Adobe Content Viewer Problem

Hi All,
I am having trouble testing a new folio on the desktop of one of my students' computers. I have double checked her files are all setup properly. I checked her articles and her folio too. Everything is set up the way it should be. We can test it on an iPad without any problems, but when we try to test it on her desktop via the Adobe Content Viewer the screen loads and then remains grey. No error codes. Just completely grey.
Any suggestions as to why this may occur?
Thanks,
Jessica

Did your student set her folio as PDF? You can't view PDF folios on the desktop content viewer. If you were to try and view it then you would get a grey screen.

    thanks

    Hello Bob and thank you for responding so quickly ... Would you be kind enough to send me the link where I can download older versions of Folio Builder and Folio Producers Panel tools for InDesign 5.5. I'm looking for them but I can not find them.
    Thank you for your patience.

    As discussed in numerous threads already, the new viewer has not been approved by Apple yet.
    If you’re a pro or enterprise customer you can create your own viewer app. If not, you’ll have to wait or roll back to the older tools.

  • ADOBE CONTENT VIEWER PROBLEMS

    What is going on with the content viewer? I am trying to work on a folio which is a work in progress. As I ad and make changes to the articles I update them and download the update on my iPad. The problem that I have over and over and over to the point of RIDICULOUS is that I get a ERROR downloading the update and then I am requried to download the entire 521mb folio AGAIN!!!!! Then ot gets to about 321mb and stops. All I get ie a"waiting" message.
    I pay entirely to much money for this softeware for it to continully have these problems. This is disrupting my work flow and causing me to miss deadlines.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled the content viewer and nothing seems to work. This same problem is happening on my addroid tablet as well.
    Any thoughts?
    Rob

    Rob,
    From May until September, before they upgraded the servers and timeout settings, I was having very similar problems and frustration.  I had to babysit downloads on salespeople's Xooms using hotel wireless until the wee hours of a couple of mornings in addition to many frustrating days/weeks in my office.  The unreliability/inconsistency was the most frustrating part.  Thankfully I rarely have download and installation issues these days and get very few complaints from users in the field.  Server problems seem to happen infrequently and don't last for more than a few hours when they do occur.
    Make sure you're as close to a strong and solid signal as possible.  Adjust the screen timeout setting on the Android tablet.  When they go to sleep it seems to increase the potential for errors.  What happened to me a lot was that a 500MB+ folio would slowly download in spurts and then hang during installation.  I'd have to quit and restart the content viewer app to complete installation and then when it finally finished I would find that one or two articles would have gray elements or would be gray entirely.  It seemed like the delays during download would sometimes lead to an incomplete article.  Also, make sure you try downloading from different connections and/or rooms to eliminate your connection as a potential cause.
    With some of our larger articles it takes as long to upload the article and then download/verify on multiple devices as it does to create them.  I add as much padding to schedules as I can just in case Adobe has a bad server day (or week).
    Big articles and folios come with more time and trouble, make sure you optimize your videos and overlay elements to keep file size as low as you can.  Also, with the iPad viewer you should have progressive downloading so you can view articles as the folio is being downloaded.  This may help you identify the problem article(s).

  • Problem in Adobe Content Viewer

    I have a Enterprise account and a custom Adobe Content Viewer, that's supposed to read a book with interactive objects made in HTML5. However, this reader isn't reading some script that is making the interactive objects impossible to open, and, when it opens, opens with bugs. Considering that the interactive objects opens in all browsers with no problems, I would like to know if there's anyway we can make the interactive objects open directly in the browsers, from the Adobe Content Viewer.
    This problem just happens when I open it in PC from a external media.
    Please, I need to solve this as soon as I can.

    Have you tried logging into http://digitalpublishing.acrobat.com/ with the same account and accepting the terms and conditions there?

  • 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

  • Adobe Content Viewer not installed on V28

    Today I updated both my CC and CS6 versions of InDesign, so I now have V28 of DPS tools, however there is no Content Viewer app available for my Mac (Running )SX 10.8.5).
    When I try to preview on Desktop via the Folio Builder panel, an error stating that the Adobe Content Viewer couldn't be found comes up.
    All the Adobe Support documents go through the process of finding the AdobeContentViewer.air file in the /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Installers/AdobeDigitalPublishingCS6/ContentViewer folder, but I only have three files in that folder:
    Adobe AIR Installer.app
    Install Adobe Content Viewer.app
    Install DPS App Builder.app
    So I can't double-click it to reinstall it.
    My Air is up to date, my Updates are all up to date, and I can't find how to unistall InDesign (I am a Creative Cloud subsriber).
    I used my Time Machine backup to go and get it from a back up, but it wouldn't install when I double-clicked the old version (I was getting desperate!)
    However I can preview the same Folio on my connected iPad running the latest version of the Adobe Content Viewer app
    After a live chat, then over two hours on hold for some UK technical support on my land line, and just over an hour on my mobile, plus a Skype call to the US 800 number to be informed of over an hour's wait there, and to discover UK support is only during office hours, and after nearly two hours it has passed 5.30pm, I had to give up on Adobe's official technical support, and resort to more searching on Adobe forums, but have found nothing for CC or CS6 that I haven't already tried, except unistalling and reinstalling InDesign. But I can't find how do that via Creative Cloud. At one point I had to tell one of the nice indian "technical support" staff not to put me back in the same loop as I'd been in twice before as I was close to tears. He sympathised but told me it wasn't his area of expertise - surprise surprise... Not a good day.
    Pleeeese, is anyone else having this problem, or has anyone else solved this problem?
    Thanks in anticipation

