I was trying to download Adobe Digital Editions, but I get an error 404 from the page where it is supposed to be (http://www.adobe.com/solutions/ebook/digital-editions.html ). Can I download it from somewhere else?

    After much Google search i found this page: Installation issues for Adobe Digital Editions 4.0

    Which contains this link: https://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editions/kb/cant-install-digital-editions/_jcr_content/main-pars/procedure_2/proc_par/st…

    from which I could download ADE 4.0 and install it. I don’t know if it is the latest version of the software, but it is recent enough to allow me to download and read some ebook I bought.

    Anyway, I hope Adobe  will fix the official page at some point.

    Don't download Digital Editions.  It is ABSOLUTELY the worst app I have ever tried using.  
    Consider yourself blessed for not being able to download this piece of trash.

      For MAC users, I found this download page that will give you the most recent version:

      Download Adobe Digital Editions for Mac : Free Download : MacUpdate

      Make sure to not install iDoctor along with it. If it downloads, just delete the package from your downloads folder.

          Thanks Se'.

          I followed your link, and was able to download version 4.0

          I installed version 4.0 and it worked like a charm on windows 10. Upon starting the application, it detected the latest version and asked me if I want to download version 4.5.6. I did that and was successful.

          Now I have version 4.5.6 installed.

          Regards
