Folios will not appear on iPad, or iPhone

Hi there, this has me baffled.

 

I'am trying to update an existing indesign 5.5 document to DPS folio builder the same way as normal, but when I go to view the app on the ipad and iphone it has dissappeared and all that is left is the Adobe Content Viewer document in the libary. Strangely on the Android tablet it shows the whole libary and works fine.

 

after de-installing the app from a couple of ipads and iphone and then re-installed the app still the same problem. Is this just a bug with the app

 

any help would be great

 

cheers

Stuart

    Make sure you download and install the new version of Adobe Content Viewer from the store, we posted it on Tuesday with a fix for this issue. If you are using a viewer you build on your own, make sure to update Viewer Builder and then re-build your viewer.

    If all is there on Android, it seems to point to a Viewer problem.

    As Neil said, see if you can build your own Content Viewer from Viewer Builder (make sure the version displayed at the top  is 2.2.2.36.57686).

    I have the same problem. I can see all my folios on an iPad3 with iOS6 beta. Works perfectly. On other iPads with the latest official iOS5 and the newest Content Viewer it does not show me all my Folios in th list. This happens on all iOS5 devices (iPad1 and iPad2).

     

    I've created the folio with CS6 newset update and several viewer version in the folio settings.

     

    No change. Does anyone have an idea?

    Add me to this list. I have tried creating new folios in all different available viewer versions, but I cannot view any of them in the viewer app.

    Have you tried to preview the folio using the desktop viewer? When you do that, you'll be notified of certain problems with the folio, such as single-orientation articles in a dual-orientation folio.

    I cannot use the desktop viewer, because it is not capable of SVG in HTML which we use on every page. The desktop viewer is really not the best product.

     

    Also it works on iOS6 beta without any problem.

    I saw this issue around 8:30 am Pacific time on both my iPhone 4 and iPad 3 (both running the latest iOS 5). Both were installed through iTunes.

     

    The specific issue is that folios that are not published (i.e. they have the blue slash w/ lightning bolt) aren't appearing in the Library.

     

    I was getting ready to capture some details on the network calls and launched both viewers and now I'm seeing them. Very strange.

     

    If you switch to a different app and back again does the problem resolve itself? If not, perhaps quitting the app completely and launching fixes it.

     

    We still need to understand why the folios were excluded, there's some network communication error going on.

    We found the mistake:

    Because the 1024 x 768 resolution look really crappy on the iPad 3, we only created the iPad 3 resolution and this is why it was not showing on the older iPads. It had nothing to do with the iOS6 beta.

     

    We thought the older iPads could open the high resolution folios as well, but obviously you have to create a second folio.

     

    I hope this help other people having problems with this issue.
