Question

Adobe Digital Editions /Windows 8.1

I have tried numerous times to install Digital Editions to my computer with 8.1 Windows.  It immediately comes up showing a screen with a few random library books I borrowed in 2013.  There are no options to connect to anything, including my library, and I cannot get/see any of the titles currently checked out.  I want to be able to check out library books and sideload them to my new Nook Glow (you cannot directly download to it.)  In the past, I have downloaded library books directly to my tablet and phone using an app called Overdrive with no problems.  I can download that app to my computer, and it shows my currently checked out books, but gives no option to save, copy, past or drag so that I can sideload it to the Nook Glow.  I have spent many hours trying everything I could think of, and so has the Geek Squad and Nook support.  I am so frustrated. I just want to be able to sideload library books onto my Nook Glow.  There has to be some way to do it.

      I have installed it and uninstalled it many times - all of the versions.  Yes, I can open it, and it shows several library books I read 2 years ago.  I can drag them, but they are long expired.  That is the only page I can open. There is no option to open a program, connect to a library or anywhere else.  Nothing but this one bookshelf and several empty bookshelves.

      I did authorize the computer.  It will not let me deauthorize it.
