Ereader for iPad/iPhone

I was just wondering when in December Sony plans to release their iPhone reader app? I check everyday and all the website says is in December. December is almost over folks... please update.. Thank you !

Any app that involves another company has factors beyond our control, apologies for the delay of your anticipated reader app. unfortunately there are no ETAs avail as many factors and companies are involved.
on this site we can help with Tech support and do not have information to assist you, unfortunately this is not an area we can help for 3rd party applications. check the app site if there is one for more information.

Complaints for iPad 2/Customer Support

Please bear with me, I am new and extremely dissatisfied/frustratedwith Apple’s hardware, software and customer support.
I received my apple iPad 2 the day before yesterday (orderedthrough AAFES). I am abroad working inKuwait with the military. I charged thedevice (of course with the supplied charger and cable), plugged it into mylaptop, which has the most recent iTunes, registered my product and powered iton. After less than a minute of checkingthe device I noticed a dead (not misfired, but dead) pixel. My first reactive step was to reset the ipad,hoping that would help. Reset was successful, but did not correct the dead pixel. I then connected to the net through my wifi router and d/l a couple basecolor photos to see if this would show some reaction from the pixel, the pixeldid not change… it’s dead.
I took the iPad 2 to the nearest distributor in Kuwait. The representative verified that it was adead pixel and notified me that Kuwait doesn’t “officially” support iPad 2 yetand that they have just gained the support for iPad 1 and that I must contactApple in the States.
I went through the motions and attempted to do an RMA through the net… BUT, Apple will not mail a device to an APO (their reasoninghad something to do with signature confirmation not being available at APO…which I know as a fact is bogus because I work for the APO and yes, we sign forALL accountable items… delivery confirmation, insured, certified and registeredmail on the PS Form 3883 and when a customer picks up their parcel, they sign aPS Form 3849, so please Apple, get your information straight!). So because of this dilemma, I had to call thecustomer service center.
Luckily I have VOIP because it’s roughly $1 to $2 a minuteto call the US from Kuwait (no, 800 numbers aren’t toll free for internationalcalls, just in case anyone did not know that). The representative was kind and curious, so no complaint with himpersonally. He asked me to go to a localstore, I filled him in on all the steps I took and asked if I can just ship itto a service center and if they could send me a shipping label (yes, Apple,good customer service departments actually DO pay for a shipping label), he putme on hold to see if he could get approval from senior officer, I mean seniorsupport specialist (I’m guessing it was a “lead” and not a “supervisor”). He told me that was a no go. He asked when I would be in America on leave…this is not an option for me in my position. The ONLY option he could give me was for me to ship my device to a friend/familymember, have them go to a retail store, have them “test” the device, then havemy family member/friend ship it back to me. This is very very very problematic for me for soooo many reasons. First off, it seemed as though, through hisvoice/tone that they would not replace my item with a new item… meaning, theywould repair the BRAND NEW LEMON for me. Second thing is, my only point of contact, my mother, is inFayetteville/Ft. Bragg, North Carolina. The rep told me that the nearest service center is in Raleigh, NorthCarolina. That is about a two hourdrive, or course depending on traffic; meaning my mom, would have to dedicate aminimum of 4 hours driving. Next issueis economics, gas is not cheap, and my mom drives a (constant) 4x4 FordExplorer… $$$. Not Apple’s fault, Iknow. Next thing is, if they arerepairing the device, how long would that take? She would probably have to drop it off and pick it up later on in theweek. That now puts us to 8 hours of traveltime, and pretty much two days out of my mom’s schedule. And the last issue would be, I should now berequired to keep a LEMON. I want a brandnew, fully functional device, THAT is what I paid for.
How can a company which, according to its June earningsreport, has $76.2 billion in cash and marketable securities treat theirconsumers in such a fashion??? (According to the latest statement from the US Treasury, the governmenthas a cash balance of $73.8 billion, as of Wednesday, FYI.) This is total and utter bullsh*t.
I will next rant about my hates about their software; I mustremind you that I’m a newb to iTunes and supporting software (I own a coupleiPod classics and had an iPhone 1, but the software continues to mutate).
The iPad 2 Safari browser will not natively allow one todownload… anything. But for $5 you cango ahead and pay Apple $5 to buy their Safari downloader.
In order to download “FREE” apps from iTunes, you MUST enter your creditinformation… Apple has two work-arounds for this, you can BUY an iTunes prepaidcard… um, guys, please define to me the word, FREE; next (as the rep told me onthe phone) I can register with my credit card, and delete it out later on…hmmmmm I bet it is still saved on the server. Anyone know what just happened to Sony’s network recently? Yeah, I’m wondering about the legality ofthis, but I’m not a lawyer and US e-laws are about 20 years out dated anyways.
As I said earlier, I reset my device, from the device. I tried to do this again, and it would justhang on the black screen with the apple logo and a non-responsive statusbar. So I tried to reset through iTunes. You can’t just reset the device,you are REQUIRED to have an internet connection and download the newestsoftware. This is fine if you’re always plugged in, I might not even complain if I was in the US right now… but torequire that is ridiculous… not to mention, if one were to have their device jailbroken (yup, Apple, you lost in court, so deal with it… not just in America,America took a long time to finally tell you that, MULTIPLE countries sewed you and found your tactics unlawful); this makes it difficult to use you free,non-big-brother approved software.
You cannot natively test your video, audio or microphone quality. Wow, you guys could at leastload an Apple commercial on your device so someone could watch and listen toit. So I have to d/l skype just to testmy microphone (I’m sure there are many other programs, but the fact that I haveto go out of my way just to make sure the device works, is just, wow, non-expletivesjust can’t explain it).
And last, and probably least, they could have put a couple songs, videos, pictures or games on there. Not a big deal, but if this is supposed to be such an awesome device,Apple, show it off, don’t just advertise and trick the end users into believingthat they will have a nifty device right out of the box. Do you other users actually pay the extracouple hundred dollars for your programs like Apple wants?.. or are you alljail breaking and unlocking?
I’m sorry to all you die hard Apple lovers if you areoffended, and I’m sorry if I’m naïve or maybe a little ignorant to the “Appleway of life,” but if Microsoft did this, everyone would flip out. Heck, they got sued for adding extra stuff totheir OS; but, it’s ok for Apple to make their devices so minimalistic that it’shardly better than a word processor with web browsing capability and a couplecameras? I like my Kindle a lot more, it’san ebook, advertised as an ebook, works as an ebook, and they added some cool extras like text to voice and web browsing.
Ok, I’m done for now. Can anyone please give me some information on how I can get this POS replaced with a brand new, in the box, sealed and fully functional (lol, well,as functional as the iPad 2’s come, out of the box)? If not, how can I spread my complaint as farand wide as possible? And with that,does anyone know the buyer’s remorse policy on electronics? (oh, AAFES won’t give one ounce of supportfor Apple products, normally they would give a 15 day, but for Apple, becausethere have been SO MANY issues, they no longer assist, as a matter of fact,when you buy an Apple device from them, you have to sign a paper saying thatyou understand that if the device is defective or inoperable in any way, thatyou will not ask AAFES for help… at least in the local PX’s here.)
PS I appologize for the typoeees, I cut and pasted all this and for some reason it smushed some of the words together.

