i can't authorize my computer for digital editions. Whenever I try I get an authorization error

these are user-to-user forums and this thread is more than 6 years old so not many of us keep up-to-date with old threads like this and other adobe experts aren't likely to check a thread that already has a correct answer.

anyway, either start a new thread so others can see you have question or if you want to contact adobe using a browser that allows popups and cookies, contact adobe support during pst business hours by clicking here, https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html

click contact us (in the lower right)
in the chat field, type AGENT
be patient, it can take quite a while to reach a human

I had the same problem. I found the solution. Follow the instructions on this link: Error "E_AUTH_NOT_READY" | Digital Editions

Adobe Digital Editions get the same message as glad on my computer as well.  I have tried to reload digital editions.  I went to original website and tried to redownload the books and the same thing keeps occurring.  But when I check to see if the computer is authorized, it says it is.  HELP!!!
