problems I’m having with Adobe digital editions

1. Hi.

I hope that you can help me sort out the problems I’m having with Adobe digital editions. I installed it when I bought an e-book reader, and it worked just fine.

I think the problems started after I downloaded some updates, and I can still download books from my public library onto my laptop, but can’t transfer them to my e-book reader.

It says that my laptop is not authorised, and when I try to authorise it I get the following statement which is printed in red on my screen.

Activation server error.

Code:  e_auth_not_ready

Digital edidtions encountered an error on the activation server

I hope that the above will give you some insight into what my problem might be, and that you can suggest a fix for it.

Thank you so much for any help you are able to give me.

Regards, ron.

ps I'm using ver 3 and can't find answers in the FAQ section.