I’m not quite sure what you’re referencing as“misinformation” or “ridiculous statements,”
I was referring to these:
The iPad 2 Safari browser will not natively allow one todownload… anything.
Not true. It can download PDFs and Images. iOS apps are downloaded through the AppStore. But not allowing you to download just any old files is what keeps iOS free of viruses and malware. It's a security feature.
pay Apple $5 to buy their Safari downloader.
Not true. Apple does not make and charge for any Safari Downloader app.
In order to download “FREE” apps from iTunes, you MUST enter your creditinformation…
Not true, as the link posted above proves.
So I tried to reset through iTunes.
No you didn't. You can't reset the device through iTunes. You can restore it, which means re-installing the OS, which of course requires an internet connection to download it.
if one were to have their device jailbroken (yup, Apple, you lost in court, so deal with it…
Not true. Apple didn't lose anything in court. They never even went to court. It was the Copyright Office.
MULTIPLE countries sued you and found your tactics unlawful
Not true. No countries have sued Apple.
You cannot natively test your video, audio or microphone quality.
Not true. iPad is designed to be synced with iTunes, which is where your music and video is stored. The AppStore has many easily downloadable free apps that use the microphone. Videos and music can both very easily be played in the web browser.
they could have put a couple songs, videos, pictures or games on there.
Why? Your iTunes Library should already have songs and videos in. Pictures are easily obtainable, and so are many free games. People would complain like crazy if Apple put loads of crap nobody asked for on their iPad from new like you get on a Windows PC.
don’t just advertise and trick the end users into believing that they will have a nifty device right out of the box.
The iPad does everything it is advertised as doing right out of the box. But you will need videos, music and games to put on it. Same as a CD player plays CDs out of the box, but you need CDs to play on it. A car will take you on journeys, but you need gas to put in it.
Do you other users actually pay the extra couple hundred dollars for your programs like Apple wants?.
Of course people buy apps for their devices. There are hundreds of thousands of apps available. You expect Apple to provide you with every app ever made for free, pre-installed? Get real! People also buy applications for computers and other electronic devices, like they buy CDs for their CD player, DVDs for their DVD player. Nobody expects the manufacturers to provide them for free.
it’s ok for Apple to make their devices so minimalistic that it’s hardly better than a word processor with web browsing capability and a couple cameras?
If you had read reviews of the iPad and read the product info pages on Apple's website, you would've known EXACTLY what the iPad comes with in terms of hardware and software. It's all there in black and white.
I like my Kindle a lot more, it’s an ebook, advertised as an ebook, works as an ebook
The iPad does everything exactly as advertised - if it didn't, Apple would be in trouble with advertising regulators all over the world. Millions of people like the iPad, but if you prefer the Kindle, why buy an iPad? That makes no sense at all.
I have seen and read dozens upon dozens of reviews on the iPad and iPad 2…
Hmmm... somehow I doubt it. If you had, there is absolutely no way you could've had so much misinformation and misconceptions about what the iPad is, does, and comes with.

