How To Change the Authorized Adobe ID
http://www.adobe.com/go/digital-editions-createID
What do you do if your copy of Adobe Digital Editions is authorized with the wrong Adobe ID? This can happen if you’ve started using a different Adobe ID or you somehow messed up the authorization in the past.
If you’re trying to open an ebook when Adobe Digital Editions is authorized with the wrong Adobe ID, you’ll get an error message like: “License fulfilled by a different user” or something similar referencing licensing or authorization.
Important note: If you have some ebooks that do require your current authorization, those will become unreadable if you authorize with a different Adobe ID.
deauthorize
The first thing to do is deauthorize Adobe Digital Editions. This will remove your current authorization.
1. Open Adobe Digital Editions
2. On your keyboard, simultaneously press the Ctrl, Shift, and D buttons (if on Windows) or the Cmd, Shift, and D buttons (if on a Mac)
3. Click the “Deauthorize” button
After this you should close Adobe Digital Editions, and then open it again.
re-authorize
If you’ve followed the steps above, your copy of Adobe Digital Editions is no longer authorized.
Open Adobe Digital Editions
Adobe Digital Editions will behave as if you’ve just installed it, and will prompt you to enter your login information for your Adobe ID. Use the Adobe ID account information that you want to use to authorize Adobe Digital Editions.

  • Getting following error when trying to download ebooks: E-AUTH-BAD-DEVICE-KEY-OR-PKCS12

    I AM TRYING TO USE A GLOWLIGHT I JUST PURCHASED, BUT KEEP GETTING ERROR: E-AUTH-BAD-DEVICE-KEY-OR-PKCS12.  Can you tell me what I need to do to correct this problem?

    Some ebook sellers use the Adobe DRM mechanism, but rather than relying on the Adobe ID for authorization have their own Vendor ID (their own user/password).
    You could be able to read your old books but not the new one if all the old books used the Adobe ID, but the new one used a separate Vendor ID.
    Check with the ebook seller if you should be using a separate  Vendor ID.
    ADE1.7.2 does not support different vendor IDs.  V2.0 does, but I am not sure exactly how to get it to do so.
    The user guide says ' The best way to do this is to supply an Adobe ID or Vendor ID, associating the book with your ID.',
    but doesn't say how to do this.

  • Error getting license e auth bad device key or pkcs12

    Hi,
    I've been getting the above error when trying to download an ebook.
    Some forums suggest erasing authorization and then uninstalling, reinstalling and reauthorizing dgital editions.
    When I try erase authorization I get another error to say unable to erase authorization at this time, please try again after some time.
    Does anyone have any advice?
    I would appreciate any help. It was working fine last week.
    Thank you in advance, Rachel.

  • ADE 2 and now 3 won't take .acsm file.  Code E auth bad device key

    Did reauthorization per threads on this site. get msg code E auth bad device key. used to work fine for past year. Installed V3. Same result.  What gives???
    This seems like a pretty big failure for Adobe. There ought to be a post  from Adobe explaining exactly what to do without going thru all this trouble. 

    I'm going to take a guess here, based on the process you said you went
    through.  Here's hoping it's helpful.
    I suspect that the copy of ADE you downloaded is not going to let you
    register it with Adobe.  This happens sometimes when the various
    ebooksellers try to give you a link to a download address, and the software
    you download isn't 'legit' for one reason or another.  Ebooksellers and
    others who want to put a link out there should be going to Adobe to get the
    right link.  Some don't.
    Next up, Digital Editions works only on Windows and Macs.  It does not work
    - or load - on Android devices such as a smartphone.  I've seen a couple of
    postings to the forum that say they have a file on their smartdevice that
    looks like Digital Editions - sometimes complete with the DE logo.  They're
    bogus in the sense that they are not code from Adobe.
    My suggestion is go use your computer's utilities to copy the ebook you
    downloaded to a safe place, and then deinstall the copy of Digital Editions
    you loaded.  Then, go to the Adobe website, create an Adobe ID that's
    separate from the one you've used already, and download a fresh copy of the
    software.  BTW: ADE creates a small ID file for each ebook it downloads and
    appends it to the ebook.  To make things easy, make up an Adobe ID instead
    of using your email address.  That way, if you change email addresses,
    you'll still be able to get to your ebooks.
    When you deinstall ADE, there may be some scraps hanging around.  Use your
    computer's utilities to delete the Digital Editions folder and all of its
    entries.  Look to see that your registry files have been purged as well: if
    you're a Windows user, you can use the Add/Delete Programs utility in the
    Control Panel to do this.
    Good luck - and report back

    You should always backup your iPad before ever doing anything major that coould result in a catastrophic loss is something goes wrong. You can then usually restore from the backup when your iPad has recovered.
    You should also be sure to have transfered any new purchases directly to your iPad to the iTunes app on your computer on a regular basis.

    Yes another user with problem with Apple Mobile Device Support, I am getting the error message: Service 'Apple Mobile Device'(Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Vertify that you have sufficient privileges to start system service....I hit retry and it came up again. I hit ignore and it prompted me to hit finish so Itunes can open.   I looked thru alot of these posts on here to try and resolve this problem myself but it's not working too well...I downloaded Itunes to my desktop so I can right click it with the program i downloaded called WinRAR. I extracted it and then went into the folder called Itunes64setup. I saw the file called AppleMobileDeviceSupport64 in there so I began to try and download it on it's own. Well that didn't work as I planned and got this error message:
    Apple Mobile Device Support wasn't installed on your computer. The installer encountered errors before Apple Mobile Device Support could be configured. Your system has not been modified. To retry these operations at a later time,please run the installer again.
    Well I tried to run it again and came up with the same message...I see that some people got great support to help them so I am hoping someone can help me as well. I know "b nor" is very qualfied and hopefully can help me! Please advise what I can do. Thank you

  • HT1349 Trying to install latest iTunes for Windows 7 64-bit. Keep getting this error message "Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services."

    Initially iTunes would not run although it had been running quite well up until now. Suddenly received this error on PC start-up "The program can't start because MSVC80.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem." Research on Net pointed me to iTunes as the issue. Tried to start iTunes and received that message again. Tried installing latest version of 64-bit iTunes and received the subject message part way through the install: Trying to install latest iTunes for Windows 7 64-bit. Keep getting this error message "Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services."
    iTunes has been running great on this PC for years. What's up?

    Sometimes you have to reset the SMC two or three times for it to work, don't know why. I've seen that error message before and 100% of the time it was fixed with an SMC reset. I suppose it's possible that your keyboard or mouse IS drawing too much power, do you have access to another you could try?

    I reconnected the original powered hub that I thought probably caused the problem and this time it shut down the whole computer. When I rebooted everything now works perfectly. The system reset. I tried another powered hub and it didn't have the same effect so the old one is heading for the bin and with fingers crossed all systems are now working perfectly. Trying to reset PRAM or reset the SMC didn't work but causing the same power issue did. Thanks for your input though. It did get me to think what was the original cause.
