New activation of Sony prs 600

I am having a nightmare with my new reader. I obviously screwed up on activation and even though I have deact
ivated and reactivated I cannot open or transfer any books I have purchased either on the Sony e reader library OR the Adode Dig
ital Editions. In the UK I can only communicate 'online' with Adobe and its slow, frustrating and hasnt helped. Any suggestio
ns?

My PRS-350 showed up in ADE2.0 in Windows (once Sony Reader and the driver were installed);
and would work for boutght DRM books.
... but ADE2.0 would not handle library books correctly with the Sony plugged in.
I use ADE1.7.2 instead.
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
If you really want to use ADE2.0 and the Sony won't show up,
you can use ADE2.0 to download the .acsm file and get the DRM .epub file,
and then use Finder (or other file manager) to copy the .epub books from the Mac to the Sony.
As long as the Sony is authorized with the same ID as ADE, your should be able to read the books on it.
If the Sony isn't even showing up as a mapped drive, then there is something wrong at a lower level.
Usually, you don't even need the Sony software for it to show up as a mapped drive.

  • Sony e reader prs 600 not showing in bookmark pane on my new Mac with Snow Leopard

    I have a brand new sony e reader prs 600 it is supported but I am unable to see it on the bookmark pane in my new Mac with Snow Leopard is it something to do with Snow leopard?  Or why can I not see my sony e reader?  thank you

    According to the Adobe website ADE 1.7.1 is compatible with Mac if you 
    look at system requirements and with the Sony reader if you look at 
    supported devices.  Though it doesn't mention Macs latest O/S.
    and if I download an Adobe digital editions book, can I then move it 
    to Sony's ebook software, or is the format unsupported on the Sony 
    Ereader?

  • Snow Leopard and Sony eReader PRS 600

    Is anyone else having a problem with this? I can get my computer authorised but not my eReader. Adobe Digital Editions and Sony are not responding to my queries about this. I need an Apple expert to tell me what to do!!!

    I have a PRS 505 eReader that works fine with the Sony Reader Library s/w on Snow Leopard but is not recognized by Adobe Digital Editions...no problem I can download what I need with Reader Library. Recently bought a PRS 600 eReader for my wife and it does not work with on Snow Leopard. Same story on my wife's iMac running Snow Leopard.
    When I boot to Windows XP on my MacBook Pro both the PRS 600 and the PRS 505 work fine with both Reader Library and Adobe Digital Editions (have read that Adobe Digital Editions do not recognize Sony ereaders under Mac OSX)
    Conclusion: Just have to wait for Sony to get their act together and update the software/firmware to work properly under Mac OSX Snow Leopard (do not know how the PRS 600 works with earlier Mac OSX versions). Their latest firmware download for the PRS 600 on their support website is at an earlier version than what came with the ereader! Also when running Snow Leopard under 32 bit kernel the Ereader errors are even worse (hold down the 3 & 2 keys while booting up).
    Suggestions from their help desk made things worse.....had to spend some time recovering from their ill-informed suggestions.
    Pity about their software support. Once you have the books downloaded the Sony is a great machine to use.
    I suppose patience is the key word here.

  • I cannot get Digital Editions to see and authorize my sony reader PRS-600

    I cannot get Digital Editions to see and authorize my sony reader PRS-600.  I am running windows Vista.  I am registered and my PC is authorized, but I cannot get DE to authorize my reader.  Any ideas?

    Hi
    Thank you so much to Reg for his answer to the above subject. I have been reading
    / searching / reading at both Adobe sites, Sony sites, library sites etc. for almos
    t one month to find a solution to this problem.
    I couldn't imagine that we had bought a device (Sony 650 Touch) that did not hold the correct software nor the correct manual. Unbelievable.
    To those who come after me... go to THIS SITE http://ebookstore.sony.com/download/
    and download the application for PC (top left) orMAC (top right). It takes time, but it works !
    I'm just so happy now !!

  • Unable to transfer ebooks to my sony prs 505

    Since I bought my new laptop with windows 8 I have had unsolvable problems and can still not transfer an ebook to my sony prs 505. I am having assertion failure, port error messages and licensing error messages. Can I please talk to someone over the phone so I can describe what is happening. The last time someone helped me by sharing my computer I had 190 talk windows that I had to close manually.

