How do I Activate Single Edition App

Hi,
I have my project in the DPS App Builder and in order to download it to my iPad for review I am being asked to activate my Single Edition App by purchasing a serial number. I have gone to Creative Cloud and paid for a CC Single-App membership for inDesign. Am I supposed to be emailed a serial number in order to proceed? What is the procedure or have I purchased the wrong App?

Hi Bob,
Thanks for that. Much appreciated.
Can I cancel the CC single-app membership I already paid for and move to the full CC subscription?
Also will this allow me to review my app on my iPad?

How to migrate a single edition app, to a Pro account?

Hello
A customer has an application uploaded to the Store, and has now acquired a pro and want to migrate that application to the new qiosco.
At transladar entire publication to the new account Multi-folio, I have to add or Add New App version in the application that already existed?
thank you very much

Yes, if the certificates are still valid then you can re-use them. Create new new build in Viewer builder and send in the update. you may want to edit the metadata in i-Tunes before uploading the new binary. In multi issue apps, there can be multiple product id's. Each folio will have it's unique product id. Bundle id/App id would remain the same.

Single Edition App Requiring to Activate App

Hi
I am in DPS app builder and completed all the steps for Single Edition App. After clicking on "Create App" and "Finish" It took me to a screen where I can see my app. But there is a "Activate App" link which requires me to enter a serial number. I have Creative Cloud membership for Indesign, Photoshop and Lightroom.
How would the DPS app builder recognize me as the cc member, what steps and how do it do those ?
Thanks in advance.

You have to have a full CC membership to get access to Single Edition. It is not included when you use CC to get individual products.

Single Edition App question regarding using the activation number

Hello,
I am producing a single edition app for a client. We have purchased a single edition package and I have the serial number. I have created the app and done all the certificates and provisioning stuff...
My question is now that it is built and I would like to download a version for testing purposes it is asking me for the serial number to activate it.
After I enter the serial number will I be able to go back and make changes to it as needed before I publish? Or how does this work? I just want to make sure I dont activate this and am then stuck with the results if changes need to be made. I'm sure the answer is fairly obvious but just wanted to check with people who have had past experiences. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Yes, you should be able to make changes, but I can’t let this pass without reminding you that you could have gotten unlimited apps for year and every Creative Cloud application and service for less than you paid for that one app.

Can you publish a DPS single edition app to the android and googleplay marketplace?

I can't find a simple answer anywhere. On one of the pages it says "Publish everywhere- Every device, every platform' but it does not confirm whether this is possible for single edition apps or how it can be done. Can anyone help? Much appreciated.

Hi, this is iPad only. Please see this table: Digital Publishing Suite Help | DPS supported feature list

Single edition App

Hi,
I've a Professional Edition account.
I want to create a Single Edition App for iPhone but with my app builder a can select only "Più Folio". See attachment ("iPad_and_iPhone")
If I select only iPad I can create an App Single Edition. See attachment ("Only_iPad")
How it's possible.
I can't create a Single Edition App for iPhone??
Thanks
Berto

Single Edition is iPad only. All other platforms require a multi folio app.

Single Edition App rejected!

I just had my single edition app rejected by apple.
Here's the reported problem:
Your app has the UIFileSharingEnabled key set to true in the Info.plist, but this feature is not functional.
When file sharing is enabled, the entire Documents folder is used for file sharing. Files that that are not intended for user access via the file sharing feature should be stored in another part of your application's bundle. If your application does not require the file sharing feature, the UIFileSharingEnabled key in the Info.plist should not be set to true.
For discrete code-level questions, you may wish to consult with Apple Developer Technical Support. Please be sure to prepare any symbolicated crash logs, screenshots, or steps to reproduce the issues for when the DTS engineer follows up. For information on how to symbolicate and read a crash log, please see Tech Note TN2151 Understanding and Analyzing iPhone OS Application Crash Reports.
Any ideas how I fix that? Is that even an option in the Viewer Builder?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Bob,
Our app was rejected AGAIN and for the same reason!. I went through the steps in the builder again, and downloaded a new distribution zip file to submit to apple. Is there any way I can verify that this flag will not be set before I submit to Apple again? Waiting a week in between app rejections is pretty painful, and frustrating. Agan, ours is an Enterprise account with entitlements enabled for a mulit-issue publication.

Single Edition APP serial number?

As a Creative Cloud member, it's supposed to be free to receive unlimited Single Edition App serial numbers. WHERE? HOW? I've been going in circles and haven't found the right place to create, generate or receive a serial number.

Try the Creative Cloud forum, or forum for single edition app (whatever that is) if it has it's own forum, in forums.adobe.com.
This is the forum for (free) digital editions

Why "Single Edition-App" and not "Professional"?

Hi, I've got 2 questions :
1. We've changed our Single Edition Account (two weeks ago) to a Professional Account.
Written in the DPS App Builder-panel is unfortunately still "Single-Edition-App."
How can I change this or is that normal?
2. How can I make an App for the iPad AND for iPhone to distribute on the App Store?
Is that possible with my professional Account? And what's the correct App-Type for that? I only can choose "Multi Folios", "Multi Folios with iTunes Abonnement", "Adobe Content Viewer".
Thanks for help

Hi Phillipe,
you need to rebuild your app using DPS App Builder if you want to change the app type, it does not automatically change when you switch to Professional Edition. You will then also have to resubmit it to the App Store.
Professional Edition allows you to create an app for iPad and iPhone. The app type depends on the kind of content you are offering with your app. Multiple versions of the same folio aimed at different devices are called renditions. You would need to choose "Multi Folio" for that. If you want to enable your readers to subscribe to your publication you would need to select "Multi Folio with iTunes Subscription".
Your second question cannot be answered comprehensively in a forum post as it involves just too many things. There is a lot of documentation available on the DPS help pages on the topics of the different app types, app creation and app distribution. Maybe start with this article Understanding different types of DPS apps and take it from there. There is also a Publishing Companion Guide available to download from the the DPS Dashboard which I can recommend.

