    After wasting even more time, and changing computers, I finally managed to re download the book. Not that you care, but I'm totally unimpressed with Adobe Digital Editions and I will avoid using it wherever I can.

    Thanks for not helping.

    When I try this, I get an error message saying that the account cannot be deauthorized and to try again later.  I've tried this several times over a long period.

       Navigate to /Users//Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions and drag the activation.dat file to the trash.

    I have just wasted 15 minutes trying to chat with someone about this issue only to be told to go away because it's a free product.

    Simple question - I need to deauthorize an e-book. I downloaded it to a Windows 10 computer and then tried to load it onto a Sony PRS-T1 e-reader. It says the file is corrupt. I need to re-download the book from my e-book supplier (Booktopia/Australia). How do I do that?

    Thanks
