InDesign CS6 Folio Builder Plugin isn't working!

I have successfully downloaded & installed the most recent Folio Builder update from the Adobe site, Id keeps telling me "You do not have a compatible Digital Publishing Plug-in. Click here to download the Folio Producer tools." under the Folio Builder tab.
Anyone else run into this problem? Anyone know how to fix?
Note: I already tried manually quitting my CS6ServiceManager in my Activity Monitor application then reinstalling the Plugin. Did not work!

Moved to DPS forum.

InDesign CS6 folio builder/links question. For iPad app.

Hi there. I am a graphic designer who is very experienced in InDesign using the software for print purposes. I am now branching out with the capacities CS6 has and am learning to design (mainly presentation) apps for the iPad. So, I've designed a portfolio as a multiple page document with both portrait and landscape page orientations. The app would consist of a starter page which would be a load of animation exported as swf, and imported back into InDesign as HTML5, or MP4, or however (I haven't nailed this yet as I'm leaving this till last as this page will serve as a screen saver until swiped). When the viewer swipes page 1 they will enter into the main 'contents' page with a load of thumbnails of clients I have and within those clients a load of case studies. So, I've roughly designed the layout and will need to build but I need to know what I'm limited by.
Page 1 title page,
page 2 contents (with scrollable bar with links to other pages)
page 3 will be the 1st client and will need approx 6 case studies, which I presume I'll need to make extra pages. And so on.
Anyhow, I digress – the question I ask is that to upload and test on the iPad through content viewer I obviously need to upload the articles as separate pages (incorporating both H & V orientations) but would I make the links from my 'contents' page when the document was a multiple page document (ie in it's original state) or would I apply these links (as buttons I presume rather than hyperlinks) when the articles have been separated and I'm working with page 01, 02, 03 etc in folio builder?. I know how how to create buttons from thumbnails but I can't work out how to link them to their desired targets (next page/page no/ etc etc) for the record I want to present my work on an iPad as an app, without relying on WIFI or 3G. Last question (phew) Is I have a picture frame with a slideshow in - is it possible for the viewer to click these and open them in full screen mode and flick/navigate through that way? then click via a cross in the top corner back to the screen they were on. Very grateful for any replies – It's a steep learning curve from print! Steve C, London, England

Steve,
we have many resources, from step-by-step tutorials to videos and more at our DPS Developer Center at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/digitalpublishingsuite.html.
There is also a very cool (and free) app called DPS Tips with many examples on using interactive overlays in DPS: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/digital-publishing-suite-tips/id436199090?mt=8
The iPad Publishing Companion Guide PDF is available on the DPS Dashboard (https://digitalpublishing.acrobat.com). The link to download the Companion Guide is available in the "Additional Resources" section on the Dashboard.
I think that these resources will provide answers to most of your questions.

InDesign CS6 Folio Builder Crashes Version 32.0.0

Hi,
I've only just installed the DPS Desktop Tools for InDesign CS6 and the installation worked perfectly although upon opening Folio Builder in InDesign it results in the program crashing...
So far I've re installed InDesign I've tried a few other solutions although none seem to be relevant to this version 32.0.0
It wouldn't be that big a deal although I need the Folio Builder tool for my current assessment.. Not being able to work on it at home is going to be detrimental to the end result
Hope someone can help me!

Hi Bob
We're actually using your Lynda tutorial for our training, it's such a great resource thank you.
Here's a thread I was reading which wasn't helpful for myself although I did try some solutions that were relevant to me.
Re: InDesign CS 6 Folio Builder crashing
Solutions tried:
- Re installing InDesign CS6
- Downloaded DPS updates directly from Adobe
- One post suggested deleting my cache file/folders which would result in any folios I've made deleted however this
is the first time I've used the DPS tools in Adobe so I didn't worry.
- I've also deleted/reset my preferences
Is there anything else you can suggest?

InDesign CS6: The "find" function doesn't work in "Open a file" dialog box...

I am using CS6 on OSX 10.7.5. When I try to search in the OPEN DIALOG box, it NEVER lists anything, not even a close match. If I however search the SEARCH feature on OSX it always finds what I'm looking for. Is there a setting that I have to change to get this to work or is it a glitch? thanks so much!

