ADOBE DIGITAL EDITIONS FOR MAC ??

I just downloaded adobe digital editions and my macbook air and it keeps quitting unexpectedly when i try to read a book i just downloaded from the library. It wont stay open for more than a few seconds. Please help!

I found an answer to a similar question on the Forum from TTWTT (TTMTT), who posted a link to download versions 2 and 3 of Digital Editions at Adobe Digital Editions downloads (Adobe Digital Editions downloads). I had tried find these downloads on Adobe's far from helpful website with total lack of success. Version 3 seems to be working on Mavericks; I have no idea if version 3 will work on Yosemite. From other threads in this forum, it sounds like Adobe Digital Editions does not work very well (if at all) on Yosemite.
Whether Adobe is working is a totally different question.
So far it appears that Adobe Digital Editions 4.02 is a disaster, best avoided.

Trouble with Adobe Digital Editions for Mac - please Help

I just got a Kobo Glo and am trying to download/install the Adobe Digital Editions software on my Mac but I am running into issues: (I not very versed in computers so I hope someone can walk me through my issues slowly)
I tried to download the Adobe Digital Editions software and got a screen saying installation was complete, I appear to have Adobe Digital Editions 2.0 and Adobe Digital Editions icons in my applications folder, when I go to open the Adobe Digital Editions 2.0 Icon I am taken to a "bookshelves" page with a "Getting Started with Adobe Digital Editions" booklet in it.
I do not know how to open the Adobe Digital Editions actual software so I can access the "set up assistant" to authorize my computer??????????????? It does not seem to want to open on it's own and I have no idea how to find it. I do have an Adobe ID.
I thank you in advance for any help you are able to provide. Once again I am not very computer literate so please be very specific.

When you have ADE (digital editions) open with "bookshelves" page with a "Getting Started with Adobe Digital Editions" booklet in it,
enter cmd-shift-U, or menu/Help/Authorize Computer.
That will ask for your Adobe ID and password and authorize the computer.
Once that has been done you shouldn't need to do it again.
Sometimes you do need to if things go wrong, but you certainly shouldn't have to do it at all regularly.
When that has been done, plug in the Kobo; it should show up in the left pane of ADE.
Use "menu/Help/Authorize Device" and that will authorize your Kobo with the Adobe ID from the Mac.
You can then copy books by drag-dropping onto the Kobo within ADE

Digital Editions for Mac Support for Sony eReaders

With Sony releasing the eBook Library 3.0 Software for Mac and PC today and, therein, providing an official Sony eReader driver for Mac (sony_prs kernel extension found in the 3.0 software installer), will Adobe be able to provide support for the Sony eReaders in a future version of Adobe Digital Editions for Mac? As far as I understood, the limitation on the Mac version stemmed from the fact that Sony itself did not officially support the Mac but with that now in the past when can we expect to see this support added in Adobe Digital Editions for Mac? Thank you!

Not as such. However there are a few apps that will let you read DRM books.
Check out in the reader store
DL Reader: that one has worked best for me
Overdrive: could be good for library books, sometimes stroppy about getting your Adobe ID registration working
DReader: I couldn't get it to behave, but might be worth trying for you

Adobe Digital edition on Mac

I just bought a MacBook Pro 13 inch running 10.8. (My previous one Mac crashed and died after 4 years.) Went to use Adobe Digital edition and it said I needed to upgrade to 2.0. I went through the process, as directed, was asked if I wanted to migrate books and I said yes. Then was asked if I wanted to automatically unintall version 1.7. Said yes to that but it didn't work and the screen came up that I have to uninstall manually but I can't find this version anymore. In addition can't open the migrated books. I get a message that says Activation Server error - code E_ACT_NOT_READY. Digital Editions encounter an error on the activation server. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling but the same thing happens. How do I use this edition so I can read my books. Thanks. Nancy

I think Adobe Reader for iOS only handles PDF files, not EPUB files.

