    Start Digital Edition.
    Press ctrl + shift + d (windows) + cmd + shift + d (macintosh)

    Then accept that should remove the authorize.

    After this enter data under Digital Edition again.

    Hi Nanaky,

    I have a similar problem, I've tried to change the authorisation (Thanks for the cmd + shift + d BTW), but it did not work. It does not allow me to change it, it says "It's not possible to cancel the authorisation. Try it later". I've tried it the day after, but no change so far...

    I've tried to download again ADE 4.5 but same issue...
