We are trying to install Adobe Digital Editions 4.O. it errors each time.

The application will not install.
We are using Microsoft Windows XP Professional
The message that comes up is Adobe Digital Editions 4.0 has encountered a problem and needs to close.
We did this. We then rebooted the computer and tried to install again.
The same error occurs.
How do you install this on Widows XP?

Please try the new release of ADE (link: http://www.adobe.com/solutions/ebook/digital-editions/download.html)
Some important kobo related bugs/crashes are fixed in this release.
I hope it fixes your crash issue as well.
Let me know if it works for you.

  • I am trying to install Adobe Digital Editions

    I've been trying unsuccessfully to install Digital  Editions for 3 days and ended up with Creative Cloud, which I do not want.  Please help. [private info removed]  Thank you.

    What kind of problems have you been getting that stopped the install working?
    What operating system?
    One thing that might be worth trying is to install the older version.
    That often helps with Digital Editions problems, but without more information impossible to know if it will help for you.

    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.

    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.

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 requires NET 3.5 on Windows 7 (and this is old/outdated today).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

  • 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,

  • 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 an android tablet

    How do you install adobe digital editions on an android tablet, I understand you cannot is this true??????????

    ADE does not run on Android tablets.
    You need to install an app that supports Adobe DRM, Bluefire and Aldiko are the commonest.
    There is also an Overdrive app if you just want to borrow/download and read DRM library books.
