Existing AIR Applications Won't Run in Flex 3? Quick Fix.
This is a quick post on a simple problem in case anyone runs into this issue and can't determine the reason. I had existing AIR applications set up in my beta install of Flex 3. As recommended by the installer, I removed the beta before installing the final version of Flex 3 released yesterday. ObviouslyI open Flex 3 for the first time, my pre-existing projects are missing. To import them with the prior settings, you simply go to File > Import > Flex Project, choose the "Project Folder" option and browse to the project folder location.
The catch is that since I also updated my install of AIR to the final version I was finding that hitting "Run" had no result...nothing happened. Well, what I needed to do was open the AIR application's XML descriptor file and change the line that read:
<application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/1.0.M6">
...(for the last public AIR beta) to:
<application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/1.0">
...for the current 1.0 final release.

Sorry for confusing.I'm just a newbie.I'm trying to do with an AIR application simple hello world., fortunately i just able to resolve problem. I fix it by ending/kill existing process (adl.exe) in windows task manager then rerun the AIR app again.
Thanks for this posting. It fixed my problem.
