Can't activate Digital Editions

Can't activate Digital Editions. Error:  E_ADEPT_REQUEST_EXPIRED http://adeactivate.adobe.com/adept/Activate 2012-09-02T13:32:48-07:00%20(1346617968000)%20is%20before%202012-09-02T14:06:49-07:00%20( 1346620009678) I checked date and  time zone of computer (and tried all possibilities. I have moved from Ghana to Europe to Canada in recent years). Also activated immediately after download, so 'good until' time should not have passed. What now?

Thanks A LOT!! I have been going crazy for the past hour trying to understand why I kept getting that error message when I tried to authorize my computer. I even contacted customer service through chat but they couldn't help me.
So yes, same thing as you : the way to finally manage to authorize the computer was to CHANGE THE TIME. Actually, funnily enough, what worked for me was changing the Time Zone. I think it's based on what address or city you give when you register.
For example, for me, I had the right time for my city, but the wrong Time Zone. Once everything matched, it worked.
So for those of you who get that "REQUEST_EXPIRED" error message, you now know what to do!

  • I have a Kobo N416  E-Reader. It is no longer supported by Kobo and is outdated. I was told that I can use Adobe Digital Editions Desktop App to download book to this Kobo N416 E-Reader . How do I do this ? Thanks

    Question;  How do I download Ebooks to my Kobo N416 e-reader using Adobe Digital Editions App ? I have already tried to get help from Kobo Techs but they say the Kobo N416 E-Reader is no longer supported by Kobo and is outdated. Kobo told me to use Adobe Digital Editions to download the books I bought on Kobo to my Kobo N416 E-Reader. I have already contacted Adobe Digital Editions for help but they could not help me and told me to go to Adobe Forums.

    I didnt't say that our business is using Linux Desktops. I wrote, our main clientele is. And what our customers do like to use is something we cannot control...
    >What difference does it make to you if Adobe releases a new version of Reader that is not supported on Linux?
    a new Adobe Reader version that's supported on Linux would be nice. a dialogue between Adobe and Linux developers would be nice...
    >As long as the old versions can open the files correctly, that's all that matters, no?
    No, not if our staff is trained to use the newest Adobe Acrobat (trainings are usually for the newest versions) and uses that to produce forms. Now the files open correctly. But what will be in some months or years? Do people working on Linux do have to print the forms then again to fill in?
    So do you recommend that we stop the process of producing electronic forms and stay with paper-fill-in forms? Is that the goal of Adobe? (maybe not so clever for your "financial viability"?!?!? ... ein schuss ins eigene bein?!?!)
    >Adobe is a public company and therefore it's not going to maintain a version of its software at great cost if it's not financially viable. It's as simple as that...
    So it is to be interpreted that Adobe is interested in killing Linux cause if users cannot work with let's say forms, they will have to switch to something that can do that for them...
    We definitely don't want to force Windows or Mac on our clientele. So as far as I get it, we will go back to paper forms and terminate our licence agreements with Adobe and deinstall it...

  • Can't install Digital Editions

    Downloaded Digital Editions 2.0 and clicked Run, I agreed to EULA, accecpted the default install option, it appeared to install OK and Digital Editions started but did not ask me to activate.  I clicked on Help and a message appeared "Adobe Digital Editions 2.0 has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience."  I have tried uninstalling and re downloading with the same problem.  Computer is an AMD 2800+, Win XP Home SP3.  Any Suggestions?

    Hi
    Here is the link I was given: 
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/403/kb403051/attachments/setup.exe
    I have now tested it by downloading one of the books from adobe's sample ebook library.  It opened in ADE fine but I haven't tried transfering to my ereader yet.
    Good luck

  • How can I deploy Digital Edition 2.0 through SCCM?

    Hello all,
    I would like to know how I can deploy Digital Edition through my company's SCCM solution. When I create my usual setup for new software to be deployed, I get the Digital Edition package sent out correctly to my test machines, but nothing gets installed. It just stands forever and tries to install, then when I reset the machines, it gives me an error that I reset doing installation. But I know it wasn't even really trying to install the software.
    Is there an msi file somewhere I can download and distribute to my users?
    Kind regards,
    Kasper

    Moving this discussion to the Adobe Digital Editions forum.
    Kwy28 the Adobe Digital Editions software was not designed to be deployed.  You will either want to ask the users who need to use the software to install it individually or install it on one system and then use a utility like Norton Ghost to make an image of that computer.

