Digital Editions scanning ebooks nothing to do with it
I use Digital Editions to copy borrowed library books to my eBook reader (Cybook Opus, but I don't think that is relevant).
There are also many other books on the device, which have nothing to do with Digital Editions.
When I start Digital Editions and connect the device, it spends ages looking around books stored on the device
outside the Digital Editions directory, and making lots of annotation files which have no value to me at all.
Meanwhile, it refuses to get on with its job of copying my library books to the device.
Is there any way of preventing this antisocial behaviour by Digital Editions?
Let's start with your understanding of what ADE is supposed to do.
ADE does several things, and a description of what it does is included in
the HELP section. It will interface with sources for ebooks, interact with
certain ereaders listed in its list of supported devices
(HERE<http://blogs.adobe.com/digitalpublishing/supported-devices>),
and your Cyborg ereader is not on the list.
I am somewhat confused by your statements concerning ADE's management of
ebooks on your "device". ADE runs on your computer, not your ereader, so I
don't know how it would be interacting with the ebooks on your device.
Since the Cyborg is not a supported ereader, is some software loaded on
that device labelled 'Digital Editions'? If so, it is not from Adobe. I
have seen some postings that tell us Digital Editions is stored on their
ereader, but that is false.
Library ebooks have digital rights assigned to them by the publisher,
distributor, library or author. ADE (on your computer) checks the settings
to confirm that the permissions will allow an ebook to be copied to an
ereader. If the permissions will not allow that to happen, the ebook can't
be copied, and that sounds like what may be happening to you.
All in all, ADE is really not guilty of 'antisocial behavior'. It's a case
of unwinding what's going on and trying to figure out what to do about it.
Hope this helps!

Can't transfer eBooks from Adobe Digital Editions to eBook Library
Everything worked fine initially, 5 books purchased from Waterstones and transfered fine.
Since then I have purchased 2 books and downloaded a free eBook from the Adobe site, and none will work outside of Adobe DE.
When I try to import them into eBook Library I am told "This eBook cannot be transferred because it is authorized to another user.
I have tried removing both programs from my PC and re-installing - this has made no difference.I am having exactly the same problem with Waterstones books.
When I open the book in Adobe DE, click on reading and then item info I get the usual publishers information and an error message:
"Document contains a resource which is too long".
I have had no problems transferring books that I have purchased from the WHSmiths eBookShop. -
Digitizing Progressive scan footage shot in PAL with panasonicDVX100AE
Hi,
Does anyone have an idea if i can use a different camera (for instance the Canon XM2 Mini DV) for digitizing this material into FCP or do i need special equipement for it since i can not use the original Panasonic camera for digitizing anymore?
footage shot in pal progressive scan mode.
please help...

Shane's Stock Answer #2:
ONLY JUDGE THE QUALITY OF YOUR MATERIAL ON AN EXTERNAL PAL MONITOR, OR AT LEAST A TV.
1. Disable overlays on the canvas
2. Make sure you've rendered everything (no green bars at the top of the timeline
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=24787
DV footage requires large amounts of data and many computations. In order to maintain frame rate and be viewable at a normal size, only about one-fourth of the DV data is used in displaying the movie to the screen. However, the DV footage is still at full quality, and is best viewed thru a TV or PAL monitor routed thru your camera or deck.

It is best to use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed a maximum file size of 1 MB.

Adobe Digital Editions 2.0 for Windows with Kobo Desktop reader.
I need to transfer PDF files to my Kobo Desktop reader which is installed on the same PC ad the Adobe Digital Editions 2.0
ADE is authorized with Adobe.
I believe I need to access the Kobo Desktop Reader from ADE first to be able to authorize the KOBO Desktop Reader.
However, the ADE is not recognizing the presence of the reader.
How should I proceed?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.You should post in the ADE forum if you think it is a usage issue with that software. Here's a link to the discussion section:

Unable to open .ACSM file in Digital Editions on intel Mac OS X
I am on an intel based Mac running OS X and have recently purchased an eBook for Digital Editions. I had previously purchased a Digital Editions format eBook and had no problems with it, and am currently able to view it in Digital Editions. I have downloaded the .ACSM file for my new eBook, however, when I attempt to assign the file to open with Digital Editions, the Digital Editions program window opens, but no activity concerning my new eBook occurs, and all that is listed is my previously purchased eBook. I have also attempted dragging the .ACSM file directly to the Digital Editions program window, as I have heard that this works on occasion, but still nothing. I have only ever installed DE version 1.7.1 and have no previous editions that would need to be uninstalled. Any ideas?

