Errors in Adobe Digital Editions

I installed Adobe Digital Editions to read an eBook I received for free (I'm glad I haven't paid for anything).
I got this error: Error deleting file: C:\Users\Suzanne\Documents\My Digital Editions\backup_manifest.xml
Error detail: Error #2038
Although I have managed to import my free eBook, and a few eBooks I downloaded off of the Adobe sample list, the free one I got from Shortcovers won't open.

I closed and re-opened Digital Editions. Every time I do this it tells me a download is not complete. I'm getting error messages from this book, and the error just says 2038.

Visual c++ assertion error with Adobe Digital Editions 2.00

My computer has windows 7. I have a Laser EB850 e-reader and have susccessfully installed and used ADE to borrow books from my library and then copy them over to my e-reader which has worked successfully. Suddenly I find that when I try to connect my e-reader via USB to my computer I get a Visual C++ assertion error and am unable to access my e-reader through ADE. Why has this all of a sudden happened and how can I fix it

Unfortunately, ADE2.0 is full of bugs.
You may be able to get round this one by uninstalling ADE2.0, and then reinstalling it.
(Check the Vista installation information at http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editions/kb/installing-digital-editions-20-windows.html)
Failing that, try installing instead the older but more reliable ADE1.7.2.
Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.
http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editions/kb/cant-install-digital-editions.html
The forum software is sometimes corrupting the link above. There shouldn't be a blank in 'editio ns.html'. The following redirects to the same page: http://tinyurl.com/diged172
~~~
In either case, it is quite likely that ADE will get its registration confused and half there.
In that case
remove any corrupted registration by ctrl-shift-D (cmd-shift-D on Mac)
restart ADE
redo your registration (menu/Help/Authorize Computer on ADE2.0, menu/Library/Authorize Computer on ADE1.7.2)

Adobe digital editions has stopped working??

I have been using ADE to read library ebooks, and the 2.0 version has never worked for me- I have always got the error message "Adobe digital editions has stopped working" as soon as I try to open it. I have been using the older version 1.7.2, but now it will no longer let me use this version and forces me to download an upgrade. I have tried 2.0 and 3.0 and both get the same error message. I have tried reinstalling and allowing through my firewall but I still keep getting the message. Does anyone know how I can fix this please??

When you open the ADE 2x/3x, It tries to load the books' details from the "My Digital Editions" folder (in "My documents") for the library view. If any of the book is corrupt, It fails to open correctly.
I am guessing this is the issue.
Can you try the following:
Backup the "My Digital Editions" folder and then remove this folder.
Now open the ADE. Hopefully, It will work.
If it does, you can open the books from the Backed up folder.
I hope it helps.

Please advise how to correct this?

Hello,

The lastest upgrade made adobe digital edition unusable. Has this been reported?

When I try to move my ebook to my reader I get an error message: Adobe Digital editions 3.0 has stopped working. This happened with version 2.0 as well. There were some suggestions to change some settings related to Firefox but that didn't work either. I'm using version 31.0 and windows 7

Go to '''Adobe.com,''' and update all of their software.

Adobe Digital Edition Ver 2.0

Downloadi/install successful/complete. Launching program results in Error Msg: "Adobe Digital Edition Ver 2 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." This repeats with every attempt to launch the program. How do we proceed from here? Please advise.

Hi KOOSHAREM2
Version 1.7.2 is the answer to many problems with ADE 2.0.
ADE2.0 regularly seems to have problems with Sony and Nook devices (and some others too?); and with XP.
Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.

Adobe Digital Editions quits unexpectedly when I open a book.

Adobe Digital Editions gives the error message, "Adobe Digital Editions has quit unexpectedly" every time I try to open a book. It will open the "getting started..." document that comes with the program. I have restarted my computer. I have re-downloaded the book. I have reinstalled the software. It still won't work. can anyone help me?

I have the same problem but no one seems to be able to help- I have spoken to kobo, apple and the library and no one has been able to rectify this issue. I think kobo has a software issue but they don't seem to want to look into it.

Adobe Digital Edition Errors/Troubleshooting

This occurs because the installation software coming from Adobe's Web site is unable to communicate and pass information through your companies Firewall or PC security to save to the computer, or there is potential that your network is "locked down" limiting the accessibility on the PC to install or uninstall software.
