I am able to download library books in ADE (version 4.5) but unable to transfer them in my Kobo Aura, even though the device is authorized. I have unauthorized it-authorized it, and tried for hours re-transfering but nothing works. I have read to un-install ADE version 4.5 and install version 3.0 but it seems not to be available anymore. My ereader recognizes the books bought from Kobo of course, but not the ones passing trhough ADE (from library). Anyone can help?

    Now that Cloud Library has disappeared and we have BorrowBox I can't download to my Kobo Glo.  Everything is as it was, ADE and computer authorised for years, but I cannot download when the ADE box appears.  Even though it says "fulfilling......" when I check my Kobo there is nothing there.  Someone has slipped up somewhere with all these problems.  Maybe the softward needs looking at.  Had all these problems with Cloud until someone put it right.  Please have a good look at it.

    I am also having the same issue. My local libary directed me to ask Adobe, and Adobe says they cannot help as the software has been discontinued. Not sure what to do now

    Having the exact same problem. Lots of people reporting problems with Adobe Digital Editions online, but Adobe doesn't seem to be fixing it, and their bug report form doesn't include Adobe Digital Editions as an option. It's like the software has been abandoned...

    Exactly. All the tips I can find are older than 2020 and many of them refer to downloading the ADE 3.0 version - but this is not available anymore. I tried so many things, I don't know what to do. I bought the Kobo to be able to read the library books, not to buy each books 😞
