Hi,
to solve this problem is something to do:
- delete all files of this eBook in "my digital editions" folder
- delete folder "restore" in my digital editions
- delete temporary internetfiles from INTERNET EXPLORE, it is not nessesary which browser you use. Adobe uses IE in the background.
- start another download at your ebookshop

  • Sorry, the file you are attempting to open cannot

    Hello,
    I am a student at the University of South Florida. I have purchased an ebook through McGraw Hill ebookstore for an online class I am taking. After purchase, I was given the option to download and view a sample book (just 1 chapter from the text) and view the entire book. I was able to successfully view the sample book, but when I view the main book, I receive a message "Sorry, the file you are attempting to open cannot
    be opened by Digital Editions." Both files are an EBX Transfer Data File (7.0) format. However, only the sample book works.
    Any assistance is needed and welcomed.
    Thank you

    Is there an answer on what to do about this? I am having the same problem I have XP2 and the first book downloaded fine. But cannot download samples here or books from ebooks.com I get the message Sorry, the file you are attempting to open cannot be opened by digital editions

  • Sorry, the file you are attempting to open cannot be opened by Digital Editions.

    I PURCHASED SEVERAL BOOKS FROM GOOGLE PLAY STORE AND FOLLOWED THE
    INSTRUCTIONS TO DOWNLOAD THEM SO I COULD READ THEM ON MY NOOK COLOR BUT THE
    RESULTING FILES SEEM NOT TO BE RECOGNIZED BY ADOBE DIGITAL EDITIONS VER.
    1.7.2 AND EACH ATTEMPT RESULTS IN THE MESSAGE: Sorry, the file you are
    attempting to open cannot be opened by Digital Editions.
    THE FILE NAMES FOR THE BOOKS ARE ATTACHED. I FOUND IT STRANGE THAT ALTHOUGH
    "private 1 suspect-epub.acsm"  does not cause this error but the others do.
    I purchased "private 1 suspect-epub.acsm" from Google Market (now PLAYSTORE)
    a few weeks earlier. What could be the cause of the problem?
    Any suggestions?

    Ben, I'm not sure what is going on here.  So let me write something about
    the process generally, and maybe it will help you to determine why this is
    happening.
    Generically: the download process usually begins with the source.  That
    source would interact with you and then provide an .ascm pointer
    file.  After the pointer file is generated, the source should start Digital
    Editions on your computer, and Digital Editions will read the pointer file,
    find the ebook and download it - all automagically.
    Part of the download process can include choosing the format for the
    ebook.  Digital Editions is limited to certain formats.  They include
    .epub, .txt and .pdf file types. The most common format is .epub.  So, when
    you interacted with Google books, you probably got the chance to choose the
    type of file you wanted.  If you chose a format OTHER than .epub, .txt or
    .pdf, Digital Editions can't do anything with it, and thus the message.

  • Error while creating sites on entire site collection - the file you are attempting to save or retrieved has been blocked from this web site by server administrator

    Hi,
    I am trying to create a new sub site. Everytime I try to create the site I get this error:
    the file you are attempting to save or retrieved has been blocked from this web site by server administrator
    This applies to almost all site templates except the "blank site" template. I am logged in as System Administrator.

    Issue resolved!
    Don't know how but somehow, xml was added to the Blocked file types. Removing the entry did the trick.

  • How do I stop message (The file you are attempting to play has an extension that does not match the file format... result in unexpected behavior..)

    The usual cause of that type of error is incorrect programming of the web server. The file is being sent with the wrong content-type, and since the browser uses that to determine how to handle the file, it does not treat it correctly. You could try the extension Force Content-Type to correct the content-type of that file.

  • The vendor account is not associated with the file you are trying to open.Please try again.

    Please help me to understand what is the problem with the set up of the program. I bought an ebook from an internet site to which my IP address was blocked (in country 1). My brother bought it on a computer in country 2  and wanted to download and send me the file so I can open it on my computer. He set up initial download without Adobe ID. Afterwards he downloaded the pdf and send it to me. I tried to upload it  with my ADE reader but it didn't work without ID. My brother then deleted afterwards his ADE and installed it again, downloaded the ebook again but this time setting up an ID. He transferred me the file ,I used the same ID  but then the following message appeared "The vendor account is not associated with the file you are trying to open. Please try again." . Can this be fixed somehow? I cannot open the URLLinks even as there is no connection from my IP , but I have the pdf file ( ebook) but I don't know how to set up the program.

    Sorry Everyone this error message appeared in Digital Editions 4 used on a windows 8 laptop.  Thanks Chris

  • Trying to back up iPad to external hard drive, "iTunes library file cannot be saved. The disk you are attempting to use is full."

