Hi,

I have compiled my AIR app which includes the new icon sizes required for iOS 7 (76x76, 120x120, 152x152 and the Spotlight search result icons 40x40 and 80x80) from the command line using AIR 3.9. Here's the icon section from my app descriptor XML:

<icon>

        <image29x29>icons/icon29x29.png</image29x29>

        <image48x48>icons/icon48x48.png</image48x48>

        <image57x57>icons/icon57x57.png</image57x57>

        <image72x72>icons/icon72x72.png</image72x72>

        <image114x114>icons/icon114x114.png</image114x114>

        <image512x512>icons/icon512x512.png</image512x512>

        <image58x58>icons/icon58x58.png</image58x58>

        <image144x144>icons/icon144x144.png</image144x144>

        <!-- Additional app icons for iOS 7 -->

        <image40x40>icons/icon40x40.png</image40x40>

        <image76x76>icons/icon76x76.png</image76x76>

        <image80x80>icons/icon80x80.png</image80x80>

        <image120x120>icons/icon120x120.png</image120x120>

        <image152x152>icons/icon152x152.png</image152x152>

  </icon>

App(.ipa) is installed and running fine in all the all the devices(Ipad,IPhone).While submiting the same app to Apple-App-Store with app-store provision profile, I got three warnings.Those are as follows:

1) WARNING ITMS-9000: "Missing recommended icon file. The bundle does not contain an app icon for iPhone / iPod Touch of exactly '120x120' pixels, in .png format." at SoftwareAssets/SoftwareAsset (MZItmspSoftwareAssetPackage).

2) WARNING ITMS-9000: "Missing recommended icon file. The bundle does not contain an app icon for iPhone / iPod Touch of exactly '76x76' pixels, in .png format." at SoftwareAssets/SoftwareAsset (MZItmspSoftwareAssetPackage).

3) WARNING ITMS-9000: "Missing recommended icon file. The bundle does not contain an app icon for iPhone / iPod Touch of exactly '152x152' pixels, in .png format." at SoftwareAssets/SoftwareAsset (MZItmspSoftwareAssetPackage).

Can someone help me?

Correct answer Pahup

Could you say which one is latest "3.9.0.960" or "3.9.1.1080" version?


3.9.0.960, which was uploaded recently.

I am using Flash CS6 and AIR 18.  I was trying to add extra icon sizes to the app xml and Flash CS6 was overwriting them.  So I did have to resort to setting the app xml file to read only.  Then I had the problem of actually including the icon files which CS6 did not automatically read in (I checked the IPA as a ZIP and the new icons were not there).  So I tried adding the icon folder to the included files in the general tab of the AIR Settings in Flash.  When I did that, I got a conflict message when building the IPA.  I tried deleting the built in icons - but no... another error.  So I scratched my head and it came to me.  Store the new icons in an icons2 folder and keep the built in icon sizes in an icons folder.  Then point the read only XML to the appropriate folders.  This built the IPA successfully and all files are there and the xml pointing to them.  Yay.  I have not submitted yet, but hopefully all will be well.  I usually use FlashBuilder but this is updating an app from 2008. ;-)

That was a good idea. When I've had to use CS6 to build an app that included the iOS 7 icons, I would copy the ADT line, add in the missing sizes, and build using Terminal. I got the ADT line from Console, which saved a lot of typing, and chances of getting it wrong!

Not a helpful suggestion I'm afraid but I'm also having issues with CS6 and iOS7 requirements.

Please Adobe fix this and give us an update. We supported your software, even through the dark days of the App store not allowing Air apps. Please give back and give us an air SDK we can use in CS6 (and others)!

Just use the command line ADT tool, it's not that difficult. If you don't find your way around, I can provide a few batch files that might help.

Still, I can't see why the latest 13.1 update of Adobe Flash Pro CC just released a few days ago still does not include the iOS 7 icons. This update would have been a very good opportunity to add them to Flash Pro.

From another topic it seems you have to use the 790 build.

Thank you very much! Problem Solved with this new version of Air 3.9.0.790
