I'm trying to install the android extension flashpro_extensionforair_p1_102510

following   AIR for Android - Part 1 - In this first tutorial I show you how to setup your development environment with Flash CS5.

Ive downloaded and save the extension to my desktop i double click the file to run the install it loads the adobe extension manager and it loads installing after a few Min's it times out and gives me an error message

This extension can not be installed, it requires Flash version in range of inclusive between 11 and 11

Ive tried google this error and cannot find a simple fix just wondering if some one can advise me on  how to fix this so i can build my first android flash app

Having the same problem.

Want to install Air for Android (The old version v2) using extention manager on my Windows PC.

It comes up with the error.

Tried to run as admin but was no help.

Installed Flash player 11.3 (best I could get to 11. And still not installing.

In the video are they just showing you howe to open as administrator? Or is there something more than that? (at college can't watch thevideo).

[edit] from the looks of it 2.5 does not work with CS5 or CS6. So would need to get CS4 Flash and then install?

Hello,

That's an odd error, and one I haven't seen before.  You didn't mention which platform you were using, and I just tried this on my Mac with Flash CS5 (patched to the latest version) and it worked as expected.

Here are a couple of things to try.  First, check out this post, there's a link to a youtube video that describes how some people were able to work around installation issues.  Secondly, I would also suggest posting in the Flash Exchange Extensions forum or the Flash General forum and see if anyone else has encountered this error.

Hope this helps,

Chris
