IPad 1 and Adobe Viewer Conflict

Hy there,
I am at the last steps on publishing an Adobe DPS Single Edition App, to Apple.
As i have tried to update the version of the Adobe Viewer on my iPad on the App Store it was rejected, informing that my device only supports up to the System Version: 5.1.1.
1) Can i expect any version of the Adobe Viewer to work compatible with my iPad 1, using a Folio created with the latest version of Indesign and Adobe DPS as a creative cloud subscriber?
I already have the Development ipa file from DPS App Builder downloaded to my Mac and as i try to sync my iPad to run the development App it is also rejected due to system version conflict .
I really need to make the final tests before publishing to Apple as the client is waiting.
2) Do you have any suggestion for a solution on my topic?
Thanks a lot,
Alex

Very very bad news... this has created a big trouble to me because I told to a customer that I was able to create app for Ipad 1 ...
Actually when I read this information I understand that you are talking about APP (and what is a "single edition app" ???).
R28 DPS App Builder will create V28 and V27 apps. Will the V28 app not work on iPad1?
Correct. With R28 DPS App Builder, you can create a V27 app that would continue to work on iOS 5, and thus, on iPad1. Adobe DPS will certify this V27 app on iOS 7 as well. However, this app will neither take advantage of the significant UI upgrades that Apple has made in iOS 7 nor the AirDrop feature.

Desktop Viewer and iPad Adobe Viewer conflict on video previews

Steps:
Place .mov file in InDesign layout. Ignore the warnings about .mov file not for SWF output, only PDF. Be sad there is no poster.
Place .f4v file on same page in InDesign. Be happy that there are no warnings. Be happy there is a poster.
Use desktop Content viewer to preview the page. The .f4v file plays as desired. Image moves with controller. The .mov file controller moves but there is only a black screen, no image.
Use Adobe Viewer on iPad to preview the page. The .f4v file is a static picture with no video controls or images. The .mov file plays but there was no poster.
I was told that the desktob Content viewer is only for the most "raw" previews of the Overlay effects, but it seems that this is not quite correct. If you go by what the Content viewer shows you would not place the .mov file.
But if you place what does preview in the Content viewer, the .f4v file doesn't play on the iPad.
Based on what the desktop Content viewer displayed, I thought the only format that would work on the iPad would be the .f4v. But given the love between Apple and Adobe regarding Flash that didn't seem to be possible.
I've had someone else confirm these findings.
Any thoughts?

Sandee,
You're best sticking with .mp4 files, at least for now.

"Supported video and audio files you place in InDesign play when tapped in the Viewer. For video files, use a format that is compatible with Apple iTunes, such as an MP4 file with h.264 encoding. For audio files, use MP3 files."
http://indesignsecrets.com/picking-the-best-video-format-for-digital-publishing.php
"What is the best video format to use for most digital publishing output? Surprisingly, there is usually one answer—H.264 files. H.264 files are the most widely supported: Adobe InDesign CS 5 and 5.5 let you place them, and you can control their viewing with the Media panel. They are supported in Adobe Flash Player, and they are embedded into Acrobat 9 and X, and Reader 9 and X. Apple has supported the format on its very popular devices (iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch), and it’s equally viewable on Macintosh or Windows computers. When you view videos on YouTube, Vimeo, or other sources on the internet, you’re viewing H.264."

InDesign CS6 and Adobe Viewer - Unable to view Folio

So today I upgraded to CS6. But when I went to update one of my Folios I could not view it on my iPad Adobe Content Viewer app. I get the error message of…
"Please update your app: The issue is available for download, but requires a newer version of the app. Please update your app from the App Store."
Problem is when I goto the App Store, there is no update for the Content Viewer.
Is there an update waiting for Apple approval or did I do something wrong. I even tried a new test Folio but with the same error. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

The new viewer is still in review with Apple. See the status message at the top of the forum for updates.

IPad 2 and adobe flash on the net

Hello Folks,
Does anyone know if the iPad 2 will be supporting adobe flash on the net?

