How do I change the authorization on my laptop

I have a windows 7 laptop that was the first place we installed Adobe Digital Edition and we used one email address.  Now we do not have access to the email account any more and want to chagne the authorization account to our new email account.  We have created the new ID on the web and I am logged in using it to write this request for help.  I cannot find any way to change the authorization account on my laptop.  I have tried uninstalling, deleting the digital editions folder, rebooting, and re-installing but it stills shows the authorization account using the old email address.
Ideas?

I found the answer in another discussion

Re: How can I change computer authorization after two Adobe IDs have been merged together?  
The clean way to deauthrorize your computer is to launch ADE, and then press Ctrl+Shift+D (Windows) or Cmd+Shift+D (Mac). After deauthorizing, you will be forced to reactivate/authorize when you next run ADE.  --

  • How do I change the authorization e-mail for a device?

    We're trying to download library books to my wife's new Color Nook.  We've downloaded the books to our computer via Adobe Digital Editions (ADE).  But, whenever we connect the Nook to our computer with a USB cable, ADE shows a prompt asking us to authorize the device using an old e-mail address, not the one my wife is using for her Nook.  Also, when I try to use the Library > Authorize Computer command, ADE says that we've authorized a device using the old e-mail address, not the one my wife is using.  How can I change the authorization e-mail address so that it recognizes her device???

    1.  I'm sure you must have tried signing in to Adobe and changing email address in your profile.  Don't know if they retrofit.
    2.   I can't account for what just happened.  Last night I took screen shots of all the various manifestations of my problem, including messages that the book both could and could NOT be copied.  For the umpteenth time I reopened the original booksale into ADE and tried to drag to Nook--got the usual red X's.   This morning the icon miraculously allowed itself to be dragged into the nook. Green all the way--nothing had been changed.  Elves in the night?  Then I opened Nook--no book! But there it was in Documents.  No, it wasn't there all this time.  I knew to look there because of other threads.  I also remember someone else had a problem that sorted itself out after leaving the Nook attached to computer for a long time. 
    So thanks for all the suggestions.  What I take away from all this is that the Nook works well with B&N but using ADE for EPUB books is clumsy and tedious. Or possibly it is just slow.   If I had wanted only books in English I could have gotten the Kindle, but with Nook I expected to gain access to Dutch books.  It had worked before, but this time, perhaps with this seller, I spent hours spread over 3 days to sort it out and I still don't know how to avoid this the next time.

  • How do you change ID authorization if wrong ID was installed?

    Got a new tablet with all my programs pre-installed.  Adobe ID used for setup is not my ID so now I cannot access my books.  How can I change the authorization ID so that I can access my books?

    CTL-shift-D does nothing.
    In ADE under Help it says “Authorize Computer CtrlShiftU”, however this line item is in light grey, indicating that you cannot click on this line and the command CtrlShiftU does not work either.  The next line under Help is” Authorization Information CtrlShiftI” which shows me the ID authorization that is set up for ADE, but this ID is not my correct ID.  It was set up by the “seller” of the tablet as a working dummy account ([email protected]) for them to set up all the programs I wanted on the tablet.  So now I am locked out from changing the authorization for this computer – it keeps telling me this computer is already authorized to that incorrect ID.
    How the heck can I get rid of it!!  I’m desparate for help.  I’m losing approx. 1000+ books because of this!!
    Please, Please help me.

  • HT3702 how can i remove the authorization hold from my card...

    how can i remove the authorization hold from my card

    You can try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store
    How much was the amount ? A 'normal' holding charge is a small amount (e.g. equivalent to about $1), and usually happens after you add or change credit card details on your account. Here in the UK it can take a few working days for it to disappear (so a weekend can extend the elapsed time).
    Edit : I don't know what a non-liability certificate is and/or whether Apple can do one.

  • How can i transfer the 'Authorization Group'(SE54) to another client?

    In project i must define an 'Authorization Group' in T-Code SE54---The 3rd radiobutton.
    But there is no message to me to entry the Request NO.?
    How can i transfer the 'Authorization Group' ?
    I konw the date can be show from view 'V_BRG_54' ,but how to transport the data of the view?
    TKS a millon~~

    Hi,
    If your client is set for automatic recording of changes it should prompt for a transport, check there is not another client where you should make config changes.  If not, the menu option Table View -> Transport will let you assign the Auth group to a transport.

