Adobe digital editions stopped working in windows 7

I am not able to open the adobe digital editions in windows 7 because everytime I open it the above message comes up-I have attempted several uninstall and installs- how can this be corrected?

Update.
I have un-installed 2.0 and cleaned out anything that was hanging around.
Re-insalled V3.0.
Unplugged my reader and started up ADE.
It works!
Uploaded a book and, for a few minutes at least, it was stable.
Plugged in my reader, a Kobo touch, and within seconds I go the ADE 3.0 has stopped working message.

Adobe Digital editions- stopped working error

Hi, I am having trouble getting into the Adobe Digital editions. I downloaded it, and it says it is complete, but when I go to open it I get an error message that adobe has stopped working and windows is checking for a solution, window closes nothing happens, can't open it. I triedhe uninstalling it and reinstalling it but the same thing happened again. How do I fix this?

Depends why it stopped working. You could try uninstall and reinstall.
Unfortunately, ADE2.0/2.0.1 is a terrible program riddled with bugs,
unless you need a feature it does not have the best solution is to install 1.7.2.
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.

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.

Adobe Digital Editions 2.0 for Windows with Kobo Desktop reader.

I need to transfer PDF files to my Kobo Desktop reader which is installed on the same PC ad the Adobe Digital Editions 2.0
ADE is authorized with Adobe.
I believe I need to access the Kobo Desktop Reader from ADE first to be able to authorize the KOBO Desktop Reader.
However, the ADE is not recognizing the presence of the reader.
How should I proceed?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

You should post in the ADE forum if you think it is a usage issue with that software. Here's a link to the discussion section:

Adobe Reader XI stopped working in Windows 7

I recently installed the aforementioned, and now cannot open and work with any files. Each time a file opens, I get the message that Adobe Reader has stopped working. Does anyone know why, or more importantly, what I can do about it?

I am having the same issue. Reader opens up and looks like it is about to run then it just stops and I get a message that says it has stopped working. I copied the error report. @patwillener I also tried to go into reader itself and it won't even open. I tried uninstalling the program and I installed a new version. Still nothing, I have ended up having to install 9.5 to get it to run on my computer now. I need help!

The message you are getting is saying that the iPod was previous synced to another computer. You can only sync with one computer. If you sync to another computer then the iPod media from the iPod get erased (as the message says) and is replaced with what is in the iTunes library of the second computer.
Syncing means copying (syncing) media from your iTunes library to your computer)
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
For not showing in iTunes:
- Try entering the screen lock passcode on your iPod if not done already
- Go to Windows Device Manager and see if there is any problems/unknown devices
- Can you not import photos from a digital camera? The iPod appears in My Computer like a camera does.

How do I stop Adobe Reader X from reading documents meant for Adobe Digital Editions?

I was trying to download via Sample e-Book Library, just to check if my Adobe Digital Editions was working properly.
Turns out, PDFs / Urls are interrrupted by Adobe Reader X.
Even though Adobe Reader X is unable to read it, or as it keeps telling me: "Adobe reader could not open URLLINK.acsm because it is either not a supported file type, or because the file has been damaged"
Any suggestions to how I could abort Adobe Reader X from automatically read documents meant for Adobe Digital Editions?

It's Windows 8.
Turns out the problem was acsm.files preconfigured to be opened in Adobe Reader. The solution was to right click on the file(s) in Downloads, and then reconfigure it through the option "open as/in ..."
and somehow give the correct adress, through Computer:/ C and so on, to the Adobe Digital Editions.

?I can't download digital editions. I have Windows 7 and am registered with Adobe.

?I can't download adobe digital editions. I have Windows 7 and am registered with Adobe. My browser is Internet explorer 8

Win 7 has given many people some 'issues'. There are postings to the forum
that point out you have to set your security so that it will allow
downloads from certain sites, and I seem to recall that these settings need
to recognize Adobe as a source and allow it through the firewall. Wish I
had the exact post, but I do not. But I'd bet a search on Windows 7 will
pull up some more information.

Sony Reader - Adobe Digital Editions DRMed books causing crashes

Hi,
Hopefully someone has seen this behaviour before and knows how to solve it.
I'm in the UK with the UK version of the Sony PRS-505 eBook Reader which runs software version 1.2.00.18050. I've installed the Sony eBook Library and the Adobe Digital Editions (ADE) software on Windows XP and they both worked perfectly. The 'free' books that came with the Reader install just fine as do free books from places like feedbooks.com.
However, when I want to buy a book, things go badly wrong. ADE sees the Reader and I can register it. I then tried to download a book from the Waterstones online store (Waterstones are the UK partner for Sony). The file transferred and looks fine inside ADE.
However, when I copied the file to the Reader's internal memory and unplugged it from the computer, things began to go wrong. The spinning refresh icon appeared and the Reader reset, rebooted, up came the refresh icon, reset, reboot - and so on and on and on...
I performed a hard reset on the Reader, re-registered it with ADE and tried installing the DRMed book on the SD card. After unplugging the Reader, it began to endlessly reboot just as before. Removing the card stopped the rebooting and the Reader behaved as normal. Delete the book from the card, plug it back in and the Reader is happy - so it's definitely something to do with the book or the DRM on the book. I've tried a couple of titles and each of them do the same thing.
After pleading for help on a mobileread forum, another UK user has had exactly the same problem. He has had his Reader exchanged for another one but that too is crashing when he tries to use DRMed content.
So has anyone here seen this problem? I'm completely stuck as Waterstones, from whom I've bought it are passing the buck to Sony and they are almost certainly going to pass it on to Adobe.
Any help would be HUGELY appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike.