The Apple CEO (Steve Jobs) has stated that Apple does not allow Flash. Here is an excerpt from his speech in April of last year (the italics are, of course, mine):
"Besides the fact that Flash is closed and proprietary, has major technical drawbacks, and doesn’t support touch based devices, +there is an even more important reason we do not allow Flash on iPhones, iPods and iPads.+"
The entire speech is available at:
http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/
I would be happier if Apple did allow Flash on the iPad. Fortunately, I can go to my Mac when I need content supplied by Flash. If the Mac didn't support it, I'd have to go out and buy a Windoze machine to fill in the gap.

IPad apps and Adobe flash player

My daughter uses an app for homeschooling that needs adobe flash player to run all it's elements. But adobe says flash player cannot be put on the ipad. How can I get around this? Is there another option?

Do you mean app or a website ? Any app in the app store shouldn't need flash player as flash is not supported on the iPad, and probably never will be.
Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites etc have their own apps in the App Store.

Ipad shortcuts and Adobe Muse

I am currently building a site with Adobe Muse to be used internally. We are displaying the site on ipads and will be using the "add to homescreen" function to provide an easy link to the site.
Is there a function within Muse / some html that I can add so when a shortcut to the homescreen on the ipad is created, a custom icon will appear instead of the generic "screen captured" one that the ipad used as an icon?
I have seen this function on a number of websites.

Please repost in the Muse forum: http://support.muse.adobe.com/muse

IPad Air and Adobe Reader

Can I use editable forms with IOS 7.04?

There are some forms which are created by LiveCycle Designer which cannot be filled out in Reader. If it's a normal form created in Acrobat, you should be able to. (Or perhaps it is simply a static form which has to be printed out and filled in.)

Will a square format image fit into iPad screen and show full horizontal and vertical image?

Can a square format image be used to place in iPad screen and be viewed as either vertical or horizontal without experiencing unwanted cut off?

No it will not, unfortunately. I just tried it.

Does Adobe Viewer on iPad support Search, Bookmark and Highlight Text?

I would like to know if the Adobe Viewer for the iPad support the Search, Bookmark and Highlight Text features.... Or if some of these features are planned to be developed later and when.
Thanks for your quick answer.

Not yet. Those features are on the roadmap, but I can't offer an estimated time.

Conflict between Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader and how I fixed it

