Updates to Folio Panel, Producer Tools and Content Viewer on iPad breaking scroll panels

This has not been a good morning.
Came into the office this morning, logged in and saw that there were updates for the Content Viewer, Producer Tools and the Folio Panel. Updated them all. Started to work some more on a promo piece for a new magazine and began to notice Scroll Panels using the "Pan Only" form within the Content Overlay panel no longer work. This was a great way to create scroll panels that could contain hyperlinks. Problem is, I am not sure where the problem lies. Is the problem with the Viewer or with the updates to the Folio Tools or Folio Panel? I am unfortunately on deadline for this afternoon and I don't have the luxury to troubleshoot this. Granted, I probably shouldn't have updated all of these tools at this juncture, but I was hoping that these updates would fix the problem I was having with the Desktop Viewer that wasn't working. Sadly, the Desktop Viewer works now, but that came with the price of losing functionality elsewhere.
Frustrated.

Yeah, it's been a project that I was working on for the last two weeks. We were supposed to have a final walk-through this afternoon and present it tomorrow. But now a good portion of the features that were working and had been promised no longer work. All out of no fault of my own. I understand that these things can happen, but this one is pretty bad and the timing was worse. Like I said, I shouldn't have updated the tools and the Viewer app until after the presentation... but then again, that may have been even worse. At least I was able to get the presentation postponed until Monday... gives me a little more time to figure out what to do.
Anyways, I did able to get a hold of someone through support and was able to send them some files. It's being looked at as I type this. I do have to give credit to the Adobe support staff, they've been helpful and pretty responsive! Thanks guys!

  • Folio not appearing in Adobe Content Viewer on ipad

    folio i created in indesign cs5.5 not appearing in Adobe Content Viewer on ipad.
    I have CS5.5, Apple ipad 1st gen ios 5.0.1 Adobe content viewer 1.9.1
    the folio appears on the acrobat.com site in the FOLIO PRODUCER
    but nothing is appearing on my ipad in the Adobe Content Viewer.
    I work for a large magazine publisher and would like to demo the folio on the ipad to sell the concept of the DPS.
    However if i cant get this on my device, its going to be a no go.
    Help please.
    Thanks,
    James.

    Thanks Ants,
    Your doubts motivated me to do some testing on the subject;-)
    I made several files of different dimensions, and uploaded them to the cloud. All of them rendered correctly on the desktop. But only those which used exact 4:3 width:height ratio  appeared in the Content Viewer on the iPad. And only those, which were at least 1024x768px. A perfect 4:3 document sized 768x576 did not show. But the 1536x1152 one appeared correctly.
    I am still certain, that the reason of absence od James' file in his iPad was caused by the dimensions of the folio. I would however modify my statement:
    Only the folios sized exactly 1024x768 px (Landscape, portrait or both orientations) are valid for iPad
    It should be: Only the folios sized 1024x768 px or more, with exact 4:3 ratio (Landscape, portrait or both orientations) are valid for iPad.

  • Need links to previous versions of Folio Producer Tools and Folio Builder

    Got stonewalled trying to view a folio that had been updated using Release 18 tools on the iPad Content Viewer (2.2). So, I need to reinstall previous versions of Folio Producer Tools/Folio Builder.
    I'm aware that the issue is Apple has not yet approved the latest Content Viewer (2.3). In the meantime, I need to keep plowing ahead on a previously built folio, which means using older versions of the tools.
    Can anyone help with links to previous versions of the Tools and Builder?
    Sorry any redundancy. Posted the message below on a post earlier this morning:
    Any ETA on Apple's approval of the new Content Viewer for iPad? Hoping very soon.
    Currently working on a folio that was started with pre-Release 18 tools. We updated tools on one computer to Release 18 this morning, made a few tweaks to a single article, then updated it to the folio.
    As you predicted, Bob, we can NO LONGER VIEW the folio on our iPad Content Viewer (2.2). And our Enterprise license is still in the works so we can't build a Custom Viewer.
    Anyone have a link to pre-Release 18 downloads to reinstall the old Builder panel and Producer Tools on this computer? Or any other ways to circumvent this problem?

