DPS Desktop tools for InDesign?

The other day I saw this (link) about Adobe Digital Publishing Suite and was briefly interested in it. I requested a demo to learn more about it, but somehow I was never able to learn much about it and soon I just forgot about it. Later today I noticed I have two updates for Indesign (both CC and 2014) but discovered it was actually to update them with DPS Desktop tools. But, I have not updated them....just not yet!! I don't know if it is because I had shown interested in Digital Publishing Suite that the tools are automatically added to InDesign in my account? And does it cost extra if I have to use DPS Desktop tools? (It never said anything about how much it cost to use Digital Publishing Suite anyhow.)
Honestly I don't really know about Digital Publishing Suite...not enough info...and I'm kinda concerned because I could unwittingly have done something I am not ready for, and could end up paying hidden costs I know nothing about. :S
Thanks.

Hi Tadavi77,
Digital Publishing Suite is basically an addon to InDesign application and comes as an update.
Digital Publishing Suite is meant to create digital publication for different mobile devices e.g. iPhone, Android, Kindle etc.
Please refer the following overview article and video tutorial.
Digital publishing software, mobile apps | Adobe Digital Publishing Suite
Learn Digital Publishing Suite | Adobe TV
Hope this helps.

DPS Desktop Tools Install Failure

I am trying to install DPS Desktop Tools for Indesign 2014 and get the following error message:
Looking through the Console logs I find the following error message. I have repaired permissions and verified the directory.
gkbisd[129]: Unable to collect cdhash for /Applications/Utilities/Adobe Application Manager/core/Adobe Application Manager.app (error code 100024)
Any ideas?

DPS Tools for InDesign CS5 / CS5.5

Hi everyone.
Can't find download link of DPS Tools for InDesign CS5 / CS5.5. on Adobe site.
We plan to use CS5/CS5.5, cause we use WoodWing Enterprise in production.
Anyone can help us to download latest builds for CS5/CS5.5?
Thanks
Thanks

Hi Tomek
I know about that, but WoodWing customer can still use InDesign CS5/CS5.5.
Quote from dps-faq-indesign5and5.5:
>>>
How did this product change impact me if I am a WoodWing or vjoon K4 customer?
WoodWing and vjoon K4 pure EWS customers see no impact. WoodWing and vjoon continues to work for InDesign CS5 and CS5.5, however the creation of folios will be capped at v31. Pure refers to the vjoon customers using only the vjoon K4 user interface that do not also use the folio builder panel.
Hybrid WoodWing and K4 customers (those that do not disable Folio Builder panel and those using the Overlay Creator panel) are impacted. The Folio Builder Panel no longer functions in CS5 and CS5.5. v31 will be the last release for Overlay Creator panel and the Digital Publishing plugin for CS5 and CS5.5. There will be no updates or bug fixes to the Overlay Creator panel or Digital Publishing plugin for InDesign CS5 and CS5.5.
<<<
So we need to download v.31 tolls.
Could you help me with that?

