Can't open my ebook (VE error 59)!

When I'm trying to open my ebook (bought from amazon) I just can't add it to the Library.
Only this message shows up:
Adobe DRM Error
System: 8
State: 4
Code: 59
Class: 1
Message: VE error 59

Where is the DRM key stored?
My three-year-old PC developed some intermittent problems so I reformatted my hard drive and re-installed Windows and all my other software. I activated Acrobat Reader using the same NET passport as previously, but my ebooks are now unreadable! The system reports that I am using a different machine.
Adobe Support reset my activation account and I then re-activated Acrobat Reader. This did not fix the problem.
Before wiping my hard drive, I made a disk image of my previous installation. I am able to re-install this image and copy any file or registry entry which I require. Somewhere within this backup must be the DRM key which enabled me to read my ebooks. If I can locate it, I can copy it to my new installation and fix the problem.
Does anyone know where this file is located?

  • I can't open my ebooks which are in PDF

    I bought $350 worth of ebooks from ebooks.com so I could read them on my bebook (mybebook.com) and the files don't open on my bebook, so I tried to open them on my computer so I could convert them to another format, but my computer can't open the files. This is what happens:
    1) A window comes up that says: This document can't be opened because it's ownership hasn't been established on this computer. But I bought the books on this computer! There are two choices that I can click: 1) I own it and copied it to this computer or restored it from a backup and 2) Someone else gave it to me and I would like to own it. I click number one and then click on a button that says "establish ownership".
    2) Then another window comes up that says: You will now be taken to the adobe DRM activator website where you will get instructions on how to reactivate your Acrobat or Adobe reader to allow for sharing and restoring of documents. You must be connected to the internet for this. If not, cancel and try again later.
    3) So I click OK and am taken to an Adobe page that says:
    Here's the problem and how to solve it:
    You have tried to open an Digital Edition that was downloaded to another computer. You can open such a document on two computers only when you have activated Adobe Reader or Acrobat on both computers using the same Microsoft .NET Passport or Adobe ID.
    Problem: This computer and the computer to which the document was downloaded were activated using different .NET Passports or Adobe IDs.
    Solution: Return to the retailer, library, or other location where you acquired the document and obtain permission to open it on this computer.
    I wrote ebooks.com and told them what was going on also, but I don't know if they will be able to help me because I downloaded the books to this computer.
    Does anyone know what I can do to be able to open these PDF files?
    Thanks,

    David,
    I have tried with Adobe myself but to no avail.  They are inconsiderate, and just downright rude and will not support the issues.  They claim it's because it's a free product. 
    I am forced to keep an old computer for all of the books that I brought only because they will not open anywhere else.  I have seen alot of crap on the internet about how to conver them but none seem to be easy or successful.  I have alot of ebooks that just will not open anywhere else but that one pc.  I have tried just about everything.  I wish there was an easy hack to this issue.  I hate adobe.  I can't wait until there is some kind of law suit against them.   I will definately take part in every way I can.  Sorry for not having any better info on this.

    Subject: I can't open my ebooks which are in PDF
    I'm having the same problem and I'm in my third iteration with Adobe Tech Support via e-mail.  They couldn't fix it and sent me to this forum to see if anyone else had fixed the problem themselves.
    So does anyone have a solution yet?  Can these files be converted to regular pdf files that don't require Digital Editions?  It's a nice interface but the program doesn't work correctly.
    Adobe's Digital Editions now prevents me from reading 4 out of 7 of my e-books.  Moreover, I can't believe there's no one at Adobe that can fix this problem.  Just as surprising is how little they seem to care.
    I would appreciate some help if anyone has an answer.  This is really disheartening.
    Thanks in advance,
    David

  • I can't open Itunes due to error -45075. What do I do?

    I can't open Itunes due to error -45075. What do I do?

    I Had this problem along with the error message that it's missing the driver GNSDK_DSP.DLL. I am Windows XP and fixed the error by going to Start>My Computer>Add or Remove Programs
    When the Add or Remove programs list is "populated", Find iTunes on it. Click the link that says "For more information" and the iTunes box will expand. You will see a button that says "Repair" and it says to reinstall the program if it is not working correctly, use the "Repair" button. I clicked the Repair button and it automatically started the reinstall. When all the progress bars disappear (it doesn't really give you any other indication that its done) click the "close" button and try to open iTunes again. It worked first time for me. I also saw another forum where someone said it worked for the other Windows versions by following the same route, just that in other windows versions it might be "Computer" instead of "My Computer" and the Add or Remove Programs function is also called something else. Hope this helps somebody having this problem. It drove me crazy finding the answer, but the fix was super simple once I found out what to do.

    no inspection lot can be opened for this material error is coming during GR. what is the cause for this and how to solve it. please suggest me
    regards,

    Hi,
    i think you have maintained the quality view and activated the inspection. but you have not created any inspection lot task list for the material and plant. thsi you can create through QP01 there maintain the material and plant. then enter in inspection plan give usage 5 and status 4. save it and try to check it with QA32 and see the lot. it should be released then only you can give usage decision.

