Open a Android DPS app from a Safari link

Hello:
Is it possible to open an Android DPS app from a Safari webpage using a hyperlink (href) ? In iOS I've found a solution but I'm not sure how to implement it on Android
Saludos,

If it can be done with native code (iOS and android) then you could also write a native extension to launch an app.  However, because mobile apps are installed in individual sandboxes apps probably have no way of telling the parent OS to list current apps or run a paticular app.  This is just my opionion from what I have understood so far. I think you can create some sort of native extension and use the following methods below.
Have a look here:

As for iOS you would need to use App urls which would be application specific.

  • Download issues with Android DPS App

    Hi All,
    Just wondering if any of you are trying to download a folio from the android dps app and cannot change navigation pages. The folio is downloading but it looks like it freezes until the folio is completed downloading.
    In iOS, you can download a folio and click on other navigation page.
    Is this a fix for adobe or am i doing something wrong?
    Thanks

    You must be using the legacy Android app which does not support progressive download. You should try using our new native Android application, which does.
    Here's Bob's help topic on building native Android apps: https://helpx.adobe.com/digital-publishing-suite/help/building-android-apps.html
    Here's a list of what's supported in the different apps. Note that not all overlays are supported yet in the native Android viewer (audio is still being developed): Digital Publishing Suite Help | DPS supported feature list

  • Wrong URL from Fullfilment Center opens Browser in DPS App

    Situation: While uploading Library an empty browser window opens when you return to application.
    Could it be possible that a wrong/invalid/empty URL was sent back from the Fullfilment Center, that forces the app to open the Browser,
    because the URL does not submit the neccessary order or information?
    Appversion: v24
    Apptype: Newsstand App with Subscription + Entitlement
    Status: already available in Store and approved
    Error: opens browser-window with no content ( you can't open the link in safari, pushing the arrow has no effect),
    clicking done closes browser again, and it works normally. But this browser window should not open
    Error appears when: Updating library when coming back to Application from another, or application has been inactive for a short period
    Error does not appear when: you don't leave the app, no matter how often library uploads itself
    Possible explanation: Fullfilment Center sent URL is invalid/wrong/empty or forces App to open that URL instead of opening it in the background
    Who can help me with that?

  • Android DPS app not linking to PDF

    Hi - we have a working app in iOS that we are now converting for Android. We link to two PDFs using HTMLResources. Works fine in iOS, not on Android. Is this a known bug / issue or is there a workaround anyone knows about? Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    There are definitely some known behavioral differences between Android and iOS in these situations. Can you describe the behavior you're seeing so that I might provide some guidance?
    Thanks,

  • Why can't I open any of my app from the app store?

    I can't open none of my apps

    Did you already try to reset the iPad by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting, but it can clear some glitches.
    If this does not work, set it up as new device again:

  • I cannot open or save pdf's from a https link

    Hi, I'm hoping that someone can point me in the right direction. I have Acrobat reader 9 and IE8, and ever since one of these was updated (not sure which one) I have been unable to open or save https pdf's. Every now and then it works, but more often than not nothing happens. It always works if I copy the shortcut to a new page and change https to http, but I download lots of these and this is not a suitable work-around. The download screen sits on 0% downloading and nothing happens. Thanks in anticipation!

    Thanks for the suggestion, but perhaps I should have been more specific. I use a specific website that allows me to run reports which are then created as pdf files. The company that owns the website has no problems with saving and opening the pdf files, and I really do not want to resort to another app when I know it should be possible. What I have now done in IE8 is to display all websites in compatibility vew (not sure if that helps, seeing as the website I use is compatible with IE8), added the website to my trusted sites zone, and ticked "require server verification (https) for all sites in this zone".  This has sorted out 90% of the problem - I still get pdf files that I have to open via copy shortcut, but not so many. It would be great if I could sort out the last 10% though.

    Hi Salvatore,
    This is a very wide error. You did not provided any other info as specified by Michael. Just a wild guess, this sort of error occurs generally when classpath or java_home properties are not set correctly. But, as i said it is very wide, some more info will be useful.

  • Can I install select cs6 design premium apps from the download link?

    Hello,
    I'm still using cs6, and want to know if I can install only photoshop and illustrator to start with from this link:
    Download CS6 products
    Thanks,
    Wendy

    Hi Wendy,
    You have to download the whole package for Adobe Design Premium CS6 and then while installing you can choose which applications you want to install. The Serial number will only work with the installer of the Adobe Design Premium CS6.

