Adobe Air is a huge pain in the butt
Updated my Flash to CS5 a week ago, then upgraded to PS CS5 a day or two ago. The programs run great. BUT whenever I try to use any of my Adobe program's Help files under the Help menu, Adobe Air tries to launch and then gives me an error message "Adobe Air This installation of this application is damaged. Try re-installing or contacting the publisher for assistance."
I tried both. I have uninstalled and then reinstalled Adobe Air several times with no change. Then I called Adobe tech support and spent a total of an hour on the phone while the tech had me reinstall Air again, then reinstall Photoshop. When I still got the same error message he basically sent me to a link to download an adobe product 'Cleaner" to run, gave me a case number and hightailed it off the phone.
The Cleaner tells me it wants to uninstall any or all of Adobe products (none of which are AIR). ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? Arggh!
I have so many other support products installed for AE, PS, etc. that this would take hours.
If you are reading this and you are an Adobe techie, please tell me there is a better solution.
Again, all I need are my Help files to launch when I select them from the adobe program.
