I have a Sony PRS-300, is Adobe Digital Editions compatable with it?

My PRS-300 is not on the list of compatable e-readers... but the PRS-350 is. Is my PRS-300 compatable?

There are bugs with ADE2.0 that mean the combination ADE2.0/Sony reader/Overdrive library book does not work correctly.
This is one of the vast number of bugs in ADE2.0.
There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0. 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.

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

To use ADE (either version) with a Sony device you need to install Sony Reader.
Download from https://ebookstore.sony.com/download/
Even if you don't use Sony Reader, it installs a device driver that enables ADE to interact with the Sony.
(Not sure why Sony makes this awkwardness that other devices don't have, it slightly marrs a really excellent lightweight ereader.)

Recognising Sony PRS-T1 in Adobe Digital Editions

Why doesn't Adobe Digital Editions recognise my Sony PRS-T1 ereader?

Use the forum for Adobe Digital Editions.

Does Adobe Digital Editions work with the Kobo Arc 7 e-reader ?

I cannot get Adobe Digital Editions to recognise my Kobo Arc 7.
Does Adobe Digital Editions work with the Kobo Arc 7 e-reader ?
It is recognised partly by Calibre but then produces an communication error message.
Are there any other utilities I could use to organise DRM files downloaded to be stored on the Kobo Arc?

No. For information about the future plans for this see http://blogs.adobe.com/billmccoy/2009/10/adobe-ebooks--.html

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

Do you have a Linux version download of Adobe Digital Editions 2.0 Installers ?

Hi I am running Ubuntu version 13.10, I can't find a version for Linux to download for Adobe Digital Editions.
Is there one that exists ?
Or do I have to go to windows to get this ?
Cheers
Nell

If you look at that thread posted above you will discover that in fact the answer is NO. There is no Linux version of Adobe Digital Editions - there is an OLD Windows version that you can run in Linux using WINE. Adobe Digital Editions sucks. DRM sucks.
From June UK residents will have a legal right to make copies of ebooks for personal use, and 'format shift' these if they so choose, hopefully this will encourage publishers to abandon this hopeless crippled and crippling technology - the analogy I like to use is to imagine if you could only read a paperback if you were wearing a particular pair of glasses.

Is Adobe Digital Editions compatible with 64-bit Windows 7?

My computer was having bluescreen issues so I did a System Recovery. I want to make sure all new software is compatible. Not sure what this means in the Technical Requirements: Windows 7 32 or 64 bit running in 32-bit mode.

it's compatible.
the tech specs indicate ade will be running in 32bit mode, not 64 bit.

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.

Adobe Digital Edition Errors/Troubleshooting

When installing Adobe Digital Editions, I received a corruption error message."

Cannot load ebook in Adobe Digital Editions on Mac

HELP! I purchased an ebook (PDF) and I'm having trouble using it in Adobe Digital Editions. I receive the following error...
Error getting license
License server communication problem: E_LIC_ALREADY_FULFILLED_BY_ANOTHER_USER
I had been trying to transfer the ebook to my iphone using TXTR but the app can not load the document.
I THINK I may have originally downloaded the ebook to Adobe Digital Editions without authorizing my computer, then when I later authorized it the ebook will no longer load.
Is there a solution. Is the ebook tied to my Adobe ID when I download it. I've tried re-downloading the ebook but I still get the same error. I've also tried removing and reinstalling Adobe Digital Editions.
By the way, I am on a Mac computer.
Thank you for any help you can give.

You can print the book if the publisher has given the print permission.
Can you provide the exact error statement? It will be helpful in understanding the issue.

Adobe Digital Editions in Normal User

Hello All
I have been working on repackaging the Adobe Digital Editions. I captured the package and it works well. Apart from one little problem. The Normal User cannot download files/ebooks on the Adobe Digital Editions free library. User with Administrative privileges can download the files as desired. I am confused if this is an issue related to the permissions to be provided in users. The application is to deployed in a customer location and it is not recommended to give administrative rights to normal users. I tried provided rights to the certain folder and regsitries using Process Monitor but to no avail.
So i need to know if any of you guys have come across a situation like this. Time is ticking so a prompt reply would be highly appreciated.
Many Thanks in anticipation
