Cant transfer to sony ebook

Hi, I installed editions and successfully downloaded a book from waterstones. Connected Sony Ebook reader to my Mac and it shows up as an additional drive.
If I drag the .epub book across it successfully shows up in the ebook menu. But when I try to read it I gaet 'Protected Page'.
Any ideas how I authorise the Reader?
Thanks in advance

Sony doesn't support the PRS-505 on Mac OS.. no drivers. So we don't either.
Please see this technote (which will point you to a potential workaround)

  • Library Books in ADE, but cant transfer to Sony Reader

    My husband just purchased the Sony Pocket Edition for me and I have been able to download and read free ebooks from feebooks.com, but when I went to check some out from the Ohio Ebook project, that is when I started having issues.
    The files are .acsm.  I can view them in ADE, can see my reader plugged in and is listed in ADE (never did ask me to authorize it, but maybe that was because I already had done so in Sony Redaer Library?)
    Anyway, now I have my library ebooks checked out, sitting in ADE, but can NOT for the life of me get them to my sony pocket edition.  What am I doing incorrectly?
    Thank you for any help- it is greatly apprecited

    Found out what I was doing incorrectly. I was trying to transfer the .ascm file and did not realize that a new folder opened elsewhere called "My Digital Editions" where the library ebooks PDFs were. 

  • How do I get my Sony ebook Reader to show up ("be recognized") in the top left corner??

    How do I get my Sony ebook reader to show up ("be recognized") in the top left corner of the window.  It never shows up and I cannot transfer books from my Mac computer to ADE.  I am using Sony Reader Library but it is developing problems!!  Can anyone assist??

    No solution yet.  One would think that Adobe would recognize that several complaints  have been reported on this problem.  Obviously, nobody knows how to fix it!!  Sorry I can't be helpful!!

  • Cant Transfer songs HELP!!!!

    i cant transfer song to my ipod mini, it says it can not read or written in the disc. In the itunes there exist a small lock just beside the bar showing the capacity left in the ipod.
    HELP!! what should i do??

    "i cant transfer song to my ipod mini, it says it can not read or written in the disc"
    See if this helps: "-36 or "Disk cannot be read from or written to" when syncing iPod or "Firmware update failure" error when updating or restoring iPod
    "In the itunes there exist a small lock just beside the bar showing the capacity left in the ipod."
    A lock symbol at the bottom of the screen and grey text when you look at the content and simply shows that your iPod is set to "automatically update songs and playlists". . If you want to access your iPod directly, play it through your iTunes, connect it to a second computer etc. you just need to change the update method to "Manually manage songs and Playlists" in the iPod preferences. For more detail see this tutorial: Managing Your Songs Manually
    One thing to be aware of with manually updating is that the iPod also has to be manually ejected before the "Do Not Disconnect" message will go away. Safely disconnect iPod
    For info: iPod 101
    The iPod offers three ways to transfer music from your computer. You can select one of the following update modes from the iPod Preferences menu in iTunes (Edit=>Preferences=>'iPod' tab):
    1) Automatically update all songs and playlists. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method.
    2) Automatically update selected playlists only. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to the iPod when you connect it to the computer.
    3) Manually manage songs and playlists. You can also choose to transfer music to the iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to the iPod.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Do you mean you can't stream movies etc. You can only play media over Airplay, you can't share data from other apps.

  • I can recharge my Zen Micro VIA USB, but I cant transfer songs....

    Hello,
    Using the USB Port on my PC, I can successfully recharge my Zen Micro. But for some reason, I cant transfer music to it. Whenever I go to the "Zen Micro Media Explorer", I always get an explorer error for some reason, and it says "Zen Micro Not Connected"
    I try other programs, such as WindowsMedia Player, real player, and NOTMAD Explorer, and they cant connect to the Zen Micro either (player not connected error)
    Does anyboy know why? And can anybody please help.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for all the input.
    I've Solved the problem!
    I called up Creative Tech Support, and they said to reinstall the software, which I did. Now it works perfectly. Thanks for all the support though. I think Creative's tech support is good, not as bad as people claim it to be.

  • My mac disk is full and i cant transfer files from Mac to USB. saying the format is not good, how can i change the format and what happened to the files i have on USB?

    my mac disk is full and i cant transfer files from Mac to USB. saying the format is not good, how can i change the format and what happened to the files i have on USB?

    Once something similar happened to me. The external drives I had set up for FCP to use for some reason were not mounted, and FCP put all its render files on the main drive and I couldn't find them anywhere.
    Go to applications, and control-click (and hold down) on your FCP icon; you should get a pop up menu that says "show package contents". Select that, select the "contents" folder, then the "mac OS" folder. See if your quicktime file is in there, or if you've got render files in the "render" folder or audio render files in the "audio render" folder that don't belong there.
    That's where FCP sticks stuff when your documents FCP project folders are not available or when external drives you've selected aren't available.

  • My iphone has 837 songs that i cant transfer to itunes. How do I do this to get them on my new iphone?

    I have songs on my old phone that I cant transfer to Itunes in order to load them to my new phone. What do I do?

