Adobe Content Viewer

Hello folkes
I have not been on this forum for awhile so I might have missed some details regarding Apple approving the Content Viewer.
I know word on the street is that 'Apple will approve it when Apple decides to approve it' but maybe somebody has some more info??!
Anybody know if it will be by the end of April?? I have told a client we can maybe do some states within states by then?!!!!
Cheers
Gemma

  • 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 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.

  • Adobe Content Viewer Slow after Upgrade to ios 8

    Hi
    I am still in the development phase of my app. I have built it using InDesign.
    I have been updating and previewing the app in Adobe Content Viewer on my iPad 3. It was working fine. I upgraded my iPad to ios 8.1  three days back and since then there the app is very slow when i view it in ACV. The page transition is slow, the slideshow gallery grid does not respond even after multiple taps.
    Now my ipad is 3rd generation and I am realising i should not have upgraded it to ios 8. But it is very hard for me to tell now if the slowdown is because of -
    - ios 8 only
    - or because of incompatibility of ios 8 with older ipads (3rd generation)
    I tried downgrading my ios to 7.2 but apple does not alllow that anymore, so I am stuck with ios 8.
    Any inputs/feedback on this will be great.
    thanks in advance.
    -MP

    Thanks Peter, Bob , for your inputs.
    Bob - did you upgrade the ios to 8 on our ipad 3?
    Mine was working fine with all the preview apps on ACV till i upgraded to ios 8.
    Peter - Apple usually do not discount its products even on Black Friday. But I will see if I can squeeze in a new piece to continue with my project. I am also going to try downgrading ios on my ipad with some manual fix, I could not do it via itunes as apple is no more signing ios 7.
    Thanks for the inputs.

  • Adobe content viewer grey screen after login on windows 8.1

    we're on Windows 8.1, content viewer is not running, after login it shows a  grey screen with just "Adobe content Viewer" on the upper left, but  nothing working....

    I'm sorry Neil, I'm working on a folio on Indesign, if I share the folio from Folio Builder (Indesign) to my account, and then I open adobe content viewer on my iPad, I can see the cover of the folio shared and I can download it.
    Instead, with the same account on adobe content viewer (windows 8.1), I see nothing and I can not do any action.

  • 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.

  • DPS Animation & Full Screen Video functionality failure when viewing mag in Adobe Content Viewer

    HI There,
    Specifically the following issues are occuring when we view the mag through the Adobe Content Viewer on our Ipad.
    All Title animations are not functioning at all (although in the SWF viewer they are working fine)
    Although we select the media to be played full screen when we are setting up the videos in the media panel they won't play full screen, but play perfectly well in the place we put them. - full screen doesnt function in the SWF viewer either.
    The control bars to control playing, stopping, full screen etc also don't appear on our videos we selected.  - doesn't function in the SWF viewer like it should with the control bars working
    In terms of how we set everything up just to confirm we are doing it right.
    For animations.
    1. Select copy to animate
    2. Click on Animations panel, chose the preset fade in, selected the time 1.25seconds, animate from current appearance, fade in.
    For videos
    Our videos are H264 Quicktime videos all 16x9 in ratio
    1. Went to media panel.
    2. Searched for file to insert
    3. Inserted it and sized down the actual physical size of the video to fit in the space we wanted (NB we didn't create a rectangle to put them in or anything)
    4. Chose the poster from file
    5. Selected skin over play full screen & show controller over rollover
    Any help to sort this out would be appreciated.  Thanks so much in advance

    Hi BellaMove:
    For the animations:
    You have to create a document with the size of the animation you want to create and give attributes using the animation panel of indesign.
    Then you export to fla and using Adobe Wallaby pass it to HTML5.
    Then place them by the panel Overlay Creator (Web Content). Using the Content Viewer can not see it on your desktop. You'll have to climb the publication in the ipad to see the result.
    Do not forget to retouch the css. Read this:
    http://digitalpublishing.tumblr.com/post/3898796141/animate-headlines-or-other-things
    Is the simplest way to make simple animations I've found.
    I hope you find it helps

  • Hyperlinks not working in Adobe Content Viewer?

    Hey
    I'm trying to link a photo to another page in InDesign. It doesn't really matter how I do it, it's mainly important that it works .
    So far I have managed to create a working hyperlink from a photo to a page, and it works on my computer. But as soon as I test it out in Adobe Content Viewer, nothing happens when I press the photo.
    Is this possible to do?
    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 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.

  • How can I view content that I've archived on the iPad Adobe Content Viewer?

    Sorry, I'm new to the DPS process. I tapped "Archive" in the Adobe Content Viewer thinking that I would be able to retrieve it from the archive. I haven't been able to find that capability yet! I've tried renaming the document in InDesign and updating, thinking the project would appear in the content viewer. Again, no dice. I even deleted the content viewer from the iPad and reinstalled. Logged out, logged in. No dice. I cannot seem to have any luck seeing my project again. It was displaying just fine earlier today. Damn curiosity! Why did I tap on the archive button? Any help would be much appreciated!
    Cheers,
    Dave

    I guess what I was asking is when you tap Archive in the Adobe Content Viewer on the iPad there is a pop-up that says "Are you sure you want to Archive?" and "This item will be removed from your device. You may download it again at anytime for free." But there is no option to do this within the iPad app! At least none that I can see.
    I ended up creating a new folio with the same articles. It works now, but the archive function is not intuitive! It should work the same as when you archive magazines in the Newstand app. I mean, that's how people expect it to work. I guess in Adobe speak archive = delete!
    Anyway, if you archive something it removes it from the app and you will not see a download button.
    Thanks!
