Does Windows 8.1 support Adobe Digital Editions 2

I have an Archos 9.0 eReader. Adobe Digital Editions has always worked on Windows 8 but since upgrading to Windows 8.1, I am unable to download from Windows 8.1 to the eReader. Should I delete the Adobe Digital Editions file and download a newer version.
Any help would be much appreciated.

ADE2.0.1 sort of works for me, going through the Win 8 to 8.1 upgrade without deterioration.
I don't actually use it to transfer to my eReader (Sony PRS-350),
as bugs in ADE2.0/2.0.1 mean that it will not work with that eReader and Overdrive library books.
That isn't an OS version isssue, but an ADE bug.
General solution to many curious problems ...
~~~~~~~~~
There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0 (and 2.0.1). 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.

Some people have found ADE trying to upgrade automatically.
It appears (not 100% sure) that if you install ADE2.0 as a new install (not as an upgrade) that your 1.7.2 will continue to run.
Probably best to say no if 2.0.x installation asks if you want to migrate your library.

Does the ipad support adobe digital editions?

I would like to publish my book as a digital edition for iPad. However, the book is a PDF which comes out beautifully on Adobe Digital Editions, and I can not find any information about whether ADE is compatible with the iPad or iPhone. This leads me to believe it isn't. Kindle does not support PDF, either. Can't ADE just be downloaded to iPad or iPhone and then just used to when a book is purchased in a PDF?
Any info. will be greatly appreciate.

No, there isn't anything on the ipad that can display these files and I'm not aware that adobe has given any indication that there will be. There are many other pdf readers, but they can't open ADE files.

Why Adobe digital Edition does not accept my Adobe ID for authorisation my Computer?

Hello, who has experience in this question?

Most like answer is my first below. Second added as a possible solution if the first doesn't work.
1) ~~~~~
Sometimes ADE gets its registration/activation confused and in a semi-authorized state.
Uninstalling and reinstalling does not help.
Unfortunately, it often then gives misleading error messages about what is wrong.
A common incorrect message informs you that the ID is already in use on another computer and cannot be reused.
This can often be resolved by completely removing any authorization using ctrl-shift-D to the Library screen on ADE (cmd-shift-D if on Mac).
Restart ADE, and then reauthorize with your (old) Adobe ID.
In extreme cases on the mac, the following extra step has helped some people. Navigate to /Users//Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions and drag the activation.dat file to the trash. If you are using 10.7, see Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 Lion. http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1265248?tstart=0

If Adobe Digital Edition 4.0.3 is open and no book is opened, it crashes when minimizing the window

I am trying to find a fix for this issue and I saw on a lot's of post, that people are having the same problem as I am with Adobe Digital Edition 4.0.3. If I open Adobe Digital Editions 4.0.3 with no book opened and I minimized the window, then it crashes and it give's me the following error message:

note to moderator - this is MY response to MY own posting. How can this be a duplicate.
success. ADE 4.0 is to be avoided. It crashed after my solution.
The solution is trash the activation.dat preference file.
Navigate to /Users//Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions and drag the activation.dat file to the trash.
If you are using 10.7, see Access hidden library files | Mac OS 10.7 and later.
I reinstalled ADE 3.0 and life is good.

Can no longer see my purchased books in Adobe Digital Edition software

Because my purchased books are no longer listed on my Adobe Digital Edition software, they can no longer be downloaded into my E-Reader (due to Rights protection). I do not understand why they disappeared from the Purchased list. I would like Adobe to Re-install into my purchased list all my purchased books. Would like some help with that.

Very nice device the PRS-350, my wife and I both have them.
Not exactly sure how much you have updated, so some of these comments may not be to the point ....
Copying to the Sony should have worked as long as it is still registered with the ID used when you bought the books.
Maybe the Sony lost its registration when you did Sony updates, and you need to reregister it?
Nothing will work with a different ID; you can change the email address assocated with the old ID,
but can't read books with a device registered with a different ID or transer them to a new ID.
Probably when you updated your software ADE lost its repository.
Adobe does not remember your books in any 'cloud' associated with your ID,
the ID is just used to unlock the files you still have that are associated with the ID.
Try opening the books on the USB on ADE (ctrl-O, menu/File/Add to Library).
They should then appear again in the ADE library and you should be able to copy to the Sony (assuming registrations all correct).
Or, if you want the books always available on the computer even without the USB,
copy from USB to computer, then use ADE to open the copies on the computer.
If ADE won't read the books either it is probably not correctly registered (with the original ID).
One possibility is that ADE got confused about registration when you reinstalled (it often does).
See ***1 note at end.
Also, there is a bug in ADE2.0/2.0.1 that means they Sony devices won't work with library books on that ADE release.
If you want to use library books, use the older more reliable version of ADE.
See ***2.
Good luck.

Unable to download library ebooks to Adobe Digital Editions....

I have always been able to do this. Have not used it for a couple months and now after downloading the library ebook, the book does not show on the ADE "screen". How can I fix this? I miss my library books! TIA

I was having the same problem with the same error message which was quite frustrating, but I finally got it to work. Trying another browser did not work, trying to remove and reinstall the software did not work either. What finally worked was deauthorizing the computer and then authorizing it again. However, that was not so simple as every time I tried within Digital Editions it would not let me, kept giving me a message saying 'try again sometime later'. So, then I typed in something like 'can't deauthorize computer' and that is where things started working. Someone left instructions for deauthorizing on another post which I have pasted below for your convenience. Once I went through these steps I went back to digital editions, authorized the computer, and I was finally able to download my library books - was quite a frustrating process!
If due to some reason, you are unable to deauthorize ADE, follow the below steps:
Mac: Navigate to /Users//Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions and drag the activation.dat file to the trash.
ADE will be deauthorized now.
Now Authorize ADE again.
Windows:
Choose Start > Run.
In the Open text box, type regedit and then press Enter. The Registry Editor opens.
In the left pane of the Registry Editor, locate the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Adept
Right-click the Adept key and choose Delete.
In the Confirm Key Delete dialog, click OK.
Your authorization will be deleted.
ADE will be deauthorized now.
Now Authorize ADE again.

Various possible things.
1) ~~~~~
Your firewall is blocking ADE connections. Double-check the firewall, or run with it (temporarily) turned off.

Adobe Digital Edition keeps showing error message when i download my ebook. Pleease help?

i have restarted my pc closed and opened the program, opened another internet page to check if its connect and its still not working?

Are you sure it is still the same underlying Adobe account that was used when then books were originally accessed, with just the password changed?
In that case, should just have continued working, but ... you are using the world's worst software so anything can happen.
Try deauthorizing the computer and reauthorizing.

Non riesco ad ottenere l'autorizzazione per utilizzare Adobe Digital Editions

non riesco ad ottenere l'autorizzazione per utilizzare Adobe Digital Editions

A volte ADE prende la sua registrazione / attivazione confuso e in uno stato di semi-autorizzata.
Disinstallare e reinstallare non aiuta.
Purtroppo, dà spesso poi i messaggi di errore fuorvianti su ciò che è sbagliato.
Un messaggio errato comune informa che la ID è già in uso su un altro computer e non può essere riutilizzato.
Un altro è "E_AUTH_NOT_READY"
Questo spesso può essere risolto rimuovendo completamente qualsiasi autorizzazione con ctrl-shift-D alla schermata Library su ADE (cmd-shift-D se su Mac).
Riavviare ADE, e quindi autorizzare nuovamente con il (vecchio) Adobe ID.
In casi estremi sul mac, il seguente passo in più ha aiutato alcune persone.
