Adobe Digital Editions not detecting device

My Adobe Digital Editions is not detecting my NOOK tablet. Please help

Unlike dedicated eReaders, most tablets are not recognized by ADE.
You need to install and Adobe DRM compatible app such as Blufire on the tablet,
and copy files using a file manager.
~~~
Another possibility is a bug in ADE2.0, which is strippy with some devices.
There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0. 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.

Why does adobe digital editions not recognize my nook?

Why would adobe digital editions not recognize my nook when I connect the nook through the usb port?

Thanks for the quick reply, and sorry for the late response. I'm trying to do this for my mum on her computer, but I don't live with her, so it can be hard for me to find the spare time to get to her place.
Okay, let me start by listing a few things in dot points:
- Adobe Digital Editions does not recognise the device. There doesn't even appear to be any menu options for a "device" anywhere in the program.
- When I connect the device to the computer, the screen lights up and the word "USB" appears on it, so it is definitely noting the PC connection. However, no device appears in "My Computer" (running Windows XP). Tried using "Add Devices", but it couldn't find anything.
- Yellowstone, the brand, appears to be a product of JB Hifi, the store she purchased it from, and has no website or online software/drivers.
- I downloaded Calibre as you said. It seems a lot cheaper, but has easier to read options. However, it still won't let me load to my device (the text is greyed-out). I assume this means the program is not recognising the device either.
Not sure what to do now, kinda run out of ideas. Any more help would be greatly appreciated.

How to install adobe digital editions on android device (zt pad)

how to install adobe digital editions on android device (zt pad)

I don't think ADE will itself run on Android.
You need to install an app such as Bluefire (free) which supports DRM epub books.
Make sure you authorise it with the same AdobeID you use on the PC or to buy books.
You can get books on the PC with ADE, download them, 'sideload' the .epub files to the tablet using a file manager such as Windows Explorer, and read them on Bluefire.
For library books, the Overdrive app (free) should allow you to borrow, doanload and read books with no need for a PC or ADE.

Adobe Digital Editions not responding

I try to open adobe digital editions and it says not responding as soon as I open it and it does nothing for hours. It still does this even after uninstalling it and reinstalling it. I really need this program to work on three essays. Please help.

Two possibilities.
One is you have hit a bug in v2.0.x. Try using the less buggy 1.7.2 instead (see below).
The other is that you have an ereader device plugged in with lots of books on it.
A new installation of ADE has the very irritating habit of completely searching such a device for books that have nothing to do with ADE,
and writing lots of extra information about them to the device that you don't want there.
This is a very slow process, and it gives no indication that it is happening.

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 does adobe digital editions not recogize my pandigital nova e reader/tablet?

My pandigital 7" E reader/tablet is not recognized by adobe digital editions. I have looked on the site for compatible devices and it is listed. It has the kindle app installed and as far as I know it is has an adroid system 2,3,4 Any help would be appreciated

You'll want to ask at the Digital Editions forum :: http://forums.adobe.com/community/adobe_digital_editions rather than here (the Adobe Reader forum).

How can i reset authorizations for Adobe Digital Editions in old devices?

I need to reset all authorizations (except in my Mac) in old devices of Adobe Digital Editions? Some malfunction, i lost others. I need to clean permissions to get new devices.
Thanks.
Necesito retirar las autorizaciones en viejos dispositivos de Adobe Digital Editions, pues algunos no funcionan ya y otros los perdí, para poder usarlas en nuevos dispositivos.
Gracias.

You cannot, nor do you need to.
You can have up to 5 computers authorized. When you reach 5, you can deauthorize all.

Adobe Digital Editions Not Downloading?

My adobe digital editions 2.0 does not work. I've tried to download version 1.7 but it keeps me going in circles from one website to another. Even 2.0 won't download, What can I do?

That pointer leads me to a download of ADE 2.0.1 at http://www.adobe.com/uk/products/digital-editions/download.html
If I am not logged op, it doesn't seem to know I am in UK and works fine.
You need to get the website updated properly.

Adobe Digital Editions not reading Kobo Vox

I can't seem to get the Adobe Digital Editions to read the Kobo Vox. I've done it before on another computer with a Kobo mini but for some reason it's not working. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

The Vox is a general table rather than a dedicated eReader, and needs the appropriate software installed.
See thread http://forums.adobe.com/message/4775728 for more details.
In summary, for library books, install the Overdrive app. That avoids the need for ADE/PC at all if you so wish.
For general ADE compatibility, install the Aldiko app.

How to un-authorize adobe digital edition from other devices?

Hi,
I have used a few devices that had bluefire or adobe digital installed on it. when i made an attempt to install an e-book on a new device i was informedd that i could not download new content because i have used digital additions on too many devices.
Could someone point me in the right direction in obtaining or un-authorizing those devices that I no longer have in hand.

When you deactivate a device, the used activation is not added back to the pool.
How do I increase the number of activations if I run out?
You can go to this Adobe page to increase the number of activations: http://www.adobe.com/support/digitaleditions/.

How do I change my device authorisation details in Adobe Digital Editions?

I recently changed my email and have updated my Adobe ID but Adobe Digital Editions still holds the old ID and doesn't seem to give me an option to change. There are no instructions or FAQ's about the issue - only how to set an ID etc up. The only thing I've thought is to delete ADE from my computer and reload it, but I don't want to lose the books I have on there already....
Cheers

Is Toshiba Journ.e Touch compatible with Adobe Digital Editions?

Greetings from Barcelona!
I have problems to authorize my Toshiba Journ.e Touch. Adobe Digital Editions recognizes the device, but there is no way to authorize it, there is no option for this.
Thus I cannot transfer my ebooks from my computer to the Toshiba. At the Adobe Forum it seems that other users had the same problem. I cannot transfer my ebooks from my computer to the Toshiba Device.
Does anybody know what is wrong or how to solve this?
Thanks so much!
Cristina

Hello cristinadeseras,
unfortunately, it is not possible to use the "Adobe Digital Editions" on the JournE Touch.
The system requirements of the JournE Touch are not enough for this program.

Mac Digital Editions not Downloading eBooks through Safari

I recently had problem with Adobe Digital Editions not downloading files from the MyMediaMall library website. It had worked initially, but developed a fault probably to do with Safari. I could download limited titles from the Adobe sample book web page but nothing from the library's site. To fix the problem it was necessary to remove Digital Editions from my computer and reinstall it. To remove digital Editions completely it is necessary to do the following.
To completely delete Adobe Digital Editions from an iMac with Snow Leopard OS 10 locate delete the following folders and files:
1. Under, /Documents/Digital Editions, drag the Digital Editions folder to the trash
2. Locate, /Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash Player/www.macromedia.com/bin/digitaleditions. Drag the digitaleditions1x5 folder to the Trash. Empty the Trash.
3. Open the "Keychain" utility located in Applications/Utilities. In the left hand column under category click Passwords. Locate and click "Digital Editions" in the main window. Right click this file and click delete.
4. With these files and folders deleted download and reinstall the Adobe Digital Editions software. It will be necessary to go through the authorization process again.
I hope this will save another Mac/Safari user some trouble in the future.
