What is Adobe AIR (And why should I develop in it)

I'm just wonderi ng what Adobe AIR is, and how I could use it in my Flash Development. In the main properties of my flash project I can select which player to run it on, and AIR is available in that list. I haven't tried it yet. But what do I gain out of using it. Can I just switch to Adobe AIR while still using all of my Actionscript 3.0 code? Does it add any new API's I can use for Actionscript 3.0 or is it an entirely different language?
Thanks in advance

Thanks for the reply. I read through a few of the guides there and from what I can see, I can essentially just change the player to Adobe AIR without needing to change any of my code. However I will gain acess to some API's that only run using AIR?
Am I correct in saying this?
probably, but not necessarily. if you're calling server-side scripting, you'll have some trouble converting to air. and, there are some other unlikely scenarios that will cause some trouble.
A lot of the sample apps included xml documents in the same directory, are they needed in some way?
no

What's adobe air and adobe community help?

I loaded 5.5 tonight and got a popup asking me if I'd like to install the new version of Adobe Air. I said no thanks. Then I clicked on the Help in 5.5, and it suggested I'd like to install a new version of Adobe Community Help. I said okay, and then I got the popup for Adobe Air again. When I canceled it, the upgrade to Adobe Community Help didn't complete properly.
What's Adobe Air and what's Adobe Community Help? What's the relationship between them?

AIR is a runtime environment for running certain applications. The Adobe Community Help Client is an AIR application; it's a viewer for the Help documents.
I prefer to not use the Community Help Client application. Instead, I use the HTML version of Help in my browser or the PDF version when I'm not online.
There are direct links to the PDF and online HTML versions of the Help documents here.

What are Layers? And why do I need them?

WHAT ARE LAYERS? AND WHY DO I NEED THEM?
Layers are an essential part of Photoshop. With Layers you can separate pictures or design elements from each other, as if they are stacked on pieces of glass. With all elements separate, you can move or change them independent of each other.
Layers are used for many tasks, including improving your images' color or tone; merging two or more images in one Photoshop file; and creating Web designs and animations.

PHOTOSHOP/ LAYERS BASICS - Reference Guide

After creating the mask and applying adjustment, you can also adjust and change layer mask using selection tools or, the most common way, using brush tools.
To have a more accurate preview of what are you doing, Alt + click on the layer mask thumbnail to show the mask in the image area.
At this point, you will have a layer mask on your screen in large view, so it is easy to fine tune it, but you wont see how that affects your image.
To seean instant preview how changes on layer mask affects the adjustments, use New Window for (name of your image) from Window > Arrange.

What are smart mailboxes and why do i need both smart and "normal" ones?

What are smart mailboxes and why do I need both smart and "normal" mailboxes?

Hi Kingoftypos,
Thanks for that clarification. So, now it appears that the ultimate purpose of a Smart Mailbox is to point to all emails that meet the criteria in a single place, so if they are spread among several mailboxes, you will be able to see them all together. Here is an article from Apple that describes it:
A Smart Mailbox displays in one location messages that are stored in other mailboxes, so you don’t have to move messages between mailboxes. The messages displayed by a Smart Mailbox are based on criteria you define, and are automatically updated to include new messages that match your criteria. For example, you might create a Smart Mailbox that displays all messages found in all mailboxes from a specific sender.
If you change a message in a Smart Mailbox, such as marking the message as read or unread, or moving or deleting the message, the change is reflected in the mailbox where the message is actually stored.
So, adam, I would think that, if you had mail going to a lot of different places, and wanted to be able to see a particular set of those in a single place, you would use a smart mailbox. Maybe use the rules to direct your mail to different places to start with, but a smart mailbox to bring a set of common ones all together into a single smart mailbox?
Maybe you have Rules move your Amazon mail to an Amazon folder and your Apple mail to an Apple folder, but then you have a Smart Mailbox that contains any mail that has the word "Receipt" in the Subject line?
Just a thought....
Cheers,

Query as Web Services!!! What are its uses and why do we need it?

What are its uses and why do we need it.. if other tools like Dashboard and crystal reports and Webi can connect to universe and create reports and Analytics...

