Adobe Content Viewer (desktop preview) Missing with latest update (v.8.0.9.23)

InDesign CS6 just promted me to update my Folio software and now my Adobe Content Viwer is missing.
When I try to preview a Folio, I get the following error message:
Has anyone had this problem?

I deleted the the file recommended by Matt:
Try closing the app, deleting the following directory to clear the app's saved data, and then restarting:
Mac: /Users/{username}/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.dmp.contentviewer
But the Problem seems rooted in the fact that the APP itself has disappeared from my Applications. I know it use to be there before. Can I download the APP again from Adobe?

Adobe Content Viewer (desktop preview) issues

The Adobe Content Viewer (desktop preview) runs off the bottom of my screen (27") when viewing content from InDesign for the new iPad. Would like to be able to alter window size and be able to scroll down to view artwork at full size. Am I missing something simple?
I've downloaded the latest updates for the folio producer tools as well as the folio panel update.

The Adobe Content Viewer for the desktop currently doesn't preview new iPad (2048x1536) folios properly. This desktop preview issue should be fixed in the next release.

Adobe Content Viewer desktop preview doesn't show the animations

Hello everybody,
I built a Folio and wanted to preview it on the desktop. The audio I inbuilt functions but no animation does. In the InDesing animation preview it does work though. Where's the mistake?
Thanks for your answers.
Diwans

InDesign animations are not supported. The preview panel in CS5 and CS5.5 has finally been appropriately named in CS6 to the SWF Preview panel.

Why is adobe requiring installation of McAfee software with latest updates?

I have received my normal notices of update for Adobe acrobat. However, during installation it tells me that it is also installing McAfee antivirus software. I do not want any McAfee program on my computer, ever! There is no indication until installation is underway that you are requiring this install, no way to deselect it, and frankly, McAfee is a pain to remove from any computer, and does not play well with industry specific software I am required to use. WHAT THE *#))!_ IS Adobe playing at here?

If you have Acrobat, rather than the free Adobe Reader, there is no offer of Macafee, so far as I know; you've been scammed.
If you have the free Reader you can turn it off with an option like this:
but if you didn't get that I strongly suspect a scam. There are a lot of fake Reader updates out there and I'd be more worried about the things it didn't mention...

After I dismiss the message, the content viewer opens up, but shows only a grey screen.
I'm using Mac OS X 10.8, InDesign CC 9.1 and Adobe Content Viewer 3.3.0. I've tried reinstalling the Content Viewer and AIR, but to no avail. It works fine when I preview on my iPad, the problem is only with the desktop.
Would appreciate if anyone has inputs on how to solve this.
Thanks!

Hi Lohrii,
thanks for your help!
So I tried the following:
Download newest tools and install it
Create a new blank Folio (v30) with a simple page
Same error while starting preview from InDesign
I will now remove InDesign CC, test it and if this doesn't help I will reinstall CS6.
EDIT
Ok a complete reinstall of CS6 didn't help! I don't know what to do now. Any idea?

Private app distribution: dev version / testflight / adobe content viewer / b2b distribution

Hi Adobe Community!
I am finalizing an app for my company that is supposed to be distributed only among our distributors. Apple rejected my Enterprise inquiry since our distributors are not our employees. I wanted to sum up my distribution options now and ask you for feedback. I do not plan to use App Store.
1. B2B distribution through apple
I can distribute custom b2b app through Apple, but it is available only in few european countries and this does not cover our needs since we cannot supply to all distributors. Also the process looks very complicated and I'd like to not use it.
2. Adobe Content Viewer distribution
If I tell my customers to download Adobe Content Viewer and sign in with my Adobe ID, the newest version of folios will be automatically downloaded to their devices?
Also on Adobe website it is stated that my folios should be automatically uploaded to Adobe servers - but they are not. From what I read on the forums I understood that it is only available to Creative Cloud subscribers, is it right? If I subscribe will I be able to use this way for as many users I want?
3. Developer version
Finally I know that I can distribute dev version. I will have to register devices UDIDs but they will expire (after what time?) and how many UDIDs can I register (I read in different places that I can have 50 or 100 testers).
4. TestFlight
What I undestood so far is that facilitates developeloper version distribution, but wouldn't I be able to use this tool to go around UDIDs expiration?
Thank a lot!

