Using Adobe Digital Editions and Adobe Content Viewer on Blackberry Playbook

Hello, we have a Kobo eReader and a Blackberry Playbook.  We would like to sign out eBooks from our library but are having challenges.  We seem to be able to download the eBooks to the Kobo eReader, but can't seem to get the same connectivity with the Playbook.  The ADE will not recognize the Playbook as a separate computer so I can't authorize that device.  I found Adobe Content Viewer on Blackberry World and it is supposed to interact with digital documents.  I have tried to sign in with my Adobe ID on it and it will not recognize ID/Password although I can log in here just fine.  Some help here would be appreciated.

Try Overdrive app http://apps.goodereader.com/playbook/blackberry-playbook-reading-and-news-apps/?did=180
You should be able to  borrow, download and read library books on the Blackberry without using ADE at all.
I haven't tried it, but look into the Aldiko app http://apps.goodereader.com/playbook/blackberry-playbook-reading-and-news-apps/?did=181
That page also mentioned Moon+ http://apps.goodereader.com/playbook/blackberry-playbook-reading-and-news-apps/?did=182
I use Bluefire, but not sure if it is available on Blackberry.

  • I am getting an error message "Adobe_unable to download, license server communications problem, e_act_not_ready".  I have downloaded Adobe Digital Editions and have authenticated the computer, but cannot download a book from the library.  What should I do

    I am getting an error message "Adobe_unable to download, license server communications problem, e_act_not_ready".  I have downloaded Adobe Digital Editions and have authenticated the computer, but cannot download a book from the library.  What should I do?

    Having exact same problem, only it's with a book I've paid for, so it hurts more . Any ideas?

  • How can I migrate Adobe digital edition and its library from an old computer to a new one?

    How can I migrate Adobe digital edition and its library from an old computer to a new one?

    Pertains to a Windows machine..
    Definitely get other opinions on this. I last did this myself in 2010.
    The most important thing, is to make sure you have an account (which I think you must have, or you probably couldn't have posted here).
    As I recall, I downloaded ADE to my new computer, launched the software, authorized the new computer by supplying my login, and then just moved the 'My Digital Editions' folder to the new machine.
    Be sure to de-authorize your old machine after you have done all of this, or over time you could end up exceeding your 'simultaneous devices'-limit for accessing your materials. I suspect that *from within the app itself, while it is still installed on your old machine* may be your only opportunity to do this. It is certainly the best/easiest.
    Hey Internet! Have you done this more recently than I? If so, please chime in to make corrections or add detail.

  • Please how can I print out my book from the laptop I have adobe digital edition and the print is faded

    Sorry but I can not print from Adobe Digital edition. I bought and down loaded a book and now can not seem to print as the print request is faded out. Can someone help me thanks

    Hi Cherin,
    Printing a phone book (or an 'Address Book" as ontacts Help refers to it) is done directly from Contacts, and does not involve Pages. Details are available in Contacts' Help files. Try searching 'print phone book' (without the quotes).
    Your question will be better served in the Mail & Contactssection of the Mac OS & System Software community.When reposting there, be sure to describe the snags you've run into so that people responding can oncentrate on those without having to repeat what you already know.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • I am not able to download the free Adobe Digital Editions in order to view the 2012 Master Tax Guide

    Once I tried and got done on the status bar but it was not downloaded. The next time the status bar had error on page. Please advise.

    Diana, there's a process to follow here, and there can be some technical
    issues as well.
    First the technical issues.  If you have a Windows PC with Windows 7, you
    may need to adjust its security settings to allow the download and also the
    interface to the tax guide.
    Next, while Digital Editions is free, you need to register with Adobe and
    obtain an Adobe ID in order to use it properly with most sites.  I'd start
    there if you have not done so already.
    After you've registered, obtained an Adobe ID and downloaded/installed
    Digital Editions, go to the site where the tax guide is to be downloaded
    from and try to do that.  If you get 'strange' messages, Digital Editions
    may be telling you that your security settings need adjustment to allow
    downloads from this site.
    Hope this helps!

  • How do I open a library book on a recently acquired Samsung Nook?  I get "too many activations" error. I have an active adobe digital editions and my other devices work fine.  Custumer Support was unable to get the new device activated.

