I have a Kobo e-reader and use the Calgary Public Library system (overdrive and 3M). When I download book from library to the e-reader I recieve various errors. I have downloaded Adobe 3.0, un-authorized, re-authorized  etc. I recieive no errors using 3M but all these issues using Adobe Digital. It appears only happens using the library site. Very frustrating

‌OK, last post sorry don't mean to hog the thread. I did a little experiment where I just had 3M on one computer. 3M will hog ADE and ADE will not accept downloads from OverDrive. I was able to switch my Nook between my desktop and PC with ease. so if you have a PC and laptop or a nice friend willing to share his computer with you.

I think it's because it won't let you do both? I'm almost in tears this very minute after hours of fussing with this. I have found some titles in 3M, some in OverDrive. I think if you've authorized your computer with either or, it will only allow you to read titles from the one you've authorized ADE with. I could be wrong, it's just my guess.

Never mind. The software is just an a-hole as it pleases.

Nevermind again. I was right. . . . Maybe if you had 2 computers?

I'm having the same problem.  We have a new laptop and never had an issue before.  Adobe help is NO HELP!!! They say go to the forum-where no one has an answer.  VERY Frustatrated
