Update AIR to 1.1 to fix Twhirl 0.8.4 update
Twhirl has a handy auto-update feature, which was giving me problems for the past few weeks. Normally, it will notice that there is an update available and ask if you’d like to install it, but the most recent update (0.8.4) didn’t work. I was getting these error messages:
The application could not be installed because the AIR file is damaged. Try obtaining a new AIR file from the application author
An error occurred while updating the application. Try updating it again. If the problem persists, contact the application author.
After a few tries, I was guessing that it might be an AIR problem; this weekend I finally got around to some computer housekeeping, and downloaded the latest AIR runtime (1.1) from Adobe, after which the Twirl update successfully completed. Some less cryptic error messages would be helpful.
