Hi,

If you installed Flex SDK 4.10 using installer [1] recommended by Apache that means that you already have AIR SDK installed together with the Flex SDK (you had an option to select AIR SDK version during installation process). So probably you don't need to install anything and can configure Web-, Desktop- or Mobile-targeted build configuration in IntelliJ IDEA. Please ask if you need more assistance in IntelliJ IDEA project configuration and can't find the answer in embedded help.

You can develop both Flex and Pure ActionScript apps using such Flex+AIR SDK installation. Note that for Pure AS apps AIR SDK bundle that includes ActionScript Compiler 2.0 is enough. Installing standalone AIR SDK (without Flex) is as easy as downloading it from Adobe site [2] and unpacking.

I have been reading a lot  about IntelliJ IDE and thought I would give it a go, 
now I am not a hardened OS level chap, just a app developer

I managed to installIJ with Flex 10 and build a new app,nice, then I thought I 
would have a go with a small AIR app to reformat some JSON file I have

Hum…. As IntelliJ is not integrated with flex like Flash Builder you are left 
to you own resources to get the AIR SDK install before you start

My research turned up many blogs on the subject, so I take it Adobe do not 
provide a AIR SDK installer, you need to install the SDK manually ?

I reading the small print you need to install 4.6 first, this seems the best 
instructions, can anyone point me in a better direction ?
