Can't install published Adobe AIR application - air

Hi I create a flash game using adobe flash player 6 (AIR).
If I test it using "Test Scene", it run very well.
I set it to run on Adobe AIR desktop target 3.2 (my PC is 4.0)
I publish the game in format .air and create a certificate.
The problem : I can't install my game (in AIR package) on my computer.
The warning is:The application could not be installed because the installer file is damaged. Try obtaining a new installer file from the application author.
I already use administrator account but it does n't work. Can you help me??

I found the solution. It is because my system clock is not accurate and I use self certificate (using time stamp).
So, I must repair my system clock and publish adobe AIR application again with new certificate.

windows phone 8 sdk certificates expired

I have tried to install wp8 sdk on my windows 8 laptop, but everytime I try to do so, the installation stops with an error saying that some of the certificates expired. Then the installation crashes and I need to start it again. I have already tried multiple ways of reinstalling SDK even following Microsoft's advice to install and run the following files from the download folder:
Download the Win8SharedSDKTools.msi package and install it.
Download the Windows_SDK/69661e20556b3ca9456b946c2c881ddd.cab package
Download the Windows_SDK/e072b3b3d3164e26b63338dce51862a7.cab package
Download the Windows_SDK/e3d1b35aecfccda1b4af6fe5988ac4be.cab package
But this issue with certificates continues to come up.
Is there any way of overcoming this problem?
What is wrong with these certificates and what these certificates stand for?
Is there a problem with my laptop?
Thanks!
The only workaround I know so far is changing the date of your computer back to June before launching the installation. Once the SDK is installed, you can switch your system back to the current date.
yes. Change the date August 1 and install the windows SDK. once you successfully installed the vs you can change your date. this is the only problem.

Debugging Adobe AIR apps on Kindle Fire

Possible?
I think to do this I need to upgrade the AIR runtime on the Fire to 3, but the version in the app store won't install. I can't create an AIR apk that is both captive runtime and debug that I know of, so the debug version of the app has to run on the AIR runtime installed. Since the Fire comes with 2.7, 3.x apps won't run in debug mode.
Has anyone managed to get AIR 3 running on a Fire without using captive runtime?
To update AIR on your KF you have to get root privileges. Also keep in mind that android build on KF doesn't have any copy command (it cut off). So the best way I found is to flash your KF with modified (pre-rooted) stock version and then install new air.
Get pre-rooted stock version (I took it here). IMPORTANT: it installs via TWRP, google how to install TWRP on KF.
Put downloaded .zip and air_runtime.apk (latest AIR version) in the root of KF.
Reboot in Recovery mode (TWRP should load)
Flash this version.
On your PC open cmd and run "adb shell" (make sure you see your device in list when run "adb devices" otherwise check drivers).
Run "su" (if you downloaded secure version).
In shell go to sdcard ("ls" to get list of files/folders and "cd folder_name" to get into) and run "install air_runtime.apk /system/app/air_runtime.apk" (I think you can just run "install /sdcard/folder_with_air/air_runtime.apk /system/app/air_runtime.apk").
(7a. If it tells you that can't install because of file already exist, run the following two commands: "mount -o remount rw /system" (mount 'system' with read/write rights) and "mv /system/app/air_runtime.apk /system/app/air_runtime.bak" (rename air_runtime.apk into air_runtime.bak). Then repeat step 7.)
In KF just run (install) air_runtime.apk (use any file explorer, e.g. download ES File Explorer from Amazon).
Check AIR version in Applications.
That's all. Looks a bit complex, but in real it takes about 4-5 mins for me to update AIR (BUT I have TWRP already installed).
Hope it helps.
UPD. After your Kindle updates itself (version 6.3.1 currently the latest) you'll lose you SU privileges. AIR also will be rolled back to 2.7. You can prevent KF auto-updates (search on xda how to do it) or flash actual pre-rooted version (it gives you several months without problems).

How do I Install the Crunch app for Adobe Air?

I never used anything Air but Adobe Muse and Adobe Edge, and they both have installer packages.
I'm running Windows 7 and I followed these steps below.
Download crunchapp from http://crunchapp.net/ and extract to any location
Install Adobe Air SDK by going to their site.
Unzip it to appropriate folder (I extracted to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe AIR SDK)
Right-click on "My Computer" in the Start menu and select Properties.
Click on "Advanced System Settings" on the left hand side menu
Select "Environment Variables" and add two new system variables as below
adl
[change path to your extracted Adobe AIR SDK\bin\adl.exe file]
(I used - C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe AIR SDK\bin\adl.exe )
adt
[change path to your extracted Adobe AIR SDK\bin\adt.bat file]
(I used - C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe AIR SDK\bin\adt.bat )
RESTART PC (this caught me out)
Open command Line Interface and navigation to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe AIR SDK\bin\
type in adl [full path to Crunch folder]application.xml
Enjoy Crunch!!!!

In my Windows machine, this is what I did just now (because, I also did not know where to start):
You need to download the Adobe Air SDK
Extract its content and I followed this: http://chisflorinel.blogspot.com/2007/06/installing-adobe-air-on-windows-vista.html
After that, I opened my command line, then went to the Crunch! folder, then type the command:
adl application.xml

Do AIR apps require the plug-ins (Flash, Acrobat) to run Flash swfs or display PDFs?

This may be a stupid question but I can't seem to find a clear cut answer anywhere. I would like to know:
Can AIR apps display swfs without the Flash player installed on the user's machine?
Can AIR apps display PDFs without Acrobat reader (or some similar PDF viewer)?
From what I can find, the Flash Player is not required on the target machine to run swfs from within an AIR app. Is this correct?
And it also seems that you do require Acrobat 8 or greater installed on the target machine to view PDFs. Is this correct?
Any help clearing this up would be great.
Yes, an AIR app can load an swf without having the user to install Flash Player plug in or Flash standalone player.
No, AIR apps need Acrobat Reader installed. I don't think any other PDF Viewer will do.
You will need to have Adobe Acrobat Reader 8.1 or higher installed as "AIR applications render PDF content using the HTMLLoader class, the WebKit engine, and the AdobeĀ® ReaderĀ® browser plug-in."
Regarding the PDF support, check this link for a detailed information.

Adobe Air 1.5.2 and Flash Builder

Recently I'm working on some air stuff, and I am using Flash Builder and latest Nightly build SDK in order to compile my application ( I even used stable version before this stage ), but when ever I export the final air file from the Flash Builder, the air file giving me this error message :
The application could not be installed because the AIR file is damaged. Try obtaining a new AIR file from the application author.
I wounder what's wrong about my file?! I even changed the namespace to other versions like 1.5.1 and 1.5 but none of them will do the trick! Any one has any idea?!
If you try logging the application install it might give you more info and troubleshooting information - http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/403/kb403123.html
