How to authorize ebook reader in Adobe Digital Editions?

I downloaded Adobe Digital Editions from the website so that I can borrow ebooks via the public library system. I was able to authorize my computer, but can't figure out how to authorize by ebook reader (Kobo Touch) - without authorizing the device, I can't transfer the ebooks from my Mac to the Kobo Touch. Any information on how to authorize the ebook reader would be appreciated!

Assuming your reader is supported you need to have it connected via usb and turned on prior to launching Adobe Digital Editions. Once you launch Adobe Digital Editions it will ask to authorize your device.
If you have additional questions please post your inquiry to the Adobe Digital Editions forum.

How to add DRM protection to an EPUB so it can only be read with Adobe Digital Editions?

I wish to add DRM protection to our EPUBS and PDF's so that they can only be read using Adobe Digital Editions, so that we can control licensing.

Hi John,
At present, the only places you can buy copy-protected ebooks that are suitable for the Sony Reader are from Sony's own ebook store and from Borders.com. The books you buy from eBooks.com won't work on the Sony Reader.
Please contact our support team direct at help (at) ebooks.com, and tell them what's happened, and they'll be able to help you out.

How can I copy text in Adobe Digital Editions?

How can I copy text in Adobe Digital Editions for an eBook that I have purchased?

Adobe apps can be reset to their factory defaults by using Ctrl+Alt+Shift, not Del. The rest doesn't really make any sense since you did not provide any details and authorizations can't be changed that way, anyway. If you want to transfer books to other devices you need to contact the vendors to release the DRM/ provide a new download and if you want to change the registered ID, you need to contact support or create a completely new account, which in turn will require you to buy your DRM managed books again/ get a new download as well.

Authorizing a Kobo e-reader for Adobe Digital Editions

I am having trouble authorizing my Kobo e-reader for Adobe Digital Editions. As a result, I am unable to drag and drop epub files from my computer to my Kobo device. I have an Adobe ID, but when I attempt to complete the authorization process for my device, I receive a message stating "You can only authorize this computer with an Adobe ID that hasn't been previously used to authorize any other computer or device, Please try again." I am not aware that I previously authorized and other computer or device. Any suggestions?

I contacted Adobe Customer Service about the problem and the service representative said it was a "technical question" and could be addressed by the Forum participants, which, according to the Adobe website, include "experts".

Ebooks from Sony PC Reader to Adobe Digital Editions

I have a Sony PRS-T1. I also have Adobe Digital Editions installed on my computer. My Husband has a Kobo. When I purchase ebooks from various book stores they are automatically put into Sony PC Reader. When my husband wants ro read these books, I add them to ADE and then drop them onto his ereader (which appears as a book shelf). Recently when I have done this he has been unable to open the ebook on his device. Now I am noticing that when I try to put the ebook onto ADE, it gives me an error message that the "document is licensed for a different device". How do I fix this?
My understanding is that I can add the book to up to 6 devices, I am just trying to add it to a second device, and this has worked perfectly in the past????
Is there any way to avoid using Sony PC Reader ( I don't like it) and just use ADE to up load ebooks from the retailer and then to my Sony and the Kobo???

Unfortunately, the error comes from ADE reading the ID file of the ebooks
and then comparing it to the current ID. That's the only time the error is
generated. And it's possible that something has screwed up due to a change
that seemed unrelated.
Let's take this a step further.
If something 'changed' recently, did you log into the Sony Reader Store in
that time frame? Sony has updated their software, and that can occur
without you seeing anything happening.
Have you been able to open any of the affected ebooks before? Where did
you download them from - and if it was Sony Reader Store, did you put them
into the Reader library?
Did you know that Sony tells us the PRS-T1 is not supported under ADE,
while ADE says it is? I don't know how to rectify that.
Did you register the T1 with Sony using your current Adobe ID? (you
probably did but I had to ask)
Often, I forget a detail that, when I remember it, gives me the key to the
answer. I've been doing that for a number of years, but my wife doesn't
give me credit for any of them.

(sony) `Ebook Library' to `Adobe Digital Editions'

Searching here for ways to convert an (sony) `Ebook Library' format (*.lrx) to something the Adobe Digital Editions reader can read, I find long threads about converting the other way (adobe to sony) but not the reverse.
I have both freebie readers and have found the `Ebook Library' offered for download by sony, has a more extensive library easily accessed thru the reader in the genre I like to read (crime fiction/mystery).
I'm sure the same stuff is available somewhere on the net for the Adobe Digital Editions reader but with the `Ebook Library' I haven't had to search, just use there library.
The trouble is the reader part of `Ebook Library' sucks. Its pretty primitive compared to the adobe DE. For starters I can't reduce the size of type characters below a rather huge size. Even the smallest setting in the reader results in rather huge type. The reader is cumbersome and clunky in many other ways as well.
I vastly prefer reading with the Adobe DE. But do not like having to put so much time and energy into finding the books I want to download in Adobe DE format. Jumping around thru the various links I have for ebooks to find what I want instead of using the `Ebooks Library' to find it in one search/purchase combined move.
So how can I read the stuff downloaded in *.lrx format in Adobe DE. There is no intent to circumvernt DRM or some other sleaze... I don't mind paying for the books... I just want to read them in the software of choice, Adobe DE