  • Hi there , I have Ipad 2. just upgraded to OS 5.1 and now cant transfer any videos to it. videos already stored can be played but when i try to copy any new video, it says that the video cannot be played by Ipad.I have tried mp4, mov, m4v but nothing play

    hi there , I have Ipad 2. just upgraded to OS 5.1 and now cant transfer any videos to it. videos already stored can be played but when i try to copy any new video, it says that the video cannot be played by Ipad.I have tried mp4, mov, m4v but nothing plays.

    Log in to the Developer forum. You will find instructions on how to install the lastest beta. Your problem is the beta you have installed has expired. All of them did on October 5; you will find hundreds of threads discussing this. If you have a beta it is assumed that you will continue as a beta tester, so a simple update using iTunes will not work.
    If you no longer want to be a beta tester install the GM 7.0.2 by restoring from iTunes using DFU mode.

  • HT4191 cant transfer notes from mi ipad

    I bougtrh the new ipad mini and i want to sinc my notes but i can`t, i have 2 notes acounts in mi ipad 2 icloud and ipad, i already select notes in icloun on the ipad
    help i cant transfer notes from my ipad 2 to my mac

    Notes, at least in my experience, go into the notes part of my outlook. I sync my calendar and notes to the outlook on my computer.
    You would set that up under the 'info' part of iTunes. You'll see the option when you have your iPad connected to your computer.

  • Since upgrade of aperture, my photos from a year ago are not in library.  On time machine, they are there, but I cant transfer them to todays aperture library because it says the old version is not supported.  Please help!!

    Since the upgrade of Aperture, my photos from a year ago are not showing up.  When I go to time machine, they show up in the library, but I cant transfer them to my todays aperture because it says the old program needs to be updated.  How do I get my pics from a year ago transferred to todays Aperture?  Please help!!!!

    You will be restoring the old Aperture library from TM, having it on the Desktop is fine.
    Once the restore is finished you will have the old Aperture library in that folder. Now you want to open this library by double clicking it (the library). This will open Aperture on it and Aperture will  tell you the library needs to be upgraded. Let Aperture upgrade the library.
    Once the Library is upgraded to the latest version of Aperture you can do want you want with it. Once you have gotten to this point if you still need help post back.

  • Why is ADE not recognizing my Sony ebook?

    Why is ADE not recognizing my Sony ebook?  I connected the device prior to opening the application.

    Nikon D810 RAW format support was added in ACR 8.6 you need Photoshop CS6 or newer.  Or you can create DNG file for your NEF files and convert then with older versions of ACR.

    You can follow this method if you have the recovery cds with you.Use Lenovo's secure data disposal and wipe the entire HDD clean, then use your discs to restore to the default factory settings.

  • (sony) `Ebook Library' to `Adobe Digital  Editions'

    Searching here for ways to convert an (sony) `Ebook Library' format (*.lrx) to something the Adobe Digital Editions reader can read, I find long threads about converting the other way (adobe to sony) but not the reverse.
    I have both freebie readers and have found the `Ebook Library' offered for download by sony, has a more extensive library easily accessed thru the reader in the genre I like to read (crime fiction/mystery).
    I'm sure the same stuff is available somewhere on the net for the Adobe Digital Editions reader but with the `Ebook Library' I haven't had to search, just use there library.
    The trouble is the reader part of `Ebook Library' sucks. Its pretty primitive compared to the adobe DE. For starters I can't reduce the size of type characters below a rather huge size. Even the smallest setting in the reader results in rather huge type. The reader is cumbersome and clunky in many other ways as well.
    I vastly prefer reading with the Adobe DE. But do not like having to put so much time and energy into finding the books I want to download in Adobe DE format. Jumping around thru the various links I have for ebooks to find what I want instead of using the `Ebooks Library' to find it in one search/purchase combined move.
    So how can I read the stuff downloaded in *.lrx format in Adobe DE. There is no intent to circumvernt DRM or some other sleaze... I don't mind paying for the books... I just want to read them in the software of choice, Adobe DE

    While I'm glad that you like ADE, unfortunately as you have undoubtedly already figured out we only support PDF and ePub for viewing and do not support viewing of Sony's .lrf (unencrypted) or .lrx (DRM protected). I don't think that will change anytime soon (but I'm just an engineer and have been wrong about product directions plenty of times).
    For non DRM Sony files there are plenty of convertors out there to use - although most of them focus on converting to .lrf so you can place the file on a Sony Reader. A good general resource for conversion tools, how well they work etc is the MobileRead Format Conversion forum
    Other than that, the best I can do for you is to suggest some additional links to add to your various link you already have:
    Feedbooks - provides free access to public domain material in a variety of formats including ePub http://www.feedbooks.com
    A Crime/Mystery filtered link:
    http://www.feedbooks.com/discover/list/books?type=Crime%2FMystery
    ebooks.com - offers a wide varieties of books
    http://www.ebooks.com
    (look for their fiction/crime section - they don't have a separate mystery section)
    Good Luck
