Newsstand App with monthly issue and Single Edition

We have an multi-issue app with iTunes subscriptions (retail) in the Newsstand. We are currently publishing monthly editions inside our app.
Recently we also published a retail Special Issue using this multi-issue subscription app so that current subscribers would see this new Special Issue inside the viewer. This we like.
We would now like to publish this same Special Issue as a single-edition app so that new and future users would "see" this inside the App Store.
Can users download these two identical apps, meaning can they purchase this twice? Is there a way to prevent this "double purchase" thru DPS or App Builder or thru iTunes Connect?
Tom

As I understand it, each app is wholly independent with respect to entitlement. That is, you can't use a purchase in one app to determine entitlement inside another. Even so, you're talking about two different kinds of iTunes purchase: in-app versus app.

  • Building ios Newsstand App with AS3 for iPad?

    Hi,
    How do I build an IOS newsstand App with AS3 for iPad? I will not need any updates for this app. It will be just a pdf magazine inside, same contents forever.
    I cant find any tutorials/introduction on how to build this.
    I get the idea on how to create normal ios App, but creating Newsstand App really confussed me.
    Hope I can get a good start here
    Help is appreciated!

    Sorry I've been busy.
    Have a look at this newsstand app tutorial that's in 2 parts. This is for native iOS however the packaging is the most important.

    The in-app subscription is something you're going to have to tackle. Are you selling this magazine on a subscription basis? If you are selling it, things can get tricky or possible. I'm not fluent on the latest in-app purchase integration or if there is any planned integration. A look on the ANE download page (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/native-extensions-for-air.html) doesn't show any ANE support for it. You could google around for an ANE that supports in-app subscriptions of course.
    Hope that helps.
    Please be sure to read the entire 2 articles listed above. I realize they do not strictly have to do with Adobe but they do outline the process of getting an app on newsstand and it's just up to us as developers to translate tutorials like that into our world.

    Recently I have not been able to purchase songs from my iTunes on my phone, but can purchase apps with no issue.  Has anyone else experienced this issue?

    If this is an Alienware system, the most likely culprit is the Bigfoot Networks LSP as per the following document:
    Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
    Head to the Downloads and Drivers page at Dell for your particular model of Alienware. Look for available updates for your BigFoot networking device. If you update those drivers, does that give you back your Store access?

  • Creating app for Android/Kindle with App builder and Single Edition (No professional or Enterprise)

    Hi there,
    I know there is no official support for Android in Single Edition, but, once you have installed Indesing CC and App Builder in a mac, and you create app from your Folio menu, is it possible to create then an Android/Kindle apk app for publishing by your own?
    Has anybody published sucessfully in this way?
    Other point, is that I suposse that you need a Professional or Enterprise licence to create an android app from the Web-enablet App Builder. Cause I can't find the way the make my single account to join the role to this function (And app builder website website just tells me I have to do this, as if I were able to do it with my license...).
    By the way, I think Adobe should explain more clearly this points. There is too much documentation, but difficult to find this answers... And a lot of people with the same troubles...
    Thanks!

    Thanks Tomek!
    So, can you confirm if you join the Professional edition (just for a month) if you are able to use both options App Builder/Web-Based App Builder, to create the app in a way that you don't need to be suscribed more time to Professional Edition to be downloaded by the users in Google Play/Kindle Store, and it should work for Applestore (iphone apps) too. I mean, once again, no using Multi-issue and Renditions, cause in this case I know they are hosted by Adobe and you need the subscription to be downloaded.
    I think there are discussions here about this topic, but it's not exactly clear what I'm asking. So, I still don't know if I should buy the Professional Edition or go to another supplier as you said.
    I hope that Adobe improve these functions! There should be native support for these platforms, cause at the end you only can publish to the applestore with the Single Edition and everbody knows the "too booky problem" with the apps. And we should have support to publish to ibookstore because of that too, without third party solutions. 

  • Edit or Rebuild App with new APNs and MPFs?

    I tried to send a push notification for one of my apps, and it failed. After noticing that my APNs were expired, I rebuilt the APNs and MPFs. Do I now need to rebuild the app with those new components, or can I simply go in and edit in app builder? If I can just edit, will I still need to generate the binary and upload that new version to Apple? And will users also need to update their app in order to recieve push notifications?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    Just rebuild the app in app builder with the updated push certificates. You should then be able to send push notifications. You shouldn't need to resubmit the app.

  • Proffesional and single edition

    We have a DPS pro, and are a publishing company. I wonder if I can publish content in single edition for different authors (a story, an interactive comic). Obviously with the transfer of the necessary rights.

    Hi, I don't undertand your question but I will try to answer you.
    You can publish single edition for each different authors but in this case you will have an app for each author.
    With professional edition you can create one app whit inside single issue for each author.
    Give me more information about that.

  • I want to create an iPad app with multiple issues of the same magazine inside it

    I want to create a digital magazine for iPad. I know with Digital Publishing Suite I can create apps for iPad.
    But there is a problem. Is not clear in the website if with the Single Edition I can create an app that contains all issues of the magazine, or if I have to create a new app for each issue of the magazine that I want to publish.
    Could you please get me out of doubt?
    Please, I need a quick answer. Thanks in advance!

  • App Builder doesn't advance - single edition user

    I have followed directions identified in the following chain with Neil Enns - Adobe but have not be able to be successful in advancing in DPS app builder.
    Re: Can't advance in DPS App Builder
    I've completed building my folio and have chosen 'Create App' from the Folio Builder. When DPS App Builder opens, there's nothing listed under app type/name, despite being signed into DPS app builder with the appropriate Adobe ID. When I select 'New', then 'iPad,' it brings me to a form which I then complete, but DPS App Builder won't go any further when I choose 'next'. I'm a single edition user anxiously trying to submit the app before the may 1st expiration deadline.
    I've been chatting with Adobe support, Case # 0186577346, but have not yet had any luck in determining how to fix.
    As referenced in Re: Can't advance in DPS App Builder, I launched App Builder from the Folio Builder Panel. I've also closed the Folio Builder panel once DPS app Builder is open, I've restarted my machine, and uninstalled/reinstall DPS app builder.
    Stuck screen:

    PROBLEM RRESOLVED
    I uninstalled, restarted, and installed as forums indicated. What I found is that DPS App Builder had a default startup window that was showing, so when Adobe InDesign CS6 and told to 'create app,' it was sending data to DPS App Builder, but its default window was negating the data sharing. DPS App Builder didn't have any folio to work from. When I opened DPS App Builder and selected the check box 'do not show at startup,' closed the app, and then told InDesign to 'create app,' again, it was successful. I was able to create icons and splash screens and connect the certificates and move forward from there.
    Neil Enns - Adobe - this may be an important bug to note in DPS app builder.

    Tom

    I'm not quite following. I have the app created and ready in iTunes Connect--it is a "multi-folio with iTunes subscription" and is enabled for Newsstand. The free subscription product ID in App Builder matches the Apple ID in iTunes Connect.
    We wish to launch the app with an older issue (folio) and we'll publish the current issue in the coming days. All of the issues that will be available in this app will be free. And we would obviously like the users to be notified when a new issue is available.
    Do I not need an in-app purchase for this older issue--the one that will be available immediately? As I have it now, in iTunes Connect, I click on the "manage in-app purchases" and I have this first, older issue that is ready to submit. And in the "manage newsstand" section I don't have any issues.
    Is this correct?
