Been working on an iPad app in CS5.5 for a couple weeks and started getting this error today when trying to test. Tried to delete the file, and the new one gives the same result. Pasted the xml into a validator and it validates fine...

5.5 is really starting to feel like a beta. So far, for me, it's been nothing but a PITA and is wasting so much of my time.

I have had this issue intermittently - really painful!!

Make sure you're working from you local drive. I've moved all my working files from our network to my C:/ drive and this resolved the issue.

Are you doing work with Android too? It could be that the descriptor file has some Android specific things in it. Do you get any sort of message about what couldn't be parsed?

No, it doesn't say anything more than 'application descriptor file cannot be parsed'.

I wasn't trying for Android, but if I select Air for Android, the settings panel opens. Any other Air choice (2.5, 2.6, or Air for iOS) produces the error.

I tried deleting the descriptor xml file and it does no good...

I have this suspicion that 5.6 is around the corner, as 5.5 is buggy as hell.

So... anyone have an idea? If I delete the descriptor file, Flash rebuilds it and still says it can't be parsed. I really need this to work... At least CS5 with the packager actually produced a file that worked. 5.5 is rubbish.