Hello Rajsan Madhavarajan
Query as a Web Service (QaaWS) is a SAP Business Objects (BOBJ) client-side tool that allows users to create and publish Web Services that can be made available over the Web. Once these web services are created and published, they can be consumed like any other standard Web Service in software applications including Xcelsius and Crystal Reports. But first we have to understand what exactly is a Web Service.
Web Service
A Web Service is a software system that supports interoperable interaction over a network from one computer or machine to another but is more commonly defined as a client and a server communicating data over the Web using the HTTP Protocol. Using Web Services along with Business Objects allows a live connection of data to be used in applications such as Xcelsius and Crystal Reports through a semantic layer called a Universe.
Query as a Web Service (QaaWS)
The two main components in QaaWS are the Client Tool and the Server. The QaaWS Client Tool gives the end user an easy to use wizard that allows them to create Universe queries and publish them as Web Services. Once the QaaWS is published, any user can securely access the data that the Web Service contains as long as they have access to that server. Have a look on image below that shows the information flow to and from the server via the client.
Advantages to QaaWS:
Very easy to use and intuitive interface Familiar look and feel for people who have used Web Intelligence
Leverages existing Business Objects Universes Shares metadata with Web Intelligence, Desktop Intelligence and Crystal Reports
Maintains Business Objects Enterprise Security
Allows live data feeds to be incorporated into Xcelsius Dashboards and Crystal Reports

What are setup tables and why do you need to run it

Hello Gurus,
I know the steps for setting up the LO cockpit exactors.
My question is what are the parameters that you feed into the Setup table filling screen --- like the doc numbers, start date and end date.
Why do we have to run the setup tables?
If I give the start date for setup table run for SD as 08/24/06 and end time Nill and others parameters blank, then would the set up job run for ever. Is this how you set it up in production environment.
Does setup mean, bringing the data from application table to extraction structructure?

Simmi

Routers: What Are Jumbo Frames and why do I need them?

Some routers' specs specifically mention that they handle jumbo frames (with a number like 9K). I have a network with 2 iphones, two ipads, 4 computers, two networked Blu-Ray players, and 3 computers, all of which are operating simultaneously a lot of the time.
Some other companies seem to be using the fact that they support jumbo frames as part of their selling points. How do they help?
I asked Cisco Chat support about the RVS4000 and whether it supported them on both the WAN and the LAN. They said not on the WAN. They also said "
It appears under the L2 Switch tab you can input a Max Frame type.....
I don't see anything that actually says jumbo frames but I believe you can put in a value.....
after the device is setup you can navigate to the L2 Switch option and it has a Max Frame value"
I'm not sure whether this router supports jumbo frames or not. I have a short list of wired gigabit routers that I'm considering for purchase and the RVS4000 is on the list.
I need to learn more about this topic so any help or pointers to stuff to read would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much for the info. I read virtually all of it. The Jumbo Frames thing sounds very tricky - and possibly detrimental. I'll have to see if Time Warner Roadrunner supports them and at what sizes. Other than for really big file transfers between machines on my network (which I don't do that often) it sounds like jumbo frames isn't going to do much for me.
It also looks like the RVS4000 is not what I want. The smallnetbuilder review was a very useful one-although it's 4 yrs old, it's still likely mostly valid.
I do some gaming at times and it sounded like the adjusting of frame sizes until all the devices in the path are the same can cause unacceptable latency. Now it seems that no matter which gigabit router I choose, I need to be sure I get one where I can disable the major frames process, and maybe enable it when I want to do hard drive backups across the network. Welcome to the gigabit ethernet world I guess.
The RV220W sounds like a nice machine, but is a lot more machine than I think I need for my network. I read a very detailed review of it on Amazon at: http://www.amazon.com/gp/cdp/member-reviews/A2BBGBR6ARRJQO/ref=cm_pdp_rev_more?ie=UTF8&sort_by=MostRecentReview#R2SCJUQOKY7EN
It also sounds like it's more complex to set up than I would like to tackle. I'm a retired electrical engineer but definitely not a skilled IT person, so plug and play simplicity is important. I understand just enough to get in trouble.
Thanks again for the links. Much appreciated.

What is "rb driver" and why do I need it?

Hello,
I am trying to implement Oracle Secure Backup Express on Windows 2003 x64. The server is HP DL380 G5 and the tape drive is HP Ultrium 448 (it is SCSI, not FC devce).
I disabled the "removable storage" service, installed OSB, configured the host as mediaserver/admin/client and configured the device. I can succesfully ping it (it is attached on \\.\Tape0). But when I try to mount a tape i get the folowing error:
"can't mount volume in lentata - operation requires rb driver"
I can't find a thing about "rb driver" at all. I think it is some legacy from the time of "Reliaty Backup". But how can I install/run rb driver?
The device is working pretty well with ntbackup, but I would like to use rman...

