Google vendor ID authorization and reset device limits

Hello,
I recently purchased a book on Google Play.  So I attempted to download ADE and transfer the book to my Kobo Mini eReader. I tried to authorize my devices and computer using Google. The first problem is that when I selected Google as an ebook vendor, I use my Google details to login, but it says that my information is not correct. I know that my Google ID and password are correct because just a moment ago, I used them to login to my gmail. This seems to happen to some people on here as well. Is there any fix for this at all?
The second problem is that after many times attempting to authorize both computers and kobo and failed, I reset my computer (I was using my university's computer and it runs on virtual machine). When I got the computer rebooted, I downloaded ADE and started the process again. But this time, when I opened the .acsm file from ADE, it said that my device limit is reached. I assume that this happen because I was on my university's computer and it uses virtual machine so everytime it reboots, it becomes a completely-new-and-different-computer (since there are a lot of students at my uni and each student has a unique log in details; everytime the computer reboots, it completely wipes out all of the information from the previous use, including installation, etc.). So I guess ADE treated my computer as a new device, hence the device limit reached. So my question is, how can I reset my device limits (I got this suggestion from google play support that to contact adobe for a device limit reset, that's why I post the question here.)
Thank you.

Don't you think it's about time somebody responded to this kind of problem?
The whole ADE business is a f'ng disgrace, with every roadblock known to man being thrown up when you try to "authorize" a computer. I've just tried to change a computer's authorization to be associated with an Adobe ID, and all I get is the message "You can only authorize this computer with an Adobe ID that hasn't been previously used to authorize any other computer or mobile devices. Please try again."
Of course if you are dumb enough to try again, you get the same result, over and over.
A computer died, I replaced it, now I'm getting this crap and wasting hours of my time.
As I said, a f***ing disgrace.

  • Restarting and reseting a device.

    What is the difference between restarting and reseting device? What benefits do they offer when It comes to troubleshooting a certain issue?

    Restart is 'turning off the phone with the Sleep/Wake button'.
    Reset is 'forcing the phone to turn off, then on again with a combination of the Home button & the Sleep/Wake button'
    Basic Troubleshooting Steps
    Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.
    Relaunch the App and try again.
    Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

  • ALERT: Google account sync broken on webOS devices (and a fix)

    MUST READING FOR webOS USERS WHO SYNC CONTACTS WITH GOOGLE ACCOUNTS:
    Earlier this week I began having trouble with my Pre3.  It spontaneously restarted and pretty much wiped everything.  After logging back in to my webOS account, I then began having trouble logging in to my several Google accounts.  Each time, I got either an "unknown error" message or a message that my credentials were incorrect.
    A very clever webOS developer (consider throwing him some bones if you use his patch...see below) figured out that Google changes to https (whatever that means) were the culprit.  I don't understand enough of the jargon to explain it, but the issue seems to effect Google accounts (primarily contacts) which are newly added to a device or re-added after a reset or doctoring your device, more so than accounts that are already on your device.
    However, even if your existing gmail and calendar accounts still sync, you are strongly advised to check...Google contact sync is probably broken and you might not realize it.  In this condition, contacts which are newly added directly on device will not sync to google servers for backup and syncing with other devices you might have, unless you install the patch below.
    I can vouch for that.  I had added several new contacts directly on the phone during the past week, but after this week's fun & games, I found that none of the newly added contacts had ever synced to my online Google contacts, which means they didn't sync back down from google's servers onto my other devices.
    SO...GO HERE NOW:  The patch which is discussed in this linked article on webOS Nation has definitely fixed the sync problem on my Pre3.  It requires the use of webOS Quick Install.    While you're at it, install Preware using webOS Quick Install, and expand the usability and speed of your webOS device. Then install a Preware app called Internlz Pro which is installed with Preware.  Then you email the patch to yourself, click on the attachment, and Internalz Pro installs directly without having to connect to your computer.  
    Please post back in this thread if this issue has effected your phone or tablet, and if you have any problems installing the patch.  I haven't used webOS Quick Install in a long time so I had to figure it out from scratch.  I install from a MacBook and it works just fine.  There is also an on-device option called Internlz Pro which is installed with Preware directly on the phone...you email the ptch to yourself and Internalz Pro will install it.  
    HP/Palm had given its support to the webOS Homebrew Community, so let's use this information here to keep these devices healthy.  You will find much more detailed informatio in the forum linked above where the patch is located, and how to get webOS Quick Install and PreWare downloads.
    I'll also use this experience as a plug for PreWare and the really selfless developers who support our favorite OS and catch stuff like this when it happens, and turn around a patch in a day or two so that the community can benefit..  There are tons of improvements just waiting there for your webOS devices.  Tweaks.  Patches.  Enhancements of all sorts to make your webOS device run faster and jump higher.  All free, robust, and ready to keep webOS cool and relevant for many more years, for a lot of users.
    No particular skills or knowledge are needed to take advantage of PreWare.  The directions are very simple.  You already have the hardware.  This experience shows me that the webOS homebrew community still has some dedicated and pretty darned skilled developers at work for the sheer joy and pride (and a few $$ should someone toss them a few) of keeping their...our...beloved webOS alive.

  • I have 5 devices authorized to my itunes account. 2 of them crashed but I am unable to authorize my new pc. From what I can see it looks like I may have to "deauthorize all" and then re authorize my current devices? Please help!