For the past 5 years, I have owned Adobe Acrobat version 9, and recently installed Adobe Reader as well (version 10.7). I was previously able to set up Firefox to use Acrobat to display PDF files in the browser without downloading them, but I recently noticed that this was no longer the case. Instead, every PDF file I tried to view was being downloaded instead. I came here to find a solution, and discovered that many other people are having similar problems. I followed the instructions given here (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/view-pdf-files-firefox-without-downloading-them), but found that they were actually UNhelpful. They tell you to turn off the Firefox PDF viewer by editing about:config to disable the file pdfs.js, which is the native Firefox PDF viewer-- but that will cause the PDF file type to disappear from the Tools/Options dialog, so you can't assign it to another program (whether Adobe or anything else). This makes it impossible to assign the Adobe plugin to open PDF files. I did figure out a solution on my own, and wanted to post it here to help other users with the same problem.
I ultimately learned, through trial and error and a lot of research both here and on Adobe's website, that the root cause of my problem was a conflict in Firefox between Acrobat and Reader. I was able to solve it by upgrading Acrobat, getting rid of Reader and enabling the Firefox PDF viewer so that I could assign the PDF file type to the Acrobat plugin within Firefox. Here are the details of my problem and how I solved it:
1. Acrobat and Reader conflict with each other in Firefox, but this isn't totally Firefox's fault. It's mostly Adobe's fault, and they pretty much admit it. Specifically, they say that Acrobat and Reader can't coexist on the same machine unless both are version 10 or higher. They tell you to upgrade to solve the problem--but I can't afford to pay for a new version of Acrobat. If you have to keep Acrobat 9.x, Adobe says the lowest version of Reader that will work with it is Reader 11. I couldn't upgrade to this because I have Vista, and Adobe hasn't issued Reader 11 for Vista (and doesn't plan to). I did cheat and download the Win 7 version of Reader 11, but it didn't help.
2. If you have both Acrobat and Reader, you can choose a setting in Reader to make it the default PDF handler--but Firefox ignores this information and defaults to Acrobat no matter what. (This is the part we can blame Firefox for.) If you have a version of Acrobat which is below 9.5.5, Firefox actually blocks it as a security risk, so the plugin won't work at all, regardless of version number. That's why PDFs are being downloaded through your standalone program instead of being displayed in the browser. If you want to view PDFs in Firefox and keep Acrobat on your computer, you MUST upgrade Acrobat to version 9.5.5 or above.
3. Unless you can upgrade Acrobat to at least 10.x, GET RID OF READER. As long as you can access Acrobat 9.5.5, it will work fine in Firefox and there's no need for Reader. I never used to have Reader myself, only Acrobat, but it must have been downloaded automatically when Acrobat was blocked by Firefox (which I didn't even realize).
4. IF YOU NEED TO UPGRADE ACROBAT 9.X TO 9.5.5, YOUR LAST CHANCE IS TODAY--6/26/13. Adobe has announced that today is the "end of life" for the Acrobat 9.x platform, and all support and upgrades will cease after today.
When I searched for updates by going to Adobe's website, it told me there were none available--but when I checked for them FROM THE ACROBAT PROGRAM ITSELF (Help/Check for updates), I was offered a 300 MB upgrade that took me all the way from version 9.0 to 9.5.5 in one step. (It did take a very long time to download and install.)
5. Once you have Acrobat 9.5.5, this is how to enable it in Firefox:
a. INSIDE ACROBAT, set your preference for "Internet" to "view PDF files in browser." Close Acrobat. Close Firefox if it's already open.
b. Reopen Firefox. Check Tools/Add-Ons/Plugins to make sure the Acrobat plugin is there. Enable it if disabled. Close Firefox.
If the plugin isn't there at all, repair your Acrobat installation through Control Panel. Then return to Firefox and enable it. Close Firefox.
c. Reopen Firefox again. Go to Tools/Options and check the list of file types. For the names that contain "Adobe" and "Acrobat," Acrobat should be set as the default program to open them. Select it from the drop-down list if it's not. Continue to scroll through the alphabetical list--you should see another entry called Portable Document Format. If it's there, the default will be "preview in Firefox." You should be able to change this to "Acrobat (in Firefox)" using the drop-down menu. Do NOT pick the option that says "Acrobat"--this is the standalone program and will cause your PDFs to be downloaded.
If you don't see "Acrobat (in Firefox)" as an option, this means your plugin is not working. Go back and fix it using the instructions above (including repair of Acrobat if necessary).
d. If you don't see a file type for "Portable Document Format" at all, that means the Firefox PDF viewer is disabled. You must enable it by editing the about:config file. To see it, type about:config in the Firefox address bar. You will get a warning message--just click OK and keep going.
This file is a long list of statements in alphabetical order. LOOK FOR A STATEMENT THAT SAYS "pdfjs.disabled" with a Boolean value of "true." Select this statement and right-click. A context menu will offer you choices including "Toggle." Select that one, which will change the Boolean value to "false." Exit about:config. Close Firefox.
e. Now return to Tools/Options, scroll through the list of file types, and you should see "Portable Document Format." Select "Acrobat (in Firefox)" as in the instructions above. Close Firefox.
f. The first time you try to open a PDF file in Firefox, you may get a dialog box which offers you choices of how to open the file. The first will be Acrobat, but DON'T CHOOSE THAT--it will cause your PDF to download. Instead, go to the choice that says "Open as application/pdf." You don't need to change the program that opens this file type, because your settings are already correct. Your PDF should open in the browser, with the full-featured Acrobat menu (including the option of editing or saving the file).
I hope other users can benefit from the truly painful experience I had figuring all of this out. Good luck.