  • How can I change the administrator name?

    I'm getting ready to sell my old I-mac. How do I change the administrator name or delete it?

    Follow these instructions step by step to prepare a Mac for sale:
    Step One - Back up your data:
           A. If you have any Virtual PCs shut them down. They cannot be in their "fast saved" state. They must be shut down from inside Windows.
           B. Clone to an external drive using using Carbon Copy Cloner.
              1. Open Carbon Copy Cloner.
              2. Select the Source volume from the Select a source drop down menu on the left side.
              3. Select the Destination volume from the Select a destination drop down menu on the right
                  side.
              4. Click on the Clone button. If you are prompted about creating a clone of the Recovery HD be
                  sure to opt for that.
                   Destination means a freshly erased external backup drive. Source means the internal
                   startup drive.
    Step Two - Prepare the machine for the new buyer:
              1. De-authorize the computer in iTunes! De-authorize both iTunes and Audible accounts.
              2, Remove any Open Firmware passwords or Firmware passwords.
              3. Turn the brightness full up and volume nearly so.
              4. Turn off File Vault, if enabled.
              5. Disable iCloud, if enabled: See.What to do with iCloud before selling your computer
    Step Three - Install a fresh OS:
         A. Snow Leopard and earlier versions of OS X
              1. Insert the original OS X install CD/DVD that came with your computer.
              2. Restart the computer while holding down the C key to boot from the CD/DVD.
              3. Select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu; repartition and reformat the internal hard drive.
                  Optionally, click on the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.

              5. Upon completion DO NOT restart the computer.
              6. Shutdown the computer.
         B. Lion and Mountain Lion (if pre-installed on the computer at purchase*)
             Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because
                       it is three times faster than wireless.
              1. Restart the computer while holding down the COMMAND and R keys until the Mac OS X
                  Utilities window appears.
              2. Select Disk Utility from the Mac OS X Utilities window and click on the Continue button.

    *If your computer came with Lion or Mountain Lion pre-installed then you are entitled to transfer your license once. If you If your computer came with Lion or Mountain Lion pre-installed then you are entitled to transfer your license once.

    How can I change the display of Inbox in my iPad's mail app- so that it takes up the whole screen, as opposed to just about one third; the other two thirds display the full text of the selected email?

    You can't change the display in the Mail app, if you are holding the iPad in landscape orientation then the left-hand third will be for navigation, and the right-hand two-thirds will be an email. If you hold the iPad in portrait orientation then the navigation section becomes a drop-down section.

  • In the Menu Bar, under File, then Open File, how do I change the selections?

    I have Firefox 11.0 and Windows 5.1 (2007). In Firefox, I click on FILE in the Menu Bar, then OPEN FILE (Ctrl+O), and I see a small box; it says Look in: Mozilla Firefox. Below is a selection of files within the folder Mozilla Firefox. To the left is a column of four other folders: Downloads, My Computer, John, Lori. The last two are obviously two of the folders I've created on my computer, using Windows. But I don't know how they got here! I have no recollection of customizing this particular Firefox menu option by adding those folders, nor can I figure out what to do in order to further customize it. Can anyone tell me: (1) how can I change the original "Look in" option so that it opens with something other than "Mozilla Firefox" (which, after all, I never need to access)? (2) how can I add/delete/change the choices offered in the column on the left, so that different folders are listed? (Currently, if I want to access my Windows folders/files, I first have to minimize the Firefox screen; this seems to me a nice shortcut, but I'd like it to include shortcuts to the folders I use the most, which does not include "Mozilla Firefox"!) (3) Is this actually a Firefox feature, or is it a Windows feature? It does look like Windows (Windows style, Windows folders), but it appears only in the Firefox Menu Bar, along with Bookmarks, Tools, etc. Thanks!

    This sounds like a Windows thing ( You can post a photo and I can tell you for certain). Those folders are Windows system created folders that your computer has had since it was installed, all Firefox does is use the Windows File picker, which is what you see when you open that window. So, to customize you'd have to do that from Windows Explorer (not Firefox).
    The Window should however remember what folder you were in last.