With DPS enterprise and Apple enterprise account, you can built and deploy enterprised signed app internally within your organisation. Create the app, deploy and host it internally, so anyone who has access to the link can download the app. Not sure if Apple terms allows your distributors from outside your organisation to access and download the app hosted internally within your organisation, check that with Apple.
If Apple terms does not allow, then you can use DPS restricted distribution method to deploy the app on the Appstore, but allow someone access to the content only if they are authenticated via the app, called direct entitlement or restricted distribution. Go here for details: Using restricted distribution with Digital Publishing Suite
Signing in to ACV does not automatically download the latest folio. Your folios are always uploaded on Adobe servers, you cannot host it somewhre else. Anyone can create, upload folios and see the folio in the Adobe Content Viewer. But publishing the folio to be available in an app requires DPS subscription.
You can register upto 100 UDID's on Apple dev portal. I don't think the UDID's expires so long as your Apple Dev account is active but the certificates expires exactly one year from the day it was generated.

Adobe Content Viewer Upgrade

Hi. Anybody knows, when the Apple version of ACV will be available. Since the last upgrade 1.9.1 can't preview my material???

Only the employee at Apple responsible for approving it knows. There are many posts discussing how to revert to older tools until the updated Adobe content Viewer app is approved. You can also create your own Adobe Content Viewer for previewing locally.

Adobe Content Viewer missing

Hi When i try to preview my folio with the preview option located in the folio builder pane in Indesign Cs 5.5 it says it cant find the adobe content viewer. Can anyone help

Hi Gatch,
I am having the exact same issue as you are in InDesign CS5.5. My Adobe Content Viewer application is also missing and is not in Applications>Adobe. I am also getting the same error message as you are when trying to use Folio Preview. So I don't repost everything here, pls. view my current thread here. I reinstalled the Folio Producer tools to no avail, and then tried to install the Adobe Content Viewer
by drilling down in the Folio Producer installer (AdobeDigitalPublishing-mul > payloads > AdobeContentViewer-mul > AdobeContentViewer.air) but was not able to because I am now getting THIS following message:
"This application cannot be installed because this installer has been mis-configured. Please contact the application author for assistance."
I am on a Mac with OS 10.7.

Folios Missing in Adobe Content Viewer on iPad

I'm signed into my adobe account in indesign on my desktop, as well as in adobe content viewer on my iPad. All of the folios I've designed are saved, updated, and uploaded onto my cloud (they are also all visible in my folio panel). However, none of these saved presentations are visible in adobe content viewer even thought I'm signed in. I need to be able to get these presentations onto the iPad as soon as possible.

Same thing with us. I have 35 iPads that I need the content viewable on ACV.
24 are iPad 2, iOS7, latests ACV - I can download, view once, then next time it dissapears
11 are New iPad (4th gen) , iOS7, latest ACV, I can download once, then next time it dissapears
1 iPad Air, iOS7, latest ACV, can download and the folios are persistent. They always appear.
We need a fix for this ASAP. We have presentation using these in 7 days.
More information......
iPad air is on iOS7.0.3 - no problem (not sure if it is software or hardware releated)
iPad 2's are on iOS 7.0.04
10 of 11 of the new iPads (4th gen) are on iOS7.0.4 and folios delete
1 of the new iPads (4th Gen) is on iOS 6.1 and the folios self delete here too.

Can't test PDF folio on desktop Adobe Content Viewer

Hi all,
I get an error when I'm trying to test my PDF formatted folio on my desktop Adobe Content Viewer.
I get the error in Dutch (my language) but roughly it translates: "This folio contains one or more stacks that are not yet supported for the Content Viewer for Desktop. PDF stacks are only supported in iOS-viewers."
This happens when I click "preview" in the folio builder. I work on a Macbook with Mac OS X Lion.
Help would be appreciated since I can't find anything about this issue with PDF formatted folio's on the internet!
Thanks.

@Haeme – does not work for me. Sometimes yes, sometimes the Desktop Content Viewer is showing is a gray field.
Will test further, if there are any constraints concerning the rendering process of different objects.
Tested again. I had some MSOs on the second page that prevented rendering. They contain nothing but empty rectangles.
After removing ONE of the MSOs the rendering was fine. Did not matter if I removed the one or the other MSO.

Adding Adobe Content Viewer to Desktop for users without InDesign 5, 5.5, 6

We are starting to sell digital advertising and it would be nice if Adobe Content Viewer could be downloaded to the desktop for these advertisers who do not have tablet devices nor have InDesign 5, 5.5 and 6 on their machine. They are wanting to proof their ads in an interactive format on their desktop.

I also would like to see a Content Viewer for people without InDesign.
Better yet would be the ability to embed a viewer into a Folio, like a flash with a projector.
