Closed Digital Edition.

In the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder.

In the Go To Folder dialog box, type ~/Library

Click Go.

Go in the folder Application Support > Adobe > Digital Editions and drag the activation.dat file to the trash.

Empty the Trash.

Restart the Digital Editon and authorze again.
