Something worked for me... Install or Update of Adobe Digital Editions

This may or may not work for you.
I could not update my DE, I just ended up in a loop.
I set my default browser to Mozilla Firefox, fired up my out-of-date DE and everything then worked. It seems to be related to IE7 which I had.
Incidentally, MF is always useful to have around, just in case....

I find the older v1.7.2 has many fewer bugs than the newer V2.0 or 2.0.1.
There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0.  (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.

    I recently updated my Adobe Digital Editions, but now I can't load my recently checked out books onto my Nook. I try but get a red circle with a slash through it when I drag the book to the Nook icon and it doesn't work. Do you know what I can do?
    Thanks

    I tried to email the developer (Canada) but the email for technical support is not a good email. My email got returned to me undeliverable? Not sure what to do next? I also want to get the game going again cause I made purchases to get more coins to play the game & now I can't even use it? Very frustrating!!!

    What Adobe Digital app on your iPad? If you are talking about a third-party app (like Bluefire Reader) you need to connect your iPad to your computer, open iTunes, select the iPad, and select Apps in the Sidebar. Scroll down to the File Sharing section, select the app you plan on using, select Add (bottom right), navigate to where the book is on your computer, select the book and sync your iPad.

  • I am having problems with recent update of adobe digital editions

    I tried to download an open book from library and when I tried to transfer to my Kobo I got message
    "CE-COPY-NOTALLOWED"no permission to copy book.  When I tried to return it I got Message
    Ë-BAD-LOAN-ID"   I have downloaded other books with no problem, but have had other problems with this version . i.e.  the program often shuts down when I return books to library,  If I try to download 2 books at a time, when downloading the 2nd book, it tells me I am still downloading the first book and says I already have it.  Is anyone having these problems and does anyone have a solution.  I would like to go back to 1st version of Adobe Digital if possible, it worked much better for me.

  • How do I uninstall Adobe Digital Editions 3 (for Mac)???

    Dear kind, knowledgable Adobe Staff member-
    As a user of SEVERAL Adobe products, I am really NOT loving the fact that there is NO CLEAR answer that I can find here (OR even in doing a Google search) for how to completely REMOVE/UNINSTALL Adobe Digital Editions 3 (for Mac)...and there are a couple/few UNanswered Adobe Communities posts (such as this one) asking this SAME question!
    If you're going to create an installer for the MacOS platform (which does NOT have the built-in Winblows uninstall "feature"), then PLEASE DO either include a uninstaller tool (either installed during the install process, built into the installer as an option, OR have clear, official, and easily accessible step-by-step instructions on how to do this!
    You've lost ANY shot of my returning to ADE software by not having these features...please do help me re-instill some "faith" in your company's responsiveness to the current LACK of support that I am experiencing in attempting to remove this unwanted software from my computer!
    Cordially,
    Albe Sure

    I DO very much appreciate the swift effort at attempting to help...but that is NOT a working resolution for me.
    1)  As I was very clear on in my OP and title, I am seeking assistance with uninstalling Adobe Digital Editions 3 (for Mac)...
    2)  BECAUSE Adobe is distributing this software as an "installer", I am not even going to begin to trust simply deleting the Adobe Digital Editions 3 app from my applications folder...no way!  I want to thoroughly remove ALL TRACES of this application (EVERYTHING that was installed by the installer, or later by the application itself, onto my computer.  Simply deleting the app fro my my applications folder will NOT be sufficient to achieve this goal.
    3)  As the name would suggest (and the step-by-step instructions would collaborate, the CC Cleaner Tool is only for Creative Cloud installation and removal problems (and to the very best of my knowledge, Adobe Digital Editions is certainly NOT a CC program.)
    "A" for effort, but not so much on providing a relevant/working Adobe Digital Editions 3 (for Mac OS) uninstall/removal suggestion(s)...STILL looking for a working solution!

  • Is there an Adobe digital Edition version suitable for Booq Verne -android-?

    Hi everyone,
    I would like to know if I can install a version of Adobe Digital Edition in my Booq Verne, Android based. I've buyed some epub book and all I get is an  .acsm or a ashx file that only can be opened with the mentioned software. The ADE doesn't allow me to save the book in another format, as you know.
    Thanks in advance for your answers!

    Not as such.  However there are a few apps that will let you read DRM books.
    Check out in the reader store
    DL Reader: that one has worked best for me
    Overdrive: could be good for library books, sometimes stroppy about getting your Adobe ID registration working
    DReader: I couldn't get it to behave, but might be worth trying for you

  • Unable to install ADOBE Digital Edition 2.0.1 on Windows 7

    Hi
    My current installation of Windows 7 contains Framework NET 4.0 Full.
    It is up-tp-date with this.
    I'm unable to install ADOBE Digital Edition 2.0.1 on this system, because
    of the prerequisite required to install this packege.
    ADOBE Digital Edition 2.0.1. requires NET 3.5 on Windows 7 (and this is old/outdated today).
    When will ADOBE Digital Edition 2.0.1 install on Windows 7 with NET 4?
    Any other ideas to get this up and running?
    Thanx

    You can install the different versions of .NET at the same time, and that is what you need to do for quite a few programs.
    Microsoft don't make them upward compatible.
    You could install the older v1.7.2 instead, much more relaible and I don't think (not sure) it as .NET requirement.
    ~~~~~~~~~
    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.

