Hi:
I've downloaded an ebook (as a URL Link file) from my local library. When I try to open it, I receive the following message:
"Error getting License. License Server Communication Problem:
E_AUTH_BAD_DEVICE_KEY_OR_PKCS12"
I've tried this on URL files from two different libraries. I've also checked the version of Digital Editions is authorised and I've downloaded the most recent version. I'm still getting this error.
Can anyone please help me resolve this issue?
Thanks
Catherine

Answer:
For this problem, you need to deauthorize and authorize ADE again.
If due to some reason, you are unable to deauthorize ADE, follow the below steps:
Mac:
1. Go-> Go to folder.
Go to folder dialog will appear.
2. Type ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions
drag the activation.dat file to the trash.
ADE will be deauthorized

Problem solved. Thank you! I can´t understand why Adobe cannot fix it in Adobe Digital Editions.
For me as a stupid user it makes a "Catch-22" situation...
Thank you once again//Tryggve
