Just downloaded/installed ADE today and what a pain I'm having.  Have read everything I can on how to dl the book from computer to device and no joy!  Device is both Sony PRS-T1 and PRS-T2.  Appears the T1 is recognized according to the list, but not the T2.  Only thing I can think of is I'm running Win10 as the OS.  Could this be the problem?

I, too cannot download e-books from my computer to my Kobo.  It tells me that the "Content You are trying to view is locked"  and it advises me to us my Adobe ID to authorize my e-reader.  I have given the authorization but to not avail.  Still will not download.  Jacqui

it's been almost a month now that ADE is not working and every version !  I was on version 4.5 then it stopped working, de-installed it installed version 3.0, still not working even tried version 2.0 but Nothing works anymore !  We are a lot of frustrated users now and Adobe is not helping us !  I have tried everything people on here suggested but still Nothing   even reinitialized my Kobo !  Someone suggested using the program CALIBRE but we still need ADE to transfer .acsm into epub !!! I am on Window 10 also and it was working fine with ADE 4.5 until about a month ago.

Thank you for the reply, but seems you’re having problems w/ADE as well. However, I found a work around to get the epub books to my device. The directory that ADE has: C:\users\your name\documents\my digital editions is the folder where all your books are stored. I am also a CALIBRE user, have been for years, and just today discovered how to move the books to my reader. Simply copy the epub from this directory to the directory where your OTHER books are stored. Open CALIBRE and copy the epub you want via usb cable from computer to reader. You’re done!