Cannot install Adobe AIR and CS6 suite

Hi folks,
Lets start with: i am the build in local admin account! i did run as admin! and as far as i know i got rights on everything.
Windows 7 SP1 64bit.
I did try selective boot through msconfig, and i did try it also in safe modes in the most minimal state.
Creating a shortcut with the "-uninstall" string obviously not work, because there is no more installation of Adobe air or CS6 products installed on my machine.
This is what the Adobe AIR installer log tells me,

I googled my cute little hiney off, for almost 2 full days now.. spent alot of time in the Win7 register and in deep hidden windows folders.
As far as i know i completly removed Adobe Air and CS6 products.
Also tried the adobe creative cloud cleaner tool everyone is talking about, but it not even start on my machine?!
Why the hell! i cannot install Adobe AIR or CS6 Products?
If you need more information, i am happy to give it to you.
PS
Adobe flash, shockwave and Reader work perfect?!!?!?!?!
I leave problems reports about Adobe CS6 products out of this discussion for now, because i have a feeling that the problem is connected with eachother.

Hi,
I found requirements for Flash and Air on Android from following Sites:
http://www.adobe.com/products/air/systemreqs/#mobile
Android devices
VGA: Dedicated Cortex A8 (ARMv7) 550MHz App Processor with Neon for A8 only; Hardware Vector FPU

Dedicated Cortex A8 (ARMv7) 800MHz App Processor
Hardware Vector FPU
Dedicated Cortex A8 1000Mhz App Processor
Hardware Vector FPU
Dual-Core Cortex A8 1000Mhz App Processor
Hardware Vector FPU
Operating system
Android™ 2.2*
If I am getting it correctly, both requires same ARM version, and Hardware Vector FPU.
But I have found many devices, where Adobe Flash is installed and running. (If market does not show Adobe Flash, device manufacturer provides flash apk which works)
But can not install Adobe Air. Market does not show Adobe Air.
Is there any way to sort this out?
I get feeling that as Flash is more popular software, people have got patched version for the same. But for Air, it does not exist.
Thanks

Questions about Adobe AIR and FLV license model

I'm currently looking for a game development framework which I can use for a fan-project in my spare time and also for commercial projects for the company I'm working for.
I think that the Citrus Engine which is open source and based on Apache Flex/Adobe AIR/Starling/Away3D/Box2d/Nate might be a good choice.
But I'm really confused about the license model of Adobe AIR and its runtime distribution.
Do I have to pay a license fee or royalties for my games (which include the AIR runtime in order to be stand-alone-apps) when I publish them?
If so, how much are these license fees/royalties?
Does this also concern free apps?
What is the name of the license which I would have to request from Adobe in order to publish my games?
Do I need several licenses when publishing an app on multiple AppStores (Apple/Google/Amzaon) or desktop distribution platforms (Steam/GOG)?
Are there further licensing obstacles which I have to keep in mind when using Flex/AIR for (commercial) game development?
By the way - the FAQ on the product page (http://www.adobe.com/products/air/faq.html) isn't really helping on this topic:
"How much does Adobe AIR cost?" -> "The Adobe AIR runtime and AIR SDK are free for most users."
This answer leaves me with the question: Am I belonging to the "most users" or not?
Therefore it isn't meaningful at all.
I'm also thinking about adding short video sequences as FLVs to the games.
If I understood correctly H.264 and MP3 are currently used as a standard for these video files but aren't free.
Is there a free alternative available for FLVs which can be used in combination with Adobe AIR?
Or did I get something wrong here and don't need to worry about getting sued when using these formats?
Thank you in advance for answering my numerous questions.

That's true.
I'm using a Dell Studio 1537 with 3GB of RAM and Intel Core 2 Duo and it's quick in Lr

Adobe AIR and Adobe´s About Flash -site?

I encountered a strange thing while checking if I have the latest version of Adobe Flash installed.
When I go to About Flash page (http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/) I instantly get the following notification on separate window:
"Adobe AIR
Something went wrong trying to install this application.
Please install the latest version of Adobe AIR from http://www.adobe.com/go/getair and then try again."
I´dont have Adobe AIR installed on my computer. Notification shows up with Firefox and Safari and only when I´m logged in as an Administrator. My operating system is Mac OS X 10.6.
My questions are 1) Has anyone else encountered the same thing? 2) why does About Flash page communicate with Adobe AIR?

You don't need AIR runtime on iOS; see http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/air-on-ios-faq.html#b