Exact same issue here.
CS6, OSX 10.8.3.

IndesignCS6 folio builder

HI , I Log in Indesign CS6 Folio Builder,appeared "Unable to connect to the network and try again" error.
What can I do ?

Hi John,
I am still experiencing issues with my app. Your last message told me to "call up directly" for official support, but there doesn't seem to be a number for Australia.
I'm now being told that I need to update my app in the App store, but this isn't right.

Folio builder update issue

Was prompted to update folio builder on my Windows 7 PC running InDesign CS5.5. Did so, restarted, launched InDesign and once again was prompted to access folio builder update. Tried it again, same result.
Tried updating both folio producer and folio builder, got the same results.
Still getting the prompt "A newer version of Folio Builder is available for download."
Any ideas on steps to rectify?
Thx

I found a solution to my problem, which is kind of similar. Hopefully this can help others who get the update folio builder request, even when its been updated.
I found Indesign CS6 + Folio Builder has some type of glitch on my Windows 7 machine. If the folio builder window is open when I open Indesign, it will close as soon as Indesign starts up. When I open the Folio Builder panel it will always ask me to update the folio builder, even though it is fully updated.
The solution for me, is to make sure the folio builder panel is always closed when I close down Indesign. In this way when Indesign is opened, the folio builder panel does not open automatically. I then wait for a few seconds after Indesign has fully opened. Once it's fully open and ready to go, I open the folio builder panel and viola the folio builder panel opens correctly and I'm signed in.

Can't sign into Folio Builder CS6.

Hi.
I have been strugling with this issue all day. I am currently on Adobe Indesign CS6 (Not the cloud version) and I installed Adobe Folio Builder successfully. Everything works fine except that I cannot sign into folio builder. When I click on the sign in button nothing happens. I have looked into other posts from people with the same problem but none of the solutions that worked for them have worked for me. I tried clearing my preferences, reinstalling Desktop tools a few times and reinstalling adobe application manager but no luck. PLEASEEEEE Help!

You will receive replies (like this one). Here's the link:

Passwort-Limitation in InDesign Folio Builder

Hi,
I have created a DPS user that has a 13 Digit password (was is allowed to create when setting up the account). I have already created a Viewer-App and submittet it to the iTunes store that uses that account. The Viewer-App is already in Review and will also show and sell first folios within the next hours.
The Problem is: if I want to login with that user via CS6 Folio Builder, I am limited to 6-12 chars by the desktop software.
What I did:
- changed the password
- did all InDesign work
- changed it back to make the app work
=> success!
But for further actions, how can i overcome this in a reasonable way?
NO-Options:
- change the App with new password and wait another 7 days to get a review
Bad-Options i already figured out:
- Create Folios online using the correct user, others via InDesign and then Crosslink Articles into the folios
- wait the App to be Ready and selling, send a new app with new password, change password short before review and approval, as soon as approved works, meanwhile: no downloads
Well, let's say it this way: why the hell is InDesign Folio Builder limiting me? Is there a workaround on that level?
cheers

To complete this thread for all maybe experiencing a similar problem:
I am not sure if we are talking about the same thing. If I create the Viewer-App using DPS Viewer Builder, already on the first screen I am asked to enter
- a Titel-ID and a Password. The Help says: This password is used to login when folios for this app are published (I do not know the exact enhlish text as I have a german version)
For me, this seems very much as the Viewer App when DOWNLOADING folios signs into the Folio Distribution server @Adobe and gets the content.
My evidence:
- Viewer App showed In-App purchases, I could purchase
- but when starting the download, it was hanging forever. After changing the passwort, I could download the purchase
If course, already downloaded content stays available.
My biggest problem is the itunes Review timespan. I dare not to change anything in the app because that might reschedule another 7 days waiting. Just for "trying out" experiments, that is a hard decision to take.
So, i thought i can solve the problem like this:
- keep the (logical) Folio/App Account (with 13 digits) that owns the folio as it is and use another creative account (personal) to edit the folio.
- after giving access to tha personal account, that person can see the folios in InDesign Folio Builder
- BUT: even it is the SAME COMPUTER the Folio Builder says, that there is no InDesign Files for the folio. HELL!
I think is this was bootstrapped the wrong way, it is hard to navigate out again. Here's what we did:
- created a technical account, lets say "magazine@....."
- used that account to creare the Folio and Inesign files, did all editing with it
Because of the password problem, the idea is now, to use john@..... as the creative designer. How can John get access to the folios for editing (SAME COMPUTER)
Nevertheless: Adobe, please remove the 12 digits limitation in Folio Builder Login Screen if there is no hard need for it
cheers