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.

Hi,
I have just installed Digital Editions 2.0 on Windows 7 32-bit. The program starts from the shortcut, but when I click any of the menu buttons, the application crashes with an ArgumentOutOfRange error. Has anyoen encountered anything like this?
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Kind wishes, PatrickVersion 1.7.2 is a little difficult to find,
I found it for PC at http://www.tucows.com/preview/853736/Adobe-Digital-Edition-For-EBooks
I'm not sure where there is a Mac version.

Others are having issues with ADE2.0 as well.
I had a thread http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1111732?tstart=0
I misnamed it 'plug in second eBook reader, can't read library book on PC', as I didn't know it was an ADE2.0 (+PRS-250+Overdrive) issue when I started it.
Also, people are having Nook problems with it: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/626420
quote from http://forums.adobe.com/thread/626420?start=250&tstart=0 (excuse cross-posting)
I had issues with Sony PRS-350 and ADE 2.0, especially when used with Overdrive library books.
A very helpful response from a librarian on my thread http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1111732?tstart=0 (search for 'mattrweaver1')
said that libraries were having lots of issues with users of ADE 2.0, and mentioned the Nook specifically.
You could try installing version 1.7.2 instead.
That resolved my issues with the Sony, and mattrweaver1 hinted their Nook problems only began with ADE 2.0, so may well work properly with the Nook.

How Do I migrate Adobe digital Editions from an old PC to a new PC
I have Adobe Digital Editions installed on an old PC with a lot of eBooks from various book stores and public domain sites.
Now I want to migrate this Content to a new PC without downloading again every book from the sources.If you already enable the iCloud mail you can't change it.

Please help thanks. Adobe Digital Edition using across multiple computers
Hi
I have Adobe Digital Editions (ADE) installed on a laptop with Windows, and a Mac laptop.
I have authorized ADE on both machines. I use the laptops at different locations
Currently i have 2 separate libraries (small libraries of < 10 books) on both computers but I would like
to be able to keep both libraries in synch - such that the books and especially the notes/bookmarks
are the same when I read the book on both laptops.
For example what I want to be able to do is read and takes notes using ADE on the PC
and then when I logon to my Mac laptop - to read the same book, and continue where
I bookmarked last, and also see the notes I had added previously on the other laptop.
Is this possible? Thanks
your help is much appreciated. I read and take alot of side notes
and this will save heaps of time.
I am a new to ADE but it feels like each computer/laptop where ADE will hold
a different library, with different set of books and bookmarks. Is it possible
to synch the books/bookmarks/notes across different machines

In windows xp serivce pack-2, ADE 2.0 is working perfectly for few days only, but after few days ADE 2.0 is not opening. I dont know why it is not opening? Can anyone tell me reason behind this?
If RUN>>MSCONFIG>GENERAL>DIAGNOSTIC STARTUP - LOAD BASIC DEVICES AND SERVICE ONLY > APPLY > OK and restarting the system then the ADE 2.0 is opening.
If RUN>> MSCONFIG>GENERAL>NORMAL STARTUP - LOAD ALL DEVICE DRIVERS AND SERVICES > APPLY > OK and restarting the system then the ADE 2.0 is NOT opening. As you people are well aware that we cannot use the diagnostic startup since it will allow basic service and devices only.
I have tried the following methods to overcome this issue (from internet)
1. Uninstall Adobe Digital Editions using one of these two methods:
Start > Programs > Adobe > Adobe Digital Editions > Uninstall
Start > Settings > Control Panel > Add Remove Programs
2. Initiate Uninstall
3. In order to remove all remnants of Adobe Digital Editions / Adobe Adept from the machine a "Registry Edit" will need to be performed:
Start > Run > Regedit
4. Search for HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Adobe > Adept and Delete the full "Adept" folder
5. Remove only the structures that are under the "SOFTWARE" extensions. This will remove the Adobe ID / License and Activation Keys
6. Clear any outstanding tasks that may be associated to Adobe Digital Editions downloads
C:\data\my digital editions
C:\my documents\my digital editions
7. Delete any documents within these folders:
Restore > Tasks
Restore > Failed
8. Re-install Adobe Digital Editions
9. I have updated Windows xp from SP2 to SP3
The above methods didn't helped me to solve this issue. Then, i have used DIAGNOSTIC STARTUP and safe mode, it was opened, but not in normal user mode.
