Question

Authorization Issues

Over christmas, I bought myself on a new ebook on my laptop, downloading it onto my reader library. On the laptop I used my own adobe account, seeing as I had one before hand. But, when I got my ereader, it was pre-registared onto my parents account on a different computer. Not seeing the difference between having it on two different accounts.

So, when I tried adding my new books to my sony eread (model PRS-600/RC), it wouldn't let me, claiming the books were authorized to another account.

I am wondering if there is anyway to redownload the book to a different account or transfer the books to the other account because the only way I can read them is online, which defeats the purpose of an ereader

Please respond! Thanks!

    Yes, there is a way to strip the DRM. You may find it helpful to read my post “What to do if you can’t authorise your ereader”. You’ll find it down further.

    Or, is there a way to strip the DRM from the books that I bought on the other computer? Or is there a way to authorize an ereader to multiple accounts? I've read something on both, I just can't seem to find it anymore..
