Passwort-Limitation in InDesign Folio Builder

Hi,
I have created a DPS user that has a 13 Digit password (was is allowed to create when setting up the account). I have already created a Viewer-App and submittet it to the iTunes store that uses that account. The Viewer-App is already in Review and will also show and sell first folios within the next hours.
The Problem is: if I want to login with that user via CS6 Folio Builder, I am limited to 6-12 chars by the desktop software.
What I did:
- changed the password
- did all InDesign work
- changed it back to make the app work
=> success!
But for further actions, how can i overcome this in a reasonable way?
NO-Options:
- change the App with new password and wait another 7 days to get a review
Bad-Options i already figured out:
- Create Folios online using the correct user, others via InDesign and then Crosslink Articles into the folios
- wait the App to be Ready and selling, send a new app with new password, change password short before review and approval, as soon as approved works, meanwhile: no downloads
Well, let's say it this way: why the hell is InDesign Folio Builder limiting me? Is there a workaround on that level?
cheers

To complete this thread for all maybe experiencing a similar problem:
I am not sure if we are talking about the same thing. If I create the Viewer-App using DPS Viewer Builder, already on the first screen I am asked to enter
- a Titel-ID and a Password. The Help says: This password is used to login when folios for this app are published (I do not know the exact enhlish text as I have a german version)
For me, this seems very much as the Viewer App when DOWNLOADING folios signs into the Folio Distribution server @Adobe and gets the content.
My evidence:
- Viewer App showed In-App purchases, I could purchase
- but when starting the download, it was hanging forever. After changing the passwort, I could download the purchase
If course, already downloaded content stays available.
My biggest problem is the itunes Review timespan. I dare not to change anything in the app because that might reschedule another 7 days waiting. Just for "trying out" experiments, that is a hard decision to take.
So, i thought i can solve the problem like this:
- keep the (logical) Folio/App Account (with 13 digits) that owns the folio as it is and use another creative account (personal) to edit the folio.
- after giving access to tha personal account, that person can see the folios in InDesign Folio Builder
- BUT: even it is the SAME COMPUTER the Folio Builder says, that there is no InDesign Files for the folio. HELL!
I think is this was bootstrapped the wrong way, it is hard to navigate out again. Here's what we did:
- created a technical account, lets say "magazine@....."
- used that account to creare the Folio and Inesign files, did all editing with it
Because of the password problem, the idea is now, to use john@..... as the creative designer. How can John get access to the folios for editing (SAME COMPUTER)
Nevertheless: Adobe, please remove the 12 digits limitation in Folio Builder Login Screen if there is no hard need for it
cheers

  • InDesign Folio Builder Passwort Limitation

    Hi,
    please do NOT move this to the DPS Threads as it is a InDesign Software Question/Problem.  (only move it, if the programming folk doing the Folio Producer thing lives at DPS)
    I have already started a thread in DPS Forums how to overcome the problem with DPS.  http://forums.adobe.com/message/4854578#4854578
    This is a InDesign Software Question/Issue
    InDesign CS6 Windows (sorry) Version does limit my DPS Password to 6-12 digits.
    InDesign/Folio Builder Version: current, all updates applied
    Unfortunately, I use a 13 digits password (Let me say this: on one hand i am forced to make my passwords longer and more complex all over the web and on the other hand sofwtare programmers limit the number of digits i can enter).
    The DPS server, in detail Adobe-IDs, perfectly allow to be > 12 digits.
    - Is there any way to overcome this limitation?
    I also post this with my heart full of hope that InDesign Folio Producer AddIn programming folk sees this or get informed about this issue and might loosen the limitation in the next patch and provide this tomorrow morning to me
    cheers
    p.s. changing the password does not solve my problem, it is more complex....i need to use that 13 digits pw on folio producer

    Digital Publishing Suite is produced by an entirely different software team than InDesign. I don't believe that the dialog you're showing us (which I can't read because I don't speak German) has anything to do with InDesign.
    And, even if it did, this forum is not a way to make a feature request. No product managers come here. This is a forum for users. I'd suggest the Adobe Feature Request form would be the best way to reach them.

