UPDATE: This program is no longer needed as of the latest release of Flex Builder. The source does include an actionscript class for reading and writing to standard INI files that I whipped up for this. Go ahead and grab the source if you have the need for it. Regards Steven
This problem may not effect that many people, but because of a bug you can’t profile your AIR application on the Mac without editing the mm.cfg file. It wouldn’t be that bad but you have to remove and add a line to enable the profiling and when done remove the line so that debugging will work again.
Because the new profiling feature is one of the best new features in Flex Builder and personally one I don’t know how i ever lived without. (I wish i had a time machine right now) I’ve made a little AIR app that quickly switches you between Debug and Profiling at the click of a button. It pulls your workspaces from your flex pref file so everything should be automatic.

Source is available just in case you have some crazy setup.
Its a throw away, but good enough to get you by until the next release.
