Having just bought an E-book , I downloaded Adobe digita; solutions as advised.. The publisher permits use of this book on several devices at once. However. their name is not on the authorisation list, so i authorised my Macbook Air using my Adobe id. When I came to authorise my PC, I was refused on the grounds that my id could only auhorise one computer.

Any thoughts?