  • Endless Log-In Error : InDesign Folio Builder Panel

    I updated my folio tools/panels to 1.1.9.0 and then accidentally entered in the wrong username and password in the InDesign Folio Builder Panel when I went to log back in. (The user name and password were from an DPS Professional Edition account which we suspended with Adobe to prevent billing while testing.)
    The inDesign panel just endlessly cycles now. Wont give me the option to re-enter correct information. I've closed/re-opened the panel, deleted / reinstalled the panel & tools, and I've deleted my inDesign preferences, but every time upon application launch the folio builder panel just cycles as seen below. I'm stuck. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Try signing out of the CS Live widget in the upper right corner of InDesign, close the Folio Builder panel, and try again.

  • InDesign Folio Builder Sign-In Failure.

    I was wondering if anyone else had a similar issue when trying to log in to their DPS account from the Folio Builder tab within InDesign. I have downloaded and installed the latest versions of updates for the Folio Builder and Producer and am running CS5.5 on a Windows XP PC.
    Please, if anyone has any ideas. I already have an account with the DPS system and can login just fine through my browser.
    Thank you.

    Hi Bob,
    My ID is working on Adobe portal.
    my problem date since that upload. I download and install Folio Producer Tools.dmg + Folio_Panel.dmg at least 10 times but my panels do not work. I completely reinstall Indesign but still nothing.
    My Folios do not appear in the panel. I can not connect to CS Live.

  • FLA to HTML5 invalid asset in InDesign Folio Builder?

    Hi,
    So basically im trying to create a magazine getting ready to publish on an iPad.
    I know animations are not supported on Ipad devices/software, So I looked at Terry Whites tutorial on basically how to still add animation
    to a publication. I followed all the steps he took, though after ive placed the HTML5 file in my Indesign document and attempt to publish it, it says invalid asset in the folio builder.
    I do not know what I am doing wrong. I am using InDesign CS6.
    All the HTML is, is a image file flying in from the right. It works when I open the HTML in my browser.
    Yet doesnt work when I try to publish it in folio builder.
    Any ideas what I am doing wrong?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    My first step, I placed the image, went to Animations and picked 'fly in from the right'
    I then clicked on the image > file > export
    I then coverted the file using Wallaby, which converted successfully.
    I went back to InDesign and created a new document and made a rectangle using the Rectangle frame tool.
    Then went to Folio Overlays > Web Content > Inserted/Opened the HTML file.
    Then I went to Folio Builder and Made a new folio
    (I have been told to set the default format to PNG, I did try that and it still did not work) > Then I clicked OK.
    I then added the opened InDesign file to the folio.
    Then I clicked OK
    It seems to always "get stuck" on Writing PNG.
    Then I get this error.
    Dont know what Im doing wrong, So hopefully you may be able to tell me and help.
    Thank you!

  • InDesign Folio Builder : impossible de faire la mise à jour DPS

    Bonjour, sur InDesign CC 2014 / MAC OSX 10.9.2.
    Le panneau FOLIO BUILDER affiche "Une mise à jour logicielle est requise pour utiliser Digital Publishing Suite. Rendez-vous dans le menu Aide, puis sélectionnez Mises à jour pour obtenir le logiciel requis."
    Problème, le bouton AIDE / MISE A JOUR est grisé...donc impossible de faire la mise à jour et d'utiliser FOLIO BUILDER.

    Bonjour,
    La première chose à faire est de réinitialiser les Préférences de InDesign.

  • InDesign/ Folio Builder

    How do I add another document by scrolling to the right? In the folio builder.

    Moved to DPS.
    If the ID file is open you can use the add function otherwise you'd use the import function. Both are available from the folio builder panel with the folio selected.

  • Issues signing out of DPS Folio Builder in Indesign CS6?

    Hi - I work on about 12 magazines with DPS and am pretty consistently getting a sign out error
    seems minor but try it several times an hour, not so minor.
    Unable to actually sign out of an account and into another via the Indesign Folio Builder pallette,
    it seems to lock me into the magazine/account and no options to sign on to another. So what ends up
    happening is quitting Indesign in order to switch accounts.
    As we also use a publishing system it also means a lot of bureaucracy to get back into what
    ought to be a simple switch. Is Adobe going to address  this type of 'power user' - aside from
    the ability to have a master account for all our magazines? or at least to be signed in on
    multiple accounts? or failing that the ability to have magzines nested or in folders. I can use
    one sign on for our K4 system, could something similar be in the works for DPS?
    I heard a rumour that the whole UI is going to be revamped away from Flash on the web
    side, but what does this mean for the Indesign user, will the controls match? As a lead on
    multiple projects and multiple teams something a bit more flexible would be welcome.

