Problem opening Adobe Digital Editions 4.0

I have installed Adobe Digital Editions 4.0 but when I try to open it it gives an error - encountered a problem and will be closed PLEASE HELPProb

I'm not sure about the Kobo, but many ereaders show similar messages when connected. While they are connected you cannot do anything on the reader directly, you can only do things via the PC. (Most cameras seem to work that way as well.) So probably the Kobo is working correctly.
What should happen is that while that message is showing on the Kobo, the Kobo shows up in Library view on ADE.
Should be ok with v1.7.2 or v2.0; but v2.0 has lots of bugs that can stop it installing properly or working properly if you do once get it installed.
When the Kobo is plugged in and showing that message:
Does it show up as a device on your ADE 1.7.2?
Does it show up as a device on Windows Explorer?
What OS are you on? ADE2.0 has issues with XP and Vista: see http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editions/kb/installing-digital-editions-20-windows.html

Opened adobe digital edition anonymously and now can't use book on other computer

I didn't realise I needed to open adobe digital editions with my name in order to access the book I purchased from more than one device. How can I remedy this situation? the publisher is not being overly helpful

This is a vicious trap that Adobe lays for unsuspecting customers.
When you register 'without ID', ADE creates an anonymous/implicit ID with limited powers (eg can't be used to share with other devices).
Whenever you first load a DRM book, that copy of the book is associated with whatever ID the computer is registered to at the time.
Any book you load while this anonymous ID is active gets associated with that ID, and can't be read on any other device.
When you properly register your computer with a real ID, that old anonymous ID is lost.
Now you don't have any devices that can read the book.
The only way I know round this is to use a DRM stripper such as epubee BEFORE you deauthorize the device.
I do NOT advocate using such code to get around the valid limitations placed on a DRM book.
However, where the problem arises only because of the ineptness of Adobe's ADEPT DRM infrastructure and its implementation,
such a measure is totally justifiable.

Updated book download problem in Adobe Digital Editions

Problem:
I have downloaded a book in Adobe Digital Edition. it downloaded successfully. But after some days vendor emailed me to re-download the same book, becuase it has some invalid content. I tried to re-download the book, but it is showing old book. On the other hand i download the same book on another computer, i got new book. is it Adobe Digital Editions problem or something else?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks

You need to download the book, which will come as a .acsm file which is a pointer to the content rather than the content itself.
You then need to open the .acsm file with ADE; that will force download of a .epub file which contains the real data (encrypted if it is a DRM book).
You may well then find that you have two copies of the book on your computer and showing up in ADE, both the old and the new.
You can delete the old one if you are sure you don't need it.

Problem whit Adobe Digital Editions

Install Adobe Digital Editions on my PC a while, so register with an email address ([email protected]) now I bought a laptop and as I do not have this e-mail, when you install the program as id put my other direction ([email protected]) My problem is that the two are now active and I can share my books with each other. How I can fix it?

Problems with Adobe digital editions

I tried to authorize Adobe digital edition in my new Tablet, but I received an error message, so I decided to authorize with another personal email account. Now, the problem is that I can not download those books I had bought previously. How can I reauthorize Adobe digital edition with my previous email? How can I avoid the error message I received when I tried to authorize with that email?

You must use your original Adobe account to real books bought and downloaded while using that account.
I'm a but confused by I tried to authorize Adobe digital edition in my new Tablet, ADE does not run on any tablet except a full Windows 8 tablet.
What id you try to authorize? (1) ADE running on a Windows 8 tablet, (2) an app running on a normal tablet, or (3) ADE itselft running on a computer.
In any case, you must deauthorize the new ID, and then reauthorize with your original ID.
On ADE, the deauthorization is ctrl-shift-D (cmd-shift-D on Mac). If you can't reauthorize with your original ID, post detailks and the message you get when trying.
For a tablet app, see help for that app for deauthorization/reauthorization.

Probleme mit Adobe Digital Editions

Hallo an alle,
ich habe mir zum ersten Mal ein Ebook runtergeladen und
wollte es im ADE lesen.
Leider komme ich über die erste Seite des Buches nicht
hinaus, da ich immer wieder eine Fehlermeldung bekomme:
Adobe Digital Editions hat ein Problem festgestellt und muss
beendet werden.
Problemsignatur:
AppName: digitaleditions1x5.exe AppVer: 9.0.791.27 ModName:
digitaleditions1x5.exe
ModVer: 9.0.791.27 Offset: 0035c19e
Kann mir vielleicht jemand helfen.

First. If you are using Digital Editions from a mandatory roaming profile - we don't support that. You are quickly going to run out of activations, and then not be able to activate again.
If however you are using a tool to clean up, I would suggest tuning that tool so that it doesn't delete the ADE executable.

Problem running Adobe Digital Editions 4.0.2 on Win8

After installing it, when I try to run it, nothing happens, no error dialog, no window, nothing,,,
Suggestions?

With more details: I found an answer to a similar question on the Forum from TTWTT (TTMTT), who posted a link to download versions 2 and 3 of Digital Editions at Adobe Digital Editions downloads (Adobe Digital Editions downloads). I had tried find these downloads on Adobe's far from helpful website with total lack of success. Version 3 seems to be working.
Whether Adobe is working is a totally different question.
So far it appears that Adobe Digital Editions 4.02 is a disaster, best avoided.
My thanks to TTMTT, and if I could give credit for a correct answer I would.

Problems with adobe digital edition

I did a epub tested on many readers, but everything goes wrong in the digital edition. I lost alignment and centering of the images, the colors of titles ....I don't know what else to do. Before aligning the image in your div, the text was correctly diagrammed thereafter lost all alignment.
What can I do to understand the distintictions or variations between Adobe Digital Edition and the other readers

Cant open Adobe Digital Editions 2.0

Now when i click to open the adobe editions an error comes up and says Adobe ditgital editions 2.0 has stopped working...windows is looking for a solution. Then the error goes away but still cant open the program..anyone else having this problem?

Try the older more reliable v1.7.2
~~~~~~~~~
There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0 (and 2.0.1). 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.
http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editions/kb/cant-install-digital-editions.html
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
Some people have found ADE trying to upgrade automatically.
It appears (not 100% sure) that if you install ADE2.0 as a new install (not as an upgrade) that your 1.7.2 will continue to run.
Probably best to say no if 2.0.x installation asks if you want to migrate your library.