    I have a library book on the bookshelf of a newly acquired Samsung Nook but I cannot open it.  My other devices work fine but I cannot activate the new unit.  I get a "too many activations" error message.  Customer Services say I have a valid license but they deemed my problem to be a technical issue and referred me to the forum.  Thanks

    Step 1 - by trial and error...
    So far, I have been able to create physical files containing MP3 and JPG on the NAS using the Windows XP systems to copy from shared locations on the Vista and Win7 boxes.  This process has been aided by the use of a 600 GB SATA 2 capable hard drive enclosure.  I first attach to Win 7 or Win Vista and reboot to see the local drive spaces formatted on the portable device.  Then I copy files from the user's private directories to the public drive space.  When the portable drive is wired to an XP box, I can use Windows to move the files from the portable device to the NAS without any of the more advanced file attributes being copied to the NAS.  Once the files are on the NAS, I can add the new folder(s) to iTunes on any of the computers and voila, the data becomes sharable via iTunes.  So far, this works for anything that I have completely purchased, or for MP3's I made from the AIC files created when I purchased alblums via iTunes. 
    I have three huge boxes full of vynl records I've accumulated.  The ones that I've successfully digitized via a turntable attached to the sound card on one of my computers and third party software, have found their way to the NAS after being imported into iTunes and using it to bring down available album art work.  In general I've been reasonably well pleased with the sound quality of digital MP3 files created this way, but the software I've been using sometimes has serious problems automatically separating individual songs from the album tracks and re-converting "one at a time" isn't very efficient.

  • I am trying to download a ebook into my adobe digital editions and I keep getting a error message saying that connection error?

    I recently purchased an ebook, downloaded all the correct software and when I go to put it into my library i get an error saying "connection error" cannot connect to activation server. HELP!

    I have this same problem in October of 2013. I am unable to import .ics files into Lion that I exported from my Snow Leopard MacBookPro without losing all of my future events (which all have alerts attached). All of the events from BEFORE today's date are successfully importing, presumably because they are no longer expected to trigger alerts via Apple Mail. After my first unsuccessful attempt, I learned that iCal was communicating with iCloud by default. I have since turned off iCloud, but I have not found a solution to the problem. Harvey

  • I am trying to download a book from Books a Million via Adobe Digital Editions and get this error:  Error getting License. License Server Communication Problem: E_ADEPT_NO_TOKEN   So frustrated right now.

  • Adobe Digital Edition 4.0 doesn't run and a message appears

    Hello, ADE doesn't open and this message appears. What is the solution or which other software can I use? Thank you.

    note to moderator -   this is MY response to MY own posting.  How can this be a duplicate.
    success.  ADE 4.0 is to be avoided. It crashed after my solution.
    The solution is trash the activation.dat preference file.
    Navigate to /Users//Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions and drag the activation.dat file to the trash.
    If you are using 10.7, see Access hidden library files | Mac OS 10.7 and later.
    I reinstalled ADE 3.0 and life is good.

  • How do I change authorization in adobe digital editions using windows vista

    How do I change authorization in adobe digital editions using windows vista?
    When I try ctrl alt delete, I get the blue windows log in sceen.  How do I get past the log in screen to use the ctrl alt delete to change authorization for the adobe digital editions screen.

    Adobe apps can be reset to their factory defaults by using Ctrl+Alt+Shift, not Del. The rest doesn't really make any sense since you did not provide any details and authorizations can't be changed that way, anyway. If you want to transfer books to other devices you need to contact the vendors to release the DRM/ provide a new download and if you want to change the registered ID, you need to contact support or create a completely new account, which in turn will require you to buy your DRM managed books again/ get a new download as well.

  • Saving a DRM book to pendrive/external disk to later download and read it on personal notebook (with Adobe Digital Editions)

    Hello.
    I installed Adobe Digital Editions on my mother's personal computer and activated my Adobe ID in order to be able to purchase, download and read DRM books there.
    But is it possible to save the DRM books to a pendrive or external hard disk, so that I can "carry them" and later download and read them on my personal notebook (having previously installed Adobe Digital Editions and activated my Adobe ID in the notebook)?
    I don't know if DRM books can be saved to pendrives and external hard disks...

    Incidentally, you do know that you can buy kindle or Nook apps for your ipad? I was assuming you wanted a DE-specific app.
    EDIT Actually, those apps are free--you just pay for what you buy through them, if that helps you any.
    Incidentally, O'Reilly, my publisher, uses PDF for real galley purposes, although they do create epub editions of their books for distribution. You might want to ask the publishers you work with if there's another format available.
