DPS App Builder Download Issue

I guess I hijacked another thread, but I should have posted this separately since the issues are different. Here is my problem.
I am a CCloud subscriber.
In my case, I have do not have any sign-in errors with the Builder...The App building process "works" for a Single Edition App, but then on the final screen nothing is listed under "Downloads." Under App Details it says : Activate App, App Type: Built-in Single Edition App. When you click Activate it gives this message: Activate your Single Edition app by purchasing a serial number from the Adobe Store.
What's going on?
Any help would be appreciated.

Ok, here's what I will suggest.
Drag and drop DPS app builder to trash
Empty your trash
Reboot your machine
Launch InDesign and go to the "help" menu and check for updates.
Make sure Indesign is on the latest update
Re-download the latest version here https://digitalpublishing.acrobat.com/SignIn.html
Login to your folio builder panel with your credentials
Click and highlight your folio and go up to the flyout menu and click "create app"
Let me know the new result

I'm getting the "App Activate" error when I try to download my bundles from the DPS App Builder.

I have a Single-App subscription to the Adobe Creative Cloud.
According to this FAQ (link: http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/faq.html#single-app) I should be able to publish unlimited single .folios with DPS with my Single-App subscription to the Creative Cloud. Here is the exact paragraph I'm refering to from that FAQ:
As a Creative Cloud member, do I have access to Digital Publishing Suite?
Digital Publishing Suite Single Edition is not available to free Creative Cloud members. Creative Cloud single-app and complete members have an unlimited Digital Publishing Suite Single Edition license. Creative Cloud for teams members also have an unlimited Digital Publishing Suite Single Edition license.
When I build the app in the DPS App Builder and reach the end of the process, I'm getting the error where it asks me to provide a Single Edition subscription serial to download the developer bundles for my app.
I have tried all the methods described on this forum to solve this problem, including deleting and reinstalling the DPS App Builder, deleting the old apps and creating new ones after redownloading the DPS App Builder, deleting the DPS App Builder, signing out of my Folio Builder in InDesign, redownloading the DPS App Builder, signing into my Folio Builder in InDesign again, etc., to no avail.
Can anyone help? This is a time-sensitive issue and I'm trying to get this app into the Apple submission process immediately. I can answer any questions if you all have troubleshooting advice for me.
Thanks,
David

Thank you for the information and the response. We will be upgrading to the full version of Creative Cloud to publish our single .folio.
I do want to remark on the issues created by Adobe's inconsistent explanation of how DPS can be used with the Creative Cloud. After reading that FAQ, I also spoke with an "Adobe Agent" through the chat system that pops up on various product pages and asked the agent as specifically as I could if the Single-app version of Creative Cloud would allow me to publish single .folios through DPS. In no uncertain terms the agent said the Single-app version would be fine, and referred me to the order page to begin the order process.
I spoke with another agent over chat in the morning on Saturday and they also said I should be able to publish single .folios with the Singe-app subscription to Creative Cloud. When I presented my App Activation problem to the agent, the agent said I should just wait 24-48 hours for my subscription to Creative Cloud to process so I could create my app.
This has been a very vexing process that has cost my team valuable app review time. If I had not encountered the FAQ and two agents who specifically told me that I could use the Single-app version of Creative Cloud to publish my .folio, I would have been happy to go straight to purchasing the full version of Creative Cloud.
Thanks again for the assistance.

Problems downloading in the DPS App builder

I am having problems creating my test app in the DPS App builder.
I can create and send app from (InDesign CS6) the folio builder–to the DPS App builder, but when I reach the final screen nothing appears listed under the "Downloads" area. The app type only appears as "built-in single edition app" and directs me to 'activate app' and purchase a serial number, which is not what i want to do. I just want to download it to iTunes to test it on my personal iPad.
It's the same issue from this thread..
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4786587
I followed the steps closely (installing updates to InDesign, reinstalling the DPS App builder) but it is still not working.
I'm really stuck, help!!!
Ryan

Any CC membership will do. You need to firtly go to InDesign and use the create app link from Folio builder Panel, that will launch your DPS App Builder, sign in with your CCM id and create an app. You should be able to download the build, if not then we may need to delete your previous build, send me a PM with your Viewer Builder id.

If you are DPS single edition user, then you need to enter serial number to activate app.
But it would be more helpful if you let us know which DPS edition you have?

Keep asking a serial number when downloading the app via DPS App Builder

I've already created an app via InDesign and DPS App Builder, but the program don't let me download the app! It says I have to activate the produt with a serial number, but since I bought a Creative Cloud membership, I don't have any number. Any one know what can I do to make it work?
Here's the prints with the messages

Make sure that you follow Creative Cloud workflow by clicking on Create App from Folio Builder Panel. Also your delete your current build, reinstall DPS App Builder and Try again. If you do not have the delete button in your App builder, let us know.

Can't download the current version of DPS App Builder

It keeps going in a loop. I download it it installs, I sign in and it says the same thing "This version of DPS App Builder has expired. Please remove your existing version and download the latest release from http://www.adobe.com/go/digpubsuite_vb_mac"
I have followed all the instructions and removed the app… just keeps going in a loop to no where.

Clear your browser cache and then download it again. That'll do the trick.