Creative Cloud membership for Single Edition App?

Trying to publish single edition app and I am thinking that a creative cloud membership is the way to go. Just wondering...
If my Creative Cloud membership expires, does it effect anything I have submitted to the App Store? Or is it more like,"once it's up, it's up" ?
Also do I have to be both a Developer and a Creative Cloud member? Can I use the account of another Developer along with my own Creative Cloud Single Edition to make an App? Or do both accounts need to belong to the same person for this to work?
Thanks for any advice

If you CCM subscription expires that will not effect the app which you submitted to App store.
I would suggest you to use your own Apple developer and CCM to make app instead of other person.

Can you create a single edition app with CC Enterprise?

My company have Creative Cloud Enterprise edition and I would like to create a simple single edition app. It's going to be a one off free app and I have no requirement for all the bells and whistles that Enterprise offers plus with it being free it would cost me because of the $0.30 per download fee. Does anyone know if this can be done or am I going to have to start looking at alternatives?

You could sign up for the full version of Creative Cloud which will enable you to build a Single Edition app before that support is removed from Creative Cloud on May 1st. You'd create a new app in InDesign using the Create App menu item in Folio Builder Panel. After you create the app and submit it you could then cancel your Creative Cloud subscription.
Note that you would need to get support to help you set the version number of your new app high enough to replace your existing app in iTunes. If you plan to go the CC route let me know and I can assist in making sure the version number is updated on your app appropriately.

Single Edition Apps

Apologies for a newbie kind of question, but I'm wanting to know about publishing a single use app via our Adobe CC subscription.
The idea is a learning exercise to design + publish an app that I'd want to update fairly regularly - its tied to sports stats and infographics with interactivity, which I'd want to update through the season (at times every 1-2 weeks), but it could be 14 or so times in a year. Is this practical?
I would favour each update submitted to have fairly substantial additions each time as I want to give anyone who downloads it extra, new stuff each time… but do Apple get frustrated or tetchy about constant and/small updates to single edition apps? Do they critique stuff?
The app would be FREE.
Also, if an update is accepted, do people who have downloaded a previous version get notified, or would I have to do this via Twitter or similar.
Thanks.
Craig

Thanks for the replies, Neil and Bob
I though this might be the case - I understand their reasons. Its almost like there needs to be an inbetween license for small publishers maybe, for non-commercial apps. Clearly what I want to do is beyond the single edition license, but the cost of the other license types is simply beyond me.
However, I think I can still tackle it. What I have developing does have plenty of interactive content for users (certainly cpompared to some stuff I have seeen), but I may just have to prepare it all as more of a season's 'retrospective analysis', then submit it to Apple to avoid constant updates.
Above all, its a process of learning DPS - that's the main thing. Its really just starting to make its presence felt here in New Zealand, so its a pretty exciting product… especially for an old print dog liek me who needs some new tricks!
Cheers guys.

Update an Single edition app with different (pro) account

Hello,
I have question regarding updating SE apps.
1. From what I understand you can still create single edition apps for ipads after May 1st with a pro account, correct?
2. If I create an app now, with my CC account, can I later, after May 1st, create a professional account under a different name (company name, not mine) and update my old app? (assuming that my apple account and certificates stays the same)
Thank you
Alex

1. Yes.
2. Yes.

If we upgrade to a Professional Edition DPS license can we create an unlimited number of Single edition apps for iPad, iPhone and Android devices?

I work for a organisation based in Sydney and we have a team license for creative cloud (single edition).
We have been producing single folio apps for the iPad and want to continue this through 2015.
At the moment we can only create apps for the iPad platform. If we upgrade to a Professional Edition DPS license can we create an unlimited number of Single edition apps for iPad, iPhone and Android devices?
We do not need multi-folio apps as we are not a publishing company.

Thanks Neil
I sent an email yesterday and am awaiting a reply. Here is my email for reference.

We are not a publishing company so we will produce a small number of the apps. If you could get back to me with a solution and approx price that would be great.
Thanks for your time

Problem with single edition App v32

I'm trying to create a single edition App using v32, but when I download the ".ipa" and transfer to my iPad the app opens in blank.
It seams that there is no folio inside it, but I have already tried with different folios and zips, and the same problems occurred.
Can anyone help me?
I already have an App and I'm editing the App with the new folio to update it.
I'm testing in an iPad air with iOS8.
I don't know what can I do to fix it.

hi Bob,
Thanks for response. It is so frustrating.
This is the rejection message i got. I am only trying to update an existing iPad only app.
Have latest version of everything. And i did a complete rebuild but have re-linked them all and then done the build (viewer version 32).
Get no errors when i build and the development and distribution app are put onto my mac.
when i look in my adobe viewer on iPad it is fine. but when i try and look at the loaded .ipa ..i get splash screen then blank screen...
