Folio Builder not working in InDesign

This morning my Folio Builder panel in InDesign stopped working. It's become just a big gray rectangle. It was fine on Friday.
Running the newest version of Folio Builder in InDesign CS5.5 on Windows 7.
Any ideas?

Hey Thanks Andrew! But yeah, I tried that a couple of times. I think it was more of an InDesign issue than anything else. Even my KULER extension was having a hard time. For some reason I kept getting a “No internet connection detected.” message, even tho I was connected to the internet…
Ahh well… All’s well that ends well.

Folio Builder Not working

Folio Builder panel is requesting I download the latest update which I have done and installed and restarted. However Folio Builder panel is requesting I download like nothing happened.
I am using Indesign CS5.5 and have updated the correct download for this version. Appreciate some help with this. Thank you.

There is some small bug.
I had the similar problem.
I work on WXP and I have installed CS5.5 on nonsystem disk.
But installator of Folio Builder did not detect it and created new folders on system disk C.
I only copied content of this folders to the right place.
Now is everything OK.

I cannot get folio builder to work in CS6 InDesign.

I cannot get folio builder to work in InDesign. I have updated InDesign and uploaded a new all language CS6 plugin for InDesign apps but still the program says I don't have the necessary files and redirects me to the plugins I already downloaded. I am not certain what is wrong.

DPS questions should be asked in the DPS forum. I've moved your question there.

Why I can't use the Folio Builder panel on my Indesign 5.5?

When I launch the Folio Builder panel in my Indesign 5.5. There is a message that says "To start the digital publishing authoring process, please download the update for the Folio Producer components and relaunch your application." I have downloaded the "FolioProducerTools-CS55-1-9-1.zip", installed it and restarted my machine but when I launch the Folio Builder panel again and it has the same message so does anybody know what I have missed?
Thanks!

Thanks Bob for your super fast reply. Cheers!

VBA-script not working in InDesign

Goal: To have text placed from Word formatted in the paragraph styles I like. I receive the text from other authors and they are formatted with standard Word paragraph style formatting.
Two solutions:
Format the text in Word (change paragraph styles) using VBA, place/import it and somehow make sure that InDesign uses the styles I already defined in InDesign, not the way that style is defined in Word. I can't figure out how to do this.
Do the formatting in InDesign, using script. But the VBA-macro does not work in InDesign.
How may I change the code in order to work in InDesign? The code should look for specific paragraph styles and change them or the style of the next paragraph.
Sub stilSkifte()
Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToPage, Which:=wdGoToNext, Name:="1"
Dim para As Paragraph
For Each para In ActiveDocument.Paragraphs 'søk gjennom hvert enkelt avsnitt i dokumentet
   On Error Resume Next
    'INGEN MELLOMROM og overskriftene
    If para.Range.Style = "Ingen mellomrom" Then
        para.Style = "Normal"
        GoTo SisteLinje 'Gå til linja i koden som heter SisteLinje, = gå til neste avsnitt
    End If
    If para.Range.Style = "Overskrift 1" Then
        para.Style = "Tittel-små"
        GoTo SisteLinje 'Gå til linja i koden som heter SisteLinje, = gå til neste avsnitt
    End If
    If para.Range.Style = "Overskrift 2" Then
        para.Style = "Ingress"
        GoTo SisteLinje 'Gå til linja i koden som heter SisteLinje, = gå til neste avsnitt
    End If
    If para.Range.Style = "Overskrift 3" Then
        para.Style = "mellomtittel"
        GoTo SisteLinje 'Gå til linja i koden som heter SisteLinje, = gå til neste avsnitt
    End If
    'NORMAL til BYLINE
    If para.Range.Style = "Ingress" Then
        If para.Next.Style = "Normal" Then
            para.Next.Style = "byline1"
        End If
           GoTo SisteLinje
    End If
    If para.Range.Style = "byline1" Then
        If para.Next.Style = "Normal" Then
            para.Next.Style = "byline2"
        End If
           GoTo SisteLinje
    End If
   'Hvis avsnittet er i NORMAL og det neste er...
    If para.Range.Style = "Normal" Then
        '...i NORMAL endres dette til NORMAL M INNRYKK
        If para.Next.Style = "Normal" Then
            para.Next.Style = "Normal med innrykk"
        End If
        GoTo SisteLinje
    End If
SisteLinje: Next
End Sub
I apriciate any suggestions!

