I'm trying to authorize my computer. I get the message that "ADE cannot connect to the authorization server. Please check your internet connection." My internet is fine. I've tried de-authorizing and re-authorizing, uninstalling and reinstalling.. any other suggestions?

    Two that might help.

    1) check your firewall and antivirus.  Maybe even try with them (temporarily) turned off.

    2) There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0.  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.