  • ?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.

  • Can't authorise Digital Editions

    I have been trying for 2 days now to register Adobe Digital Editions. See error below
    Please HELP!!

    THe e_auth_not_ready can be fixed by deleting your authorization (yes you have one even though it doesn't show) and then reauthorizing. After launching ADE hit CONTROL+SHIFT+D and say yes to delete authoriztion. Then go back in and reqauthorize your computer. You may want to also connect any devices and delete and reauthorize them.
    I found this in one of the forums.

  • I can´t download digital edition on my notebook!

    Can you help me, i can´t download the digital edition. a window ist opening with run us.. and i must give a password ???

    It is a possiblity that the laptop overheated causing the shutdown. Pick up a can of compressed air and clean all ports,vents,etc thoroughly to ensure good airflow. You could even direct a small fan at the laptop while trying to run Recovery again.
    Another possibilty is hard drive failing. Use Diagnostics to test it and the memory. You should have Diagnostics in BIOS (F10 at power on) or System Diagnostics (F2 at power on)

  • Can't get digital editions to connect to new nook

    how do i get digital editions to recognize our new nook?

    Is this a dedicated ereader, or a tablet with ereader capabilities.
    A dedicated ereader should show up as a device in the left pane of ADE (Digital Editions).
    You must then register the device,  Make sure ADE itself is authorized, then use 'menu/Help/Authorize Device' ('Library/Authorize Device' on the older more reliable ADE1.7.2)
    Most tablets don't get seen by ADE at all. 
    You need to install an Adobe DRM compatible app (Bluefire seems most reliable, there are also Aldiko and Overdrive) and register that with your Adobe ID.
    Then transfer books from then computer using file manager (Windows Explorer, Mac Finder) to the tablet which should show up as a mounted drive when plugged in by USB.

  • Unable to Activate Digital Editions 1.7

    I found a posting for the 1.5 version and verified the time/date/zone are correct on the PC that has never had this software installed. One curious note is that I am not seeing a pop-up from the firewall to activate.
    Any other tips (home user as the corporate folks would flog me if I installed this on their PC)?
    Text of Error on WinXP platform:
    "E_ADEPT_CLIENT ActivationServiceInfo EXCEPTION Error%20#1009 RESP"

    We have noticed this problem (error 2032) on some of our PC's.  The problem looks to be linked to the proxy server used for connecting to the Internet blocking access to the Adobe activation server. The details of the proxy server are either automatically detected or held in a configuration script (a .pac file).
    In internet explorer, go to Tools -> Internet Options.
    Click 'Connections' tab, and then click on 'Lan settings'.
    This should show you how you are connecting to the LAN and hence internet.  It will either be 'Automatically detected' or referenced through a .pac file.
    Our problem was a .pac file which referenced a proxy server which was blocking access to the Adobe activation server.  We just changed to use a different .pac file which referenced a different proxy server which did allow access, and the problem was solved.
    Either way, your IT department should be able to unblock access on the relevant proxy server and you should be able to read your documents.
    Hope this helps.

  • MSI H67MA ED55 - Can't activate crossfire EDITED

    Hi, I know that crossfire is not officially supported on MSI H67MA ED55 but I see that some H67 board from other manufacturer (like Gigabyte) can enabled it.

    Thx guys for the answer.

    Can this (slot) be used by other types of PCIe cards then?
    To my understanding, with a VGA filling the primary 16X slot, the second slot will only support a 1X device. If your add-in cards are 1x, then they are supposed to work. If the primary drops to 8x, then the other slot should also cover up to an 8X add-in. But it is not real clear about that.

  • Can't run Digital Editions 4.0.

    Have tried uninstall, reboot, install to no avail. From my Visual Studio debugger I get: An unhandled Microsoft .NET Framework exception occurred in DigitalEditions.exe[1576]

    Please update to extended .NET Framework 4 or 4.5.  It should work after this.
    However, I am not sure if this update is available for XP Pro.
