Unable to open Digital Editions books on Kobo Touch.

I have just joined BigW E-Books, I have downloaded two books, they open in Digital Editions but when I try and send them to my Kobo E-reader. They do not transfer in an openable state, message says "Doc is protected and is not currently authorised for use with your Adobe ID." This happens even though I have an authorised ID, which of course is my email address. Anyone know how I can make this work?

It may be that you need a little more: not sure about the user name for Kobo is my email address, this is how I communicate with Kobo.
That might be a Kobo specific knowledge of your email, and not have got through to the Adobe DRM part of the Kobo necessary for reading DRM eBooks.
Also, the Help on the authorization may only be telling you about the Adobe authorization of ADE, and not of the device.
Lots of mays and mights above, but try ....
When the Kobo is plugged into to computer with ADE running, the Kobo should show in the left hand panel.
Then run 'menu/Help/Authorize Device' (menu/Library/Authorize Device on older v1.7.2) to make sure the Adobe registration has been passed to the Kobo.

  • Try to install a adobe digital edition for my kobo touch. i have no administrative password -using library computer. what can i do?

    from Marcia.
    I have a kobo touch ereader.  Try to install adobe digital editions.  i only access to a library computer window 7.  Try to download ADE 3. 0. Installater.exe.   No administrative password.
    Can you help me.  My kobo touch software is 1.9.17. (r37581 3/16/12)  model no. N905B27210158.

    Since the new library gives you the same message log into another user account on your Mac and see if you can run iPhoto without getting that message.  If you get that message there also a reinstall of iPhoto seems indicated. To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/  folder,
    Click to view full size
    Then install iPhoto from the disk it came on originally and apply all available updates to it.

  • I'm getting a copy error when moving books from Digital Editions to my kobo?  How do I fix this?

    I'm getting the following error message when trying to move books from Digital Editions to my Kobo.  I get the green + sign and when I release my mouse this is what I get:  can anyone help

    The response did not solve my problem whatsoever.  I can select an EPUB book from the library it goes into Digital Editions and every selection that I've make tells me it can't be copied.  There must be some setting that I'm missing but this has never happened before.  I had to reload Adobe since my laptop had issues.  I've been using Adobe and my Kobo for 3 years now without an issue.  I even tried downloading the free books that Adobe offers and got the same response.
    It would actually be nice to speak to someone over the phone instead of having to communicate via this forum.  It's very frustrating.  PLEASE HELP to resolve this issue.

    i have saved my project to my harddrive and then when I try to open it on another computer that uses final cut I am unable to open and edit the project

    Assuming this is an external HD, use finder to select the drive with your original computer, then press Cmd+i to show info. Go to the bottom of the info window and make sure 'Ignore ownership of this volume' is checked so that other computers can access it.

  • "Unable to find 'Digital Editions' Folder"

    Hi everybody,
    I tried several times to install, uninstall, reinstall, etc. Adobe Digital Editions 1.7.1.
    Unfortuately, the result is each time the same : I get a box telling (in French) "Unable to find 'Digital Edition' Folder".
    I created manually a "Digital Editions" and a "My Digital Editions" folders in the "My Documents" (or Documents?) folder in Vista (in fact, my D: HD).
    I did the same in the User\Me\Documents Folder, just in case.
    The software is still unable to locate the desired folder.
    I searched the program folder and did not find any config file such as an .ini file to give me any information.
    I searched the registry and did not find any entry to tell me where that folder could be.
    And, there is no preference menu in the software to manually choose a "Digital Edition Folder"
    So, does it mean that software will never work on my computer?
    Is there anything I can do to make it work?
    Thanks in advance
    Philippe

    Oops! I saw too late that there has been already a thread about that issue... for 2 years!!!
    And still no satisfying answer!
    Congratulations, Adobe, how efficient you are!

  • Can I read Adobe-Digital-Edition books on my Android device?

    Can I read Adobe-Digital-Edition books on my Android device?

    Yes, You need to install compatible app. 
    Look at Bluefire and Aldiko for general use (including library books) and Overdrive app for library books.
    There are also apps from some of the major booksellers.
    For DRM books you need to make sure you register with the same AdobeID you use on the PC.
    (For non DRM books, don't bother with ADE on any PC, use superior free Calibre instead, or download direct to device.)
    You will need to copy any books using a file manager, not from ADE.

  • When i upload a book from the library to the adobe digital editions for my kobo glo, it says "unable to download, unable to get license"

    how do i fix it?....i only have 5 more days until i loose the book

    I'm having the same issue with my kobo touch. I've been on the phone all day with kobo tech support and they told me to use ADE 3.0. So I uninstalled 4.0 and downloaded 3.0 and now I can't even get the books into ADE. I'm so frustrated. How do we fix this?!?!

  • Unable to open library books on Kobo Touch

    I am unable to open library books which are DRM protected on my Kobo Touch. This is a new problem in the last few months. The message on my Kobo is "This document is protected by Adobe Digital Rights Management and is not currently authorized for use with your Adobe ID. Please sign in with the authorized Adobe ID and try again." At Kobo's suggestion I have done a factory reset of the Kobo Touch. I have also deauthorized both the computer and Kobo, and authorized them again. Still no luck. Please help! I have wasted ALOT of time on this.

    There seem to be lots of people have Kobo problems at the moment.
    I haven't got one so I am not sure if this will help, but read around the post below and see it it matches.

    Also, try ADEv1.7.2.
    ~~~~~~~~~
    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.

    Hi Jeff and Gibert.. I had the same issue but knew that my system prefs were fine... I found the workaround... just below is a link that will take you to a page to do a manual download... both for Mac and Windows.  I did it last night and was able to open my files properly in Adobe Digital Edition.  Hope that helps!

  • Does anyone know how to move ePub ebooks from Adobe digital editions to a Kobo?

    Does anyone know how to move ePub ebooks that I've purchased onto my Kobo eReader?  I've tried everything...help from where I bought the books, surfing the net, etc. but even though the book is in the library of my Adobe Digital Editions I can't drag it onto the Kobo library.  The dragging stops at the border of the Adobe site.  I've spent hours and am SO frustrated - hope somebody can help.

    Have you tried contacting Adobe?

  • Unable to open newly purchased book

    Someone please help.  I just bought an e-book, downloaded ADE to my laptop (w/windows) and went to put the book in my ADE library, but I'm getting the following error message:
    "Connection Error Detected.  Digital Editions could not connect to the fulfillment server.  Please make sure you are connected to the internet."
    There is nothing wrong with my internet connection.
    How can I resolve this?

    OK. So I finally chatted with the help desk...
    They asked me to remove and re-install the software (that's a classic one).
    Then they asked me to download a couple of e-books from http://www.adobe.com/products/digital-editions/eBook.html and to open them.
    As both steps above worked, they told me I had a problem with the .acsm file so they could not help further...
    But re-downloading and opening it directly from the online shop where I bought the ebook worked... Finally...

  • Adobe Digital Editions not reading Kobo Vox

    I can't seem to get the Adobe Digital Editions to read the Kobo Vox.  I've done it before on another computer with a Kobo mini but for some reason it's not working.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    The Vox is a general table rather than a dedicated eReader, and needs the appropriate software installed.
    See thread http://forums.adobe.com/message/4775728 for more details.
    In summary, for library books, install the Overdrive app.  That avoids the need for ADE/PC at all if you so wish.
    For general ADE compatibility, install the Aldiko app.
