Will dropped Adobe Air support affect Adobe Story on Linux?

I use Ubuntu 11.04 on my notebook and use it heavily when writing (absolutely love Story by the way). I have read that Adobe is dropping Air support for Linux. Will the Adobe Story Desktop Client fail to work when a new version of Adobe Air comes out? I'm wondering about the long term.

My name is Rob Christensen and I work on the Flash Player and AIR team. Recently, we announced our plans to no longer support Linux versions of Adobe AIR. For additional information, see this blog post: http://blogs.adobe.com/flashplayer/2011/06/adobe-air-and-linux-increasing-distribution-on- devices.html
Existing AIR applications will continue to work on Linux PCs provided they target AIR 2.6 or below. Archived builds of the Adobe AIR runtime for Linux can be found on this page: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/853/cpsid_85304.html -- however, please note that these older versions do not contain the list compatibility and security updates.

  • Will there be future support from Adobe AIR for Desktop native Applications

    We have a desktop native application developed using Flex SDK 4.1 and running on Adobe AIR. Now as Adobe has donated Flex SDk to Apache we are concerned about the future of this application. If we rescale our application with new versions of Flex SDk released by Apache, in future will the new versions of Adobe AIR support it? As I have read in Adobe Forums that Adobe is more concentrated on providing HTML5 support in Adobe AIR, and not working for Flex support anymore, can we face any problems going forward with this combination?

  • Adobe Story Will Not Update

    Hello.
    I have been trying for the longest time to get back on to Adobe Story to continue working on a screenplay I am writing. But all I ever get when clicking on it is that it insists on updating. After it does that, Adobe Air says it's preparing to start loading then stops and a warning pops up, saying "Sorry, and error has occured. This application cannot be installed because this installer has been misconfigured. Please contact the application author for assistance."
    When I click the CLOSE button, the whole thing starts over from the beginning: Adobe Story installs an update, Adobe Air pops up and loads something, then stops and the warning shows up. Then it repeats AGAIN. I once spent several hours on this with no change. What is this?
    I noticed in the discussion forums that others are having problems on this. I don't want to delete Adobe Story because I do have a screenplay already in the works and am afraid it will all get deleted. This is not an option for me, that cannot happen. I also do not have the foggiest idea when I downloaded Story in the first place, so I can't be sure if it was before all the new updates or not. Although I thought it was, maybe it wasn't.
    I need help on this severly. Please, please, please help me not lose my work. How do I get passed this?

    Thank you but, since I did that when I try to sign in it says "ERROR: Sorry, your Story free subscription does not allow access to this application. Please upgrade your subscription." Then my options below are cancel or upgrade now.  I don't want to upgrade. And I still don't know if my script is still there or not. A lot of times I've had to work on it offline. Even though I saved it, has it been deleted? Please tell me it hasn't been. I log on to my account on the adobe sight and all my work is gone. Same with the app version.
    What do I do now? I've never had this problem before and it's a little frustrating, off putting and scary. (Scary as in I've lost all my work.)

  • Adobe Story support for Chromebook or Android

    Any word on Adobe Story support for Chromebook or Android? From what I understand ChromeOS is not much more than an HTML5 browser? I want to get one of the new 8 hour Haswell powered Chromebook laptops this Holiday season under $300. I can understand delaying Adobe Story development on ChromeOS as it is still very small, but Android? There's over 1.5 million Android activations everyday. That's more than the entire population of Canada every month:) .. hard to understand turning a blind eye to these numbers much longer.

    UPDATE the web version of Adobe Story runs perfectly on Chromebook, ACER C720 2848 with 2GBs of RAM $199.99 Amazon. Remember to disable any Chrome extensions you might have installed that disable Flash, for instance Flash Block. Also double clicking on the project will not open it, instead click the tiny twirl down triangle next to the Project's name and select, Open from the menu. I wasn't able to install the desktop version (no surprise). This is good news for us that would like a cheap "beater" laptop for scripting that runs more than 8 hours. Now if we only had an Android version of Adobe Story...