    Thanks, John. Still not out of the woods yet.
    Uninstalled Release 18 Folio Producer Tools and Folio Builder Panel. Downloaded and installed the AdobeDigitalPublishing Patch-All.dmg from here: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5226
    Now, when I open InDesign, I get this prompt ...
    And I can no longer access Folio Builder (Window > Extensions > Folio Builder). However, the download site for the patch says that the patch includes the Folio Builder panel:
    Any solutions?

  • Viewing Folios with DPS Folio Producer and Adobe Content Viewer on IPad?

    What is the path to viewing a folio, on an IPad, that has been published with the DPS Folio Producer. 
    Opening Adobe Content Viewer on IPad has no obvious path to the folio in the Producer.
    There is no obvious path to the library in Adobe Content Viewer, either?
    Logged in both with Adobe I.D.
    Using ID CS6 on Windows.
    Also as a Creative Cloud single member what is the process of being able to publish unlimited apps to the IPad.
    Thank you in advance for your response.
    James Goins

    Unfortunately, if you're on Windows you have no process to publish an
    app. You need a Mac.
    I wish Adobe would allow Creative Cloud members to use the same process
    that Pro and Enterprise subscribers have by exporting a zip file. You
    still need a Mac but you can pretty much use any Mac you have access to.
    With Creative Cloud to publish a Single Edition app, you must have
    InDesign installed on a Mac and you generate the app by choosing create
    app from the folio builder panel menu.
    All that said, if you create a folio while signed into the folio builder
    panel, that folio should show up in Adobe Content Viewer as long as
    you're properly signed into it.

  • Clear process to unisntall Folio Producer Tools and go back to previous version

    Does anybody know where we can find a clear process/tutorial to uninstall the last version (v19) of the Folio Producer tools AND go back to the previous version please ?
    Because this is not clear enough to me
    "To uninstall the Folio Producer tools, do either of the following:
    In Windows, use the Control Panel (Add/Remove Programs) to uninstall the Adobe Folio Producer tools. (For older versions of the Folio Producer tools, you must uninstall InDesign CS5.5 to uninstall the tools.) "
    What does "For older versions of the Folio Producer tools, you must uninstall InDesign CS5.5 to uninstall the tools" mean ???
    Does it mean
    1: "if you got old version of FPT and want it remove, do so" or does it mean
    2: "if you want to go back to a previous version, do so" ?
    Thanks for not bashing, i just get lost ....

    Neil is right that Add/Remove Programs works to uninstall the most recent versions of the Folio Producer tools. If you have a much older version (such as v12 or v13), you need to uninstall InDesign CS5.5 to remove the Folio Producer tools.

  • Adobe Content Viewer in iPad dont update the contents on mi Folio Builder! Help!

    Please, someone have de same problem?!
    When i update my folio through the Folio Builder in Indesign 5.5, the Content Viewer in iPad dont update de folio.
    In Acrobat.com i see the contents update, but in iPad/Adobe Content Viewer not.
    Why this problem happens?
    Tanks.

    As I wrote on another thread (and this was directed at Adobe employees)
    "I have been closely monitoring many threads here at DPS (and DPS Private Beta Forums) in the last few weeks, and yes I am new to this particular product group having only been in it since March.  But I wonder if there is some way that Adobe can be made aware of how serious this issue is with Builder and Viewer and tools "not lining up" with Apple.
    "To keep putting this problem on Apple is somewhat of a shopworn technique (and I say this with all due respect.). Still, Apple commands fully 80+ % of the tablet market.  They are the big dog.
    "Suggestions for the future:  Perhaps there will be a way to choose a tools/viewers workflow at startup -- or to put a bigger "red flag" before installing any update that is not yet supported by Apple.  Approaching this from the engineering side, you may have forgotten just how many disclaimer screens the average designer/production person faces every week!  Many of us don't read them carefully. (Richard Dreyfuss reads them).
    "I have nothing but admiration for what Adobe software engineers are trying to do -- and these are nascent times to be sure.  But it certainly seems like this launch is going poorly.

