Trying to open and read an ebook for the first time

When I click on the ebook file, it says I need to open it using Digital Edition. So when I say OK to do that, it just goes to the Adobe Digital Edition home page. I have gone in and set up an ID in Adobe.

To answer your question on how I got the files on the IPod Shuffle, XP assumed it was some sort of flash drive or something and just allowed me to drag and drop them onto the device. But it was not in any sort of format I suppose where I could play it.
The good news is that I followed the advice here and I downloaded ITunes software and after playing with this software for a while I figured out how it was able to view the IPod Shuffle connected to my USB port. It was pretty cool. And, sure enough, it said that I needed to update some system software on the device. And I did. And -- long story short -- I am pleased to say that as I type this right now I am listening to songs on my IPod Shuffle !!
The only question I have now is this. When displaying for the IPod, ITunes had two tabs to display. One showed the contents and the other showed the settings. I figured out that the contents are loaded by a button from the Music contents and folder. But at the bottom of the settings window I noticed a diagram. It shows the audio files in blue, and free space in white. But the most is what is in orange. I have put nothing but audio files on the device. So I assume that the orange is an operating system of some kind. Or is there something else wrong?

  • IPhoto nightmare. Tried to import photos using Nikon software for the first time and all my photos disappeared from iPhoto 8.1.2 (and everything from itunes too). Newly reinstalled iPhoto crashes as soon as I import anything now.

    Macbook OSX 10.5.8, iPhoto 8.1.2. I just tried to import some photos using Nikon software (View NX2) for the first time. When I next looked into iPhoto it was empty (so was iTunes but that's another story). I had backed up photos fairly recently but don't use time machine. Searched in vain everywhere and must have done something wrong because iPhoto wouldn't then open at all, saying it was unreadable. After a lot more attempts to recover I uninstalled iPhoto and the receipts and reinstalled from my original disc. It seemed to be ok and imported some photos from my iphone but as soon as the import is complete iPhoto crashes and when opened again it is empty. Have tried this several times and have shut down and have tried rebuilding with the alt and cmd buttons but nothing seems to help. Any ideas?

    not a reply but not sure how to add something to my own thread! It seems that Desktop was damaged too as when I try to open it a screen says there is no application selected to open Desktop with. No idea what I should choose! Any help appreciated, have really made a mess of my MacBook this time.

  • How do I accept the Terms and Conditions when trying to set up an Apple ID for the first time ( using my iphone)?

    I am trying to create an Apple ID by using the Itunes icon on my iphone 5s for the first time. It opens up a screen with the 54 pages of Terms and Conditions and it does not allow me to even accept the Terms and Conditions... no Accept option or place to click!
    The only option is to Send the terms and conditions via email... which also does not work...it keeps asking me to "try again"... Has someone else had this problem?

  • What change to the firewall Java is trying to make when it is launched for the first time?

    We are upgrading our jpi from 7u60 to 7u67.  We are running EBS 12.1.  We are having issues trying to deploy this to the organization with zero prompts and messages.  We are getting a firewall prompt from the plugin the first time we launch EBS.  What change to the firewall is java trying to make when we launch the plugin from EBS the first time?  I have attached screen shots of the messages we are seeing.  The first screen shot is on Windows 7x86 and the second is on Windows 7x64.  The x86 is prompting for jp2launcher.exe
    while the x64 is prompting to allow java.exe.  This is the same software package for both instances and we are using the IE 32-bit browser.

    You haven't downgraded the iOS or lost any features, what you've done is restored your phone from an old iOS backup.

  • Trying to log into itunes  & app stores for the first time..

    When I type in my apple id and password, I receive the following message.....
    This apple id has not been used in the iTunes store. Tap review to sign in, then review your account information.
    When I try to verify my account information, card details and address for any future billing, I am told my card has been declined?
    I have tried a different card and receive the same message. I am not buying anything, just verifying my account.
    What should I do?

    Unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    then card details will need to be entered before the account can be used with the iTunes store.
    What sort of card are you trying to use as your payment method, credit or debit ? Debit cards don't seem to still be accepted in all countries, and even where they are is appears (based on some posts on here) that not all work.
    For a card to have a chance of being accepted it needs to be registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and have been issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are. If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) and see if they know why it's being declined (but you might not be able to use a debit card) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management
    Or you could see if the steps on this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you review your account without needing to enter credit card details (which will allow you to download free items) : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054#24303054
    If none of your cards are accepted and the post by mountaingoatgirl doesn't work then you will need to create a new account, and use the instructions on the above HT2534 page when creating it.

    Hi Mark,
    Yes, I did visit you guys in Israel a couple of months ago. I hope all of you are doing well.
    Is there another computer on your network that has more or less the same configuration as yours? Same databases, etc. Does your computer have the same network settings as the others where it is working?

    I’ve tried to update my i-Tunes version after the site suggested I should following my i-Pad Air being plugged into it for the first time. The update seemed successful but the program would not open at all despite switching off the PC and re-starting several times. I then tried wiping the original software from the computer and re-downloading from scratch. Each time I tried the download failed with a message saying “Service “Apple Mobile Device” failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services” At this stage, the only way forward was to “abort” the download. This I have done now four times and the same thing happens. When I did finally manage to get an i-Tunes shortcut on my desktop, the program wouldn’t open saying: “i-Tunes was not installed correctly. Please re-install i-Tunes. Error 7 (Windows error 193)” Any ideas to resolve this?

  • I am trying to launch Aperture for the first time and it won't open.  Any tips?

    I am trying to launch Aperture on a MacBook Pro for the first time.  It displays "Opening Aperture Library" with a moving wheel... but nothing happens.  Any thoughts on how to trouble shoot?
    Thanks.

    on a MacBook Pro for the first time.
    What do you mean? Have transferred your Aperture Library from a different machine to a MacBook Pro, or did you just upgrade from a previous version of Aperture?
    If it is hanging on opening your Aperture library, your Aperture library may need repairing.
    Make a backup of your Aperture library.
    Double click the Aperture Library while holding down the option-command key combination ⌥⌘.
    From the First Aid panel that appears, select "Rebuild database" (if you upgraded Aperture), else start with "Repair Permissions" and "Repair Database". See this section in the Aperture manual for how to run the First Aid Tools:
    Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library
    If none of this helps, post back please and tell us more about your Aperture library, where it is located, the type of images: raw or jpeg, if it referenced, the exact version of Aperture 3 you have.
    Regards

  • I downloded iphoto 11 9.2 and when opened it for the first time and the program started to update my iPhoto library the file got corrupted. That has happened in the two macs I have (both of them rather new and updated to last Lion version 10.7.2).

    I downloaded Iphoto 11 9.2 from the apps store (was on iphoto '09 before version 8.x) and when opened it for the first time it tried to update my photo librery and ended up corupting it to the extreme that I had to get a backup from time capsule and downgrade my iphoto version. I spent yesterday 6 hours at the genius bar in an apple store and they were not able to provide me with any other solution. In the emantime, I have to forget about about photo streaming... Any idea, is this a bug that somebody knows how tp fix?

    In fairness, this isn't an issue in iPhoto 11 but one in your Library. Some file or other in there is damaged and that's what causes the crash during the upgrade.
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

    I clicked on iMessage on my Macbook Pro today for the first time, and now NOTES keeps opening up every 5 seconds, with a new note.  I cannot stop it from opening. If I close it or force close, it opens again in 5 seconds.  I can't get rid of it.  I have tried to clear out the iMessage settings I had put in, and I've tried to adjust the Accounts to not include notes to synch.  But, Notes will not stop.  It opens a new note, and even if you ignore it, it assumes preference every 5 seconds, and the Mac is impossible to use.

    Do you have any Boot Camp or other secondary partitions set up on your system? If so then try running a disk verification routine (chkdsk, etc.) in Windows to repair the disk. While I've not heard of it happening recently, in the past errors in these partitions have resulted in stubborn ghost files appearing in OS X.
