Authorising a computer

We got carried away and authorised my partners computer to me (that will teach me to take over!).  It now won't let him download library books from his Digital Editions to his e-reader.  How do we (I) put this right?

    ADE operates on the premise that the ID being used for ADE has to match the

    ID that was embedded in the ebook when it was downloaded. This premise

    stems from the Digital Millenium Copyright Act of 2000, which was enacted

    to 'eliminate' the unauthorized distribution and copying of epublications.

    Thus, the ID in effect when you open ADE will be matched to the ebooks in

    the library.

    You can change the ID in effect. It's covered in the ADE HELP section (F1

    key when in Library mode). Look at the command key section. You

    de-authorize ADE under one ID and then authorize it under the other.