Folio preview does not work!! since Mandatory Folio Builder Panel update!

hi everyone
my grafic team told me that the folio preview in indesign does not work anymore since the required folio builder panel update!
working on mac and cs 5
please help
best regards michael

I just spoke with a member of our team and they were able to reproduce this issue: invoking folio preview from the file menu brings up an empty panel instead of launching the desktop preview tool. Thanks for bringing it to our attention! There are two ways you can work around this and get the desktop preview application up with your content:
1) Use the preview button in the Folio Builder panel (this will preview the entire folio)
2) Use the preview button in the Overlay Creator panel (this will preview the active InDesign document)
This problem only affects CS5 and CS5.5. If you are on CS6 the menu will work correctly.

Cant log into folio builder with in InDesign

I am logged into Adobe and the DPS site no problems but to log into it in the folio builder pannel in InDesign I get this message
Sign In has failed.
[svr.Unknown]
If i put in the wrong address then I get a messge that the iser ID and password dont match
What is the deal?

I have found a solution and I am posting it here because I had trouble finding it...
Originally I downloaded
AdobeDigitalPublishing-All.zip
and had all the correct ids but it did not work. I found a thread where someone suggested that the person go to another place here http://help.adobe.com/en_US/digitalpubsuite/using/WS67cb9e293e2f1f60-21ba9a4512e5e5e0b8d-7 ffe.html and download
Folio Producer tools for InDesign CS5
Folio Builder panel for InDesign CS5
once I did both of those I am now up and running.
When I downloaded All.zip I ran it and I had the folio panel but couldnt get on. Then when I downloaded the tools first it took away the folio builder panel from indesign but when I added the second one clearly named Folio Builder Panel logically my panel was back the only difference was now I could sign in instantly. I noticed my shortcut to the viewer that had installed automatically on my desktop was gone but it was still in my start menu.
It would seem the all.zip would have everything but it clearly didnt and it only had one setup.exe file and I ran it.
Hope this helps!

ID no longer sees my iPad via Folio Builder

I've run into an issue where InDesign CS6 no longer sees my iPad via Folio Builder. It was working perfectly for weeks during my app build. Was able to conduct unit tests throughout build but for some reason InDesign no longer sees the iPad. When I connect the iPad to my macbook pro via usb, iTunes detects and recognizes it. I have all the recent software updates installed. I even reinstalled Adobe Viewer app. I make sure Adobe Viewer is running on my iPad and cable is connected. Any suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated.

Folio Builder Updates

In CS6, Folio Builder says to run Updates, but when I do, everything is already up-to-date. What else can I check to get it working?

Check if Updates are enabled or not for InDesign CS6 under Help. If “Updates” is grayed out then you need to enable them on this machine.
To enable updates: Navigate to
(Mac) “<Startup Disk>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/AAMUpdaterInventory/1.0/”
(WIN) “C:\Program files\common files\adobe\AAMUpdaterInventory\1.0\”, If in case it’s InDesign (64 bit), then "C:\Program files(x86)\common files\adobe\AAMUpdaterInventory\1.0\"
Open “AdobeUpdaterAdminPrefs.dat” file in TextEditor or Notepad and change <Suppressed>1</Suppressed> to <Suppressed>0</Suppressed>, or create one if it’s not there with below text and save it as AdobeUpdaterAdminPrefs.dat to above location.
     <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
         <Preferences>
               <Suppressed>0</Suppressed>
         </Preferences>
Try installing update again.
