Adobe ID not working

Question

Re-posted as case shut down in 2 min when I walked away from my lappy; sooooo frustating when waited so long for somebody to reply

I use Sony e-reader for my e-books. Suddenly, last week I'm unable to download. I'll sometimes be able to download book but it won't transfer into my Sony e-reader.

Apparently in Adobe Digital Editions, whenever I type in my Adobe ID & password, it replies every time "activation server error." I'd just reset my password again & still same message regarding error. Why am I having such difficulty ?!?!?!

[mod: moved Adobe Digital Editions forum.]