Folio not showing on Ipad Adobe Viewer

Is the second time I have a folio not showing up on my ipad adobe viewer.
This has happened after i delete 4 or more articles from the folio, after deleting them it stops showing in my ipad viewer.
I researched here before and the solution was to check for the size, (that it was a size made for ipad) and yeah, i checked the size and the size is totally fine 768x1024
but still doesnt appear.
what I have to do is to create a new folio and click "copy to" each article to the new folio (from the old one), but the option copy to has to be done one by one, which is very annoying and time consuming. Once all articles are copied the new folio shows up but the old one doesnt.
Anyone knows why this happens? how can it be solved faster?

i had this problem once, in the folio producer have you given the folio a name, number and description?
also in the viewer on the ipad they are not nessecarily in the right order - so scoot about on it
if all else fails, delete the folio and re-upload, we had a glitch once and the only solution was to re upload

Adobe viewer crashing on ipad

My DPS presentation quit unexpectedly from the Adobe Viewer app on the ipad.
I notified that it's happen only in my article that contents a lot of multi-states objects and buttons in the same pages. In 3 pages, I made about 20 buttons creating 20 pop-up window (multi-states objects) and each state has 2 buttons inside. (one linking to a page in the same article an one other to close the pop-up window.) All the fonctions work but then crash after 4 or 5 times activated. Every pop-up window links to a different page in the article. My presentation has about 60 pages. (each contents a link to come back to one of the 3 pages and 2 others to a page in a different article of the folio -navto:// )
Does my article's page content too much links? Too much buttons?
Does Adobe Viewer application can support that much interactivity in a same article?
Are there a maximum pages for an article?
The format of my article is in PNG, is it better in PDF? Can it be the problem?
I'm looking for a solution, I have tried a lot of things but each time it's crashing again.
Thank you or your help!

Hi Neil,
Thank you very much for your answer. Finally I found the problem, and it wasn't about the number of links, overlays or buttons. Good news, the Adobe Viewer can support all of them! Maybe iPads are more performant than we expected!
The problem that caused the inexpectedly quitting was in my overlays. My presentation contents 3 pages as a repertoire of logos that links to a page of description of each of them. With my pop-up windows, I created a mask in transparency that covers all 3 pages by making a rectangle 3times the size of a regular page. Don't know if you understand.. ?! But the point is: it's not possible to create an overlay that interracts on multiple pages on the same time. The overlays had to be inside the workspace, 1024 X 768px in the iPad's case.
Also, I tried to import as PDF instead of PNG, but it created a blur when I arrived to the linking page on the article. PNG is probably better.
Thank you again for your help!!

HTML Article performance issues in Adobe Viewer on iPad

I have created a HTML Article using DPS but when I come to view it on Adobe Viewer in iPad the content does not scroll smoothly and the content is cut off and cropped (the whole page is not displayed), it is very judery and struggles to render the HTML below 'the fold' so to speak.
I have tried both options for importing HTML into DPS and both have the same performance/lag isuues.
I have a video in my HTML that seemed to be causing an issue where the video streaming was struggling to be pulled through, so I have treid YouTube and Vimeo video streaming and the performance/display issue is not resolved. I then tried embbeding an mp4 directly using HTML5 to see if it was a connection/bandwidth issue and the problem still exists. However the videos do play, its just the fact that the container is cropped in half.
Sometimes the whole HTML article renders but then when you swipe back up the page it struggles to render the content above? Also then when you swipe back down the page the content is also cropped that was visible before?
I have reviewed every available discussion on the Adobe Community and other resources but all the fixes mentioned do not have any effect.
If anybody can assist or has been experiencing the same issues any advise would be welcome.
Oh, the HTML Article contains some JS too, it does function correctly but I was wondering if JS causes problems? Just a thought.

Well, I think I may have found the answer so I thought I would share with the Community incase anyone else experiences the same type of issues.
After testing another peice of HTML that also included video streaming and heavy JavaScript, I narrowed the issue down to my JS. I had two Nivo Slider Carousels that were the route of the performance issues.
The other test HTML Article scrolls smoothly and the video pulls in as intended, although once in a while there is a slight delay in the page scrolling up and down but this is hardly noticeable.
I hope this may be of some help to other's in the future?
