Question

Digital Editions keeps crashing

Been using it for a while now without issues. Could easily copy my downloaded library ebooks to the ereader.

 

Today I wanted to do that again, and all of a sudden, it keeps crashing. When trying to copy the book to the ereader, the copy screen goes into an endless loop and DE stops responding. When I ultimately end the process and restart DE, it wont even find my library and I have to do a complete reboot for it to show my books.

 

Nothing changed as far as updates go, since the last time I used it. Already tried reinstalling, but that didnt work.

 

Anyone have a clue as to why it has this annoying behavior all of a sudden and perhaps have a fix?

    Update: despite not finishing the copying and being in an endless loop, the book does appear on the ereader for some reason, and is readable. The crashing is still happening, so that didnt change.

    Hey, you probably figured out something months ago, but I had a problem (on a Mac) with DE crashing for me, and had to go to Users > MyName > Library > Application Support > Adobe > Digital Editions and I erased the two files I found them and emptied the trash. It seems to be working fine now. I got the idea by searching up other Adobe software crashing problems, because I started thinking maybe it was a general Adobe problem instead of a DE problem.

    Happy Reading!

    Oh and forgot, if I want to see what is currently on the ereader and click it in DE, it also crashes, which it also has never done before.
