I also installed umbraco 4.7. Then I install this package to it, there are no problems. Web.config and Dashboard.config changed, and on Media tab I saw Install button and install Desktop media uploader. I read: "Once you have Desktop Media Uploader installed, you can upload files to any Umbraco site that has the Desktop Media Uploader package installed. You only need to download the desktop app once. The desktop app will automatically configure itself to whichever site you are connected to.". It means, that I can input url to my "umbraco v 4.5-site"(package for it already installed), user and password and It must work? Then I do it I get "invalid login" error!!!!! Help me, please!!!!
Can you tell me if you have the latest flash plugin installed?
Also, I'm not sure I understood your last post. Did you install Umbraco 4.7 and then Install DMU on the same site? As you don't need to install DMU on a 4.7 site, it already comes preinstalled. If you have an older version of the DMU desktop app, you may actually need to upgrade it if you are trying to connect to an Umbraco 4.7 site as the location of the webservice it uses has moved internally.
If none of this helps, can you please try explaining your issue more clearly.
If all you want to do is get the DMU desktop app installed, you can just run the .air file in the /umbraco/plugins/TheOutfield/DesktopMediaUploader directly by double clicking on it.
In terms of getting the badge to show, that does seem very weird. Maybe you need to add a mimetype for .swf? but then I would imagine if you navigate to the swf direct, that shouldn't work either. It may be worth installing something like Fiddler to see what is going on behind the scenes when the page is loading, to see if any resources are missing?
Don't see Install button on Media tab
I installed DesktopMediaUploader, manually add MIME type .air and following text to Dashboard.config
<section alias="DesktopMediaUploader">
<areas>
<area>media</area>
</areas>
<tab caption="Desktop Media Uploader">
<control>/usercontrols/desktopmediauploader/dashboard.ascx</control>
</tab>
</section>
Now I when I click Media node I see DesktopMediaUploader tab without INSTALL button. (((((
umbraco v 4.5.2 (Assembly version: 1.0.4031.36219)
Strange. Do you have the latest Flash brower plugin installed?
Cheers

I have Adobe Flash Player 10.2.
I didn't know that on Umbraco 4.7 DMU package is preinstalled. Thanks.
I need DMU to work on Umbraco 4.5.2. I installed package and saw on media tab the following.
http://localhost/mysitename.ru/umbraco/plugins/TheOutfield/DesktopMediaUploader/AIRInstallBadge.swf shows flash. But it need a lot of parameters and I don't know how to pass them correctly.
If all you want to do is get the DMU desktop app installed, you can just run the .air file in the /umbraco/plugins/TheOutfield/DesktopMediaUploader directly by double clicking on it.
