You must package your applications as Apps:

Internet is full of tutorials:

For iOS, you will need to enroll in Apple's iOS Developer Program and access the Provisioning Profile for needed certificates.

You can also package your SWF using the ADT command line packager.

Download AIR 3.0 SDK. Assure JRE, or use the one from Flash Builder. Execute adt to package your SWF to an IPA:

adt -package -target [ipa-test | ipa-debug | ipa-app-store | ipa-ad-hoc]
    -keystore iosPrivateKey.p12 -storetype pkcs12 -storepass qwerty12
    -provisioning-profile ios.mobileprovision
    HelloWorld.ipa
    HelloWorld-app.xml
    HelloWorld.swf icons Default.png

Same as above

Flash Professional CS5.5 has iOS export functionality. It creates an app from your code that can be played on iPad or iPhone.

It's AS3 only, but it's a lot easier to port an application to a different ActionScript version than to a completely new environment.

You'll also need an Apple developer account.

Here's a video showing the whole process, from a Flash file to a working iOS app:
