Simulator build needed for Single-edition DPS App

Hi everyone!
We're trying to embed our App into our site with one of those sites that offers that kind of service, but they're asking for a simulator build and won't accept .ipa files or even the distribution .zip for the App store. They do offer a plugin for Xcode that helps you take it over staright from there. Problem is, nothing except the transfer was done from within Xcode, so there's nothing there, obviously.
So, the question is, how do we get a "simulator build?" Presumably, that's what you create in Xcode for iOS simulator..? Is there a smart way of getting this from any of the builds I'll have after creating the App with DPS?
I've asked the company in question for support, but they seem a little busy setting up new offices and getting funding to answer the question or even provide some sort of troubleshooting page on their site. SUPER HELPFUL.
I've searched the DPS forum for something similar, but not found anything. If someone does have a thread link for this type of problme, please do post that, of course. Otherwise, any proverbial sharing of greymatter would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks!

Can't update Single Edition DPS app

Hi,
I have created an app following this process:
Created inDesign file. Added folio overlays.
Added open document as Article in new Folio.
From folio builder panel, clicked on Create App which then opened the DPS App Builder.
Created the App in the DPS App Builder.
Activated the app with a Single Use License.
Now I need to update the app. I don't have the option to update the folio in the DPS App Builder. So I found this http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ppcompdoc/Step_by_step_guide_to_dps_se.pdf which says that I can create a new app and delete the other one, but:
I can't delete the active app
I can't activate a new app because the license is in use
How can I update the app using the Single Use License that we purchased?
Thanks
Rafael

You can use the serial number only once. If you need to update your app, contact Adobe technical support and ask them to reset the serial number.
By the way, if you have a subscription to Adobe Creative Cloud, you can use that account ID to update or build an unlimited number of single edition apps for the iPad. A Creative Cloud license is easier to use, more versatile, and more cost effective than purchasing a single license.

Single Edition DPS Apps Crashing in iOS 8?

Hi Guys,
I've just been told by some readers that as soon as they have updated to iOS 8, past apps I have released - single editions, not multi-folio for iPad - just crash. They either open and crash as soon as you scroll, or crash straight away.
What is going on? Is this an update that needs to happen on Adobe's end and has yet to occur?
Cheers
Chris

Hi Neil,
I think I am having the same problem as the OP. This is the error I got:
----- 2.2 -----
We found that your app exhibited one or more bugs, when reviewed on iPad running iOS 8, on both Wi-Fi and cellular networks, which is not in compliance with the App Store Review Guidelines.
Content does not load. This occurs upon launch.
If I just recreate the app with the "create app" in the folio builder will this correct the problem? Would I need to also change the provisioning profiles or anything or just a straight rebuild will fix this? Are their any updates I need to download first before I rebuild?
If it makes any different it's a single edition app. I know being a CC member would be better. The owner of the app refused to go that route. Dumb, I know.
Any help is appreciated.

Technical support for single edition DPS

Hi
I'm hoping somebody can help me. I'm trying to find the answer as to why I keep getting the 'folio missing error' when I try to create my app.
I've already submitted it to apple and it's been approved and appears in the app store. However, I have made a couple of text amends and now can't seem to test the new version or download the distribution zip files to re-submit to apple.
I'm quite up against it in terms of client deadline and I was wondering if somebody can maybe try and help... or is there a technical support number I can call to speak to somebody and hopefully resolve my problem?
I've tried the number on the website but I'm uk based and the number appears to be invalid every time I attempt to call.
A few things that may help:
• I'm on the same computer as the original app was built and submitted, however the indesign files (although in exactly the same location) are saved on our server. Could this cause a problem?
• I have used a single edition serial number, so the delete button is greyed out in the DPS app builder app
• All articles are updated and I have tried launching DPS app builder both independently and from the workflow menu in Indesign but keep getting same error message.
I'd be really grateful if somebody could shed some light on the problem. I'm assuming this is a pretty common problem unless I'm doing something wrong / missing something really obvious??
Looking forward to hopefully getting a reply soon.
Many thanks,
Pete

What cloud solution includes single edition DPS publishing?

hi,
when you subscribe to Cloud there is an option to choose "SINGLE APP" (instead of the whole cloud which gives access to included all adobe software).
So, if you choose "single app" and INDESIGN as that application, will you be able to publish single edition DPS apps as much as you want???
thanks for clarifying.
best regards, janne

No. You must get a full Creative Cloud subscription to publish Single Edition apps.

Multiple languages in Single Edition DPS

Hi,
We have just finished a single-folio application for a client in English and are about to publish it to the App Store. But our client has requested that we add 5 languages for the second version of the application, to be published in a month or two.
We've tried looking around for the best way to do this using Single Edition DPS but have not been able to find any documentation about how to do it. We know it's possible to do it using multi-folio applications, but our client doesn't want to publish a multi-folio app.
Has anybody here tried publishing a multi-language app using Single Edition? Any tips or links to documentation about it?
Thank you in advance for any help on this!
Diana

This is not possible with DPS Single Edition, you will have to either create separate apps for each language or you will have to include all languages in one app however that will make your app very large and also will create confusion in navigating. The best option for you would be to create separate apps for each language and publish them regionally.