Thank you Kasyan, but it doesn't work as I expected it to. The InDesign style are somtimes overridden, sometimes not. It seems to have something to do with wether the Word-style is based on another Word-style or not. In addition I have my InDesign styles grouped, and when InDesign upon placing a text doesn't find the style on the top level, it imports the Word-style.
My solution:
Change Word-styles so they are not based upon another style
Running the VBA-code in Word
Placing the text using "Use InDesign style definition" for paragraph and character styles conflicts.
Editing the imported InDesign styles so that they are based upon and equals the original InDesign style in the respective group

Spotlight still not working in inDesign

Why is it that after nearly TWO years the spotlight function in the open dialogue box is still not working in inDesign? Is this some sort of sick joke from the inDesign programmers? Why can it work when in the PASTE dialogue box but not the OPEN dialogue box? I discovered this fault years ago and wrote about it in length but it has yet to be addressed.

Thank you Daniel,
I omitted posting that the Search box in my Systems Preferences Window used to work, so that I do know what to look for: as I type letters the preference panes whose description contains the (partial) word I am typing should be highlighted by an undimmed circle.
Unfortunately, in my case, the behavior I have is that regardless of what I type in the Search box in my Systems Prefernces Window, no icons are ever highlighted. Indeed, I can type the complete name of a preference pane, for example 'bluetooth', and while my entire Systems Preferences Window is dimmed, neither my Bluetooth preference pane icon nor any other preference pane icon is highlighted through the use of an undimmed circle about it.
This failure of the Search box in the Systems Preferences Window has been experienced by other people. For example in this forum, viz:
Reindexed my HD but no Spotlight preference in Preferences
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=876847
Unfortunately the solution posted in the above thread was to manually delete the ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.preferencepanes.cache and ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.preferencepanes.searchindexcache files. And as I posted I've tried not only manually deleting the above two files in terminal.app, but also deleting all of my cache files through the use AppleJack 1.4.3. Neither steps have returned the Search box in my Systems Preferences Window to working order.
Alas, I'm still looking for suggestions...

Key combination Shift+Alt+Cmd+D does not work in Indesign CC, why not?

Is it assigned to something in the shortcut set you are using?

Linotype Decoration Pi will not work with InDesign CS6

Linotype Decoration Pi Font will not work with InDesign CS6. If I buy a new version from the Sdobr store, will it work?

Has the font ever worked in CS6? If not, did it work in a previous version? Did it ever work in any version of ID using your current OS version? I ask the last question because I helped someone on another forum today that had a font that did not survive migration on their Mac. In their case, the font was selectable but the application would crash exporting to PDF or printing.
I'm using a PC. It works here.
It is listed along with the fonts that start with D here.

Tab Key Not Working in InDesign HTML5 based panel
Instead of changing focus to next entry field when the tab key is pressed it hides the panel instead.
UI Nightmare.

I’m using editable text fields. When I hit tab nothing happens. Focus stays on current text field.

Folio Builder unavailable after updating InDesign

I purchased a subscription to the Creative Cloud so I could get access to the Digital Publishing Suite tools in InDesign. I downloaded a new version of the Adobe Application Manager as indicated, updated InDesign CS6 (it current shows InDesign CS6 as "Up to date") and attempted to access the Folio Builder. I get the following message in the Folio Builder panel:
A software update is required to use Digital Publishing Suite. Please go to the Help menu and select Updates to get the required software.
What do I need to do to gain access to the DPS software?