IBooks Author for iPad ?

How can I create iBooks on iPad ?

Obviously, by not investing in an iOS version of IBA and more completely developed versions of Pages-Numbers-Keynote for iOS Apple is trying to keep iOS users still attached to their laptops and desktops.
Does not suggest praise to me!
I don't want to own and service two computers; and the iPhone and iPad are computers. Look back a few years. Both of these devices are more powerful than Macs or PCs were years ago.
My first computer was a (in the UK) Sinclair Spectrum with a soft rubber keypad.
There were few programmes and we mostly wrote our own using Basic, followed by a BBC and later an Amiga!
Each was breaking techknowlogy in its day.... which is the point, technology has an habit of moving on in leaps and bounds - we have to keep up with it.
Apple are not going to hold back on their aim to produce more and more high tech products.
Each person has to make a choice in life based on the needs, their wants and their cash availablility.
The iPad has become a boon to people like my wife who has ditched her laptop and is happy with her iPad two and ditched her rubbish Sony Reader for a mini iPad to fill up with ibooks, she is not alone.
However, your comments were about not having iBooks Author or a verson available for iPads.
Same reason Apple will not make downgraded iPhones to compete with Samsung et al.
At this time iWorks was forced into a rebuild be user complaints and still does not have the functionality of the Mac versions, although I confess I seldon use it.
iBA would need to be downgraded and less functional - so its not going to happen for years if ever.
As I said, if you want to make eBooks on your iPad, buy Book Creator or similar.
I think what iBA does need.. is a none Apple controlled forum to debate users ideas etc,.!!!

My sony ereader will not connect to Adobe Digital Editions

My sony ereader will not connect to Adobe Digital Editions even though my computer is authorized

When you register your ereader with SONY, you'll need to make sure that the
Reader Library entries were created on your hard drive for the ereader to
work properly. Only some of them are supported by ADE. There's a list in
the HELP section of ADE.
Also, there have been some problems with the PRS-T1 model.
Hope this helps!

Adobe reader app not working with sony ereader app.

Adobe reader on my android tablet does not accept login & therefore I can't get my Sony ereader app to work.
How do I fix this?

I am having the same problem. While they might not have anything to do with each other, it seems to be connected to Adobe somehow .When I launch the App on my phone or my tablet,It asks for my sony e reader log in and password. When I put that information in, it then asks me for my adobe ID conformation ..Specifically it says "Sony Reader Store is using Adobe DRM technology for rights protected content. Please enter your Adobe ID and password to proceed". So you can see how I might think they they are somehow connected. When I put in my Adobe ID and password, nothing happens..it just keeps going to the above mentioned screen and asking for the same info over and over. This happens on multiple devices (3 devices to be exact) so I am a little confused as to what I am doing wrong . I am sure I am missing a step. Perhaps I am asking my question in the wrong forum, but if sony ereader and adobe arent connected then why do they need my adobe log in ? I am not sure if the origifnal poster and I are having the same problem, but any help would be appreciated.

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.

Need help w/ Adobe Digital Edition (ADE) to download to Nexus 7 using Sony eReader

I am wondering if I can download an etextbook on Adobe Digital Edition (ADE) from my labtop to my Nexus 7 using Sony eReader.
I am trying to do this and coming up w/ this problem on my Nexus 7 - Sony eReader currently.
It will not accept Adobe ID under "Adobe ID Confirmation" on Sony eReader.
It also says:
ATTENTION: You need to enter the Adobe ID originally associated with your Reader Store account. Usually, this ID is automatically created.
Do you know will these programs/devices be compatable w/ each other? If not can I use Ipad as a last resort?