    Chris,
    This is a known issue that happens once in awhile, and honestly it isn't good news.
    What it means, basically, is that due to an -extremely- obscure issue with the activation server, the ID you've used to authorize ADE 1.5 is corrupted (on our end, at the server). We have been trying to figure this out for awhile now, with little success.
    You'll need to de-authorize and then re-authorize with a NEW adobeID:
    1. Launch Digital Editions 1.5
    2. Enter the key-combination of Cmd-Shift-D (Mac OS X) or Ctrl-Shift-D (Windows)
    3. At the dialog, confirm that you wish to de-activate the machine
    4. Quit Digital Editions
    5. Restart ADE, and re-authorize with a NEW AdobeID. It doesn't have to be your Adobe support account ID, it can be anyhting that you can remember.
    Now, at this point I'm not sure if your existing ebooks will automatically be re-migrated to the new account. I'm checking with Engineering to find out..

  • Sony PRS-T1

    The Adobe Digital Editions software on my PC does not recognize my Sony PRS-T1 reader.
    The reader does not appear in the library (as a new line) on the PC.

    The back door to go from ADE to Sony Reader PSR-T1
    Download book to Digital Editions, close it.  Go to My Documents, to My Digital Editions folder--open it.  Pick the file of the book you want on your Reader and right click on it--go to open with--choose Reader for PC.  The book should open in Reader for PC (you will need to log in)-- click the back arrow.  You should be on the home page and the book should show in My Library.  Transfer from Reader for PC to the Reader as usual.
    I hope this will help you.

  • Adobe reader for PC using Sony PRS T3--Can not sign in/read books

    I bought a Sony PRS T3 that uses Adobe reader for PC(Available from https://ebookstore.sony.com/download)to download pdf books. First to set it up, I installed the software and plugged in the reader. Then I was presented with this screen. Remember I have signed up for two accounts--One sony's e reader store and one adobe account. First I use the sony reader store account as asked:
    I use my own email obviously, and then I am presented with a second screen on top of the existing log in screen. I use my Adobe Account here:
    After that, I am looped by the same pop up again and again and this keeps on happening despite me putting the right password AND checking the credentials to see if they work on adobe's site(yes they do). I am presented with no errors, just that login pop up again and again:
    Please help me solve this problem and the sad part is I am already past the 30 day refund period and I opened the reader today. Thanks in advance.

    This is the view of myself and many others... from what I am reading on the forums this app sucks... is horrid... does not work.
    I used the Reader Library app since I got my ebook from sony over a year ago never had real bad issures with it till now.. I look for updates and find this one only to have it hang my computer for such long periods of time... i have a quad core desktop with fairly new hardrives and lots of memory , in fact we use it to online game with heavy user apps..
    I try to use this new Reader app and it has to be the worst i have tried .. i even tried a few others when i started having such problems with your app. Others run fine. but can not read my DRM books.. truly sad..
    Whoever wrote this needs a new job.. never writing software again.
    this sounds harsh but you are running away customers ... big time.
    or do you think you will keep them cause of your name... Nope.. people will mover to what ever is easiest to use. this is not supposed to be diffucult.. but your company is making it so.
    REmember .. KISS is the base of all systems that work and advance.
    your original Reader Library program did that it worked and you didn't need a degree to run it.
    Someone in your company does need to get this info and get a soultion or you will loose more customers.. I will not recomend this product at this time or until you get it right. I have promoted your products in the past 20+ yrs. but if this is how you treat loyalty for get us.

  • Can't see sony PRS-505 in digital editions

    Have just downloaded  ebook into digital editions on a new computer. (installed yesterday). On old computer, when I plugged in my sony prs-505 it showed up in digital editions, i dragged and dropped the book onto the sony - hey presto!
    The sony is not showing on digital editions so can't drag and drop - have tried all drives in the computer.
    How do I get the reader to show in digital editions? Thanks - K - Kiwi

    You have to install the sony library, available here: http://ebookstore.sony.com/download/
    After installing the sony library your Reader will be shown in digital editions.

