ADE crashing constantly

[137dpw]

Two weeks ago the ADE stopped working.  It would crash as soon as I plugged in my nook.  After a half dozen or so restarts, uninstall and reinstalls, deauthorizations, authorizations, etc etc, I reached out to BN and they told me that Adobe made a change on their end without notification, and a patch was needed to the nook So a week or so later that was released, installed on my nook, and lo and behold.  The ADE is still not working,  It crashes immediately upon opening.  Since one cannot read a library book without ade, seems to me that adobe no longer wishes to provide this software.  Any comments or response from Adobe?

Would Adobe take notice if the hundreds of thousands of people who hate ADE (i.e. every single university student and employee) bombarded their sales department with ADE complaints?
