ADE not authorizing

I am unable to authorize my Windows 7 laptop with ADE.  I have version 2.0.1, which I installed earlier today.  My adobe Id is working since I have also reset my password today.  However when I clieck authoze after entering my credentials, i receive the error "the vendor account you entered is not associated with the item you are trying to open. try again"
does anyone have a suggestion on how to resolve this?  thx

That message usually comes when you try to access a book, not when you authorize. 
What exactly do you mean by  when I clieck authoze after entering my credentials. 
Basically entering your credentials is authorizing.
Without more detail impossible to be sure, but two things that often help ....
Two possible solutions ...
1) ~~~~~
Sometimes ADE gets its registration/activation confused and in a semi-authorized state.
Uninstalling and reinstalling does not help.
Unfortunately, it often then gives misleading error messages about what is wrong.
A common incorrect message informs you that the ID is already in use on another computer and cannot be reused.
This can often be resolved by completely removing any authorization using ctrl-shift-D to the Library screen on ADE (cmd-shift-D if on Mac).
Restart ADE, and then reauthorize with your (old) Adobe ID.
In extreme cases on the mac, the following extra step has helped some people.  Navigate to /Users//Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions and drag the activation.dat file to the trash. If you are using 10.7, see Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 Lion. http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1265248?tstart=0
2) ~~~~~~~~~
There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0 (and 2.0.1).  Try replacing ADE2.0 with the older but more reliable v1.7.2.
(You can have them both installed at once if you like.)
Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.
http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editions/kb/cant-install-digital-editions.html
The forum software is sometimes corrupting the link above.  There shouldn't be a blank in 'editio ns.html'.  The following redirects to the same page: http://tinyurl.com/diged172
Some people have found ADE trying to upgrade automatically. 
It appears (not 100% sure) that if you install ADE2.0 as a new install (not as an upgrade) that your 1.7.2 will continue to run.
Probably best to say no if 2.0.x installation asks if you want to migrate your library.

  • Why is Nook Study saying my ADE epub is "not authorized?"

    I have an EPUB file that I purchased from a vendor other than Barnes & Noble.
    I used Adobe Digital Editions to manage the EPUB book onto my Nook Color, which is authorized to open my ADE library.
    I can use ADE to read the EPUB book on my laptop, which also is authorized to open my ADE library.
    However, I cannot use the Nook Study application to read the EPUB book on my laptop.  The error I am getting says, "This textbook is not authorized to be read on this computer."
    Any ideas what the problem is here?  I'd be happy to "authorize" the Nook Study installation, if I need to, but I don't know how to authorize an application that is running on an alread-authorized device...

  • Device not authorized - Kobo

    I authorized my Kobo in ADE and can transfer the book to my kobo but when I try to open the book, it tells me my device is not authorized so I can't open it. I tried reseting to factory settings and set it up on someone else's account and it works. I reseted to factory settings and tried again and I always get the same error message. For some reason, even when ADE confirms the device has been authorized it doesn't work. Whit all the tests I did, I know the issue is with my ADE account and not my device. Can anyone help?

    Did your KOBO also authorized with the same Adobe ID? If not, please authorize KOBO with the same Adobe ID and try opening the book.

    My iPhone wont let me download some apps that i have payed for on on my account; it says my iPhone is not authorized for this computer, but it is.

    No, iTunes never says an iPhone is not authorized.
    This is occurring on a computer, correct?
    Is the computer authorized for the account the media or apps were acquired with?

