Today I got a brand new Sony PSC 900 ereader.

I plugged it in, loaded up Digital Editions and guess what?  The Digital Editions program did not recognize my device.

So, i am unalble to download and view books on my reader.

I uninstalled and re-installed digital editions.

I was able to use Calibre with no problems whatsoever so i know its not the reader.

Can anyone assist me?

Thanks.

Ariel

    You didn't mention whether you've activated your new ereader with the SONY

    Reader Store or not. You must do that first, because ADE will look to see

    that it has been done before it will authenticate the device and permit you

    to transfer ebooks to it.

    During that process, be sure to tell the SONY Reader Store that you do NOT

    want SONY to handle .epub and .ascm documents - that's the job of ADE.

    Once you've activated your ereader, please follow the instructions that come

    with it to set it up with ADE.

    Thanks so much for your response.

    My reader works now after installing the reader software on my computer.
