Digital Editions

Hi, I want to download an e-book from an online library to my kobo e-reader using Digital Editions.This worked fine a few weeks ago when I last used it. However, today I get the 'e_auth_not_ready' message when downloading the e-book.I followed the steps on the troubeshooting site and deauthorized the computer and e-reader and removed the dat file, but now I get the e_auth_bad_device_key error message when trying to authorize them again. I followed the steps for that error message and checked the settings in keychain, which are fine. Still the error messages occur and I cannot download the e-book. My ID and password are correct as I can login on the adobe site with them, so that's not the issue.Chatting with an Adobe agent did not help as they only referred to the steps described which I already tried. They refered me to this forum.Can someone help me out? Thanks!Julie

I have an old Adobe account that I have lost the password for and have also lost access to the email address.  Therefore I cannot reset the password, so I cannot deauthorize this PC.

hello!i signed in the beggining of the year as a student (20euros per month for a year), not knowing that if i want to cancel i will be charged 50% of the remaining amount.now i want to cancel my subscription but i would have to pay about 70euros and i am trying to avoid that. Adobe offered me the option to change my plan instead if canceling, so i was thinking of changing it to a cheaper one and then cancel MY QUESTION is - will i be obliged to the NEW cheaper plan for another full year or will it be until the end of this year?thank you very much for the helpers

Hi guys, I tested Adobe Digital for some person and used my Adobe ID to authorize computerThen I download eBook that person purchased. Now, that person wants to download the same eBook but this time using his own Adobe ID.Unfortunately he is unable to do that because there is now link between eBook and my Adobe ID I used to authorize Adobe Digital on my computer. Is it possible to break the link between eBook and computer authorization I did using my Adobe ID so that another person could use the same eBook after authorizing computer using his personal Adobe ID. Regards

It worked fine this morning and now nothing. I've tried un/reinstalling, opening as admin, changing library folder name and nothing works.

I’m having a terrible time getting an exported InDesign 3.0 epub to preview using Adobe Digital Editions. ADE opens but then hangs when trying to open the epub. The same file opens correctly in Overdrive, Calibre, MS Edge, and Ice Cream ereaders. This is new behavior since the last update to ADE and InDesign. I’ve tried the following so far:1. Uninstalled ADE, rebooted and reinstalled.2. Uninstalled ADE, cleaned registry of all references to ADE, deleted “My Digital Editions” directory, rebooted then reinstalled.3. De-authorized and re-authorized ADE with my Adobe ID.Nothing works. While I can preview in the other e-readers, I’d like to see book in ADE. Are there any special parameters I may have missed in the export preferences? Error messages on export:-Custom Layout settings in Object Export Options have not been honored for group children, button states and inline objects.-Drop caps, Run-in style, line style and GREP style applied as style overrides are ignored. These are only supp

Just downloaded, installed and ID verified the Adobe Digital Edition file and successfully procured my first ebook. After download and verification I can't read full page when opening and reading document, bottom 2-3 lines of page is missing? Have tried full screen view without luck. My plan was to use ADE because I many time can't wait for shipment of books, but have to go back to books if this problem can't be solved.How to solve problem, please help???

Bonjour,J'avais la possibilité d'employer l'application Adobe Digital Edition sur Windows 7 sans aucun souci, ni pour l'installation ni par la suite. Cette application me permettait de lire un livre acheté sur Altiko, bibliothèque sur Android Samsung - tablette Note 10.1.J'ai changé d'ordinateur pour le windows 10; j'ai réinstallé adobe digital edition et depuis lors tout m'est refusé. Adobe veut je suppose une autorisation et à chaque intervention de ma part, il m'est indiqué : "Id ou mot de passe erronés. Réessayez ." J'ai changé mon mot de passe par trois fois. Adobe me reconnaît avec mon Id et donc je ne crois qu'il faille changer d'Id mais peut-être que si?Où est le bug?J'ai lu que je pouvais aller dans le registre de Windows mais est-ce bien nécessaire? Je n'ai pas envie de faire une erreur.Je ne comprend pas pourquoi tout allait très bien avec Windows 7 et plus maintenant. Je ne comprend pas non plus pourquoi Adobe me reconnaît sur le site avec mes coordonnées et pas pour l'auto

E_ACT_TOO_MANY_ACTIVATIONS Error when trying to authorize an E-Reader

Whenever I click on an internal link, is there any way to immediately return to where I was before clicking? I'd love it if this operated more like a browser, with a back button and maybe even the ability to open links in new tabs within the program. That would be perfect. Unfortunately, my understanding of how to use the program as it currently exists discourages me from using any of those would-be helpful navigational links added to indices and such. It's great to be able to perform a quick search for individual words and phrases in this roughly-two-million-word-length study bible I'm trying to get through, but it's kind of a bummer to have to scroll back to where I had just been after clicking on a cross-reference. If anyone has a better solution to share with me--hopefully something like a back button that I've simply overlooked--I would much appreciate it.

I have purchased and ebook and trying to open but keep getting the above connection error.

I just download the app in my iPhone, even login the adobe ID but cannot read any file. It keeps asking the Deauthorize , what can I do?

I have a new Dell Laptop that has windows 10, I have tried adobe 3.0 & 4.5 and only a partial of books that I own appear in my library. I have erased the authorization, restarted the laptop. I uninstalled and reinstalled adobe editions tried both 3.0 & 4.5 with the same results. Has anyone else experienced this or have a solution to rectify this issue?

I have tried downloading and uninstalling several times. I have tried to deactivate authorization and it says try later. I am on a MacBook running 10.13.6. I have tried going to ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions/  and there is no such file in order to delete the activation.dat file. I have tried the 3.0 version as well. I am not sure what to do next.  Can anyone offer some insight?

I recently purchased a new Nook. When I try to open my library downloads, I am prompted to enter my Adobe ID and password...which doesn’t work. I never had to follow this step in the past. I have the latest version of Adobe and I have authorized my computer and device. My passwords are synced with Overdrive. I am completely stumped. So is my librarian. Any thoughts or help?

comment transférer des livres de la bibliotheque municipale sur ma liseuse KOBO, je ne trouve pas la rubrique AUTORISER dans l´aide de ADE pour autoriser la lecture sur ma liseuse

I have a number of books that have no digital rights restriction but when I try to open them ADE hangs.I found a comment about renaming the library folder and starting again, but that has had no effect.One of the books is Pro Git by Scott Chacon. I have tried re-downloading it repeatedly, the page is https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2  but have not been able to open it in ADE.I can open it just fine in Microsoft Edge, but do not consider that a solution.I have tried with installations of ADE on Windows 7 and Windows 10. On Windows 10 ADE stops responding. On Windows 7, latest install, I do eventually get an error message that there is an issue with the file, previously that also stopped responding.I get the same problems with a number of other technical documents.I have also tried to read the same document using ADE 2, and it worked perfectly.Message was edited by: Dave Bolt, added missing information.