  • Could Adobe please advise if they will be adding tethering support for Nikon D600

    Could Adobe please advise if they will be adding tethering support for Nikon D600 as it is instrumental to our decison regarding purchase.
    Many thanks

    Nobody is happy with the answer about old software not getting updated with new cameras, but if you look into it, Adobe had to lay off about half their employees over the past few years to keep the company viable in the declining economy, so they don’t have extra people to update and test plug-ins for non-current versions, and if they did, then some people wouldn’t buy the newer version and they’d have even less money.
    Adobe has only just gotten the D600 supported for raw format in their current beta version of LR, which affects everyone with a D600, and if they had to wait for Nikon for supply and SDK and also have to prioritize their work to keep things on schedule, tethering is likely to lag behind raw-file support for any particular camera.  Apple controls their entire computer environment, hardware and software, so it’s not surprising they can implement tethered capture from day one, but Adobe must figure things out for OSes they don’t own, both Mac and PC, so they rely on waiting for Nikon to do things for them, and then figuring out how to get it to work.
    Well boo hoo for Adobe ... life sure is tough for them ... if they can't handle the load maybe they should get out of the business of software development ... They can't be all that worried about revenue to support Lightroom development or they wouldn't have reduced the price of the full version by 50% and the upgrade price by 20% ... it was a less than smart move considering they have been bragging for the past couple of years about how many more folks use Lightroom vs. other competitive options ...
    Aperture 3, Capture One both have tether support for the D600 ... and many more cameras than are supported by Lightroom ... those developers are working and engineering solutions in the very same economy as Adobe (and C1 supports both platforms as well, costs much more than Lr and employs far fewer engineers) ... why aren't they suffering from the same lack of support? ... or using the camera makers to deflect blame for the lack of results?
    Excuses are not solutions ...

  • Unable to launch adobe story app, because adobe air installer fails

    Hi,
    I am having problems launching the adobe story app. Everytime I try to open it it tries to update and it then launches the adobe air installer which always fails and I get the following message: Sorry, an error has occurred. The application could not be installed because the installer file is damaged. Try obtaining a new installer file from the application author.
    If I close the message it launches Adobe Story and it happens again, and it goes into an endless loop.
    I've re-installed the latest version of Adobe air on my computer, and it still happens. I am able to login to Adobe Story on the webrowser but there's a lot of files missing. From reading the discussions I'm thinking this might be because its a free account, and the app is no longer available, and since it didn't sync for a long time.
    If this is the case, is there a way to recover the missing files without upgrading to a paid account?
    I don't want to pay for an account and discover that the files are still missing.
    or is this a completely different issue?
    In case this information is relevant I use an iMac with Mac OS X version 10.7.4, 3.1 GHz Intel Core i5 Processor, 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3 Memory.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    We have recently pushed out a new build of Adobe Story.
    If the update is still failing, please mail me(roverma <at> adobe <dot> com) the contents of AIR installation logs.
    You can get the contents of the install log using the following steps:
    Mac OS X
    Open the Console application from the Applications/Utilities folder.
    Select System.log from the log list on the left.
    In the String Matching filter field, type Adobe AIR.
    Select all, and then copy and paste into a text file.
    Thanks

  • Adobe AIR support for Windows RT and USB

    We want to develop an cross platform application. We found that Adobe AIR supports cross platform development for Windows, iOS and Android.
    We wanted to know wheather
    1) reading and writing to USB port is possible with Adobe AIR?
    2) Adobe AIR has support for Windows RT development?
    Thanks in advance.

    I wrote before about my concerns with Adobe AIR, but here is a short summary:
    - no road map and no clear plans for the platform,
    - support of new devices is often late, Intel chipsets are not supported on Android,
    - debugging on a device is a pain,
    - inadequate build times for iOS, app package is quite large,
    - list of mobile UI components is very limited and UI experience is far from native,
    - native extensions are a possibility but still far from perfect (imagine using three very different development platforms all in one app), no debugging,
    - performance is not good if you use a lot of Spark components in your app,
    - Flash Builder is pretty bad as the development environment,
    - ActionScript3 is a poor, outdated language that encourages bad coding practices.
    I ruled out HTML5 frameworks for the same reason as you stated above. Last few months I've been working with Xamarin MonoTouch and I think it is perfect for my projects. 100% native UI experience, about 80% of the code is shared among the platforms, iOS, MacOSX, Android and Windows 8/RT are supported. Took me about 2 months to convert my 2Mb ActionScript Adobe AIR project to Xamarin MonoTouch (iOS). The entire process was fun and painless. Now thinking to port to MacOSX and Android. My iOS app is already at the App Store, no major complains so far.
    On a down side, Xamarin is expensive for an indie developer with low revenues. You need to pay $300 per year per each platform (iOS, Android, Mac). Plus, you need to develop UI layer separately for each platform, so only part of the code is shared. But I decided it is a way to go for my projects and it's been a very positive experience so far.
    As for my professional development, Xamarin offers quite a bit more as well. I get to work with C#, .NET, iOS SDK, Android SDK all in one platform. With Adobe tools you only get to know ActionScript and Flex/Spark framework. Very rarely I see that as a desired qualification. It is like a trap. Your boss tells you to develop a few projects with Adobe tools, it sucks you in for a few years and suddenly you realize that your market value declined dramatically and there is no easy way out of this mess.