Update Two:
I zorched the Reader, then reloaded ALL content to a Memory Stick. Once this had completed it's initial scan, it would refresh in a couple of minutes when accessed with Sony's software, then detached from the computer.
I next re-authorized the Reader and added a single protected book via ADE to the internal memory of the Reader, with the MS removed. This book was the only thing in the Reader. It loaded, but the Reader took a relatively long time to refresh after disconnect (like 25 seconds, with only one book). I can access the book without a problem.
Next I installed the MS. It took about six or seven minutes, but it came up OK (about 200 books on there). After that I connected the Reader to the computer for a minute or two and then detached it. It completed the two refresh cycles in about 30 seconds (internal memory then the MS).
Next I plugged it into the computer and accessed it with the Sony software. I then ejected it via the software and unplugged it and it's been stuck in a refresh cycle ever since. I expect it to crash if I wait long enough, but I'll probably pull the card after finishing this post.
Something is happening to the Reader that is causing it to be VERY slow about scanning external memory after it's authorized by ADE.
Next experiment is to see if what happens with just a dozen or so books only on the internal memory.
UPDATE 3:
So I put about a dozen books in the internal memory, no external cards. That refreshed in about 5 seconds after detaching from the Sony software. I then added four more protected books via ADE. Detaching from the computer after that the Reader took about two minutes to refresh the content (now only 16 books, 5 protected by ADE).
Adding a few more books from the Sony software caused about a two minute refresh cycle. Next detach with Sony software was very fast (no changes, just listing the contents) as was one where I added a single file.
I'll keep adding stuff to the internal memory to see what happens.
Finally, I'd note that when the Reader hangs the spinning arrows are frozen, or only move once a minute or so, as opposed to spinning rapidly but for a long time.
I think you can recreate this problem if you just load up an external memory device with a 150 or so books from your favorite public domain source, then start adding a few protected by ADE. Users with 650+ books have reported that it only takes their readers about three minutes to refresh the contents after unhooking the from the computer, so I'm pretty sure something is amiss here.
Thanks again for looking at this. I can keep swapping stuff around manually, but I really liked having all my books on the Reader so I can pick and choose while on trips. Not being able to use the memory expansion is a significant drawback.

After installation of cs4 extended upgrade update installations get "adobe setup has stopped working

I've used CS3 and CS4 expanded (upgrade) on my older computer with Windows XP and though slow, mainly after cs4 was installed, they worked well. I've recieved a new computer for christmas and am moving my CS3 and CS4 expanded (upgrad) to the new computer and am having some problems.
My new computer setup is this.....
Windows Vista , Premium Home edition (65bit) with SP1
Intel Core i7-920 Quad Core Processor
RAM -3GB DDR3
Amount of free disk space. 653 GB
Make/Model of Video Card. - ATI Radeon HD 4850
CS3 installs fine though on execution photoshop says that it prefers a dua core processor I click the continue button and it seems to run fine.
After installing CS3 I restart and upload CS4, which takes a long time!, then run bridge to install updates and thats where my first problem occurs.
When the updates are installing I get this message...."Adobe setup has stopped working" and windows looks for a solution which of course isn't there, ha!
So I've tried to use CS4 without the updates, run bridge, select a photo to open in photoshop and after photo opens in photoshop an error message comes up saying this "the specified modul could not be found C:\programfiles\commonfiles\adobe\Adobe Version Cue C44\client\4.0.1\Version Cue.DLL" and when I x out the error box photoshop closes, unable to use it any further (not bridge though)
I suspect this error message comes up because I can't do the updates? Either way I sure could use some help here!
Oh, and I've deactivated and reinstalled and the same happended after reinstallation.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give!

People like me, who distrust Adobe's updater, get the updates from the Adobe download site. That way you have control and you only get what you need. For example, if you are not working with colleagues on a network you don't need Version Cue.
Don't worry about the message regarding the processor. Adobe's installers are just as bad as their automatic updates and your processor is simply too new and they are not up-to-date. You may get similar false alarms with Bridge.

Adobe Digital editions won't open

I''ve installed ADE but it won't open and I can't open an acsm file with it. In either case I immediately get the
"Adobe Digital Editions and encountered a problem and must close". I've searched several message boards and see many complaints about the intaller not opening or the installer not working properly but that is NOT the problem I'm having. The program itself will not open after being succesfully installed.

Your English is excellent.
I'm reminded of an international conference my brother-in-law went to.
Someone asked a question in bad English.
A pompous English person complained and said 'The language of this conference is English'
A Dane replied, 'No, the official language of this conference is broken English'.

By the 'old black one' I guess you mean ADE (Adobe Digital Editions) v1.7.2.
When ADE2.0 doesn't work, that is the one I usually suggest as it is much more reliable, but sounds as if you have tried it.
Just in case, link below.
~~~
I suggest you
> Uninstall all copies of ADE.
> If you don't have safe copies of your books, make a backup of any books first.
> Check for any folder left behind and delete it. eg
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Adobe\Adobe Digital Editions
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Digital Editions
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Digital Editions 2.0
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Adobe\Adobe Digital Editions 2.0
C:\Users\<your Windows username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Digital Editions
C:\Users\<your Windows username>\Documents\My Digital Editions
It may not be practicable to keep your old library structure, I don't know how important that is too you.
Similarly any notes and annotations.
> Try again ...
Reinstall ADE. (I'd use 1.7.2 as more reliable, but 2.0 if there any new features you really need)
Run ADE and remove any memory it may have of authorizations (ctrl-shift-D and respond to prompts)
It often half remembers and confuses things.
Restart ADE
Authorize ADE with your Adobe ID.
held og lykke

Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.
