Why won't my digital editions open or update automatically?

I can't access any of my books on digital editions because when the program opens I get an error message saying I must download the newest update. When I click on this message to update it just shuts down Editions and doesn't take me to an update webpage. Also, when I click to update later, it shuts down Editions as well. I tried downloading the newest version on the adobe website, but this just opens my current program with the same error message. Help! This is so frustrating. I paid for my e-books and I want to be able to read them!

You can download the latest version of Digital Editions by going to http://www.adobe.com/products/digitaleditions , however since that doesn't seem to be working for you will want to use the stand alone installer which you can get at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/digitalpublishing/ (click on "Digital Editions Stand Alone Installer" link)

  • Why won't Adobe Digital Editions recognise my ereader?

    I am trying to transfer an ebook to my Sony PRS-T2N reader using Adobe Digital Editions. However, the program does not seem to be recognising my ereader. Since it supports pretty much all the Sony readers, I assume it should be able to recognise mine too. Any ideas on how I can get it to recognise my e-reader?
    Thanks!

  • Why won't LP digital booklets open?

    hello,
    i can't seem to be able to open digital booklets when downloaded with the album.
    I've installed Adobe reader and Ibooks, tried to open the file from folder location, and even deleted the booklet and redownloaded.
    any advice please?
    cheers

    Are you getting a corrupted file message, and how are you downloading them ? With the U2 booklet I could only open it when I downloaded it from Purchased, not via the cloud icon in the Music part of my iTunes library (i.e. if you have 'show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases' ticked on the Store tab in iTunes > Preferences).
    Try deleting the booklets from the Music part of your library. Then go into the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage and try redownloading them from there and see if you can then open them.

  • Why won't my Mail app. open after updating to 10.4.4?

    I updated my powerbook G4 to 10.4.4. After restarting Apple's Mail application refused to open from my dock. I then tried to launch it by double clicking on the icon in the application folder. It pops up a dialog box which says, "The application Mail quit unexpectedly. Mac OS X and other applications are not affected. Click Reopen to open the application again. Click Report to see more details or send a report to Apple." When I click on the 'Reopen' button the dialog box goes away and another one pops up which says, "The application Mail quit unexpectedly after it was opened. Mac OS X and other applications are not affected. Click Try Again to temporarily restore the application's default settings and open it again. Click Report to see more details or send a report to Apple." When I click on the 'Try Again' button a new window opens called 'New Account' which 'guides' me through the necessary steps to set up my mail account. When I click 'continue' a new window opens which asks for my user name and also my .Mac account password. Once I enter this info I click on the 'continue' button and it logs into .Mac and gives me an Account Summary so it's acting like everthing is okay until I press the 'continue' button and then I get the same error message as before: "The application Mail quit unexpectedly. Mac OS X and other applications are not affected. Click Reopen to open the application again. Click Report to see more details or send a report to Apple."
    I downloaded the freeware program called Preferential Treatment by Jonathan Nathan in hopes it would remove a damaged Mail .plist file. No dice - no problems with Mail prefrence files according to this software. I'm at a loss of what to do next. I read that someone else had a similiar problem - I don't know what to do next. Any help would be really appreciated as I use my Mail program constantly. Thanks! Oh, also when entering this Post and describing my system the OS menu provided does not allow me to select OS 10.4.4. I'm sure that will be udated soon.

    OK THIS IS WHAT TO DO TO FIX THIS PROBLEM IN 30 SECONDS GO TO SETTINGS>ITUNES AND APP STORE AND JUST SIGN OUT THEN OPEN YOUR BELOVED ITUNES APP BLAM! YOU'RE WELCOME!

  • Why won't my Adobe Bridge open?

    Why won't my Adobe Bridge Open? I keep getting an error message. I first installed the free trial of Illustrator CS 6, but a few days ago joined the creative cloud. I would just uninstall & reinstall Bridge, but its not in the list of apps to install. Since joining the cloud I have also installed photoshop & indesign. Doesn't Adobe have chat support? I used in when first signing up for Cloud. Now I can't find it.
    Thanks!

    Hi Trisher83,
    Bridge gets installed along with other programs (like Illustrator or Photohop) so it might require uninstalling all CS6 products to be able to reinstall it.
    I would uninstall all CS6 products and then reinstall one which includes Bridge from a new user account and test to see if you still get the error.
    These links might be helpful for reaching support

  • Why won't Photoshop Elements 12 open?

    After being away for 3 months, I attempted to open and use PSE 12 and it does not open.  Today I uninstalled and reinstalled thinking that would help, but it doesn't.  It appears as though it's going to open, but the little "streaming" just stops.  Your assistance in resolving this problem is greatly appreciated.