  • Library empty: live App and content viewer

    Hi,
    I'm facing a serious problem as our folios of elektrospieler aren"t shown in the App (which is live on the store) nor the content viewer any more.
    Library is updating within the branded App "Cannot actualize Library - An error occured" (Bibiliothek kann nicht aktualisiert werden - Es ist ein Fehler aufgetreten).
    http://itunes.apple.com/de/app/elektrospieler-games-magazin/id438669889?mt=8
    I just updated the App with a binary that I build 1 month ago, but the error was there prior the update.
    What can I do? I have no idea why the folios don't even show in content viewer?!
    Thanks very much in advance,
    Richard

    Richard,
    maybe, when the issues don't appear in the content viewer anymore this
    might have to do with v21, wich requires you to set up the orientations you
    want first and then fails to appear on the iPad if you have not added all
    orientations.
    if your folio is only one orientation and you switched to v21, the folio
    settings need to reflect that.
    maybe you can try with a new folio, look at the settings in the new folio
    window.
    this is my initial shot in the dark.
    but if you can provide the product Id to James Roche, he might be able to
    investigate further.

  • Adobe Content Viewer for iPad rejected?

    Has the new version of the Adobe Content Viewer for iPad been rejected for the Apple App store? We've been told the updated App version would be alive in the Apple App store by last week, the latest. What's really going on?
    Customers have paid good money to Adobe to enjoy this products. Does Adobe has a Plan B in case the updated version doesn't pass the Apple filter? Maybe an update of the Folio Builder that supports the current 1.7 App untill Apple finally decides to release the new version?
    Unfortunatelly, we need that App working to test and share those publications with our clients. The answer "this matter is in Apple hands" is not acceptable.
    Adobe is a serious company.
    We deserve a serious answer.

    Apple hasn't rejected the viewer. They're just taking a longer time than usual for whatever reason.
    The current version of the iPad viewer works with the 1.0.x version of the tools. If you need to view folios on the iPad, you can uninstall the 1.1.x tools and install the 1.0.x tools (or use the v11 tools from prerelease). Or, if you're a paying customer, you can use the Viewer Builder to create a custom viewer that lets you preview content on the iPad.

  • Need help: unable to login Adobe Content Viewer on iPad

    Need help: not able to login with my Adobe Id and password on adobe content viewer on iPad.  I'm able to login on the adobe.com site with my Id and password, but not on my iPad in the adobe content viewer.  I've reset my Adobe ID password a couple of times to make sure I'm using the correct password and ID and I've even tried it with a complete new Adobe ID account, but it has not helped. Anybody who knows how to solve this?

    Your Adobe ID needs to be verified to work with DPS. Can you use that Adobe ID to sign in to the Folio Builder panel? If not, sign in to http://digitalpublishing.acrobat.com and follow the prompts to verify the Adobe ID.
    If your Adobe ID is verified, try removing the Adobe Content Viewer app from both the iPad and iTunes, sync, and install it again.

  • Content Viewer on iPad issue

    Anyone else seeing something like this— I have a folio shared with me. I open Content Viewer on iPad (which is up to date and restarted). I sign in and attempt to download the shared folio. It throws an error and then I am signed out and all of the shared folios dissappear from the Content Viewer (because they are still in the cloud). I can't find a way around it—so I hook up the iPad to my machine and preview shared folios through InDesign.

    That sounds like the v25 double sign-in bug. In some situations, you need to sign in twice to see your folios.

