The AIR 14 SDK can be downloaded here:

http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/air-sdk-download.html

To use that if Flash Pro you would go to the Help menu, and Manage Adobe AIR SDK… In there you can add the folder that you got when you expanded the download you just did.

As for solving the app not loading problem, you will need to get your developer to do a debug test movie to a real device. Or to the iOS Simulator, that would most likely show the same errors.

There hasn’t been an AIR 6.8. If you mean 3.8, you should use a later version, because Apple would reject the app. Version 4 or later would be ok. The current version is AIR 14.

You say that nothing happens, when you touch the icon on your iPad does it become darker, and stay that way? Or does the screen clear, but the app doesn’t run?

If it’s the second option, then most likely there is a script error happening that stops the app before it manages to get going.

If you do a Debug/Debug Movie/On Device via USB, and select your connected iPad, you can then get to see what error is happening.

thanks for your fast answer
sorry for the mistake about the AIR version
it is as you have said , it is 3.8 , but  i can't find version later than 3.8 (only 3.6 and 3.8 available ) in my flash professional CC publish setting  , so what i can do to have later versions in publish settings

about "no thing happens " you asked "does it become darker " what does "it" refer to ? to the screen or to the icon ? any way the screen does not become darker and no thing changed in it .
and about USB , i cannot connect my device  to debug on it because  the application testing is done far a way from developing
