Flash CS6 Air to iOS "Edit Application Settings" menu not coming up. No way to publish to iOS.

Using a freshly re-installed and updated Flash CS6 on a 64-bit Macbook OS X 10.9.4.   I've tried various combos of Air 3.2, 3.4, 14, and 15, since yesterday, and I'm getting the same result.  Just two days ago everything about this setup was working flawlessly.  I was compiling and pushing Air apps to my iPad for testing.  Early yesterday morning I tried this and got a message that I didn't save, but was something along the lines of "This installation is not setup for this process" or something.  Since then, when I click on the wrench to bring up the Edit Application Settings menu, nothing happens.  This is true if I click on it next to target in the properties pane, or if I go to Air to iOS Settings from the File dropdown menu. 

The other strange part of this is that if I open some older projects, I can get the menu to come up again. But on the project I was working on it doesn't.  And if I create a new, blank FLA file and go straight to settings, it also doesn't work.  And if I attempt it and it doesn't work, if I close the file that wasn't working it crashes Flash completely. 

It seems like some database or cache is corrupt but I did a full uninstall (using adobe cleaner) and reinstall, and it's still happening.  I found one old thread on google about this same problem, and the solution given was to delete Library/Application Support/iPadApp/Local Store/appDB.db, but I don't even have this file to delete. 

Pretty much can't produce my content like this so I'm a sitting duck.  Any info would be greatly appreciated.  This is my first post here so I apologize if I'm missing something.

very interesting. apple developer support were happy to engage with this and checked out all my certificates and stuff and updated some stuff in Xcode.

but while doing it i discovered that if you move the provisioning profile somewhere else eg a new folder, then you can open the Edit Application Settings  and then add the provisioning profile from the new location and

flash publishes successfully.

at least  that is a workaround - although a pain in the arse!

Bug#3938642 - IOS APPLICATION SETTINGS STUCK, OR CRASHES FLASH

It seems that Adobe doesn't support Flash Cs6 anymore, the problem is that they removed the TLF textfield & many other things.

We need this CS6 fix, we are professional developers working with real client & that's how we make money.

So Adobe, please be professional and give us the fix, it's not so hard to do.

I'm sick of the flash platform, nothing is straightforward, everything needs a workaround to be done.

SO is this the official fix from Adobe? To constantly move the provisioning file to a new folder every time you open the project??

Basically the bug is this. If you have an existing project correctly exporting and publishing with a provision file, and then UPDATE that provision file (because it expires) your app will crash and you can no longer go into the edit settings in your app.

even if you clear out the provision files, save it, so its blank the next time you open it,

whenever you add a provision file, you get the freeze.

maybe it has to do with the new provisioning files by apple??

as mentioned in this thread, a workaround is to just rename the folder so that you can get back into the settings and then republish. ugh.

using CS6 , AIR 16

Just want to let you all know that you can permanently fix this issue by following the below steps

1. Launch Flash CS6 and open the file for which the 'Edit application settings' button is not working

2. Just rename the folder that contains the Certificate and Provisioning profile used in the file

3. Now click on the 'Edit application settings' button

>> 'Edit application settings' button works and the AIR for iOS Settings dialog is up

4. Under Deployment tab choose a valid Certificate and Provisioning profile

5 Click OK and save the file

6 Quit Flash CS6 and relaunch the application

>> The issue will be fixed and the 'Edit application settings' button will continue to work


Please try out the above steps and see if that helps.

Thanks!

Thanks Mohan

as stated already above, yes this fixes it for 1 session

but anytime you reopen your file, you need to continually rename the folder

even following your steps exactly

after relaunching the .fla after you  had renamed the folder, saved, and quit.

when you click into the 'Edit application settings' , it crashes.


so this is not a fix.

Moving your folder doesn't fix the problem. I download a new provisioning profile this morning after adding new test devices. Everything that has been posted I am having problems with too. I can't publish to our test devices. The old fix doesn't work double whammy our developer certificate expired and I set up a new one with a new appID and added our devices plus the new ones.........aaaargggggh......any signs of a fix?

ITS A PROVISIONING PROFILE BUG!!!!

Apple has changed something...
Once you generate a new provisioning or edit an old one, donwload and try to use, this provision will not be recognized

the bundle name will not apear, it will still blank and it will cause this crash!!

Using old provisioning everything works normally, showing bundle schema after select it.. ex: " com.frame2frame.appname"...

SO... its not possible to compile new projects at this moment... we need figure out what is happening with new provision profiles.

HURRY GUYS!!

Hi,

Just want to update you all that we have found the root cause of this issue and is specific to Flash CS6. You can workaround this issue by changing the folder name containing the provisioning profile. This issue has already been addressed in Flash CC.

Thanks!

Sorry I haven't checked back in in a while.

What I ended up doing:

I was able to produce a binary that apple would accept using CS6 and Air15.  I had to publish with Air 15 because of the "Invalid Segment Alignment" rejection message from apple. (That's another story)  Unfortunately Air 15 SDK hosed some code in my app and I was forced, due to time constraints, to upgrade to Flash CC.

What I know works:

The Key for CS6 users it to open a project that uses an older certificate. This will bring back the iOS settings panel. Do not change the profile in this project and then select OK from the iOS settings, or you will loose iOS settings again. The only way I have fount to make this work is to change all the settings except for the provisioning profile, to what you need to publish and press ok. Go back and change the profile and publish, but press cancel when you're done or you will loose iOS settings.

Shot in the dark:

When I signed up for the free trial of CC there was a notice in the cloud manager to update CS6.  I have not tried to publish from CS6 sense I got CC, but perhaps this update might help the missing iOS settings issue.

I hope this is helpful. Good luck all.