    I have 5 devices authorized to my itunes account. 2 of them crashed long ago.  Now that I have a new pc, I am unable to authorize it.  I think from what I've read that I should "deauthorize all" and then go back and authorize my current 3 devices.  Is this correct?  I have tons of music and need to make sure I won't lose anything.  I would sure appreciate the help!  Thanks!!!

    No that is not correct.
    Devices do not count toward the 5.  Authorization is only for computers, not iphone/ipod/ipad/Apple tv.
    You do not authorize or deauthorize devices at all.
    If you have reached the limit of 5 authorized COMPUTERS, then deauthorize all and the authorize the active COMPUTERS.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    What exactly do you mean by 'it doesn't save'.
    Does this mean it doesn't save at all, doesn't save to the iCloud folder or doesn't sync with other the devices or iCloud.com.

  • My iPod 5th gen is no longer charging. I've cleaned out lint, switched chargers, and reset the device more times than I can count. I'm just wondering if there's anything I can do to fix it, or if it's a lost cause.

    I've had my iPod touch 5th gen for a little over 2 years now. a few weeks ago, I went to plug my iPod into the charger. After about 20 minutes I went to go get it so I could reply to texts and clear some notifications and I noticed that it was still at 20%. So I tried a different cord, different outlet, cleaned out any lint that might be in there, and reset the iPod more than once. Nothing worked. Eventually the problem corrected itself. But then it happened again a few days later. And then it happened just recently, and now it's happening again. In total it's happened 4 times, the first 3 times its corrected itself, but this time it's not. I'm not sure if there's anything else I can do, or if it's just a lost cause.

    Not Charge
    - See:

    If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

    Right. If you are using delegated privs and sudo, make sure that sudo is configured to pass on the PERL5LIB and ORACLE_HOME environment variables at least.

  • Vendor, trading parner, authorization and corporate group

    Hi experts!
    Thank you for pay attention to my message! I have a question about the fields in customer master date.
    What does it mean or what will happen to the customer master if I entry a vendor no. or a company ID for trading partner in the field vendor, trading parner, authorization and corporate group in the customer master general data?
    In other words, in which business scenario or situation should I entry data in these fields:
    vendor, trading parner, authorization and corporate group in the customer master general data?
    Thank you for your help!

    Hi,
    Vendor- when the customer is also a vendor( i.e. supplying any form of product- raw material) you need to enter vendor no.
    Trading partner- If this customer is trading with other company code of the same client.
    Authorization- To protect access of the data maintained
    Corporate group- If customer belongs  to a group ,maintain group key here.
    Thanks,

    As mentioned above, I purchased a book and downloaded it on my pc, but I am unable to authorize and transfer this purchase to my other devices.  I downloaded bluefire reader per online instructions and added the pdf book file to this app on itunes.  When I attempt to authorize the purchase by entering my adobe id, it doesn't work, the authorization window clears the fields I just entered, I enter the information again and the same result.

  • After resetting devices apps don't sync between iTunes and devices

    I use Windows iTunes 11.0.1.12 in Windows 8 together with an iPad 3 w/ 6.1 and an iPhone 4S w/ 6.1.1.
    As my app collection grew too much I decided it was time to start over from scratch. So I deleted all apps within the iTunes library and reseted my devices, telling them to be configured as New Device when the question was asked whether I wanted to use a backup of the device. Then for a while I downloaded apps to the devices directly on the devices without using iTunes.
    All seemed to be nice until I connected the iPhone to the computer to sync it, mainly for backing up the apps on the devices. But this is not happening. I can sync as often as I like, apps which I downloaded on the devices are not copied to iTunes' library when I sync the device. Likewise apps that I obtained within iTunes are not copied to the devices when I sync.
    Does anybody know how I could fix this?

    I have the exact same problem. Help!

  • How do you reset data on iCloud? My first device that moved to iCloud is not the most accurate.  The only option iCloud gives is to merge.  I want to erase and reset up with my laptop to iCloud then add my other devices?  Any help?

    My first device that I moved to the cloud was not the most accurate.  I want to erase what is on the iCloud and reset with my laptop first and then my other devices. Any suggestions?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Before you start, I'd export the data from the notebook to your desktop as a back up.
    Turn syncing off, if it isn't already, on the notebook (system preferences > iCloud), delete the data from the first device, turn on syncing on the notebook and merge.

  • TS1389 can i un-authorize and re-authorize all devices?  i recently got ride of and replaced several.

    can i un-authorize and re-authrize all my devices. i am having trouble getting itunes to authorize my new computer and i am thinking this may resolve the issue and i have tried all the other suggestions

    Yes, you can:
    Authorization
    iTunes Store- Authorize or deauthorize your Mac or PC.
    In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.
    De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
      1. Open iTunes on a computer
      2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
      3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
      4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
      5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
    If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.
    For more information on authorization and de-authorization: iTunes Store- Authorize or deauthorize your Mac or PC.

  • Is there any software to wash out everything and reset iphone 4s as a new device ?

    Is there any software to wash out everything and reset iphone 4s as a new device ?

    Okay, so what you are describing here is the activation lock and restoring the phone via iTunes as a new device will not help you at all.
    The activation lock requires that you know the Apple id and you need to get the Apple id for the device that you have purchased from the website that you bought it from.
    If you cannot get the Apple id for the phone then you will never be able to use it and you have wasted your money on it, so you either need to get the correct Apple id for the phone or return the phone for a full refund and start again, but this time buy the phone from a legitimate source.
    If you cannot get the Apple id for the phone there is no way around it and you will never be able to use this phone.
