DPS Builder : creation d'une app multi-folio pour le newsstand de apple store

Bonjours,
Après différentes recherches, j'ai découvert la possibilité de faire une app multi-folio. j'ai vu les screenshots de DPS builder. hélas les options ne sont pas les mêmes. Je n'ai pas de case à cocher Newsstand, ni multi folio...
Je suis abonné a la CC. Est ce une option payante?
D'avance merci
C.

Bonjour.
Oui, avec votre abonnement CC, vous bénéficiez des apps en "Single Edition", ce qui correspond à la publication d'un livre. Pour réaliser une app "Multi-Folio", il vous faudra passer par un abonnement Professionnel ou Entreprise, qui vous permettra de choisir parmi ces options.

Sharing/Unsharing Apps in Folio Builder Panel - Tweaks

Adobe could help us out by cleaning up this Folio Builder panel feature.
Pasting a list of e-mail addresses has to be formatted juuuust right, otherwise it doesn't recognize them. When adding users it would be useful if there was some sort of memory/auto-fill that recognized previously added users from other folios. Perhaps a master list appears and we could just click to add users from that list. Showing the abbreviated address or name is also quite annoying (for example, when you add a user it formats the entry into a nice little "bubble" but truncates the info). Is this really necessary?
Thanks for being awesome.

Hi Ruthanne, thanks for the response, but it turns out the solution is:
Quit InDesign and any other CS apps.
First, delete the opm.db file located in /Users/"your user name"/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE/opm.db, and then start InDesign and try signing in to the panel.
Why that has taken Adobe support, four phone calls, and unhelpful advice, plus a link to a help article that I had to go through several links to find the answer to, I don't know.
It would help if the "DPS" support team were better trained, and rather than sendind emails with links to articles on them, had s stock number of troubleshooting steps to try I don't know.
I was advised to create a whole new user account, uninstall InDesign, and reinstall it on that user account to see if that solved the problem, but fortunately this simple fix cured it in my standard user account.
I have learned in a very painful and stressful way, that a lot of the information on the support forums is not up to date, and relates to CS5 and CS5.5, and that Adobe expect you to do a lot of the research into problems yourself, as they often don't know the cure. I know that DPS is very complex - but all the more reason to invest in better trained support staff.

Adobe Content Viewer app and .folio file

I created and published a .folio file on my Web server.
My boss downloaded the free Adobe Content Viewer app from iTunes for his iPad. When he tries to open the .folio file from his home screen it goes online to a browser and just shows a grey screen with an icon for the .folio file, its file size and nothing happens.
Am I missing something? The same .folio file works fine on my desktop version of Adobe Content Viewer. How do I get it to work in his app?
Thanks.

Found some other threads. Is this right?
1. Create my .folio file.
2. Host on my free Acrobat.com account.
3. Get viewer to get their own free Acrobat.com account and share doc URL with them.
4. They download file and view in the free Adobe Content viewer app for iPad.
Would check, but I don't have access to an iPad with live internet connection (yet).
Thanks.

App costs / .folio fulfilment bundles?

Hi – I have a corporate client with an Enterprise Edition licence.
They want us to produce a one-off magazine app for them.
Can anyone advise what additional/surprise costs I should alert them to?
An app designer has told us about .folio bundles, which is all new to me. He implied this was relevant to the Enterprise licence, though a quick look on forums/online suggests it applies more/solely to Professional Edition.
If they have an Enterprise licence, is the client going to be charged $0.30 for every download (after a certain "free" limit, e.g. 5,000pa or 250per month – is this limit what is referred to as a "fulfilment bundle")? Do they get a bill at the end of the month?
Are there any other costs the client should expect?
Thanks

Hi,
Fulfillment bundles are used with both Enterprise and Pro. First year 5000 downloads are included but some editions of Enterprise include more. Enterprise is available in an edition restricted to just 1 app. You need to know more about the license of your client.
You could combine content and app into a single-issue app requiring no purchase of fulfillments but:
a) That won't work with Android
b) No options for login
c) Download will be heavy and users won't be able to start reading before the entire download has completed.
d) You would need to resubmit the app to Apple + Google + ... and have it approved again - which will take 2 weeks each time.
Single-issue apps are great on Enterprise when used on iPad/iPhone in combination with limited distribution to a sales team. We have made around 30 of those. Otherwise... go with multi-issue apps and fulfillment.