While I'm glad that you like ADE, unfortunately as you have undoubtedly already figured out we only support PDF and ePub for viewing and do not support viewing of Sony's .lrf (unencrypted) or .lrx (DRM protected). I don't think that will change anytime soon (but I'm just an engineer and have been wrong about product directions plenty of times).
For non DRM Sony files there are plenty of convertors out there to use - although most of them focus on converting to .lrf so you can place the file on a Sony Reader. A good general resource for conversion tools, how well they work etc is the MobileRead Format Conversion forum
Other than that, the best I can do for you is to suggest some additional links to add to your various link you already have:
Feedbooks - provides free access to public domain material in a variety of formats including ePub http://www.feedbooks.com
A Crime/Mystery filtered link:
http://www.feedbooks.com/discover/list/books?type=Crime%2FMystery
ebooks.com - offers a wide varieties of books
http://www.ebooks.com
(look for their fiction/crime section - they don't have a separate mystery section)
Good Luck

Reader for Adobe Digital Editions 3.0

I currently use Adobe Digital Editions 3.0 in order to read epub books from my local library. Is there an add in that will read the book (audio) to allow a visually impaired person to listen to the book? If so I need instructions to make it work. Thanks!!

I would like to apologize for my tardiness, a Lady that stole my heart 50 years ago finished her job and went ahead of me to get our next place ready. I am so lost without her. I finally realized how upset she's going to be for me not helping or at least pitching in, This is my first evening back.
Let me show you what I bring to the table tonight my friend, http://www.freedomscientific.com/jaws-hq.asp
Now at this address I have only 2 versions available:
JAWS Purchasing Information
JAWS Professional: $1,095

I hope to hear from you Thank You!

Can I de-authorize an account on Adobe Digital Editions, or authorize more than one account?

I have Adobe Digital Editions, and had authorized it to an email account that was hijacked and later deleted. Now, I want to change to a new account, and it WILL NOT admit that it is possible to do so. I even tried uninstalling and re-installing Digital Editions, and it still insists that it's authorized to a dead account.
Can I undo this? I'd like to check out ebooks through my library, and can't without authorizing Digital Editions to my current email.

If you don't have any bought books from the old account you still want to use,
probably easier to make a brand new Adobe account to your current email than to mend the old account.
ctrl-shift-D should deauthorize the account ADE is currently using.
If you have devices linked to the old account, use ctrl-shift-E to ADE while the device is plugged in.

How to get the download for Adobe Digital Editions to work on PC?

How to I get the download for Adobe Digital Editions to work on my PC?
3-4 tries today on Adobe website and no results.

If you are on Vista, see the announcement at the top of the forum,
which points to http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editions/kb/installing-digital-editions -20-windows.html
Try an older version (1.7.2) of ADE, especially if you are on XP.
Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.

ADOBE READER Y ADOBE DIGITAL EDITIONS

hola a todos, he expuesto estos dos problemas en los foros "americanos" y no consigo que me solucionen las incidencias, os comento por si me podeis ayudar;
1º respecto a adobe reader, cada vez que abro un documento desaparece toda la barra superior del adobe y cada vez que paso el ratón por el documento empiezan a aparecer las pestañas poco a poco y desaparece igualmente de nuevo, ¿sabéis qué está ocurriendo?
2º y respecto al adobe digital editions no tengo forma de imprimir un documento entero con todas sus paginas, solo me permite imprimir una, con lo cual es un trabajo que no entiendo, os pregunto cómo puedo imprimir un documento completo y no una sola pagina.
gracias por vuestra atención,
(pd.- estoy registrado en adobe.com y no hay forma de que me atiendan)

a mí no porque no manejo windows, pero segurmanete a alguien le servirá, en mi caso tuve ese problema que llamas 1, pero sólo esporádicamente en una versión vieja del sistema (snow leopard) y nunca interfería en el uso del programa, más que una vez de pasarle el cursor pora arriba para que refrescara la pantalla.
en tu caso parece ser un problema del video más que del reader en sí, por el tipo de problema que describes, da la sensación de que lo que se traba es el refresh de tu pantalla, pero espero que alguno que sepa más de windows te pueda orientar, yo me fijaría lo tradicional, que tengas todos los controladores actualizados (ningun triangulo amarillo en tus control panels, ni ninguna alerta al comienzo de sesión)

How DRM works? Adobe-id, authorize devices, Content Server, Adobe Digital Edition etc.

I fail to understand why there isn't a coherent end-to-end documentation of how DRM works with all the individual pieces ADE, Content-Server, adobe-id coming together in protecting/limiting copying of PDFs and binding limited number of devices. I've googled enough and went through forums but the information is scattered and missing. Could someone throw light on these sample queries -
1. Say, I've ADE installed on PC, which I'm using to authorize a device, say sony reader. Will I've to connect to internet (be online) while authorizing the device even when my ADE is already authorized? How does Adobe ensure that a document is copied to only limited 5/6 devices?
2. Do content-server, say installed at Overdrive etc., interact with Adobe for any adobe-id sharing?
3. At what instances do ADE interact (over the internet) with Adobe directly and with Content-server directly when making the drm-enabled PDF available for reading. How does the interaction look like while transferring the drm-enabled PDF to another device, say Sony reader, from ADE?
4. How is the information regarding PDF sharing tracked and managed to ensure limited sharing/copying? Is there a central server managing that?
5. What if I download the same PDF from another PC with ADE authroized with same adobe-id? Will the new PC be treated as 2nd device? If so, is that information stored and synced regularly from main Adobe authorization servers and content-servers?
Please note that I'm not interested in knowing Adobe's intellectual property but the flow and the interaction among it's various pieces.

When you deactivate a device, the used activation is not added back to the pool.
How do I increase the number of activations if I run out?
You can go to this Adobe page to increase the number of activations: http://www.adobe.com/support/digitaleditions/.
