSDL and would get a ResultEvent that containted either my complex data type or an ArrayCollection of those complex data types.
After I deleted and regenerated the services under the FB4 release, I get a ProxyObject or an ArrayCollection of ProxyObjects. No matter what I try I cannot map those ProxyObjects to my complex data type and it's driving me nuts! The oddest thing is that it didn't break all of my services, just some of them.
I've tried several methods of mapping the ProxyObject to my custom data type but I get a null result every time and no errors.
private function getContactsResult_handleResult(event:ResultEvent):void
    this._contactsList.removeAll();
    if (event.result is ArrayCollection)
        for each (var contact:ContactType in event.result)
            _contactsList.addItem(contact);
    if (event.result is ContactType)
        _contactsList.addItem(event.result as ContactType);
Any suggestions?

It looks like this was a combination of the upgrade,
increasing use of ASP files and not having seperate application
pools in IIS.
We've just starting edding aspx apps, previously we only had
one asp app so we only used the default app;icaton pool in iis.
With the errors in the virtual directory started, we deleted and
remade the VD with it's only application pool. That appears to have
resolved the issues. The only concern I have is one of the VD did
have it's own applicaton pool and still had the very slow response
after the upgrade. But I'll see how this solution works for the
future.
The decesion was made to only have cf8 installed since that
worked well on our testing server, so we did intend to overwrite
the CFIDE folder.
Thanks for checking this out and for your time on this.
At this point I consider this closed. If something else comes
up I'll start a new thread on it.

Bad performance on CF9 after upgrade from CF8

Hello and happy new year for everybody
I'm stuck with a problem after upgrade from CF8 entreprise to CF9 entreprise.
We are using IIS6 on WIN2003R2 (SP2).
There are a lot of "503 Server Error" with no content. (about 0.05% of request). This can be occured on big or small CFM, graphic ressources, etc...
For each error I can see the following error on the connector logs (jrun_iis6_wildcardYYMMDD.log).
2011-01-02 19:00:05 jrISAPI[1456:3940] returning error page for JRun too busy or out of memory
I've never seen this message in previous CF connector version.
And on the jrun log (coldfusion-outXXX.log), I read the following errors:

Do you know if it should be possible to try old JRun connector used by CF8 ?

Is it really possible to upgrade from a Treo 650 to a Treo 750?

I am not a very happy customer at the moment, but any help would be greatly appreciated. I upgraded from my old Palm Tungsten to a Zire, then to a Cingular Treo 650, combining three devices into one. I have since discovered that the Treo 650 seems to have a faulty transmission mode, as I can rarely be clearly understood by whomever I call. Am on the second (or third, I have lost track) and continue to have the same problem. I get five bars of reception but can't be understood on the other end. A bit of a problem when one is trying to call 911. Am constantly told I am "breaking up". The repair shop says it "Can't duplicate the problem". OK, then I do not want to give up all the info I have stored in the fool thing, and the 750 seems to have a different system, so I thought I would try that. All the stuff I could find seemed to indicate it wouldn't be a problem to upgrade. When the 750 arrived, I tried to install the software from the CD on my Windows XP computer. No dice. Setup encounters an error and closes. Can't even look at the files, because setup tries to run any time I access the CD. From any drive. Gave it to my girlfiend to check on her computer, and the CD seemed to run fine. Other CDs work just fine on my computer. Must be some kind of conflict, but what? Tried calling the AT&T number that suggested they could help with setup, and was first connected to the business center, they routed me to the laptop center, who routed me to the network center, who said they would have to bring in the Palm customer service and connected me to a Mac guy that dumped me back to a menu that took me to someone for whom English is a second language with whom I was trying to communicate over a very poor satellite connection. They made no sense anyway. telling me first that I couldn't have two desktops running (wrong, my girlfriend has my old Zire and the CD worked fine) and then insisting that the serial number on my device had to start with a P, when it clearly does not have any alpha characters in it. Gave up on that route of assistance. Managed to get the new ActiveSync installed from my girlfriends computer over the network. Great. Now let's get my 650 synced with Outlook (which I have not used at home) and see if we can move on. Nope. First I have to update Outlook 2000 from the old Win98 to my current XP. Find the old CD, and square that away. OK, now sync to Outlook. Nope. The sync program gives an error, saying it will only sync with Outlook 98, 2000, and XP(2002). Good grief. I have Outlook 2000, and the software apparently does not recognize it. If the Palm doesn't work, there is no reason for me to keep this phone, and I am very close to returning it and abandoning the Palm entirely when I upgrade to something that works, although I dread re-entering all that information.

This question was solved.

Thanks for the feedback. Today I installed an Enterprise version of Office 2007 I purchased a while back, but had not yet installed. Microsoft presented a few challenges, but they were quickly resolved. I then downloaded the appropriate conduit from Palm, and synced the 650 with the handheld overwriting the computer. Then used Active Destop to sync the 750. Satisfied I had moved as much info as possible, I called AT&T and had them move the phone number to the new Treo.
Bonus! When the guy at AT&T called me on the new phone to verify it, he said it sounded better than my landline.
Sorry for the streaming paragraph. When it is late I tend to write like I think.

I upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 6. Everything converted fine until I deleted an app in error. When I downloaded it from iTunes, my account is no longer recognized by the app's host servers. Can I go back and re-sync one app from my old phone?

I upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 6. Everything converted fine. Yesterday I deleted an app in error. When I downloaded the software it from iTunes ( did this many times on the old 3GS), my account is no longer recognized by the app's host servers (Playtika), even though it did after the initial conversion. Can I go back and re-sync just one app from my old phone?

Try deleting what is called the iPod Photo Cache.