    This issue is somewhat complex so I will try to explain it as clearly as I can. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    It all began when I kept getting popups from my iPad saying that I had not backed up since May. I realized that was pretty dangerous so I decided to finally try syncing it to iTunes, though I had avoided doing so for so long because I knew that when I tried there was no room on the computer. I then remembered that I have an external hard drive with plenty of storage space, so I got that out and set it up with a folder to move iTunes and the backup into.
    On iTunes I went to the Advanced Preferences and changed iTunes Media Folder Location to the G: folder, with the keep organized box checked. I also copied the previous backups from the original C: drive to G: so that I could delete the ones on C:.
    I used Junction Link Magic to link my now empty MobileSync backup on C: to a new (JLM would not work unless it was empty) backup folder on external hard drive G:.
    I plugged in my iPad to iTunes to sync it, and while it was backing up I checked the new folder on G: to make sure that the backup was being put there. It was.
    However, about halfway through I got the message "iTunes library file cannot be saved. The disk you are attempting to use is full."
    My question is Why? If it is being made in a 1.5 terabyte hard drive now, and not the computer, why is there no disk space? My guess is that it must still somehow be saving to the computer. But how? And how can I get it to save solely on the G: drive where there is enough room?
    I am running Windows XP and the latest version of iTunes.
    An additional but not as crucial issue:
    Much of my music has been lost, with the being displayed next to the songs in the iTunes library, and only 50 (purchased) songs remain on my iPad. This was because those missing songs were stored on a different external hard drive ( I:). However, I copied many of the music folders on I: over to G: so that everything could be together. I am wondering if it is possible for me to get these songs back onto my iPad. But this is not my most important issue right now, because I believe that once I get the first issue solved I can simply plug in I: and G: at the same time while syncing the iPad, and get the songs back.
    Note: I have come to realize the iTunes program itself is still under Program Files in the C: drive. Does this have to do with anything?

    Short term, free up some disk space. Long term, move the library to a bigger drive.

    I have recently started downloading video files. I
    have downloaded a season of a tv show. The season had
    9 episodes. Three downloaded fine and the other 6
    will not. When i try to download them i get a message
    saying error

    dont understand why it keeps doing this. I have lots
    of space on itunes and my computer is not full
    either.What can i do? How can i prevent this? Is
    there a problem with my computer?  Thank you!

    have a look at this support article.

    Hi
    I followed this guy's instructions and it worked:
    http://evsiphone.blogspot.com/2009/05/iphone-iphone-could-not-be-restored.html
    I did disable the security (AVG and Zone Alarm) when I tried on my own PC. My wife's laptop which eventually got it working also uses AVG and Zone Alarm but on an XP O/S whereas my PC is Vista - maybe this is why.
    Cheers for you help.

  • I keep getting an error code while trying to import a cd to my itunes: Error occurred while converting the file. The disc you are attempting to use is full. removing files and emptying the recycle bin will free up additional space.  What does this mean?

    I keep getting this error code while trying to import a cd to my itunes: "Error occurred while converting the file. The disc you are attempting to use is full. removing files and emptying the recycle bin will free up additional space."  What does this mean?

    Well it probably means exactly what it says... How much free space is there on your hard drive where the iTunes Media folder resides? I believe there is also an obscure bug that can occur when software doesn't read the true value of the free space properly, and the workaround is, perversely, to duplicate some content so that with less actual free space the software in question perceives it as more. I've no idea if iTunes is affected by such a bug.

  • HT2729 all download and file copies have been paused. the disk you are attempting to use is full

    this is the message im having trouble with.
    all download and file copies have been paused. the disk you are attempting to use is full
    what do i do now?
    thanks

    Perhaps the destination you are trying to download to is full; that's what the message says, after all.
    If you're trying to download directly to an iPod touch, then perhaps it is full up.
    If you're trying to download to your computer, is there space on your hard drive? Alternatively, is the hard drive set to "read only" or are your account permissions set to deny you the option to save files?

  • ITunes error message: "The iTunes library file cannot be saved. You have exceeded your storage quota on the disk you are attempting to use." What do I do?

    I recently started receiving the following iTunes error message when I attempt to update the software on my iPad or iPhone: "The iTunes library file cannot be saved. You have exceeded your storage quota on the disk you are attempting to use."
    Any ideas what I need to do? The software won't update on my iPad, and I need to update through iTunes, as my iPad does not have enough free space to use the OTA service.

    You need to free up space on your boot drive.
    (I am going to ask the mods move this to the MacBook Pro forum.)

    Unable to proceed with update is this causing the issue with transferring the playlist?

    You need to delete some files from your computer's c drive. Do not forget to empty the recycle bin.
    It sounds like you clicked on update.

  • "iTunes library file cannot be saved. The disk you are attempting to use is full."

    Trying to back up iPad to NAS, "iTunes library file cannot be saved. The disk you are attempting to use is full." I already changed my iTunes settings which now points to my NAS. In ~/Library/Application Solution/MobileSync/Backup I created an Alias which points to the NAS. What else can I do to backup my iPad to my computer? I'm a newbie on OSX but have lots of experience on Windows systems. I always believed Apple OSX is easy to handle but iTunes seems to has it's own "will".

    No suggestions? I'm wondering and a bit disappointed that no one has comments to this. Is it so difficult with OSX? Comments appreciated.
