Question

Books won't download from Overdrive to Adobe Digital Editions Correctly

Whenever I hit "DOWNLOAD EPUB eBook" when I am in my Overdrive Library account trying to download a book, it does pull up Adobe Digital Editions. 

But then it the book won't download.  It just keeps "downloading content" forever, but does not actually stop or finish.

So then I exit Adobe Digital Editions, and try "DOWNLOAD EPUB eBook" again. 

And again, the book won't download.  It just keeps "downloading content" forever, but does not actually stop or finish.

Sometimes, when I exit, it says that the program is not responding.

Then I pull up Adobe Digital Editions without downloading the book, and it has two copies of the book on Adobe Digital Editions.  So I remove one, because I only need one, not two.  Then I right-click "read" on the other book, and Adobe Digital Editions freezes up and says the program is not responding.

Please help.  I don't know if I have to reset up Adobe Digital Editions or not.  But it is not working for me at all.

Do you used a new version of the opeating system of Mac? If yes seems at moments problem with library, Digital Edition and this os. Better you used a older version of Digital Edition 1.7.2.

I actually have a Toshiba PC.  Also, I cannot find an older version to download.  Do you have a link to Digital Edition 1.7.2 ?