  • Unable to use Datasource.cfc in Admin API - The current user is not authorized to invoke this method

    Hi Everyone,
    I am having some issues accessing the methods in the datasource.cfc in the adminAPI.
    I can successfully load the administrator CFC and am told that I have successsfuly logged in;
    But when I try to subsequently load the datasource.cfc I get an error that the current user is unable to access the method.
    /* Create an Admin API object and call the login method */
                                                      var local = {};
                                                      local.adminObj = createObject("component", "cfide.adminapi.administrator");
                                                      /* Enter your password for the CF Admin */
      /* if you dump this - TRUE is returned */
                                                      local.adminObj.login(adminPassword="my_admin_user_password");
                                                      /* Create an object of datasource component */
                                                      local.dsnObj = createObject("component", "cfide.adminapi.datasource");
      writeDump(local.dsnObj.getDataSources());
    I tried creating separate admin users and passwords - yhinking that perhaps a revent hotfix had stopped the "admin" user from being allowed to use the adminAPI - but changing to a new adminuser yielded the same results.
    I could login to the admin API with the new username and passsword - but could not access the datasource.cfc after that.
    Here is the debug output from the error...
    The current user is not authorized to invoke this method.

    and I agree I don't have "E" drive either!

    I've found a solution to my plight - I don't know if it'll work for you or help you try something that MAY fix it.
    I use a common code set which includes the Application.cfc from a CF Mapping - So, in the application.cfc in the actual website I do this:-
    <cfinclude template="/UberDirectory/Application.cfc">
    Then, in the /UberDirectory/Application.cfc, I was initialising a CFC which checks if the datasource was created for the website. The datasource checking code attempts to log into the Admin API and check & create if necessary the datasource.
    This has previously worked without fail for me - But in this instance it failed!! I was doing two things wrong - Firstly, the CFC should only be called in the Application.cfc in the onRequestStart section as the Application had to be initialised first - This is maybe because I've invoked the application.cfc in a "non-standard" manner.
    Secondly, once I'd moved the CFC invocation into oNRequestStart I saw the following error:-
    The string COOKIE.CFAUTHORIZATION_uber-directory is not a valid ColdFusion variable name.
    I had this as the app name .... <cfset this.name = 'uber-directory'>
    Changedthe dash to an underscore and I was away and could once again check the datasources
    Hope it helps

  • [SOLVED]Mounting usb drives "not authorized" with thunar-volman (XFCE)

    Hi,
    I'm new to Arch (even though I must be approximately at my 15th try at installing it properly) and I have a problem with thunar-volman.
    Whenever I log in as user, and try to mount a usb drive with thunar, let's say I want to plug a drive labeled Ext3_8Go, I get the same message in a pop-up window : "Failed to mount Ext3_8Go (or anything close, not in English in the text), not authorized (that part is in English)"
    My install is :
    - net install
    - partitions : 9Go for /, no swap, no separate /home
    - packages : base and base-devel. The only modifications in the package list is that I remove ppp, pcmciautils, and xfsprogs.
    - config : at the install stage I only modify rc.conf to change LOCALE and HOSTNAME, and pacman's mirrorlist to allow all French mirrors in addition to the one at the top.
    When the usb installation is over, I run this script :
    "installation_xfce.sh"  (there may be some errors left, I modify this script as I learn) :
    #!/bin/bash
    # expected environment : freshly installed archlinux, login : root.

    For those who don't have time to read the installation script, DBUS is in the DAEMONS list of rc.conf, and .xinitrc launches : exec ck-launch-session startxfce4
    Any idea ?

    Thanks a lot !
    That worked !
    I stumbled across this part of the wiki several times before, but didn't really understand so I had not tried.
    If anyone's interested in the script, here's the corrected version :
    #!/bin/bash
    # expected environment : freshly installed archlinux, login : root.
    echo "Are you connected to internet ? If not, please Ctrl+C and reload this script when connected"
    echo "Otherwise, press ENTER to continue installation"
    read var_dummy
    echo "Creation of the user : please type in your user name :"
    read var_username
    useradd -u 1000 -g users -G audio,lp,storage,optical,video,wheel,games,power,network -d /home/$var_username/ -s /bin/bash -m $var_username

  • I have just purchased a new pc and when I try to play 2 separate albums that I bought from the itunes store I get a message that my computer is not authorized. I then follow the steps to authorize it and the same thing happens when I attempt to play this

    Just purchased a new pc with windows 8. Transferred over my itunes. With 2 different albums in my library, when I attempt to play this music I get a message saying my computer is not authorized. I then sign in to authorize the computer, itunes  tells me it is indeed authorized, I attempt to play this music again and I get the same "your computer is not authorized" message again, and again....
    Any help out there on this one would be appreciated. If my question is not clear enough I will attempt to help.
    Thank you,
    mike

  • FR Studio 11.1.1.3 : You're not authorized to use this function...

