Unable tu install and use Adobe Digital Editions

Hi, I tried to install Adobe Digital Editions 4.0 on my Windows 7 pc but it doesn't run... I tried to install the previous version 3.0 but the result is the same... Is possible to install the version 2.0 and where can I find it? Thank for your interest

I don't think there is a way out.
You could use it for non-DRM books without authorizing, but there are much better options (such as the free Calibre) for that anyway. http://calibre-ebook.com/
If you make a temporary internet connection, then once authorized, you should not need internet access to read books you have got elsewhere and copied to it.

  • Install and use Adobe Digital Editions on a computer without internet access ?

    Hello,
    I have a pair of PCs, one of them, with Windows Vista, has never been connected to the internet since many years. It is used for word processing mostly. I didn't even bother to plug an ethernet cable inside or think about a Wifi USB key, in a way it's better that way, no useless distractions and no security threats.
    I want to use that offline PC for work, and it would require to use Adobe Digital Editions on that machine. I downloaded the offline standalone installer from adobe.com without problems, however, apparently, Adobe only accepts us to use the program after we have activated it through internet access.
    Does that mean there is simply no way out, and I can't use Digital Editions on my offline computer ?
    Would you perhaps know a solution to this issue ?
    Thank you VERY MUCH if you can help !
    Kind regards

  • I have a Kobo N416  E-Reader. It is no longer supported by Kobo and is outdated. I was told that I can use Adobe Digital Editions Desktop App to download book to this Kobo N416 E-Reader . How do I do this ? Thanks

    Question;  How do I download Ebooks to my Kobo N416 e-reader using Adobe Digital Editions App ? I have already tried to get help from Kobo Techs but they say the Kobo N416 E-Reader is no longer supported by Kobo and is outdated. Kobo told me to use Adobe Digital Editions to download the books I bought on Kobo to my Kobo N416 E-Reader. I have already contacted Adobe Digital Editions for help but they could not help me and told me to go to Adobe Forums.

    I didnt't say that our business is using Linux Desktops. I wrote, our main clientele is. And what our customers do like to use is something we cannot control...
    >What difference does it make to you if Adobe releases a new version of Reader that is not supported on Linux?
    a new Adobe Reader version that's supported on Linux would be nice. a dialogue between Adobe and Linux developers would be nice...
    >As long as the old versions can open the files correctly, that's all that matters, no?
    No, not if our staff is trained to use the newest Adobe Acrobat (trainings are usually for the newest versions) and uses that to produce forms. Now the files open correctly. But what will be in some months or years? Do people working on Linux do have to print the forms then again to fill in?
    So do you recommend that we stop the process of producing electronic forms and stay with paper-fill-in forms? Is that the goal of Adobe? (maybe not so clever for your "financial viability"?!?!? ... ein schuss ins eigene bein?!?!)
    >Adobe is a public company and therefore it's not going to maintain a version of its software at great cost if it's not financially viable. It's as simple as that...
    So it is to be interpreted that Adobe is interested in killing Linux cause if users cannot work with let's say forms, they will have to switch to something that can do that for them...
    We definitely don't want to force Windows or Mac on our clientele. So as far as I get it, we will go back to paper forms and terminate our licence agreements with Adobe and deinstall it...

    I am trying to get authorisation to use Adobe digital edition, but my book's vendor is not on the list, and hence the password not accepted.

    Numbers documents from iOS need Numbers 3.2 on a Mac to open. And Numbers 3.2 requires Mavericks. If you are using Mavericks you can get Numbers 3.2 from the Mac App Store. It will be free IF you have Numbers 2 (iWork '09) installed. Otherwise you must buy it.
    Your other option is to send the Numbers file as an Excel file via e-mail to yourself to open with an earlier version of Numbers.

  • Problem copying Epub files to Sony 505 for library ebooks using Adobe Digital Editions.

    I am using Adobe Digital Editions to copy library ebooks to my Sony 505 using a Vista Home Premium 64 bit machine.
    Adobe PDF files successfully copy and are readable.
    However, when a subsequent copy is done for any Epub book from the library the previously copied PDF files change
    to proprietary on the 505. They are unreadable and show as one page long.  The Epub book is the only library book that is
    now readable.
    I have all of the latest software on the PC (it is only one month old) and the latest firmware on the Sony 505.
    I have also reformatted my internal memory on the Sony 505, but this did not have any affect.
    Any suggestions?

