Old Versions of AIR on iOS 8?

[Dan Zen]

Hi folks, I kind of lost track of where AIR is with respect to updates but have about 8 apps using a variety of versions from AIR 3 - AIR 4.  I do not have an Apple device with iOS 8 but have heard my apps are no longer working.  I hunted around but could not find anything specific.  Could someone let me know if there is a cutoff version of AIR for iOS 8?  Thanks!

Looking at the release notes, AIR14 is the first one that references iOS8 with a bug fix. AIR13 has a reference to an iOS7 bug fix. Since AIR jumped from version 4 to 13, and 4 is the last version you used, I would guess that AIR14 is what you would have needed to use to update your apps to work with the latest version of iOS. But since iOS apps are now required to have 64-bit support, you must use a minimum of AIR16 in order for Apple to accept any updates to your apps. Might as well use the latest stable version of AIR, version 17, since it will have bug fixes.

AIR 4 was last version before version changes come. So currently AIR 17 is last in release and 18.0.0.109 in beta from 28th April 2015 http://labs.adobe.com

Thanks - using 18 and it has solved the problem (earlier versions might have worked too - did not try)  Still not sure how Apple works with respect to versions.  Hopefully it will serve my older versions to people with older devices and then my latest to people with newer devices.  I assume that is the case.
