Hi,

I just received my new MacBook last week and now some things aren't working as before - I guess I mised to change some settings. I would be glad i anyone could help.

I have OSX10.9.1 on my MacBook. Flash CC 13.1.0.217 and AIR 3.9.0.1380.

On my old MacBook I was able to choose the AIR-Runtime from GooglePlay or Amazon for my Android App.

Now I can't check this button anymore and I don't know what do do to make this "choosable" again 🙂

Would be great if anyone could help!

Best regards

Jan

I think the runtimes are now always included in the apk, so there is no need to direct the end user where to download AIR from.

Hi Chris,

hm - a customer told me one of my Apps crashed on his Amazon Kindle Fire HD7. He bought on the Google Play Store. I had a previous version of this App where I added the Amazon Runtime. So I gave him a direct link to this (old) Amazon Version and he said this one worked fine. It didn't crahs at startup.

So I guess it would still be good to have the opportunity to Add at least the Amazon Runtime for the Amazon Store.

Before - on my old Mac with OSX 10.7.5 I was able to choose the Runtimes - now I'm no longer able to click the button and to choose Google or Amazon.

Any ideas what might be mising on my new Mac / Flash?

cheers

EDIT: I also sent this customer a new Version (published on my new Mac, latest Flash CC, AIR 3.9.0.1380) He said this version also crashed on his Kindle Fire HD 7. ... so I must be able to choose the Amazon Runtime somehow.

If you install an older version of AIR, you should get that option back. I think the change occured with the 3.7 release.
