Cannot install Digital Edition on iMac

I went to the ADOBE web page to download the "Adobe Digital Edition" at http://www.adobe.com/products/digitaleditions/?promoid=DTEIO
After I click "install" at the "Adobe Digital Edition Installer" window, I got a new installer window to ask me to click "yes" for installation.
However, there is no response by clicking "yes", and it all stopped there without progress. Even gone through the trouble shooting instructions, it still not working.
Please help. Thanks. My computer is the new 2011 version of iMac.

I am running Lion on my MacBook Air and it is working fine. I had been concerned I wouldn't be able to download my library books but I did that on the weekend and had no problem.
I am using Adobe Digital Editions 1.7.2 on Mac OS 10.7.3.

Cannot install Digital Editions

Trying to install digital editions onto a PC with Windows 7. If I select to do it as "current user" it claims "unable to elevate to administrative rights, error 6;" if I try to do it as Administrator it asks for a password without specifying which of the hundreds of passwords I have I am to use. If I use the password for the Adobe account I recently created, it claims the information is not correct. Why should a simple installation be so complicated?

Thanks, but that seems like a pretty obscure password, created, in this
case, some 4 years ago and used again since. Do you know how one finds
one's Windows 7 password?

imac specs:

Tell us more about the disk and partition onto which you are trying to install Mountain Lion:
Open Disk Utility (in Applications > Utilities). The left column should show your disk with its partition(s) indented below it:
How is the disk (top level container) formatted according to Disk Utility:
* What Partiton Map Scheme? (Should be "GUID Partition Table".)
* How many partitions? (Should be 1 unless you have a Boot Camp partition.)
How is the partition (lower level container) formatted according to Disk Utility? (Should be "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)".)

How can I finish installing Digital Editions 1.7.2, and save my library and annotations?

In order to migrate my library from my old PC, the first thing I did was to install Digital Editions version 1.7.2 on my new PC. I couldn't install version 3 right away because then I'd lose thousands of annotations. I have to figure out what additional steps are needed to complete the migration and in what order.
I will copy all files in the \My Digital Editions directory from the old PC to the new PC. I also have to be sure the new PC can find my PDF files and notes in the directories on my new PC. This requires editing the MANIFEST XML file to change the PDF directory locations. I hope that's the only XML editing I need to do, since I don't know XML.
I understand from another user (sjpt) that I may need to "deregister ADE on the new machine (ctrl-shift-D) and then reregister it." That may be due to Digital Rights Management. So I will activate my new computer with Digital Editions using an ID. I expect to do that step last, since I have just a few books with DRM.
I plan to perform these steps in the order I've described them. I think I've identified all the steps needed to get Digital Editions 1.7.2 working. I'd welcome advice from other users who have experience in migrating their libraries. Thanks
P.S. Documentation on Digital Editions seems pretty minimal, so I'm wondering if Adobe is phasing out the product.

You can start by asking in the Digital Editions forum, Adobe Digital Editions. This is the Reader one.

I cannot get Digital Editions to see and authorize my sony reader PRS-600

I cannot get Digital Editions to see and authorize my sony reader PRS-600. I am running windows Vista. I am registered and my PC is authorized, but I cannot get DE to authorize my reader. Any ideas?

Hi
Thank you so much to Reg for his answer to the above subject. I have been reading
/ searching / reading at both Adobe sites, Sony sites, library sites etc. for almos
t one month to find a solution to this problem.
I couldn't imagine that we had bought a device (Sony 650 Touch) that did not hold the correct software nor the correct manual. Unbelievable.
To those who come after me... go to THIS SITE http://ebookstore.sony.com/download/
and download the application for PC (top left) orMAC (top right). It takes time, but it works !
I'm just so happy now !!

Acsm files will not open in Adobe Digital Editions on iMac 10.7.2. I can still open them successfully on my Dell PC.

Mid November I purchased an iMac Lion and downloaded Adobe Digital editions for Macs. The download went smoothly but I cannot get the ebooks from my library to open in Adobe Digital Editions. I still have my Dell PC and can (and unfortunately still have to) download the ebooks into ADE and from there to iTunes and onto my iPad. I've uninstalled and reinstalled ADE and it doesn't appear to be the problem. The downloaded ascm books appear to be in the top right corner of the toolbar but just will not open in ADE. ADE is supposed to open automatically with the book download, and does on the PC, but not on the iMac. I've even tried dragging and dropping the files into ADE but nothing works. Does anyone have the solution? Thank you.