Fail U44M2I218 updating CS6 dps desktop tools

I watched an adobe.tv demo of Folio usage, and decided to try it.
I booted InDesign purchased as part of my CS6 upgrade, and opened the Folio Builder window.
It asked me to log in with an AdobeID. I did so, and got a message that my folio software was out of date. I tried letting the Adobe updater find that InDesign needed an upgrade -- it said not. So I pressed the link, downloaded the 2.03 updater, stopped InDesign, and tried to run it.
The updater immediately failed, with an Adobe Application Manager window referring me to a log file. I opened the log file, and it said:
DPS Desktop Tools CS6 2.03 Update
There was an error installing this update. Please quit and try again later. Error Code: U44M2I218
Great help, as in 1964 mainframe software great. An error code with zero explanation? Try later?? Some phase of moon? I would let you be aware that in a past I am actually deeply experienced at designing highly complex software -- natural language/graphical etc.. You haven't told me a thing here.
I try the web, and that error code exists for Adobe, but has no reference for this particular DPS package, on or off the Adobe site. There are occasional terse, quite unpleasantly phrased, and entirely uniformative Adobe person responses for other packages - no further comment to make on this aspect, but arrogance should be ashamed.
While I am trying to get proper window names for this article, I start InDesign CS6 again. Now the Folio Builder mini-window is open, left over from last run. It actually seems to operate -- this in common with some other failed packages mentioned on the web with this code.
- what on this earth does U44M2I218 _mean_?
- what is 'later', as in 'try again later'?
- how would I know that this update actuallly worked, or what update level I am actually on?
- why didn't the normal Adobe Update Manager take care of recognizing and unstalling this update, as it has quite many already with Design/web Premium CS6?
Don't you think this is a bit of a mess?
Thanks for a fix. I'll go now and post this on some bug reporter recommended, which I would no longer be able to find if I hadn't kept the original fail window open. Oh. It's the generic we-don't-really-want-to-hear-so-fix-it-yourself maxi-page. I think I can drill for an ability to speak, given enough patience.
Well, i couldn't. I ended up right back here. Thinking about the thousands of dollars and many, many hours I and others have given you over the years, and the personal involvement.

Uwe, thank you.
That was very helpful, and appreciated.
Here's the rest of the tale:
- in fact, I was using the downloaded updater, gotten from the link on the Folio Builder panel where it blocked further access.
- I tried again about an hour later. This time the previously downloaded and failing updater worked as expected, running through the Adobe Application Manager, which it launched itself. This had clearly not run before. I am thinking it was a phone-home internet issue which brought the error.
- result seems to be that the update went fine. The version numbers I could find have nothing to do with the 2.03 overall version, so trusting that the package did the right thing. Adobe should normalize of course so the parts etc. contain the overall version as well as their own.
- I understand you perfectly about the lack of sync between the panel worry-response and the actual availability of the automatic update. I think Adobe should not allow this to happen; it's a classic operating system issue, and can be solved.
- I do remember now that the DPS is a system booting into progress. Fine, but if they do that on operational status, responsibility is to make it very smooth, isn't it.
Vielen dank, und Ich glaube, dass meistens software bei Deutsches entwicklers sollen geschaffen sein . Viele besser Erfolg kommt...immer mit die Sorgfalt.
Do you guess I miss very much living nearby? In Basel, and I just met some nice folk just moved there, on their holiday this evening in San Diego.
Grüss,

Problems with CC DPS desktop tools

When I download CC DPS Desktop tools and I try to install it, the system tells me to update first Indesign CC with the update in indesign CC help menu, but the update voice is not selectable. How can I do?

I too am lost trying to install the DPS tools for InDesign CC (Windows). I have seen a downloadable patch that I can't apply, I have seen advice to run the update from the help menu, but there are no updates available, and I have tried downloadable installers that don't seem to do anything. I still don't have the DPS tools in my extensions!

Error in updating DPS Desktop Tools CS6 32.0.0 and Photoshop Camera Raw 8.7.1 (CS6)

When I tried to update DPS Desktop Tools CS6 32.0.0 and Photoshop Camera Raw 8.7.1 (CS6) in Adobe Photoshop I get the following errors in the error log:
DPS Desktop Tools CS6 32.0.0 Update
There was an error installing this update. Please quit and try again later. Error Code: U44M1I208

I purchased Adobe Creative Suite with my Mac so I have an installed version. I have tried rebooting, but to no avail. When I search for help on the site, none of the help explanations fit (e.g., delete a folder that doesn't exist on my computer). I have a 27 inch iMac running OS X Yosemite version 10.10.1. Thanks.

Sscrase what specific error messages did you receive within the installation log files for the update?

DPS Desktop Tools CS6 2.05.1 Update Update is not applicable. Error Code: U44M2P28

I want to update CS Indesign CS6 to get the Folio Overlay plugin, but the updates could not be applied. The error log shows:
DPS Desktop Tools CS6 2.05.1 Update
Update is not applicable. Error Code: U44M2P28
Could anyone help me?