    Try resetting the pse 2 preferences and see if that clears things up.

  • Can not open photshop CC 2014     ERROR  could not initialize Photoshop because of a program error

    Hi
    I can not open Photshop CC 2014
    ERROR
    could not initialize Photoshop because of a program error

    I've had the same error happen to me.  I deleted the preferences file, updated JAVA, etc.  none of which worked.
    I've spent days systematically working to isolate the variable that seems to make Photoshop work one day and "not initialize" the next.  I simply can't afford to stop work when Photoshop doesn't want to initialize due to: PSOWLListenerProxyBaseCocoa.mm : 52 : REQUIRE failed
    Apologies, but I REQUIRE YOU TO INITIALIZE!
    I think that I've isolated the problem.  I have a dual monitor set-up.  Sometimes I use the second monitor and sometimes I don't, sometimes monitor 2 is powered on and sometimes it's not.  It's really the only thing with any variance on my system.  I disconnected my second monitor.  Then I clicked the Photoshop icon and the program opened...
    I am running OS X 10.9 and Photoshop CS 5.1
    There appears to be a link between Photoshop not wanting to initialize and Graphics Card / Monitors. 

  • Can't open Lightroom.  Getting Error message:  Trying to open Lightroom.  Get ERROR message

    I can't open my Lightroom.  I keep on getting the message:
    Trying to open Lightroom.  Get ERROR message:
    Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit.
    Lightroom will attempt to fix this problem the next time it launches.
    This has happened before. 
    I also can't get my Plug-ins (like Topaz and onOne) to work within Photoshop CC and Lightroom.
    Not the first time this has happened.
    Any suggestions?

    I apologize. I should've told you to delete the folder with the same name as your catalog. So you want to delete the folder named Lightroom 5 Catalog Previews.lrdata.

  • TS1424 I can't open iTunes. Get error message "the file iTunes library.itl cannot be opened because it was created by a newer version of iTunes"

    I cannot open itunes.  Getting error message: "the file iTunes library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes"
    What do I need to do so I dont lose all my loaded music, etc.?
    Thanks

    If you still have an issue you may have to see about using the iTunes version (application) included with Snow Leopard 10.6 from the installer or an another one if available online, and see if that will install.
    Sometimes you may have uninstall the bits left in your system by the earlier (or later) iTunes installers; as they all leave a trace and these can stop a different version of iTunes from being installed.
    Not sure if the following site/link will tell the method...

  • Can't open Indesign file. Error message says I need to upgrade plug-ins?

    I created a business card for my husband from my indesign 5.5 version. I haven't upgraded my version since creating the file and for some reason I can't open the file. I get the error message 'Cannot open "Business Card - Ryan.indd". Please upgrade your plug-ins to their latest versions, or upgrade to the latest version of Adobe InDesign.'
    When I look at the business card file with finder it says it was created with InDesign 5.5. When I view my InDesign application through my finder applications it says I have InDesign 5.5 so I'm not sure why this error message is saying to upgrade my version of InDesign.

    I wish I had a dollar for every person who claimed there was no way a file was saved in a later version only to find out it was.
    If you post a link to it someone here will save it back for you.

  • Can't open my IBA project: error parasing document index: invalid character in attribute value

    Hi guys,
    I am new of iBooks Author and I am not HTML code savvy (expect the very basics). I have to send an iBooks for an University exam and I can't open my file anymore.
    I was working on it since Saturday, I saved many times and I have quit the iBooks Author and rebooted my iMac few moments ago. There were no crashes.
    The project is a iBook with pictures, videos and some Tumult Hype animations. It is 248Mb.
    Now I can't open the file (but I can see it in quick view). The error message is in the subject, but here it is again:
    "Progetto iBooks" couldn't be opened. Error parsing document index: invalid character in attribute value.
    Now, I have to send the project today (here in Italy it is now 7:10 am) and so I am kind of desperate.
    Any suggestion?
    I am already working on making a new ibook, but if someone could give me a workaround to fix it and open it on iBooks I would be extremely grateful.
    Best regards,
    Sebastiano

    Hi Sebastiano,
    Did you ever get any answer? I have the same problem and now have to work from an old version again (good thing I had backup one manually!)
    Thx