Please have a look at the similar thread, Authorizing my nook. Hope the solution mentioned in this thread solves your problem.

How to install Digital Editions correctly?

I've tried downloading Digital Editions several times, but still cannot download ebooks from the Library. I never had a window open to ask for authorization for my computer. Tried to follow several sets of instructions (See below) , but am not successful. Don't know what to do next. Help.
Part II: Adobe Digital Editions
1. Using your home computer, go to the library’s website: www.sdcl.org. Click on
the “downloads” link on the left side of the page, select “ebooks,” and then select
“OverDrive.”
2. On the left, there is a purple bar. Scroll down past the browsing options until you
see links for “OverDrive Media Console” and “Adobe Digital Editions”. Click on
“Adobe Digital Editions”. Click again on “Download Adobe Digital Editions” (there
is a brown icon with an open book).
3. A new window will open up and take you to Adobe’s site. Follow the directions
from Adobe to download and install Adobe Digital Editions.
4. Adobe Digital Editions will open after it has been installed on your computer. The
first time it opens, it will prompt you to authorize your computer with Adobe. You
will need an Adobe ID to do this. If you already have an Adobe ID, you can enter
it now. If you do not, click on the link provided to create an Adobe ID. Your
computer will open a web page to Adobe’s site and you can follow the
instructions to create an ID.
5. Once you have authorized your computer, you will be able to check out and
download titles.

Hi,
The steps you are following are for ADE version 1.7.2 and the current version is ADE 2.0.
Please follow these steps to authorize ADE 2.0.
1. Launch ADE 2.0.
2. NAvigate to Help menu > Authorize Computer.
3. Enter your Adobe ID and password to authorize computer.
Regards,
Yuvraj.

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

Having challenges installing Digital Editions 2.0 and having the program initialize correctly.

I need to install Adobe Digital Editions (ADE) 2.0 so I can download books for my daughter's Nook from our local library.
I have tried installing ADE 2.0 way too many times to absolutely no avail. After downloading the ADE 2.0 install program, I have tried installing with Norton virus and firewall software turned off, turned on, restarting my computer after an ADE 2.0 install attempts with virus protection off and on, and everytime I have tried to do anything with the supposedly installed ADE 2.0, it crashes and Microsoft opens its error mesaging window because ADE 2.0 has encountered a problem.
On a couple times I have also received this error message:
Digital Editions.exe - Application Error Instructions at "0x8514c483" referenced memory at "0x8514c483". The memory could not be "read". Click "ok" to terminate the program.
I have also re-downloaded the install program numerous times under different anti virus software operating scenarios (software enabled/disabled, etc), and everytime after the installation is complete, the program crashes. Each time an install attempt failed, I uninstalled the program and went through a full ADE 2.0 install. Sometimes still using the same install program and also after re-downloading the ADE 2.0 install program. Everything I have tried has failed.
I am also using an older Windows XP PC, but despite being a relatively older computer, this install and initialization challenge should not be occurring.
Short of finding a copy of the ADE 1.7 version and seeing if that will work (was suggested by user sjgt when replying to a post by su-anster on 26 Dec at 0358), does anyone have any suggestions? This should not be such a challenge. Thx

Thanks for our reply. I already have installed Overdrive Media Console
without any challenge. What I have ended up doing as a quick fix is I
located and downloaded the ADE 1.7 version and after doing so, everything is
working fine. Obviously I am not using Adobe's latest and greatest ADE 2.0
version with whatever associated bells and whistles, but ADE 1.7 is doing
what I need to do to and that is allow me to download Adobe Epub files from
our local library and to create an interface to my daughter's Nook. If
using the 3M Cloud app provides some greater functionality I might try that
as well, but my problem is not connectivity with my daughter's Nook. It is
ADE 2.0 not installing and initializing on my computer. I never got to the
point of trying to download files because ADE 2.0 was constantly crashing
when I opened the supposedly, correctly installed program.
