Can't authorize computer in Digital Editions 2.0.

Cant authorize computer in Digital Editions 2.0.  Message hangs at Please wait while your computer is being authorized.  Windows Vista 32  firewire walls disabled.  Tried removing and reinstalling program same issue continued.

Not sure exactly why you got this issue, but one possible solution (solution to lots of problems) .....
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.

  • How can I authorize my new HP computer for digital editions?

    How can I authorize my new HP computer for digital editions/

    First download Adobe Digital Editions from: Download | Adobe Digital Editions.
    After that follow these steps:
    If you aren't prompted to authorize ADE the first time you open it, you can go to Help > Authorize Computer to start the process manually.
    If you have an Adobe ID, enter it along with your password.
    If you do not have an Adobe ID, click Create an Adobe ID to make one on Adobe's website.
    Once you're done, return to the "Computer Authorization" dialog box and enter your Adobe ID and password.
    Click Authorize. Your computer is now authorized with your Adobe ID.
    IMPORTANT: If you choose to authorize your computer without an ID, you will still be able to view eBooks on your computer. However, you will not be able to transfer or download those titles to other devices.

  • Can i leave the adobe digital edition ID, authorized on my PC?

    Can i leave the adobe digital edition ID, authorized on my PC? Will it do someting to the PC if i leave it in authorized mode? Or must i erase it?

    Hi,
    In order to fix the problem you may follow steps as given below.
    Solution 1) 1) Open Digital Editions.
                        2) Connect the Reader
                        5) There you will find a new drive created similar to C or D drive under "My computer".
                        6) Open the Readers Drive and you will find a folder with name "adobe.digital.editions".
                        7) Delete this folder and plug off and re plug in the Reader.
                        8) Authorize Reader from the same Adobe ID which you used to Authorize Adobe Digital Editions.
    ..                  9) Now try to transfer books to your Reader
    Solution 2) Modify the manifest.xml file located in C:\Usres\Username\My Documents\My Digital Editions:
    1) Quit Digital Editions
    2) Make a backup copy of the manifest.xml (call it something like manifest.good)
    3) Open manifest.xml in notepad
    4) It will appears as one big long line of xml, and you are looking for a tag called  start at the begginning of this
        and select until you the end of the tag that looks called </de:deviceID>
    5) If you have attached more than one Reader there may be multiple of these.  Delete all of them to make sure.
    6) Save the file (manifest.xml) and quit out of notepad
    7) Ensure you have the Reader plugged in
    8) Launch Digital Editions
    9) The Device Setup Assitant should come up.
      a) Do NOT click on the "Don't ask again for this device" checkbox.
      b) Do click on the "Authorize Device" button.
    I hope this will help you.
    Regards
    Rizwan

  • How do I change authorization in adobe digital editions using windows vista

    How do I change authorization in adobe digital editions using windows vista?
    When I try ctrl alt delete, I get the blue windows log in sceen.  How do I get past the log in screen to use the ctrl alt delete to change authorization for the adobe digital editions screen.

    Adobe apps can be reset to their factory defaults by using Ctrl+Alt+Shift, not Del. The rest doesn't really make any sense since you did not provide any details and authorizations can't be changed that way, anyway. If you want to transfer books to other devices you need to contact the vendors to release the DRM/ provide a new download and if you want to change the registered ID, you need to contact support or create a completely new account, which in turn will require you to buy your DRM managed books again/ get a new download as well.

  • I need to have my authorizations reset for Digital Editions, but cannot contact anyone at Adobe.

    I need to have my authorizations reset for Digital Editions, but cannot contact anyone at Adobe. Would like to purchase new devices for my reading, ubt need reset before I can.  How do I get in touch with someone at Adobe.  Everything on web site just goes in circles. 

    Adobe Live Chat: http://www.adobe.com/support/chat/ivrchat.html,
    or as a slight short cut try http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?product=digital-editions&topic=using-my-product-or-ser vice
    Click on 'I still need help' and then you should see 'Chat with an Agent' at the bottom of the page.
    'Ask our experts' will indeed just lead you back to this forum.
    Sometimes you will get ‘Sorry! All agents are busy— please check back soon.’
    Don’t refresh the page, just hang on and it should eventually go to ‘Chat Now, an agent is available’.
    They can reset your authorizations, and then you must reauthorize any devices you still need.
    (Unfortunately, Adobe haven’t got round to an admin website for viewing and editing authorizations.)
    Some of the representatives haven't been properly trained and don't know what to do (and claim there is nothing they can do);
    in that case the only way seems to be to give up that chat and try another session hoping for a properly trained representative.
    If your problem is with another device using Overdrive, Bluefire, Aldiko or similar third party app, it is recommended not to mention that app when on the chat, just mention that you have run out of authorizations  (E_ACT_TOO_MANY_ACTIVATIONS) .  Thanks to AJP_Bear for that tip.
     

  • Problem authorising my computer for digital editions:

    whenever I want to authorise my computer in digital editions is get: E_AUTH_NOT_READY
    How do I solve this problem??

    A common reason is that ADE has got authorizations confused.
    Use ctrl-shift-D to ADE (cmd-shift-D on Mac)
    Restart ADE
    Try again to authorize.

  • Why can't I install Adobe Digital Editions on my iPad?

    Why can't I install Adobe Digital Editions on my iPad?

    I have the same question.
    IPad Air 2, iOS 8.1.2. I ordered some ebooks that required the download of Adobe Digital Editions. I select the supplied link to the Adobe site, select download, and I am given the option of windows or Mac OS. I wandered through the site and even googled an iOS version with no luck. I thought maybe the Mac OS version might be universal to apple products so I downloaded it and tried to open it in One Note, One Drive, and Google My Drive with no luck. The .dmg file is not recognized. So, I'm back to looking for an iOS version. Is there one?

  • How can I authorize my PC computer for Digital Editions after I have accidentally declined authorization?

    I have used Digital Editions for about a year without any trouble. Today I was asked to "authorize" my computer. I declined and now am now prevented from copying my books to my e-reader. How can I fix this? This is a real drag.  

    I have this exact same problem, and I have assignments due that depend on accessing these books.

  • 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.