Can you self-distribute a single edition folio app?

Currently I am using the Adobe Content viewer to distribute folio's for a couple of clients. One client would like single edition folio apps created, but doesn't like the idea of them being in iTunes. Is it possible to self-distribute (publish) a single edition folio app outside of iTunes? Much the same way you can already create any type of iPad app and create an installable package without having to go through iTunes...
Thanks for any assistance,
Greg B

The only way to do so is to create a developer version of the app but it
will expire and will be limited to 100 UDIDs.
In short, this isn't going to happen without enterprise level accounts
with Apple and Adobe and is still subject to licensing restrictions set
forth by Apple for app distribution.

Buy License for single edition....newbie question

Hi, very new to this forum and DPS. I tried to click the "Buy licence for single edition" link on the left of the page, but was not provided with any cost information - only an adobe product notification page. I am a Adober CS5.5 Design Premium subscriber. Keen to know costings before I learn how to do all this. Cheers

it depends on the adobe store website and may be a legal issue too, because
you don't buy software but a licence here (in fact, sth. like a serial
number)

My iPod is up to a 4.1 ios, and it won't update to a 5.1 which I need for some of my apps for school. It keeps saying that my internet connection is bad; but, it works just fine. What do I need to do?

If you get a network timeout error, then disabling the computer's security software duirng the download and update usually resovles that error.
If that is not the error what is the wording of the error message.
Note that only a 3G or 4G iPod can go to iOS 5. A 2G iPod can only go to iOS 4.2.1

No Response when submitting build for single-edition custom viewer app

I want to build a custom viewer app for a single-edition folio for the iPad using the Viewer Builder. I go through all the steps described by the help articles and videos, such as generating and downloading mobileprovision files and creating asset files. However, at the final step, where the viewer builder displays the text: 'Once you hit the Submit Build' button, your build will be queued. Click 'Finish' to return to your list of publications. I click 'Submit Build', and I get the progress bar which says 'Submitting to the build queue: This popup will disapper once complete'. Once the popup disappears, I click, 'Finish', and I am returned to the Manage screen. I can see a list item for each time I attempted to submit a build, but the Builds and Build Details Columns are blank, showing no builds. However, there is a link in the App Status Column to 'Activate' by entering a serial number. Is it necessary for me to enter my serial number before I can see the results of my build, or is there something wrong with the build process?

Yes, and you need to PAY for that serial number. Single Edition apps are $395 each.

How many apps can you build with ADP Single Edition?

DPS Single Edition means that you can only create ONE app through the App Builder?
If you need to create 2 or 3 what are your options? Creative Cloud, Prodfesional Edition?
Creative Cloud suscribers need to buy the DPS anyway?

With Creative Cloud you can create as many Single Edition apps as you want.

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.

Single Edition Native App for Android

Is it possible to create a native app for android (google play store) with DPS single edition? Or is there another way to achieve it?

Hi,
The app will stay available but the content will disappear as you quit subscription after first month and the content is hosted on the Adobe Servers. You have also download fees in addition.
No chance to bypass it.
If I remember well, Aquafadas are the only ones who are having a single payment option for an Android single issue. But they are changing their marketing strategies frequently, so I'm not sure if it's still available.

Single Edition DPS adding articles, FEES?

If I publish a folio with my single edition through the cloud that has 5 articles, can I add 4 more articles to that same folio at a later date? And then add 2 more articles at another date? And if I can, do I just delete that folio and upload the new one? What would the workflow be to do this? and MOST IMPORTANT, what if any fees/costs are involved in doing this.
Would love an answer to this. Thanks everyone

You cannot add articles once your app is approved by Apple but yes can add articles even after publishing folio.There is no need to delete folio and can use same folio.
The workflow of DPS Single edition is different from other editions thus there is difference in publishing process. You can only publish as private and then you will have to export the Zip file from Folio producer which you already did as you wrote. Now that same zip has to be imported in Viewer Builder while building your custom viewer.
You need first use your Serial key to activate the build, then you can download the developer.ipa to test it on your iPad, remember that your Mobile provisioning file should have your iPad’s UDID added to make it work on your iPad. You can only use the serial key one, you would not be able to reset or make changes after you have used the key, thus for basic testing, use Adobe content viewer and use the serial key only on finalized content.
With Single Edition, you do not pay download fees. Download fees apply only to multi-issue apps created by Pro and Enterprise customers. Since the content is embedded inside the App, and Adobe does not host your folio or content. DPS Single Edition is 395$. That all you need to pay. You can also purchase CCM subscription in which you can build unlimited single issue apps.

Creating single edition CC app by use of WoodWing

Hi,
We are using WoodWing to create our folio's.
We want to publish a folio to a single edition app, using a creative cloud license.
How can we import the folio into the DPS builder app?
Thanks!

That is the only process for creating a Single Edition app with Creative
Cloud. If you have a pro or enterprise account you can export the folio to
zip and created the single edition app that way, I believe.