    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.

  • Install and use Adobe Digital Editions on a computer without internet access ?

    Hello,
    I have a pair of PCs, one of them, with Windows Vista, has never been connected to the internet since many years. It is used for word processing mostly. I didn't even bother to plug an ethernet cable inside or think about a Wifi USB key, in a way it's better that way, no useless distractions and no security threats.
    I want to use that offline PC for work, and it would require to use Adobe Digital Editions on that machine. I downloaded the offline standalone installer from adobe.com without problems, however, apparently, Adobe only accepts us to use the program after we have activated it through internet access.
    Does that mean there is simply no way out, and I can't use Digital Editions on my offline computer ?
    Would you perhaps know a solution to this issue ?
    Thank you VERY MUCH if you can help !
    Kind regards

    I don't think there is a way out.
    You could use it for non-DRM books without authorizing, but there are much better options (such as the free Calibre) for that anyway. http://calibre-ebook.com/
    If you make a temporary internet connection, then once authorized, you should not need internet access to read books you have got elsewhere and copied to it.

  • Fixed Layout EPUB, Buttons dont work with Adobe Digital Editions

    Hello Community,
    I am working with InDesign CC 2014.1 and Adobe Digital Editions 4 (ADE).
    I am developing a FXL epub. When viewing the exported epub with ADE the buttons don't work.
    I also tried to view other epubs as the one mentioned in this thread: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1684411
    No animations work.
    can someone help me with this problem?
    Thanks in advance.
    Stephan

    ADE is not a very good FXL EPUB reader. Try iBooks, Readium for Chrome or Kobo.

  • Do embedded bitmaps in fonts really work with Adobe Digital Editions?

    I just made an interesting observation:
    I had turned the glyphs of a ttf-font by 90 degrees but the program that I used left the embedded bitmaps in the EBDT tables of the font unrotated. Using this font for example with Word had the interesting result that the font sometimes showed up correctly and sometimes not, depending on the size of the text on the screen.
    Interestingly enough, using the same font as an embedded font with Adobe Digital Editions 1.6 the font showed always up correctly on all sizes of the text.
    For me this looks as if Adobe Digital Editions does currently not support embedded bitmaps in ttf - fontfiles.
    Anybody had the same experience or knows about an official statement from Adobe concerning this?

    Can't open PDFs, Initially received runtime error,updated Reader - new error Adobe Reader has stopped working, uninstalled re-installed same error message Adobe Reader has stopped working

    Assuming that you are in Win (which you haven't said), you can try using this tool to first remove all traces of previous versions of Reader:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, download the full offline Reader installer from 
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    and run it immediately after restarting your computer.

  • After installing adobe digital edition 2.0 it is not working

    Hi,
    I recently upgraded my system to Window 7. After upgrading i installed Adobe digital edition 2.0,in the download page the size was shown as 12.3MB, but actually when i down loaded it was only 5.6MB. After installing  it, when  i press close after the completion of installation the programs hangs. If i close program and open it again same issue. I tried uninstalling and re-installing but not use.

    Hello Sjpt
        In windows xp serivce pack-2, ADE 2.0 is working perfectly for few days only, but after few days ADE 2.0 is not opening. I dont know why it is not opening? Can anyone tell me reason behind this?
    If RUN>>MSCONFIG>GENERAL>DIAGNOSTIC STARTUP - LOAD BASIC DEVICES AND SERVICE ONLY > APPLY > OK and restarting the system then the ADE 2.0 is opening.
    If RUN>> MSCONFIG>GENERAL>NORMAL  STARTUP - LOAD ALL DEVICE DRIVERS AND SERVICES > APPLY > OK and restarting the system then the ADE 2.0 is NOT opening.  As you people are well aware that we cannot use the diagnostic startup since it will allow basic service and devices only.
    I have tried the following methods to overcome this issue (from internet)
    1. Uninstall Adobe Digital Editions using one of these two methods:
    Start > Programs > Adobe > Adobe Digital Editions > Uninstall
    Start > Settings > Control Panel > Add Remove Programs
    2. Initiate Uninstall
    3. In order to remove all remnants of Adobe Digital Editions /  Adobe Adept from the machine a "Registry Edit" will need to be  performed:
    Start > Run > Regedit
    4. Search for HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Adobe > Adept and Delete the full "Adept" folder
    5. Remove only the structures that are under the "SOFTWARE"  extensions. This will remove the Adobe ID / License and Activation Keys
    6. Clear any outstanding tasks that may be associated to Adobe  Digital Editions downloads
    C:\data\my digital editions
    C:\my documents\my digital editions
    7. Delete any documents within these folders:
    Restore > Tasks
    Restore > Failed
    8. Re-install Adobe Digital Editions
    9. I have updated Windows xp from SP2 to SP3
    The above methods didn't helped me to solve this issue. Then, i have used DIAGNOSTIC STARTUP and safe mode, it was opened, but not in normal user mode.
    Thanks,
    Mano.A