  • Limitations/issues v.2 Adobe Content Viewer on Ipad 1 (not tested on 2)

    Update on 23-Feb-2012
    There a a few problems/limitations I'm running into with the Adobe Content Viewer for Ipad 1 (not tested on 2), like:
    Autoplaying more than 1 multiple-state is impossible. Only the object in the highest place in the layers is visible (like having pulsing navigation arrows and a fade in text) -works perfectly in de windows Adobe Content Viewer with Indesign 5.5
    Autoplay of an multistate object with 'stop at last frame' does not work. It just fades the entire multistate object out, instead of holding. -works perfectly in de windows Adobe Content Viewer with Indesign 5.5.
    Cropping Images (changing the objectbox) in indesign, becomes skewed (or squashed) like the image just gets pushed in the new objectbox size.
    Buttons with a click image/appearence become invisible in a multistate object. -works perfectly in de windows Adobe Content Viewer with Indesign 5.5.
    The viewer on the ipad will crash on a navto://NameOfPage#PageNumberOtherThenTheFirst, if that page where it directs to has a slideshow. this happens 90% of the time.
    Some ideas for change
    Not allowing an Overlay (which is larger than the page itself) on a page depth of 1, on top of a page with depth 0. Seeing content of the page below the currentpage seems quite unuseful.
    Allow multistate objects to autoplay within another multistate object (thus allowing like a: menu catagorie wich can call an autoplaying slideshow)
    Zooming in on an image without first having to tap on it to enable zooming.
    Updating content button.
    Hitting the update button in Indesign cs5.5 (windows) doesn't update all changed content.
    Hitting download update in de Adobe Content Viewer (Ipad 1) doesn't change all changed content. Archive and redownload nessesary.
    We would love to see the top issues working.
    Kind regards,

  • Problem with Adobe Content Viewer for ipad

    Hello,
    I created an application from folio bulider 1.350 gigabytes.
    Once downloaded using Adobe  Content Viewer on Ipad i can display it without any problems, but when I turn off the Ipad or delete Adobe Content Viewer by applications running in the background, and I open again Adobe Content Viewer that I get stuck and does not open.
    Adobe Content Viewer I see in the background but does not stay open and do not show my application.
    Should I delete the Adobe Content Viewer from iPad, download it again from the App Store and re-download my application.
    It could be a problem of size? 1.350 gigabytes is too much?
    It could be a problem version of indesign? I use version 5.0
    Thanks and looking answers ...
    Greetings to all

  • Content Viewer: only iPad shows html5 content

    Hello! I embedded an html5 audio player into InDesign Cs6. It works great on the Content Viewer on iPad, but not on the Desktop Content viewer. Is it always like that?

    Thank you so much, Neil!
    I'm trying to build an app with scores and music in InDesign Cs6. I want to publish my app for iPad and Samsung Galaxy,
    so for IOS and Android. Because I want the control buttons to look the same in both mobile operating systems, I tried to build the controls on my own in native html5 audio, but I suppose, I'm not capable of doing that.
    I am trying to find controls (native html5 audio) for stopAudio (=reset without playing), a loop button (means: not only looping true/false) and the possibility to change the value of the progress bar. Is that possible at all in native html5?
    Best regards, Peter
    (please excuse if my english is misleading!)

    <head>

  • Folio Producer tools and problems after updating to 1.1.2

    Folio Producer tools for digital publishing suite has been updated to 1.1.2. Donot log in with a message. "An error has occurred while communicating with the server. Could not test Folio Builder and server compatibility. Please check your network connection and try logging into the panel again." Message that pops up.Work environment is Windows 7, Adobe InDesign 5.
    1.1.1 version did not have any problems after the update, the problem occurred.
    I wonder what has to be resolved.
    During the following posts in the same case shows the problem has beenresolved with the people saw a wonder.

    I have the same problem (as explained at length in this thread), with the Folio Builder 1.1.2 update using InDesign CS5 under Windows XP. I can even sign in to CS Live services within InDesign, but opening the Folio Builder panel then produces the same error that you're getting.
    The only workaround is to uninstall DPS and then re-install it step by step, stopping after the second patch. Do not install the latest Folio Builder because it does not work under Windows, as far as I can see.