Problems to download folios in the content viewer and in the app viewer

Hi there!!
I am having a problem and want to know if somebody can help me.
Since a few days, in 9 folios whose particular being very heavy (170-350 MB) can not be updated on the Ipad. On our test Ipads appears a message that the server is not responding.
Before last thursday I made multiple changes and updates to these folios and I doesn‘t have any problem to upload from InDesign and download and update the foliosin the Ipad. Even I built the viewer in the app builder and published one of the folios and the problem is the same.
I create an app (single folio) directly from InDesign using my creative cloud user and the app works good, but the idea it‘s include this folio in a viewer with many other contents.
Any advice!
Thanks!
Mauricio

Hi John,
This problem is new to you or already had before?
Because for me it‘s new, I've been working on these folios over a month, rising corrections uploading from InDesign and testing on ipads many times and had not had this kind of trouble!

I can't create an App with the Folio Builder!

Sorry, I'm trying to create my first App with Folio Builder but it always give me the following error message:
Error during application startup DPS App Builder.
The article '...' is not compatible with the viewer for what is published in the folio
Please help me!

Not sure of what the error message means. I'd like to investigate and report back here. Could you send an e-mail to the contact information I've PM you.
Thanks

Taking over app/folio building role

Hi all,
My firm has a published DPS app that I will be assuming responsibility for. Previously, a colleague uploaded/published (under his email) the folios that I created and he then built the app.
I'd like to update the folios and the app, using my credentials -- email, .p12's, etc., and I'd like it to be as transparent to the end users as possible. To be clear -- I'd prefer that the app merely appear to the user as an update -- with previously published folios appearing as updates as well. Here's my thinking and please let me know if I've missed something;
Email - may not be possible to update folios using my email and still have them be linked to the app? I may have to continue to use his email creds.
.p12 - I should be able to rebuild/update the app using my .p12/certificates/mobileprovisioning files, etc. and it wont show as a new app as long as I use the iTunes Connect tool to update.
Does this sound about right? Am I forgetting something?
BTW, we are both on the Apple Dev account.
thanks
dw

So it is possible to update an existing app and folios, invisibly to the end user, using new credentials. Yes it's posible. When you update the app, existing users will get an update as soon as it's approved by Apple. When the update is downloaded, it'll completely replace the old app with whatever content is published from the new e-mail.
To do so;
Republish the exisiting folios under the new email, but you must use the same ProductID from the previous published version/email.
On the iOS dev site, create new profiles (dev and dist), under the existing AppID.
That sound right?
The previously published folios wont show in the updated app, because theyre tied to the old email, through the old app. So I should leave the old folios in place for users that havent upgraded, correct? Correct, the old folios will be replaced with whatever is published from the new e-mail. So, if there's any folio from the old e-mail that you want to present and still be downloadable after the update, those folios needs to be published with the new e-mail too.
Also, if your app is enabled for subscription, the same Shared Secret Key from your iTunes Conntect In-App purchase must be copy-pasted into your new e-mail account using the DPS account administration panel for the subscription to entitle existing subscribers. Making sure the same product ID's for the old folios from the previous e-mail is used. Also the subscription product ID should remain the same.

Folio not in Developer App

Hello!
I'm having issues getting my folio to populate in my developer app. Things to note:
-The mobile provisioning files have the correct testing devices encoded.
-The app and folio are on V32.
-The iPad has been updated to the latest OS.
-The folio is published in the folio producer panel.
Any ideas? Thanks!

Hi Jessa,
Could you please let us know if the folio is published as a free folio or as a retail folio?
If it is published as a retail folio, have you created the corresponding In-App Purchase in iTunes Connect? Also make sure that the shared secret is updated in the Account admin panel for the Application Account.
Thanks,

DPS App Builder Login Fail when start in Folio Builder

After using Adobe Viewer to preview and check everything is OK in my folio, I clicked on "Create App" in Folio Builder. DPS App Builder then returns with "Sign in failed, please try again". If I start DPS App Builder individually, I can sign-in with my CC account without any problem. What is the problem? I used them on my machine to try to build apps and it actually worked before.

Bob
Yeah, I am a full CC and active subscriber. The install of App Builder was fresh, just did the update. I'll throw some new twists into the mix here, and I think it at least begins to narrow the landscape of the issue, but only to the degree that I think it isolated.
This problem issue, and a similar issue on another Mac where there is a sign in failure in App Builder, are all on managed computers, ones that my employer controls the admin [Univeristy]. On students' personal Macs, and my personal Mac at home, all is just fine, in fact just built a test app a few minutes ago. To me at least, this seems to be an issue of the App Builder not playing well in these kinds of user situations, namely when the user logged in has no admin control over the computer itself, only managed use of an account.
I will be consulting with my IT support, but honestly I think I am the one out in front on the DPS here and they may not be able to help at all. Which is bad since this course has a requirement that the students build their DPS app, test it and submit to the app store, but not all have Macs to use of thier own. I will also submit a question to Adobe regarding this.
Thanks for your help. I'll post the outcome.

