I/O Error

[_Michelle_Dulfo_]

System: Windows XP, Firefox, office network (with firewall, proxy)
Error Message: IOError on Network Request. Please check your network connection and try again. Network Path: htpp://... Error #2038

Please help. I originally had Adobe Reader 7, and I was perfectly able to download and view DRM-protected ebooks. However, since I upgraded to Adobe Reader 8 and Digital Editions, I can't view an ebook any more. I have limited privileges with the firewall, but this should not have been a problem since I was able to view the ebook before. Thanks!

Hi, I am trying to download books from my library and I get a picture of the cover but a message that says Failed to Download Content.

Do you have any advice for me please?

I have been using the same method for ten years without problems, but now this is happening and I am losing hope.

I am not very good at this tech stuff so any help needs to be step by step instruction for dummies.

Thanks for reading.

hi Martin,

I seem to be having the same problem. I have Windows Vista and I use firefox 2.0.0.6. I cannot complete my DRM activation and my Digital editions cannot open ebooks. I have had this for 2 weeks now and its becoming a problem as i need to access ebooks as part of my Bschool course.

The specific error i get in Digital Editions is "IO Error on Network request. Please check your network connection and try again"

I have been following this thread carefully and desperately need help.

Good to know I am generating some buzz. My understanding is that ADE does not need to be "activated" in the same sense as Reader 6.0 or 7.0. It activates upon installation. Installation should have created a Voucher folder in Library/application support/adobe/digital edition or similar. I am on the Mac. As I have pointed out our problem is that the voucher folder is never created therby no ebook downloads.

Adobe has also suggested that Firewalls are an issue. So check your firewall. I of course do not have a firewall!!!

Keep up on the thread for the latest info.

I continually have I/O problems and program crashing when Adobe Reader 8.1 tries to open a pdf file. I have WinXP, Office 2003 Firefox 2.0.0.8. I uninstall AR 8 and installed 8.1 and still have problem. george

I have contacted George directly. Anyone else seeing this problem, please submit a support incident at www.adobe.com/support/digitaleditions/. Thanks.

Hi

I'm writing to you because I have a similar problem. Not that it has anything to do with DE but I'm not able to upload anything when using FLEX (also using Filereference to perform upload) on a MAC platform. The problem exist ONLY on a MAC platform not on Windows which I think suggests that is has nothing to do with DRM-protection or DE but merely the uploading procedure that somehow does not comply the MAC platform.

Please read my case on this link:

Hi there, do you have a solution for this problem??? I have the same on XP and I really need to solve it.

Many thanks.

[_Debra_Singer_]

My solution was to make sure there were no unusual characters in the names of my hard drive and subsequent files. Once I removed those characters everything ran smoothly. This issue will be addressed with the next release of ADE.

Good Luck.

Ever since the latest Adobe Acrobat reader update I have not been able to view the newspaper scans I was previously able to see just a week ago from NewspaperArchive.com and it is very frustrating since I pay for their subscription. I am having the same identical freeze up on both IE7 and Firefox and my computer is XP. The page won't open and the pop of message for Adobe Reader says: A file I/O error has occurred. So what exactly do I have to do to resolve this problem and get it where the pages will open again?

I'm getting Server IO Error when trying to edit or upload images on Photobucket. The page stalls and will not advance beyond 12% on their progress scale. I'm using Firefox, but IE has the same problem. This seemed to have happened post the latest Firefox update, but why would IE be affected?

Any ideas appreciated.

[_Michelle_Dee_]

this is happening to me as well...

Hi,

I'm having the same IO error (#2038: error on network request) and was just wondering whether a solution has been found? If not, what would anyone recommend I do with my eBooks since I can't open them???

Are there any temporary solutions to this? I don't have any non-English characters as far as I know (unless you have to check every single files and folders in your computer)by looking at my external.

Please help!! Thx.

hi,

I have been having the same problem.The ebooks donot open into the Adobe Digital Editions.

I am not knowledgable in technical jargan.So I cannot explain anything.

But I tried and found a solution.

When I get the error message it gives an error path also.I tried copying and pasting the pathway into my browser window  and downloaded  the book.It  opened in Adobe Digital Edition.

So,please try this and let me know if you succeed.

Best wishes.