    When you update InDesign CS6, do you see an option for updating the DPS Desktop Tools? You can manually update the DPS Desktop Tools here:

  • Folio Builder plug in crashed

    Hi,
    First of all, sorry for my non-fluent technical english.
    I have a big problem : I started to work on DPS last week. registered as a free user and sent and downloaded my first publication .zip. So far so good !
    But after that, i wasn't able to start a new folio on my mac as Indesign folio Builder pannel disapeared totally. Impossible to create or go back to my previous work.
    The adobe content viewer even displayed me  it was running for the first time when i asked a preview via the overlays pannel.
    I think Dps plug-in crashed but i don't know how to delete it and launch it again on my INDESIGN soft (updated version 6 on 10.8.4 os).
    Is anybody here could help me ?
    Thank you so much.
    Caro.

    I'm not signing into another Adobe account, I'm signing into another Windows account on my Windows 7 machine.  So, I don't lose any folios, etc, as I'm still using the same Adobe ID to sign in.
    I was having issues staying signed into Creative Cloud a while back as well, and I used the "create a new admin account" trick to solve my folio builder issues as well.  See the post here:  http://forums.adobe.com/message/5651099#5651099  The Adobe person provides links to creating new admin accounts for Mac and Windows users.  Follow the instructions, and try this route if uninstalling and reinstalling InDesign didnt' work.
    Also, just as a side note, I have been using the folio builder panel yesterday and today without any issues... so if you can't sign in, then it "probably" isn't a widespread issue.  I know that doesn't make you feel any better, but I'm hoping this is a localized issue that Adobe can pinpoint and provide an accurate, repeatable solution for!

  • InDesign CS6 folio builder/links question. For iPad app.

    Hi there. I am a graphic designer who is very experienced in InDesign using the software for print purposes. I am now branching out with the capacities CS6 has and am learning to design (mainly presentation) apps for the iPad. So, I've designed a portfolio as a multiple page document with both portrait and landscape page orientations. The app would consist of a starter page which would be a load of animation exported as swf, and imported back into InDesign as HTML5, or MP4, or however (I haven't nailed this yet as I'm leaving this till last as this page will serve as a screen saver until swiped). When the viewer swipes page 1 they will enter into the main 'contents' page with a load of thumbnails of clients I have and within those clients a load of case studies. So, I've roughly designed the layout and will need to build but I need to know what I'm limited by.
    Page 1 title page,
    page 2 contents (with scrollable bar with links to other pages)
    page 3 will be the 1st client and will need approx 6 case studies, which I presume I'll need to make extra pages. And so on.
    Anyhow, I digress – the question I ask is that to upload and test on the iPad through content viewer I obviously need to upload the articles as separate pages (incorporating both H & V orientations) but would I make the links from my 'contents' page when the document was a multiple page document (ie in it's original state) or would I apply these links (as buttons I presume rather than hyperlinks) when the articles have been separated and  I'm working with page 01, 02, 03 etc in folio builder?. I know how how to create buttons from thumbnails but I can't work out how to link them to their desired targets (next page/page no/ etc etc) for the record I want to present my work on an iPad as an app, without relying on WIFI or 3G. Last question (phew) Is I have a picture frame with a slideshow in - is it possible for the viewer to click these and open them in full screen mode and flick/navigate through that way? then click via a cross in the top corner back to the screen they were on. Very grateful for any replies – It's a steep learning curve from print! Steve C, London, England  

    Steve,
    we have many resources, from step-by-step tutorials to videos and more at our DPS Developer Center at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/digitalpublishingsuite.html.
    There is also a very cool (and free) app called DPS Tips with many examples on using interactive overlays in DPS: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/digital-publishing-suite-tips/id436199090?mt=8
    The iPad Publishing Companion Guide PDF is available on the DPS Dashboard (https://digitalpublishing.acrobat.com). The link to download the Companion Guide is available in the "Additional Resources" section on the Dashboard.
    I think that these resources will provide answers to most of your questions.

  • Folio Builder limited to v24??

    I am in an office using InDesign CS5.5. I've installed the lastest DPS releases including the folio builder panel, but when I go to create a new folio, the viewer version is limited to maximum v24.
    When I use my own Macs with Adobe CC installed, I can use all the latest tools, no problem. Does CS5.5 not allow you to go hihger than v24 when building a new folio?
    Thanks

    Did you install both the Folio Builder panel and the Folio Producer tools for cs5.5?