How to move an App from one mac to DPS App builder on another mac

When I try to download the Developer app, after adding new UDIDs to the provisioning certificate, I get an error stating the app was built on a different machine. Everything works great when completed from the original Mac that I did the build on. (this was created on a "freelance design" machine and now needs to move to the company machine. I have tried to delete the app and start over, howeve the "Delete" option is grayed out. Using the single edition app.

If you are a Creative Cloud subscriber, you would need to have InDesign Installed on the new Mac. Then you need to click on 'Create App' from Folio Builder Panel in InDesign on the new Mac. That will launch DPS App Builder and embedd the folio in your App. So bottomline is that you need to do this process on the new Mac.
If you however purchased DPS Single Edition ($395) you may export the Folio from Folio Producer and then import the folio in DPS App Builder and continue buliding the App.
I can delete the app for you, send me your DPS App Builder id and App name via Private Message.

What does it take to make and sell single apps witth DPS

Allow me one question, please
If I have one cloud membership suscription and one Windows 7 PC, and I buy one Mini Mac
Would I be able/entitled to...? :
1. Load the CS6 suite in both machines and run them legally (but not concurrently?)?
2. Make the whole design-publication to iPad road up to the app. Store?
3. Sell single apps. to external clients as a freelancer? (No magazines but more things like "one issue" apps.)
Just wondering to myself.
Thanks a lot

With Creative Cloud membership, you can install the desktop applications available in Creative Cloud on your primary computer and one backup computer, as long as they are not running at the same time. You will have access to both the Mac OS and Windows versions, so if you have a Mac at home and a PC at work, for instance. After creating your content, create folio and upload articles and just click on create app from Folio builder. Then submit it for approval to app store.
That's correct it would be Single/one issue app.

File Size Shown in Folio Producer

Hi,
Is there currently a way to see the entire download file size of an app in Folio Producer? If not, this would be a helpful feature in another version of DPS, especially with the increased folio sizes with the new iPad.

I would suspect you moved the .mov file, but at some point in processing and saving things you have failed to note that the .mov file should be saved as a "self contained" movie, so that the actual movie content is left somewhere on your hard-drive. The .mov file will play on the computer, because it is pointing to the location of the content, which is accessed and used, but when you move (or try to) the .mov file, the content is left behind on the hard drive, and only the container is moved. Thus there is nothing TO play in the new location, there is just the container with no content.

Content not loading in Dev app.

Hello,
I'm producing our companies first DPS publication, this is the first time I've built an app in DPS, so apologies if I'm missing something obvious.
Here's the problem, everything is working fine in Adobe Content Viewer (both the emulator and app version) and the .ipa file loads fine onto our devices, but then won't load any content beyond the splash page, we just get this:
I've looked around the forum but can't find any mention of this. I'm assuming it's an issue in the DPS App builder/Folio Producer, but would really appreciate anyone pointing me in the right direction.
Thanks!

They're intended to be free, and ah, no, I didn't have the option. After a bit of digging around I've agreed to a couple of contracts and set up the shared secret. Thanks, fingers crossed.
And separate folios have been produced for all the apple platforms, so shouldn't be that.
Hoping trying again with the shared secret added might fix the issue..?

Customize "Please update your app from the App Store" message

Please add the possibility to customize/change this message for the branded adobe viewer to include direct link to the app:
"Please update your app
This issue is available for download,
but requires a newer version of the
app. Please update your app from
the App Store."
Thank you,
Gennady!

Himanshu,
This just happened to me today with the Adobe Content Viewer and a v22 published app. I updated a folio which was created a while back that was set to "Unspecified" for Viewer Version. It was created originally with pre v20 tools. In both the ACV and a published app this folio showed that "Please update your app..." message when trying to download/view the updated version of the folio. When I got the first update message I was viewing the folio, then I affirmed that I wanted to download the update so it took me to the library view. After trying to initiate the download/update it shows the "please update" error message. I tapped "OK" and then it let me download and view the updated folio. Basically it's showing an error message that doesn't apply. We know it isn't a v23 folio trying to be viewed by a v22 app because my folio version is not even v20, and also because it still lets me download/view the update after it gives the warning. When I've made the mistake of trying to view a newer folio with an older viewer in the past it doesn't let me download/view the new folio, it just gives the error message. Every time I've observed this false error message I've been viewing a folio when I got the initial alert that an updated folio is available. This may or may not be significant/relevant.