    You could have the issue whereby .acsm files do not get properly registered.

    One solution to may issues with ADE2.0 is to use the more reliable v1.7.2,
    Try that and see if it helps.
    Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.

    If you are printing to physical printer from Safari : Use Reader print button from Reader toolbar

    Hello guys..does anybody know how to install and use adobe master collection with the new lion?
    I need to use Flash and illustratore, but apparently those programmes are incompatible with the new operative sistem...
    I am a new mac users and I'd like to know if there are other similar programmes I can use with lion!

    well dude I can only let you know that as I work with those programme I don't have to pay for it is my company that pays the programme I whant to use( that's why I was asking if there where other programmes ..that I could use with lion insted that Illustrator and Flash!)..I know Adobe since 2005 and I can say that Adobs products are very good...I think that if it's an Adobe probleme or fault ..they will solve it very soon...but unfortunally I have the impression that after Jobs passed away Appel decided to change politics..and everything started to go very bad! (see FCP X)..
    good luck with apple dude..
    Where is the Apple problem? I have CS4 and CS5 running perfectly fine on my Macbook Pro. Installed 5 after Lion upgrade. Worth every cent. Adobe did have some catching up to do with Lion but with the CS5.5 update all runs fine. But not yours. So it is a problem with the Lion OS? You say you have been with Adobe since 2005. So you would be aware of all the other issues that Adobe had catching up with past Oss in Mac and Windows then. They get it right, but it is up to them. It is not up to Apple, nor Microsoft for that matter, to run around and check that every software developer in the world is running their business properly.
    And what has politics got to do with anything. Some people just have to blame Software for their poor Hardware maintainence of failure of the same.
    <The only think I can really do is to go back on my old windows...give back this orrible lap top and ask for my money back!>
    Great suggestion. You should go with that one, but good luck getting a refund.

  • I can't use Adobe Digital Edition on desktop 2 or 3 (not active)... it haunts me!

    After installing the improved security available for today (HT5281and HT5282), Adobe Digital Edition is not kept in the desktop where I move to use, always returns to the main desktop (Number 1) or go by it self to the active desktop, is a persecution!
    I use version 1.7.2 on Mac OSX 10.7.4
    Anyone know how to maintain it in the desired desktop?.
    Thanks in advance!

    Your %APPDATA% environment variable is obviously corrupt; see this article on how to fix it:

    N.B. do not attempt to modify the registry without backing it up first; ERUNT is a good registry backup tool.  You can also create a System Restore Point, which will contain a registry backup.

    When I try to down load book from e library and we go to Adobe Digital Edition 4.0, , instead of downloading the book, I get the error (error check activation).  Both the computer and the KOBO have be authorized to account ([email protected])

    If due to some reason, you are unable to deauthorize ADE, follow the below steps:
    Mac: Navigate to /Users//Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions and drag the activation.dat file to the trash.
    ADE will be deauthorized now.
    Now Authorize ADE again.
    Windows:
    Choose Start > Run.
    In the Open text box, type regedit and then press Enter. The Registry Editor opens.
    In the left pane of the Registry Editor, locate the following registry key:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Adept
    Right-click the Adept key and choose Delete.
    In the Confirm Key Delete dialog, click OK.
    Your authorization will be deleted.
    ADE will be deauthorized now.
    Now Authorize ADE again.

  • Our public library uses Adobe Digital Editions but I cannot find out how to get books from ADE onto iTunes.

    Does anyone know how to set up Adobe Digital Editions, or iTunes, to transfer books from ADE to iTunes for ultimate use on my iPad 2?

    Try Overdrive - it allows for reading of digital books that many libraries use, and I believe will work with ADE.

  • Kobo APP download Docs, PDF's Kobo said to convert the PDF using Adobe Digital Editions, then I'd be able to upload to the Kobe APP via iTunes. Where is File Sharing under the Apps tab located?

    I've uploaded my PDF to Adobe Digital Editions, but can't find where on iTunes to select file sharing under the Apps Tab... as specified in the instructions in the Kobo APP for the iPhone... and a rep from Kobo told me it was possible.

    For future questions, this forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with an issue if you ask in the general iTunes forums.