    Hi,
    we have FR Studio (client, v. 11.1.1.3.0238 and Report Server v. 11.1.1.3.0.0301) distributed on Citrix terminal server (windows 2003 32-bit) and on latest 2 prod servers we have this error "You're not authorized to use this function. Contact your administrator." appearing.
    On QA server FR Studio works fine, we had an issue there when we forgot to set ports
    8295-8299 to "listening mode" = they were not defined on FR server's FR_servp.properties config files.
    This is also fixed on Prod FR servers and we have double checked firewalls are open.
    After adding them to QA FR servers we had no issues with FR Studio on QA, but on PROD the issue still exists.
    We have also checked that this shouldn' have anything to do with authentication.
    Odd thing is that we get at least partially same sort of error messages on both working and non-working FRClient.log files.
    On FRClient.log there are for example following records:
    08-04 09:26:11 ERROR ConfigResourceBundle     Could not find fr_configcache.properties file
    08-04 09:26:11 ERROR SerializableResourceBundle     Could not get registry instance

    That propably gives already an idea what FR Studio is logging.
    Does anyone have idea about this .properties file for frconfig cache?
    Should that be defined somehow during system configuration as we don't find that from any of our environments?
    Just for additional info:
    We have used following packages and installed HFM Admin Client, FR Studio and EPMA File Generator GUI.
    •     02. installer - V17382-01.zip
    •     03. foundation 1 of 4 - V17397-01.zip
    •     03. foundation 2 of 4 - V17369-01.zip
    •     04. architect - V17398-01.zip
    •     08. financial reporting - V17378-01.zip
    •     11. financial management - V17365-01.zip
    Patches:
    + hfm_11113_50-p9976978_111130_WINNT.zip
    + financial reporting_11113_20-p9657652_11113_WINNT.zip
    During the installation we selected:
    Foundation \
    Performance Management Architect\Performance Management Architect File Generator
    Financial Management\
    Financial Management Client
    Financial ManagementADM Driver
    Financial Reporting\
    Financial Reporting Studio Client
    I noticed that apparently no configuration was run neither in QA or in PROD, not sure though if FR Studio even requires that? HFM Admin Client does work on all environments Citrix servers.
    But in Dev and LAB where FR Studio is working fine - FRClient logs absolutely no recods at all and there we did run configuration to tell which SQL db is on background.
    Not sure though whether that config run has any significance for FR Studio.
    Sorry for extremely long story, but just in case if anybody has faced similar issues and whether there could be something with Windows server settings I should go and check?
    Btw... even adding this fr_configcache.properties manually (to try to highlight FR server name and port) it seems FR Client can't find the file.

    Denis,
    Thank you for the prompt reply.

  • Cannot sync my apps to my iPhone, says I am not authorized even thought i have authorized.

    I am able to sync everything except for my applications.  An error comes up saying I am not authorized on this computer but I have deauthorized and authorized again. 

    I have same problem, apps are removed everytime I sync my phone because am in a loop of messages claiming that I have authorized more than 5 computers with Itunes stuff (not true, computer has had upgrades to operating system, that's all); This is highly annoying. Because I don't know what would happen if I deauthorize my computer (does everything Apple/Itunes disappear?) I don't have the courage to deauthorize the computer and furthermore, I don't know if that would solve the problem.
    Still looking for a solution to this problem. HOping I can find an answer somewhere.
