Hi.

I just downloaded Digital Editions. Needed to activate my computer and login with my Adobe ID. It was unable to active because of the error: E_ADEPT_RESET_PW_REQUIRED. So i changed my Adobe ID password and still got this error.

Can anyone help me solve this problem? Would love to add books with DRM on my ereader. Thanks in advance.

    I have the same error message. Did you fix it ?

    Hi, yeah solved it. For Adobe Digital Editions all the Adobe accounts need to be transferred to ByteBooks. (https://dtsbytebooks.com/register). You can choose the option “I already have an Adobe account”. Once you fixed that, you can login with that account in Adobe Digital Editions. Worked for me!
