Authorising Adobe Digital Editions

[Adobe54122018]

Hi there,

I am trying to share my resources with colleagues.

I have put all of my edocuments etc, onto a shared location on the network.  Permissions are valid and everyone can view/access these files using Windows Explorer.

That's both for security and sharing permissions.

When I install the Adobe DIgital Editions on multiple machines, I cannot use the same account to authorise these devices because the "account has already been used"

If I try to access the files without authorising the computer, I am unable to access the files either as they seem to be locked to the one account.

I am currently using a 365 in cloud account created by my organisation.

Do I need a different type of account in order for this to work?

Would appreciate your help and suggestions.

Thanks