    I am not a technician so I can't go too deep in the analysis... I did all I could imagine to do, I would like that somebody from Adobe would take care of this issue finding solution to the problem.

    >Hoping that you get a break through in your troubleshooting. Do not give up. I kept searching and searching for an answer to my Photoshop Elements 12 Full Editor not opening while the Elements Organizer 12 would. I have reams of data from October 2013 to April 2014 troubleshooting of the issue. Everything pointed to an activation issue but I could never target the place to fix until my break through came unexpectedly. And, as I found out, the SLStore Folder and SLCache Folder have "something" to do with activation according to the Adobe person who put forth what turned out to be the solution for me. Based on my encounter with this problem, I would say Windows No, Photoshop Elements activation Yes.

    And there we have the answer, the device was dropped.  A hardware issue exists... nothing that we can do to fix it but suggest you replace the device with a newer model or seek an Out of Warranty exchange at the Apple store.

  • Why won't some pdf-files open on tablet/phone?

    I simply get the error saying: The document cannot be opened because it's not a valid pdf-document.
    However I have no problems opening the file with my laptop, only my phone and tablet (Jellybean 4.2.2) won't open it.
    My friends also have managed to open the file on their tablets (android/windows).
    Have reinstalled and checked updates and tried other programs but none has worked for me.
    I simply have no clue and would appreciate help.

    Hey,
    Seems like the problem was in the web browser I was using, as the file just
    didn't download correctly.
    Thanks for the help anyway, much appreciated.

    Hey,
    spent some time discussing this with some friends of mine and found out
    that the document can be opened by downloading it to the computer and
    transferring then to the tablet or phone. The difference is that when
    downloading with tablet/phone I get a .pdf file, which only has some html
    code. So I guess the problem has something to do with the encryption of the
    file. Here are the 2 different files I get as attachments. After all this
    might not have anything to do with adobe, but some other stuff I don't
    really understand.

  • Why won't my Mac with Mt Lion update my calendar and address book through iCloud

    Why won't my Mac w Mt Lion update mt Calendar and Address book through the Icloud?

    Are you really still running Snow Leopard (10.6.8) as shown in your profile? If so, that's why. Full use of iCloud needs at least Lion 10.7.2 or Mountain Lion.
    If you have upgraded to Mountain Lion and forgot to update your profile, here are some things to check:
    Is it on a network?
    Is it signed into iCloud? The same iCloud Account?
    Are Contacts and "Calendars & Reminders" checked in the iCloud and same account's "Mail, Contacts & Calendars" panels of System Preferences?
    Are you looking at the correct accounts in Calendar and Contacts?

  • Why won't my Creaive Cloud find new updates for software?

    Why won't my Creaive Cloud find new updates for software? For example, I know Illustrator 17.1 has been released with cool new features; however, my creative cloud seems to be oblivious to this update and any other updates and I do not know how to make work properly again. Creative cloud hasn't prompted me to update any software for over a month and so it is likely missing plenty of updates; however, it is the Illustrator update I want most.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Lee

    Lee if you remove and reinstall Illustrator do the new updates get applied?  If not then please review your installation log files for the error which may be preventing the update from being applied.  You can find information on how to locate and interpret your installation log files at Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html.  Please feel free to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion.

  • Why won't movie trailer files open in Quicktime

    Each time I try to open a movie trailer file in my Quick time pro I see a down load window with a small X box at the top left hand of the window.
    Why won't these files open. When I go to the same files in Itune Store I have no difficulty downloading and playing

    I had a similar problem a few weeks ago, but nobody gave me a reply. I don't know if it helps in your case, but I eventually found out it was my firewall blocking the download.
    I could view SD trailers but not the HD ones for some reason.

  • Why does Export for Digital Editions fail?

    I am trying to export a 32 page magazine from Indesign into a digital eition - am I keep getting an a message saying 'Failed to export'. When I try to export a single page it veiws as rows of text rather than the orignal design. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

    You won't get the original design. ebooks are meant to look that way.
    While you can maintain someof the formatting, the text all needs to be contained in one continuous flow. That means anchoring every photo, sidebar, etc to the text. For complex layouts it's a lot of effort. Digital Editions also has a habit of dropping fonts (though it does embed them).
    Either way you'll probablt want this if you choose to go the ebook route: http://blogs.adobe.com/digitaleditions/2008/10/a_great_tool_for_making_small.html

  • Why won't my iphone download the apple updates from the apple store?

    Hi cindyhildy, follow these instructions below it has fixed my issue and should work for you.
    Open app store, get the message "unable to connect to iTunes store", go to settings, change year to the last year it will let you (think I went to 2038), double tap home button and close app store,  go to home screen and then open app store and touch updates panel, should get a message "cannot get secure connection to server or something like that" go back to settings and reset the year to current.