  • Sony PRS-350, Reader, ADE, PDF, EPUB, HELP

    Don't want to say how many hours I've spent trying to download two books from my local digital library to my new Sony PRS-350 e-reader.
    My setup:
    Windows XP Svc Pk 3, IE 8
    Sony PRS-350 e-reader, listed as a compatible device with my area's digital library
    Authorized my computer and device on both Adobe Digital Editions and Sony Reader sites
    I bought the Sony for borrowing from the library, rather than having to buy.
    Downloaded a PDF book from the digital library to ADE but was unable to send it to the e-reader
    Downloaded an EPUB book that is nowhere to be found on my PC and also not on ADE [and obviously not on the e-reader]
    When downloading/attempting to download, the Sony Reader window opens up telling me "this computer is not authorized to preview this book".
    I am not trying to buy a book from the Sony Store, only trying to download what I have borrowed from my library.
    I've sent emails to the local library which supports the digital library, but it is too early to expect to hear back from anyone and I also hope that someone here will have some thoughts based on the information I have provided. I must be missing a step but after reading the instructions on the e-reader and online [and some posts here], I am no closer to figuring out what I am doing wrong.
    Thanks to all for any information. I am bleary-eyed and need to get away from the screen. Will definitely check back later.

    It may be useful to mention this (the need to install the Sony library software and the no-function on Mac)  in the help for moving books from ADE to supported e-readers (the PRS-350 is on the list of supported devices), since it clearly states that ADE will recognize e-readers when you connect them to an authorized PC and will prompt you to authorize the ereader. I have been trying for two days to get it to work and authorize my e-reader...
    Grateul for your post, though, so I can stop my attempts.

  • PRS-600 Continual Page Advancing

    A little while ago my PRS-600 started continually changing pages when the 'next page' button is pressed. Doesn't happen all the time, seems to be random. The only way to stop it is to push the 'back page' button.
    Swiping the screen still works no problem, and has become my default.
    Anyone else having this problem? any fixes?

    Hello and welcome to the forums,
    The PRS-600 has more than one way to turn the page, you can also turn the page using the touch screen.
    If the issue remains regardless of how the page is turned, reset your Sony Reader by following the instructions here:
    http://www.kb.sony.com/selfservice/docu ... d=C1006375
    If its a physical issue with turning the page forward but not back, as if a button is sticking, contact support for service options.

  • Prs 600 blank pages

    Our PRS 600 Sony Reader seems to have a problem reading pdf files from the memory card. We have tried 2 different cards with same result. Examples: read 10 pages then blank 10 pages over & over.... read 6 - 15 pages & rest of book is blank...... or one the print was extremely small & couldn't be enlarged. What is the problem?
    Wanted to add that these files read fine on the computer....and further testing shows it doesn't matter if the file is on the card or on the internal memory..... really puzzling.

    Thank you for your post.
    I would recommend that you first try a soft reset to see if that resolves the issue and a hard reset if it still persists:

    Is the issue occurring with all PDF files? Due to the way that some PDF files are formatted you may encounter rendering or speed issues with individual files. If the PDF file isn't locked and you have Adobe Acrobat on your computer you may find that using the PDF Optimizer may help make the file a little more leaner to load quicker on the Reader and also sometimes you can improve the layout of a PDF simply by using the "Save As" command.

  • How to create a new Activity with report

    I would want to know how I do to create a link in a report that connects me to the page of the Client to add a new record of activity if i want.
    Substantially this link allows me to create a new activity in an agency that I directly select from the report.
    Thank Vale.

    Hi
    You should use the observer user for performing read-only operations.
    This is one of the users that is created when you installed AccAD.
    Here is the section that mentions it from our administration guide:
    You are asked to provide passwords for the root, admin, and observer
    users. Make note of these passwords since you will be required to provide them later.
    When the installation is complete, log out root and log on again as admin.
    Important
    Perform any additional operations using the secured admin account. You can use the observer account to access the AccAD Administrator web UI in read-only mode only; this user cannot log on to the machine.
    Best,
    Zeev