Actually, I want to get the Folio Overlay, I just get the Folio Builder in InDesign CS6 (Mac) only.
And I can't make an updates under the window column, can you find out what's the problem? Many thanks.

DPS Desktop Tools Update CS6. Help.

Any help will be appreciated on this...
On my Mac running Snow Leopard, I was able to successfully install my Creative Cloud Subscription CS6 apps yesterday (so far, so good). Installed Photoshop, InDesign and Illustrator.
When I launched InDesign, I went to "Help" and "Updates..." and noticed a "DPS Desktop Tools CS6 2.01 Update" was available from the updater.
(I did my due diligence and noticed on the Adobe.com downloads page that that update was indeed available).
So I ran the update through the updater (AAM) within the application. It said it installed successfully.
Here is my question related to this install...
When I open up the Console app and go to "/library/logs" and "Adobe" and "Installers," I see a log file called "DPS Desktop Tools CS6 2.0.0.395..." that took place at the time I made my installation -- Not anything about a 2.01 update.
My concern is that I installed an erroneous update within CS6...or that there was a snafu of some sort.
If anyone can confirm either way whether or not this update is legit???
Thanks in advance.

Hi MavBridge,
I am adobe employee working on Installer, Updater and AAM. Please don't worry about the log file and the update you installed is legit. Logs are normally named with the product and build number and not the exact update version so once again please don't worry about the logs.
Thanks

Need DPS Desktop Tools old version to replace 2.06 update

Can Adobe or anyone tell me how I can get a download of the previous update to DPS desktop tools (2.05?) - that is, the one previous to Jan 25 2013 2.06 update.
There's a bug in the update with embedding iFrames, and I'm on deadline for an app that uses several iFrames.
I really need to get the last version reinstated, where iFrames were working just fine.
The official line is "We've confirmed there's an issue with iframe-hosted content produced with the v25 tools. This is, unfortunately, how youtube videos are hosted in folios. We are working on a fix." (No time given)

I'm upset that the update code wasn't checked before release.
My client is a weekly newspaper using many iFrames. I have a deadline in 6 hours.
Can you suggest a workaround?
I've tried embedding old html style code with no effect. Have also tried using HTML from BrightCove no effect.

How to package DPS Tools for InDesign CC

Hi,
We are using the creative cloud packager to deploy Adobe CC at my College. I tried integrating the DPS tools version 32 for Indesign CC 2014 :
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=182&platform=Macintosh
But it doesn't work. Here's what I tried
Start Indesign and go in Help > updates. Doesn't work because it is greyed out
Building a new package and give it the path to the patch folder (AdobeDigitalPublishingCC2014)
Simply double click on the patch on one of the computers. Doesn't work, it says that the updates are disabled.
Is there a way to enable software updates once Adobe CC is deployed? If not, how can we package the updates in our installer.
Thank you!
Martin

Hi dshink,
Kindly check : Disable auto-updates | Application Manager | IT administrators
Please revert if the problem persists.

Installing DPS tools for Indesign CC error

Hi,
I'm trying to install DPS-tools for CC, while CS 6 is still on our Macs (School with CS6-students @home) and I get the error, your administrator is blokking upgrades.
While i'm logged in as admin on my computer.
Though Folio Builder works on CS6 but i can't update (the folio builder tools) it either.
We would prefer to teach folios etc. in CC.
Gr
Sam
Chatted with an Adobe-support-guy, its a print related issue, here's there number. 800 .....

Sam then it is likely the packages were modified to prevent this functionality. Please utilize the Creative Cloud Packager to create new deployment packages. You can find more details at http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/packager.html.
If you have any inquiries regarding the process I would recommend posting to the Enterprise Deployment for Creative Cloud, Creative Suite forum - http://forums.adobe.com/community/download_install_setup/creative_suite_enterprise_deploym ent.