Cannot load ebook in Adobe Digital Editions on Mac

HELP! I purchased an ebook (PDF) and I'm having trouble using it in Adobe Digital Editions. I receive the following error...
Error getting license
License server communication problem: E_LIC_ALREADY_FULFILLED_BY_ANOTHER_USER
I had been trying to transfer the ebook to my iphone using TXTR but the app can not load the document.
I THINK I may have originally downloaded the ebook to Adobe Digital Editions without authorizing my computer, then when I later authorized it the ebook will no longer load.
Is there a solution. Is the ebook tied to my Adobe ID when I download it. I've tried re-downloading the ebook but I still get the same error. I've also tried removing and reinstalling Adobe Digital Editions.
By the way, I am on a Mac computer.
Thank you for any help you can give.

You can print the book if the publisher has given the print permission.
Can you provide the exact error statement? It will be helpful in understanding the issue.

Sony Reader PRS-505 don't appears on Digital Edition for Mac OSX 10.5

I now, Sony® Reader PRS-505 appears on Mac as mass storage card, but in the specifications for Digital Editions, it doesn't say any think about that is not support for mac, and I would like to know if the Sony® Reader PRS-505 doesn't appears on my mac because is not supported by Digital Editions on Mac or because I have a problem. If not , Is going to be a support for it on the immediate future.
Now that Digital Editions offer support for Windows I believe Adobe have to offer parity for Mac.
Thanks very much.

I can concur that this Mac workaround does not actually work, for protected digital editions checked out from a public library website.
The Adobe staffer said that as a one time process, you can authroize the reader itself on a windows machine, by stating "Next, plug in your Sony Reader and then in ADE, select the Reader and choose "Authorize Device" from the Library menu"
I did not see this option, the only authorize command in the library menu was to authorize the computer, not the reader.
On my windows machine, my PRS-505 shows up in the Adobe digital editions software, and I verified that the copy of digital editions was registered to my adobe ID (email address). I can use the windows digital editions software to copy checked out titles to the PRS-505 no problem, they last the 3 weeks they are supposed to and open up fine on the 505.
On the Mac, I can download checked out titles from the library to the mac digital editions software, and read them on the Mac. They last the 3 weeks as expected.
I can also, using the mac's finder, copy the downloaded digital edition book to the reader, which shows up in the finder as a mass storage device. When I fire up the reader, the transferred titles are there.
HOWEVER, if I try to actually read the checked out title from the library (that I copied over from the Mac) I get a blank screen that says "not authorized". Going along with this, the title, in the library view on the PRS-505, does not show the little "day counter" that counts down how many days you have from your 21 day borrowing window.
So yes, you can use the Mac finder to manually copy a downloaded digital edition to the PRS-505, but its not actually authorizing that copied book to the reader, so you can actually READ it on the reader. That authorization process only seems to happen on a PC, when you use the digital editions software to do the copy instead of the Mac finder.
So I don't think there is an actual workaround, at least not for me.

Hi Jeff and Gibert.. I had the same issue but knew that my system prefs were fine... I found the workaround... just below is a link that will take you to a page to do a manual download... both for Mac and Windows. I did it last night and was able to open my files properly in Adobe Digital Edition. Hope that helps!

Since the new library gives you the same message log into another user account on your Mac and see if you can run iPhoto without getting that message. If you get that message there also a reinstall of iPhoto seems indicated. To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/ folder,

Then install iPhoto from the disk it came on originally and apply all available updates to it.

Adobe Digital Editions for IPad?

I frequently review books for an online book digest. Publishers are increasingly distributing galley proofs digitally, most often using the Adobe Digital Editions app, which seems to be compatible with every kind of ebook reader....except the IPad. I haven't found an IPad version at the app store, and I don't have a Kindle or a Nook or any of those devices that read Adobe's DRM-protected files, and so am forced to non-portably read these galleys on my IMac. Anyone know if an IPad DE app is in the offing? Or failing that, a workaround? (I tried using Txtr, which claims it can read DE files. Not.)

Incidentally, you do know that you can buy kindle or Nook apps for your ipad? I was assuming you wanted a DE-specific app.
EDIT Actually, those apps are free--you just pay for what you buy through them, if that helps you any.
Incidentally, O'Reilly, my publisher, uses PDF for real galley purposes, although they do create epub editions of their books for distribution. You might want to ask the publishers you work with if there's another format available.