One more note:
After purchasing CC I though I would be able to install the Digital Publishing Suite as an app though it did not appear in Adobe Application Manager. I went on the support chat and asked why it wasn't available for download and they (yes, I was transferred to the next level three times and it was the fourth person who told me this) that when I update InDesign the tools would become available within the application. I looked, saw the Folio Builder panel and assumed he was right. Now, two days later I try to start working and I get the error above.
I might be missing something big. Perhaps my question should be, I have paid for Creative Cloud which includes the Digital Publishing Suite (according to the DPS page on Adobe's site), how do I get it on my computer (at least the parts that should be on my comptuer. I am very confused at this point.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Folio Preview NOT working

Hi - I am running window 7 64bit and adobe could services for all required adobe applications.
InDesign is installed and the "Folio Preview" is not working. I have tried the "Preview", "Preview on Desktop" from "Folio Overlays" and the "Folio Preview" from the "File" menu, but get the same result. I have looked for the content viewer and noticed that it ins not installed. Please help!

Here's my response to a similar issue on another thread:
Are you on Windows or a Mac? I'm going to assume Mac for now:
1) Check and make sure the Adobe Content Viewer shows in your Applications folder. If it does, run it and then try previewing again.
2) If it's installed but preview still doesn't work try fixing up the file type assocation for .folio. See http://forums.adobe.com/message/4617478.
3) If it isn't installed try installing it from /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Installers/AdobeDigitalPublishingCS6/ContentViewer/Adob eContentViewer.air
If you are on Windows the location for the install in step 3 is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Installers\AdobeDigitalPublishingCS6\ContentViewer\AdobeC ontentViewer.air"

Undo not working in Indesign CC 2014

My indesign CC is not working with Undo. How do i fix this. Never had a problem with Indesign until now!!! Ever since I updated to Mavericks and CC2014 my indesign is whacky. Also does not update things without saving.

That's almost always because of system or third party software that's stealing your keyboard shortcuts.
Check System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts. Investigate third party software and browsers that may be operating at the same time.
If necessary, set up a new user and launch InDesign in the new user to check the problem.

Shift commands not working in InDesign CC 2014

All commands were working fine last week but opened up InDesign today and for some reason all the Shift-based commands are not working properly (i.e. automatically drawing 45 degree angles and proportionally resizing shapes). Working on a Macbook Pro 2012 running Yosemite 10.10.1

Type to selection tool quick command not working in InDesign CC

When I have the type tool selected in InDesign and hold command for the selection tool, it's not working. When I hold the command button it highlights the selection tool, but as soon as I click my mouse, it reverts back to the type tool. Also, when I change the size of my text box it does not resize the text in the box, even if I hold for a a few sec before moving the cursor.

@Cindy – usually all 3rd party developers will provide some information for installing and uninstalling their products. First see if you can find some information on their web sites.
Also there should be a dedicated Adobe Extension Manager app where you can look up the installed parts of InDesign. Since I do not have InDesign CC installed, I do not know exactly, but its name should be something like "Adobe Extension Manager CC".
If you start this app it will show all parts installed with InDesign (or other apps that are installed).
Usually at the bottom of the list are the 3rd party installed components. They do not state "Adobe Incoroprate System" as author. Never uninstall (remove) the Adobe ones!
Here a screen grab from my German Adobe Extension Manager CS5:
If you select one, a new option is available at the right. In my case here the "Entfernen" button ("Remove" in English).

"Place video from URL" not working in InDesign CC 9.1

Has anyone come across why an H.264 encoded mp4 file won't embed into InDesign CC, but will in CS6? Last week I upgraded from Indesign 9.0 (where it was working) to Indesign 9.1 (where it no longer works). Specifically, I'm using the "Place video from URL" option.
* I've tried several different servers to host the mp4 file (the servers do work). The mp4 URLs on each server do work in a browser, but not in Indesign CC.
* I've tried placing the mp4 URL in CS6 and that works fine.
* I've tried a coworker's Indesign CC, that didn't work.
* I've tried making a brand new file in Indesign CC, that didn't work.
I'm running InDesign 9.1 on Mac OS 10.8.5. It looks like Indesign 9.1 broke the "Place video from URL" Does anybody have a fix?
matt

Salah, thank you for the suggestion. However, when trying to paste the embed code into the "Place video from URL" field gets the following error, "The URL must start with 'http://' or 'rtmp://' and must end with a valid file extension."
Using the embed code never worked with Indesign--even before I was having the problems with the URL placement.
