No problem. I had very similar issues when i started learning away3D, especially when they changed to 3.5 when i was using 3.4, and just had to look thru the "HoverCamera3D.as" file to find the updated methods.
As for "Cover.as" you can just download it from this link: http://www.flashmagazine.com/Tutorials/detail/flash_3d_basics/ If you scroll down toward the end of the page, under "Running the sample files" heading, there it has the link to download it.
