Sony reader de-installation messes with adobe digital editions?

after sony reader programme took over my whole computer I removed the programme. unfortunately now adobe digital editions won't read any books any more. I remove and then reInstalled but it isn't helping at all. anyone know how to fix this?

When you have ADE (digital editions) open with  "bookshelves" page with a "Getting Started with Adobe Digital Editions" booklet in it,
enter cmd-shift-U, or menu/Help/Authorize Computer.
That will ask for your Adobe ID and password and authorize the computer.
Once that has been done you shouldn't need to do it again.
Sometimes you do need to if things go wrong, but you certainly shouldn't have to do it at all regularly.
When that has been done, plug in the Kobo; it should show up in the left pane of ADE.
Use "menu/Help/Authorize Device" and that will authorize your Kobo with the Adobe ID from the Mac.
You can then copy books by drag-dropping onto the Kobo within ADE

  • Screen reader use with Adobe Digital Editions

    What screen readers can be used with Adobe Digital Editions?
    Interested in suggestions of both commercial and freeware screen readers
    Particularly when using Digital Editions for EPUB ebooks 
    Thank you

    I have the same problem. I am also running Windows 7, however, within VirtualBox. I hope this makes no difference.
    I switched off firewall and reduced security settings to the lowest level. I installed and afterwards started the software having admin rights.
    The problem occurs with ADE 2, 3 and 4.
    The authorizations does not have an end. The green bar is moving for hours with the message "authorization running".
    Can anyone help??

    Editions  to see your Nook.)
    Getting your eBook on  to your Nook

  • 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!

  • Unable to access ebooks any longer with adobe digital edition

    unable to access ebooks any longer with adobe digital edition ..instead i keep getting the error message ''unable to access ebooks any longer with adobe digital edition''

    Not seen that message before, but two standard suggestions that may help.
    1) ~~~~~
    Sometimes ADE gets its registration/activation confused and in a semi-authorized state.
    Uninstalling and reinstalling does not help.
    Unfortunately, it often then gives misleading error messages about what is wrong.
    A common incorrect message informs you that the ID is already in use on another computer and cannot be reused.
    This can often be resolved by completely removing any authorization using ctrl-shift-D to the Library screen on ADE (cmd-shift-D if on Mac).
    Restart ADE, and then reauthorize with your (old) Adobe ID.
    In extreme cases on the mac, the following extra step has helped some people.  Navigate to /Users//Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions and drag the activation.dat file to the trash. If you are using 10.7, see Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 Lion. http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1265248?tstart=0
    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.

  • Is PRS-950 Compatible with Adobe Digital Edition?

    I was trying to check out books from my local public library and then transfer it to my new PRS-950 but the Adobe Digital Edition won't recognize the Reader, so I cannot authorize the reader with Adobe ID. How do I fix this problem? I also have the Sony Reader Library, which does not import the .acsm file downloaded from the local public library website. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    When you download the acsm file from the public library (ebook epub format), choose to Open it. That will cause Adobe Digital Editions to automatically start up and download the book. To find out where the file was placed, go to the Reading/Item Info menu in Adobe Digital Editions. My books were placed in /My Documents/My Digital Editions folder. Now go to Sony Reader Library to the File/Import Files menu, to the directory where Adobe Digital Editions saved your epub file, select the file and now it's in the Sony Reader Library and you have whatever time the library gave you to read it (2 weeks in my case). Hope this helps.

  • How can I get my e-mail address associated with Adobe Digital Editions?

    How can I get my e-mail address associated with Adobe Digital Editions?

    gjortega,
    Your sidekick may be relaying through a different server. If its on AT&T, it could be using cwmx.com for outgoing. However, cwmx.com only works for AT&T/Cingular EDGE customers. When on Wi-fi it won't allow you to send through it.
    Many internet providers, but not all, provide an authenticating SMTP server to use when travelling. If you configured your outgoing server to use the email providers authenticating SMTP server information on a port different from port 25, you will be able to use it on most networks. Some wireless networks filter a wider range of ports, such as some work places.
    This article discusses the issue in more detail:

    I tried to download the Adobe Digital Editions software and got a screen saying installation was complete, I appear to have Adobe Digital Editions 2.0 and Adobe Digital Editions icons in my applications folder, when I go to open the Adobe Digital Editions 2.0 Icon I am taken to a "bookshelves" page with a "Getting Started with Adobe Digital Editions" booklet in it.
    I do not know how to open the Adobe Digital Editions actual software so I can access the "set up assistant" to authorize my computer??????????????? It does not seem to want to open on it's own and I have no idea how to find it.  I do have an Adobe ID.
    I thank you in advance for any help you are able to provide. Once again I am not very computer literate so please be very specific.

  • I have a Kindle and have just purchased 4 new e-books - downloaded with Adobe Digital Editions. Now how do I get them on my Kindle?

    I have a Kindle and have just purchased 4 new e-books - downloaded with Adobe Digital Editions. Now how do I get them on my Kindle?

    To remove the book simply touch and hold the cover on the main page.  A little pop up will ask, remove?  Say yes.  The book content will de deleted.   The cover will remain on your main page with a little down arrow so that you can redownload it if you wan in the cloud view.  In the device view, it simply disappears.
    Note at the bottom of the page are a couple of switches, labeled cloun and device.  The device switch shows you books on your device.  The cloud page shows your whole catalog, and the down arrow allows you to bring down anything in your catalog to the device.

  • 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?

  • Problems I'm having with Adobe digital editions

    Hi.
    I hope that you can help me sort out the problems I’m having with Adobe digital editions. I installed it when I bought an e-book reader, and it worked just fine.
    I think the problems started after I downloaded some updates, and I can still download books from my public library onto my laptop, but can’t transfer them to my e-book reader.
    It says that my laptop is not authorised, and when I try to authorise it I get the following statement which is printed in red on my screen.
    Activation server error.
    Code:  e_auth_not_ready
    Digital edidtions encountered an error on the activation server
    I hope that the above will give you some insight into what my problem might be, and that you can suggest a fix for it.
    Thank you so much for any help you are able to give me.
    Regards, ron.
    ps I'm using ver 3 and can't find answers in the FAQ section.

  • Trouble Authorizing Computer with Adobe Digital Editions

    I'm unable to authorize my computer with Adobe Digital Editions. It just gets 'stuck' on the authorizing computer page, it tells me to wait whilst the green bar moves backwards and forwards for hours. I've tried reinstalling the software but it didn't help.
    I searched for help and there was mention of reducing my security settings, which would these be? I'm using Windows 7, I've tried switching off all firewalls and I'm using the administrator account.
    I'm not very tech savy so any advise in simple terms would be appreciated! Many thanks

  • Saving a DRM book to pendrive/external disk to later download and read it on personal notebook (with Adobe Digital Editions)

    Hello.
    I installed Adobe Digital Editions on my mother's personal computer and activated my Adobe ID in order to be able to purchase, download and read DRM books there.
    But is it possible to save the DRM books to a pendrive or external hard disk, so that I can "carry them" and later download and read them on my personal notebook (having previously installed Adobe Digital Editions and activated my Adobe ID in the notebook)?
    I don't know if DRM books can be saved to pendrives and external hard disks...

    Incidentally, you do know that you can buy kindle or Nook apps for your ipad? I was assuming you wanted a DE-specific app.
    EDIT Actually, those apps are free--you just pay for what you buy through them, if that helps you any.
    Incidentally, O'Reilly, my publisher, uses PDF for real galley purposes, although they do create epub editions of their books for distribution. You might want to ask the publishers you work with if there's another format available.