  • Openening pdf in iBooks from within Safari

    After installing IOS5, I am not able anymore to open a pdf-file, which I opened in the Safari webbrowser,
    in IBooks.
    In IOS4 I used this a lot, but this does not seem to work anymore!
    Anybody having the same trouble?
    And even better: anybody having a solution to this?

    I have found and tested 2 workarounds for this problem:
    1)
    Send the pdf as an attachment to an email to yourself.
    From within the email app on the iPad2 you can then point to this pdf in the received email,
    and open it within iBooks ! (as should have also possible from within Safari ... )
    2)
    Another, even better workaround:
    - install Opera Mini webbrowser on the iPad
    - copy URL of the pdf to URL-field of Opera Mini webbrowser
      (for example: arxiv.org/pdf/1110.2260v1)
      and click "GO"
    - this loads the requested pdf IN THE SAFARI WEBBROWSER (!!),
      but with a different URL,
      in this example with the URL
      http://global-4-lvs-turing.opera-mini.net/hz47-01/24015/0/-1/arxiv.org/1110.pdf
    - Now you open the pdf in iBooks from within Safari as usual !!
    Hope this helps, although I would like a better solution,
    such that the original functionality of openening documents in iBooks from within Safari is restored !
    Jan Bours
    - installeer Opera Mini (webbrowser)
    - kopieer de URL van de pdf in URL veld van Opera Mini en laad de pdf
      (bv arxiv.org/pdf/1110.2260v1)
    - toets op "Go", dan wordt de pdf geladen IN DE SAFARI BROWSER !!!!!
       Maar dan wel met een andere URL, in dit voorbeeld met URL
       http://global-4-lvs-turing.opera-mini.net/hz47-01/24015/0/-1/arxiv.org/1110.pdf
    - aantikken van het scherm geeft rechtboven in scherm zoals altijd
       de mogelijkheden "Open in iBooks", of "Open Met ...",
       die allebei inderdaad de pdf in iBooks kunnen openen !!!!!

  • Installing apps from dmg file package content windows doesn't gain focus

    When I download a dmg file and double click to mount, after it mounts, the window containing the package contents never gains focus and stays hidden behind the rest of the windows that are open and I have to use Expose to find it. Is this an error or setting I've missed? On my friend's iMac it works fine but not on my MacBook Pro and we both have Snow Leopard.
    Thanks

    Ok the first option didn't have any effect. When I opened the dmg from Chrome it loaded the window in the background.
    Dragging the dmg onto the DiskMounter app worked. The window opened allowing me to drag the App to the Applications folder and was in focus.
    I have a similar issue when I open an archive(zip) file from chrome/safari/firefox it shows the progress of the unarchiving bu then the finder window that would normally come to focus displaying the unarchived folder is hidden behind my other open windows.

  • Open BI Publisher Report From Standard Report Link

    I am having problems opening a bi publisher report from a colomn link in a standard report.

    Hi Demo,
    Yes, I have not made myself clear, I apologise.
    I have tried downloading apps from itunes in order to set up a game for my son, when I go to click on a link, be this in itunes, or on the web, Safari revolts back informing the address is invalid. I read by coping a link and pasting into the URL, this would do it, but not so.
    My goal then, is to install Minecraft for my son, I would then download an app to allow this but I am unable to get this far due to Safari insulting the address I ask it to go to
    The iPad is first generation
    OS 5.1.1 Software up to date.
    Thank you in advance for your time

  • PDF does not "Open in iBooks" or "Open with" any apps from Safari.

    Hi,
    After update to iOS 5, I noticed that PDFs in Safari does not "Open in iBooks" or "Open with" any other apps. The option is available, however, nothing happens when I click on it. Has anyone else experienced such an issue?
    Thanks,
    Bibin

    I have exactly the same issue.
    Here is something even more bizarre.
    If I go in Safari to
    arxiv.org/abs/1012.4362
    and click on the link to the pdf it displays it in Safari fine, but wont open it in GoodReader (it will upload it to dropbox but then isnt viewable in there).
    However, if I go to the same link in Opera, click on the pdf then, as usual, it opens the pdf in Safari. But now the pdf *can* be uploaded to GoodReader from Safari!
