Error getting License

Guest
Feb 15, 2015 Feb 15, 2015

I installed OSX Yosemite and Adobe Digital Edition 4.0.

Since then I cannot import new books (from Kobo) and I cannot see anymore the books, which I bought earlier.

The error message is:

Error getting License. License Server Communication Problem:

E_ACT_NOT_READY

I tried to solve the problem by de- and reauthorization.

However, this was impossible. The program did not recognize my password. A new password did not help.

Had a chat about this with the Adobe people. They had me reauthorize

and trash the file activation.dat.  be sur you authorize with the right vendor id. I thought i had to use Overdrive's but found that i had to do it with Adobe's.

Thank you for the quick response.

Where is this file? I found similar files by opening the ADE package, but none of them with the name activation.dat.

It was in

/Users/Doug/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions

I had to use Terminal to remove it since Spotlight couldn't find it.

that is on the command line in Terminal type:

rm /Users/Doug/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital

Editions/activation.dat

Substitute your login for Doug in the above path.

I tried many times, no chance.

I get the message " No such file or directory"

ADE not very reliable I've found. I just decided to read it in my browser when I'm on a computer.