DPS App Builder Sign and Download p12 problem

I'm working on my first multi-folio app. I have created the app in DPS App Builder, but when downloading the .ipa file, the Sign and Download dialogue flags the p12 file.
I recreated the p12 and mobileprovision files, rebuilt the app, and the same problem occurs. I looked at the forum and there was a suggestion that those files be placed in the root folder, but the situation is unchanged.
According to the Key Chain and my Apple Dev account, all certificates are valid.
My IOS dist and development certificates were created a several months prior. Don't know that it has anything to do with the mobileprovision and p12 certs which have been newly created today, but wanted to mention it in case I have to redo all certification files to get past this one step.
Any insight appreciated.
Rob

I figured it out. I was confusing the p12 file for the push notifications with the original developer p12 file. All fixed.

Cant sign to DPS app builder in to download distribution ZIP file

I cant sign in to DPS app builder, with the very same P12 and distribution certificate I used to create the app. the app is visible in the DPS app builder. however I just cant download it. Right before download it asks me to sign in... i define paths for P12 file and distribution certificate and i type my pass for P12 file... but after a while it returns me sign ion error message - conatantly.
Btw, my folio and article in it doenst have any special chars (only a-z). Thank you.

Try the following if you are a Creative Cloud customer:
1) Make sure DPS App Builder is no longer running on your machine. Go to the DPS App Builder menu and make sure you quit, so it's really shut down.
2) Sign out of Folio Builder Panel in InDesign, then close InDesign.
3) Run InDesign and sign into Folio Builder Panel
4) From Folio Builder Panel select Create App in the flyout menu and proceed with the app creation process.
If you are getting a signing failure, rather than a sign in failure, try the three solutions at http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-publishing-suite/kb/app-builder-error-signingfailed.html.

Cannot download developer app (.ipa) in DPS App Builder

I built my articles in InDesign CC 9.2.1, previewed the folio on my desktop and iPad. No problems.
I followed the instructions in the Step-by-Step Guide to Publishing iPad apps. Created the p12 certificates and mobile provisioning files. No problems.
Built the app following the steps on page 49. Select folio... Create app... Signed in... App Details panel... Icons and splash screens... Selected mobile provision files... Create app...
Everything worked....
But now I've hit a brick wall.
In the DPS App Builder I cannot download the developer app (.ipa) to test on my iPad...
I get a red outline around the developer p12 input field.
I've checked and re-output the developer p12 file and the password... tried again and again...
How can I fix this and move forward?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

OK it worked... fifth try...
I exported a new p12 development certificate from Keychain access (as described on pages 19-20).
Then I logged back into the DPS App Builder... Manage... download developer app (.ipa)... selected the new developer p12... and password....
... after getting a "server error"... tried again and it worked...
For the record I did not do anything different in each of my five attempts... but this time it worked and I was able to download the .ipa file to my desktop...

DPS App Builder - certificates and account issue

Hi,
I'm working on an App for a client who's going to use it internally with his employees.
My company has an Enterprise account and I'm a member of it.
Working with the Creative Cloud - not using the same email address as the Admin of the Enterprise account.
I finished creating the InDesign files, the certificates etc. I can launch "Create the app" in InDesign and fill the first steps in DPS App Builder but when I try to add the certificates it says:
"App ID inside the mobileprovision file contains "*". This type of mobileprovision app ID is only applicable for Enterprise signed builds. You will need to re-generate this file with a valid app ID."
Can the problem comes from the fact that I'm not logged into CC with the Enterprise Admin email address? Or because I'm set in the Enterprise Account as a member and not Admin?
Thank you for your help!

I figured it out. I was confusing the p12 file for the push notifications with the original developer p12 file. All fixed.

Is the DPS App Builder available as a separate download?

I have the Creative Cloud and have installations on both my workstation and laptop. I would like to be able to use the DPS App Builder but seeing as it is not available for Windows (NOT happy about that), I have no other option but to use a Mac for that portion of the workflow. That being the case I do have access to a Mac but I do not want to have to use one of my installations on a machine that I would barely use and that is not under my direct control. I also do not want to have to do this dancing activation stuff.
Is there a way to get the App Builder separate from InDesign so that I can make my files on my own machines and then create the app on the Mac?

Zakhana, you raise a good point about not having to use InDesign on the Mac to submit your app. It makes sense that DPS App Builder works only on a Mac since a Mac is required to create the Apple certificates and submit the app. Apple doesn't allow users to do either of those tasks on a Windows machine. But if you build your folios using a Windows computer, you should be able to use the Mac to sign in to the DPS App Builder directly rather than having to go through InDesign. As you mentioned, you can authorize your Mac, submit your app, and then deauthorize the Mac, but that's extra work.
This Create App workflow for Creative Cloud members also makes updating an app difficult. I'll see if there's a way to improve the Creative Cloud workflow on Windows and let you know what I find out.

DPS APP Builder Error Code 1

Hello,
I'm getting an Error Code 1 message when trying to download the test APP from the DPS APP Builder. I've tried re-building the document (a process that takes almost 8 hours in my case as our APP features 110 articles including almost 1000 images), updating it, generating new certificates and any other workaround mentioned in a previous discussion about this same subject. Nothing worked for me.
The only workaround I haven't tried is deleting the folio from ~/Library/Preferences/StageManager.BD092818F67280F4B42B04877600987F01 11B594.1/Local Store/dmp.
Apparently, there's nothing called "StageManager" in my MacBook Pro. Not in this route neither in any other route.
Any idea about how to solve this? (if possible without re-building once again the whole document) We can't wait until the error code 1 bug is fixed in future Adobe updates as we need to submit the APP to Apple next week.
Thanks for your time.

Anyone can help??
Update my latest experimental results.
I found that issue was folio package related.
Because when I use another folio package to the same app item in App Builder, this error message does not appear.
But the original package in exchange, this error information occurs.
Are there helpful to solve this problem?
