    I know it's kinda late to reply now and I'm not sure how many of you will see this but try using Pg up and Pg dn keys. Mine are located on the arrow keys so I have to combine them with the Fn key. 

    Hope this helps!

    Scrolling works, but is very awkward.  All we want is a simple button to advance one page at a time.  I'm amazed that this basic page turning feature is not present.  Black eye for Adobe.

        Everyone, here is the solution. Download "Bluefire Reader" and use that app. Adobe Digital Edition is no good

          Hey everyone,

          I downloaded ADE on my tablet after purchasing a graphic novel online. Unfortunately, I'm having a difficult time using the tool because there is no navigation bar that I could use to turn the page, it only turns one way which is from last to first (I'm reading manga btw), so I'm not sure how I can properly read my manga using my tablet. Help!

          You can use the mouse to scroll up and/or down - magic mouse you just move your finger vertically. wheel the same. BTW - after all these years of people asking, this is on the adobe web site:

          How do I scroll or navigate through a book?

          Depending on the type of book, you can use the mouse to scroll up or down a page. You can also use the horizontal scroll bar at the bottom of the screen to scroll through your books.

          To navigate to a specific page, enter the page number in the horizontal scroll bar, and the view jumps to that page.

          That's the entire point of this post... sterhill: what you have suggested doesn't work, the mouse doesn't scroll, the arrows don't do anything, none of those suggestions (which would be the first thing tried) have turned a single page in any book in this program.

            for me - on an imac running 10.14.6 - the mouse will vertically scroll and there is also an arrow at the bottom of the book's page where you can click to scoll horizonly

            I created a simple tool to page back and forward (pgup & pgdown) on Windows machines when using Adobe Digital Editions. This tool (ADE Navigator) stays on top while you're reading.

            I know that it has been years since this post but, I had this problem then came here. What I found continent is to click the (mcat prep) letters right next to the page number and then I can now flip the page back and forth with the up and down or left and right arrows.

            I have Win 7 and Adobe Digital Editions 4.5. Per the pull down under "Reading" in the menu bar (upper left corner) it shows that the short cuts to use are "page up" and "page down", this seems to work for me (OR the up and down arrows).

            I've just updated to ADE 4.5 on Mac OSX El Capitan (and removed and reinstalled twice).

            a. I can't turn a page (well sometimes after mousing a round a bit it suddenly turn half a dozen)

            b. it has greyed out the three authoriz* menu options under help (so can't share across devices)

            I have used ADE 4.0 on my previous Windows 7 laptop and it worked fine. Just installed ADE 4.0 on my new Windows 7 laptop and now have this same problem. it actually is a screen refresh or update issue. if I go to a different page the reading screen does not change. If I close the book and then reopen the screen is now on the correct page.
