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 requires NET 3.5 on Windows 7 (and this is old/outdated today).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.

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.

  • How do I install Adobe digital editions on my iPad?

    How do I install Adobe digital editions on my iPad?
    I have an IPad Air 2, iOS 8.1.2. I ordered some ebooks that required the download of Adobe Digital Editions. I select the supplied link to the Adobe site, select download, and I am given the option of windows or Mac OS. I wandered through the site and even googled an iOS version with no luck. I thought maybe the Mac OS version might be universal to apple products so I downloaded it and tried to open it in One Note, One Drive, and Google My Drive with no luck. The .dmg file is not recognized. So, I'm back to looking for an iOS version. Is there one?

    You can find an iPad version of Adobe Digital Editions in the app store on the iPad. I was able to download it and install it tonight. I followed the instructions in the included User's Guide to copy a book that I had first downloaded to my Mac over to DropBox.  From the DropBox app on the iPad, I opened the book with ADE successfully.  You might also look at the BlueFire reader; I've seen that recommended a number of places. I was just able to open the same book from DropBox in BlueFire.  For both ADE and BlueFire, you will have to authorize your iPad to Adobe with an Adobe ID and pw.  Good luck.

    how to install adobe digital editions on android device (zt pad)

    I don't think ADE will itself run on Android.
    You need to install an app such as Bluefire (free) which supports DRM epub books.
    Make sure you authorise it with the same AdobeID you use on the PC or to buy books.
    You can get books on the PC with ADE, download them, 'sideload' the .epub files to the tablet using a file manager such as Windows Explorer, and read them on Bluefire.
    For library books, the Overdrive app (free) should allow you to borrow, doanload and read books with no need for a PC or ADE.

  • 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,

  • Where can I find a link to download and install ADobe Digital edition on my iPad Air ?

    I Just bought a book in PDFs format with my iPad. The vendor site says I need to install Adobe digital edition, but I can't find a link to install adobe digital edition on an iPad air. Can anybody help ?
    THx all!

    Hey edsonascimento,
    You might need to first deactivate Acrobat from the Help menu on your old machine.
    Then, you can download Acrobat X Pro from the below mentioned link and activate the software (from Help menu) with the same serial key:
    Download Acrobat products | Standard, Pro | DC, XI, X
    Please note that you can activate and run Acrobat software on maximum two machines (say your desktop at work and laptop at home)
    In order to use it on third machine, you need to first deactivate it from any of the old computers.
    Hope this helps.
    regards,
    Anubha

  • Unable to access Adobe Digital Editions from my tablet

    I recently installed Adobe Digital Editions on my pc to enable me to downloan an eBook from a publisher. I now wish to download the same eBook onto my Samsung tablet, but do not know how to install the Adobe ID onto that tablet. Any advice?    Stuart208

    You need to install a compatible third party app that can read Adobe drm books.
    Try Bluefire or Aldiko.  http://www.bluefirereader.com/  http://www.aldiko.com/
    You then transfer the book by copying using a file manager (eg Windows Explorer, Mac Finder) to the mounted drive.
    (With dedicated eReader devices you can usually transfer from ADE, but not with tablet devices with eReader app)
