When I try to install adobe Air 3 I always get this message. "You cannot use this version of the application Adobe AIR Installer with this version of Mac OS X." Do I really have to upgrade os x?

Hi,

Adobe won't be developing for 10.5.8 new features (including new runtime) only security relates updates for existing runtimes (Flash 10.3.*/Air 2.7.*). Flash 11/Air 3.0 are only supported on 10.6.8.*/10.7.*, see:

http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/916/cpsid_91694.html#main_system_requirements

There is recent,  lengthy thread on forums with Adobe's employees statements on that subject (support/development for 10.5.* and newer) but I cannot find it quickly as basically forum search is broken/hard to do,

regards,

Peter
