Is there a way to update Flash Professional CS5 / Air to publish for iOS7?

Hi all,

I'm fairly un-knownledgeable about AIR but here's my issue:

I've been developing and prototyping an app in AS3 for some time- publishing to iOS from the iPhone OS Settings in Flash Professional CS5, and testing on my iPhone 4. However, ever since the iOS7 update, when my app runs on my iPhone it simply turns white. Too old a version of AIR, incompatible with iOS7? CS5 has AIR 2.0, and I've gone through steps to try and replace and update it with 3.9, though I can't find any tutorials or info on how to do anything earlier than CS5.5.

Having swapped some files around to get Flash to recognize AIR 3.9, the best I was able to get happen was for Flash to run the app in debug mode but instantly close it.

Any way I can update CS5 to support iOS7 Publishing?

thanks

Just make a batch-file like this, and give it the same name as the swf you want to build ... make sure you point to correct adt-path:

set p12="distribution_certificate.p12"

set p12pass=certpasshere

set provisioningprofile="distribution_profile.mobileprovision"

set projectname=%~n0

set includes=Images Icons Default-Landscape.png Default-Landscape@2x.png

set extensions=""

adt -package -target ipa-ad-hoc -storetype pkcs12 -keystore %p12% -storepass %p12pass% -provisioning-profile %provisioningprofile% %projectname%.ipa %projectname%-app.xml %projectname%.swf -extdir %extensions% %includes%

Your best bet is to start compiling through the command line. Are u on a PC or Mac