    Thanks Neil, that worked once I'd installed it directly into the Applications folder, not within a subfolder.
    So if anyone else has this issue, install the Desktop Viewer app for CC and it works for both CS6 and CC.
    NOTE, that you need to double-click the Install Adobe Content Viewer.app file, don't look for a file called Install Adobe Content Viewer.air as per the instructions, as they are out of date.
    Phew, I have finally got all my DPS functionality back, and have created a V27 app using V28.

  • Defaulting fonts when viewing DPS articles in Adobe Content Viewer

    Hi.
    My fonts are defaulting throughout my folio when I view articles in Adobe content viewer.
    This folio is a PDF. I have published before and not had this issue.
    Is the problem with Content Viewer?
    Will the type display correctly when I publish this folio and view in app?
    Thank you.

    When a font is missing or unlinked that font shows up as a default font.
    The fonts in these documents are not missing or unlinked.
    When I update the article it fixes the problem, but only temporarily.
    The fonts default the next time I view the article.

  • Adobe Content Viewer Application not Loading in China

    I am having a problem viewing an application I uploaded to an Adobe Content Viewer account. I can see the application just fine in my dashboard after I log in, but when my contact in China logs in using the same username and password, the application does not appear in her dashboard. Do you know how to resolve this? Is there a firewall that is preventing users in China from seeing the application I uploaded?
    Thanks,
    Kate

    Yes, if Adobe's folios could be downloaded in China, it means Chinese Internet sencorship is gone. Imagine how many magazines are there for Chinese people to download that the government won't be happy to see if Adobe's folios is available to download. Sad for Chinese...

    This is a known issue with the v25 Adobe Content Viewer. It is fixed with the v26 version, which is currently awaiting approval from Apple. If you have a Pro or Enterprise subscription to DPS, you can build a custom Adobe Content Viewer.

  • Need to download folios repeatedly in Adobe Content Viewer

    Hi:
    We are using Adobe Content Viewer (ACV) for a digital education project. The ACV app is used in iPad´s and when are turned off, we need to download again all the folios previously downloaded to the ACV app.
    Someone who has the same problem, how to fix it?.
    Thanks,
    Oscar

    I am using iPad 2 with iOS 7.0.4. and latest ACV, more than 10 gb free.
    1. Basically, I download a folio on my iPad device, I can open it and everything is just fine. When I click "remove issues from library" I see  both folios, one occupies 28 mb, the other one 48 mb. One is made for viewer version 20 the other for 26.
    2. Then, I shut down the device completely and turn it back on after few seconds.
    3. I launch ACV, both of those folios appear just fine, until I click on them.
    4. Just as I click on a folio, the background appears just light gray, without any content. If I tap on the screen, I don't even get top menu, where I can return to library. So I have to force quit ACV.
    5. When I launch ACV again, both folios have the cloud icon next to them, and I need to download them in order to view them, HOWEVER, when I click "remove issues from library" button, I see that both folios are still there with the same mb size.
    So, it looks like they are still on the device, but for some reasons I need to re-download them again.
    Unfortunately I don't have any other iPads to test these folios.
    Just to remind, this happens only to 2 out of many folios, both were made in summer last year, they are not published and are only used on the current device as presentations.
    Regarding updates, to be honest, I don't remember if I had this prior to last iOS update, but I might not have noticed that.
    Usually, if I see there is an update, I just update it.
    Is there anything you would recommend to try?
    I have not yet tried to remove ACV from the device and re-install. Or unshare that folio and share it again.

  • Cannot download folio in adobe content viewer - urgent help please

    Hello,
    my folio won't download in my Adobe content viewer ("cannot connect to server") and I would have needed it for a presentation at the client - the client also wanted to download the folio on his device but the same error came up. I tried it then with another iPad, same problem on 3 different iPads. I uninstalled the ACV app, installed it again, removed old issues of the magazine from the iPad and tried all that. But everything failed. In the past it always worked fine. This time, the only difference is that I have 2 Youtube videos as "web content" in the folio, but I can't imagine that could be the problem. There were no problems when having the iPad connected to my laptop, everything worked fine. But without cable connection and trying to download it into the Adobe content viewer, the download does not work. Can somebody help me please? And will that have a negative affect on the submission towards the Apple App Store?

    Hello Neil,
    I tried 2 different wireless networks with 3 different iPads and I had the problem with all networks and iPads unfortunately. When I did other app magazine issues for that client in the past, everything always worked fine with the 2 different networks and there were no settings changed. This is why I am so confused about this.
    Meanwhile, I have managed to give my client access by private-publishing the folio via the Folio Panel with my personal Adobe ID and I gave my client my personal Adobe ID for that. Not the ideal solution but at the moment that works.