You should install an Adobe DRM compatible app on the Nexus 7.
I suggest Bluefire; also consider Akdiko or Overdrive but some people have issues registering them. Some tablets come with such an app preinstalled. Authorize the tablet from within the app to use your Adobe ID (details vary from app to app, usually somewhere within Settings)

Sony eReader PRS-650

not sure if this forum can help, but it's never failed me before....
New Sony eREader PRS-650. Worked like a dream for the first few days but now every time I connect it to to mac the reader library software crashes and closes, so can't transfer the eBooks. It seemed to happen after asking it to Sync. Any ideas?

Hi Sjennings,
If your download has failed this could be caused by background running applications or security settings. To correct this issue please try the following.
Reboot your PC and re-download again from your account (remember once you have purchased an ebook you do not have topurchases it again).
If you are still getting an error, please try the following.
Close all applications running in the background. This includes exiting/disabling items running in the system tray (you can close these by right clicking and selecting exit, disable or close from the menu).
If you are trying to access the internet from a work PC or connection you may not have full access to the internet. Please check with your MIS/IT (Network Administrator) department to verify your access rights.
If you are on a dial up connection please disable any download accelerators before attempting to re-download you eBook.

I had to reinstall ADE on another computer. Now it doesn't recognize my Sony eReader

I had to reinstall ADE on another computer. Now it doesn't recognize my Sony eReader. How do I get it to recognize it? Do I need to "unauthorize" my ADE id on the 1st device? Is that the problem? How the hell do you talk to a live body at Adobe? This is ridiculous.
Ted

Hello - the chat service for ADE helped me find an answer. With Sony ereaders, you always need to have the Sony reader app installed on the same machine as ADE. There are some drivers installed with the Sony reader app that are needed. Since I did that, ADE now acknowledges my Sony PRS-350.
Here is a link: https://ebookstore.sony.com/download/
The chat line was very helpful with this; they tell me you cannot call in to get ADE support - you can only use the chat box.

Reeldirector for iPad

I bought Reeldirector for iPad, and i can't use it. I created New Projects with short videos taken with my digital camera Sony Cybershot transferred in my PC with itunes. I want to conect these videos to have a movie. After "Rendering", the first time this project, it works. And, randomly, it does not work at all.
When I activate the project, I get a black screen, with indicated:
Modified (null) (0.00)
Rendered
I uninstalled and reinstalled many times this application without success.
I tried to contact the provider Nexvio without answers.
Thank you for your help.

Hi,
Unfortunately, you aren't the only user of this app with rendering issues, check the "reviews" here.

Sony eReader FAILS-DON'T BUY

I'm trying to get the word out that the Sony eReader fails. For me it's about every 4 months. They will not give me my money back! Epic Fail. Stay clear of this product. Go with the Kindle.

Well first off, bummer man. Sounds like you are really having a hard time.
A question; If you keep having problems with Sony products, why have you purchased 4 of them?
My understanding is that the audio capability is primarily for Audio Books, not for using the eReader as an MP3 player. I still think it should do so, but I am not surprised in that this firmware version (1.0) cannot do it. I would suggest being patient.
I agree with you that there are problems with the 950. I have thousands of eBooks, and their reader software and OS software are not really designed to handle that quantity. Yet they advertise that thousands can be stored. The web browser does not save usernames and passwords. Very annoying. The eBook main screen is not configurable. And I am finding more issues as I continue to use the device.
All this said, I am playing the patient game. As a reader, this is a pretty cool device. Reading is legible and page turns are fast. Web browsing is decent, even supporting pages that have real-time updating elements (which only update those elements, not the whole screen).
So what I am going to do is use these forums to make suggestions on how they can improve their device. Support is not going to be able to help you, as the problems we are both seeing are embedded in the device. Only a new firmware can fix things.
I know this response is not going to make you happy, but maybe together, you, myself, and others who believe Sony's eReader can be a fantastic device, can pool our suggestions and get Sony to focus on those items we think are the most important.

PROBLEMS opening some ebooks in sony ereader, error message "Protected by Digital Rights Management"

There are a dozen or so ebooks that I can't open in my sony ereader and I am not sure whether because there is only (1) adobe ID authorized on the ereader...whereas on my laptop / desktop, I can open these ebooks and the (2) adobe ID are authorized for the laptop computer.
If the solution is to add authorization of the 2nd Adobe ID to the ereader, how can I go about getting the authorized added on?

I would ask in then Digital Editions forum, Adobe Digital Editions
