I have installed ADE and authorized my Overdrive account. When I connect my device to the computer, it does not show in ADE. My computer acknowledge that my tablet is connected yet ADE does not. Any thoughts.

I have the same question and I'm not using a tablet. I'm using an old Kobo (my preferred device) and an Arc. All I want to do is borrow library books.

Same- I contacted the support team and they haven't been able to help me yet. They are saying my device isn't authorized even though it is. It is because ADE isn't recognizing I have a device connected.

Were you able to solve your issue yet?

Unfortunately I have the same problem: My kobo-ereader isn't shown anymore in ADE.

This results in the fact that I cannot transfer any book to my ereader. Q; what to do?.

This way not work with tablets only with eBook Reader. On tabletts has you only a ebook App. So you must transfer the eBooks over the file system and open then in the Tablet in the app.
