I'm trying to test my Air 3.0 application for iOS in Flash Professional CS5.5.
But since I use the Air 3.0 SDK I can't open my file in the Device Central and opening the file with the normal Flash Player will not track the touch events.
Any ideas how to test an application for ios on a desktop?
You can simulate some of the touch interactions by using a touchpad (like on a laptop) that supports multiple touches, but this will only give you certain things.
Unfortunately you can't really fully test an iOS AIR application without using a device.

I'd like to test apps on device in the same way like on simulator - app runs on real device but I see screen on mac and I can interact with it using mouse. Im just tired of putting phone to my hand all the time. Developing on windows phone allows it, so It would be nice to have it here. Thank you

I just found this. You can control device via mac.
Is there any way through which a flash content can be run on iOS devices?
I am getting two different view.
The link below says that it is possible that we can develop some flash application and run it on iOS devices.
http://www.adobe.com/inspire/2012/12/ios-apps-flash-cs6.html
But on the Apple website link it says running flash applications is not possible on iOS devices.
Can someone clarify if it is possible to run the flash applications on iOS?
You cannot run flash natively on iOS devices. Adobe does, however, provide a tool to run software built with flash on iOS devices.
This works in a similar way to Cordova/ Phonegap in that it takes your code and crosscompiles it into iOS code using other plugins and librarys.
As shown here:

Safari on Mac OS will support Flash
Safari on iOS won’t support Flash.
We will need to write a native iOS app to deliver the functionality
I am tasked with creating a video recording app for mobile devices (iPhone, iPad, Android) where the users are asked to record a short clip using their phones/tablets.
The video is then uploded to a server (either within the same app or a secondary app/site or via email)
Is it possible for an AIR app to record and save quality video and audio to the camera roll/gallery, or alternatively open the built-in video recorder app from the AIR app?
I am stuck between attempting this using Flash CS5.5 and deploy to iOS and Android using one code base, or building native apps and possibly duplicating my workload.
If I attempt the AIR route, will I hit problems with quality/resolution/usability etc? Or should I stick to building a native app? Time is of the essence too :)
I've done lots of research and not really found anything to swing my decision.
Thank in advance.

I'm building an air application (using adt packager) for iPad. I would like tracking some informations in my app so is it possible to embed Google Analytics library for Flash (.swc) in my packaged app ?
otherwise are there alternatives ways ?
Note: Currently, Flash tracking is available for any Flash content embedded in a web page. Tracking of data sent from Adobe Air, Shockwave, or via the Flash IDE (e.g. using Test Movie) is not supported at this time.
got this from https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/other/flashTrackingIntro
I am having better luck with this alternative native extension (ANE) for iOS and Android:
https://github.com/alebianco/ANE-Google-Analytics
GAForFlash (http://code.google.com/p/gaforflash/) v1.0.1.319 did work for me when compiling with AIR and running in ADL on Windows, but seems to work intermittently when compiling and running it on an Android or iOS device. The visual debug feedback reports it always sending correctly, but half the time GA never receives the data.
Both solutions can send both pageViews and events, but neither (currently) works with the new mobile app GA profiles so you need to use a classic web profile.
It is possible. I have it running in my pure AS3 AIR project for mobile.
See http://code.google.com/p/gaforflash/ there is a swc you can use there.
Do i have to write different applications for Blackberry touch devices and Blackberry non-touch devices? or single application works for both?
Any suggestions for writing code for device using trackball or touch or both?
Suggest some references for the same.
Very much confused regarding
Which OS is to be targeted.
What devices should we acquire from client for testing the application?
I'm assuming we're talking about Java apps here. If so, the same application will work on both touchscreen and non-touchscreen devices. You can use the Touchscreen.isSupported() API to determine what kind of device you're on.
