did not find it possible to transfer bought or lent ebooks that are in protected format .acsm on the mac to the sony reader; it would however function on the windows pc, using a combination of Adobe Digital Edition and Sony Reader for PC (which is 32bit only);

transfer acsm first to ADE, and from there open the directory to the location of the now downloaded epub, open this epub then in Sony Reader for PC, and transfer it from the software to the Sony Reader. Just plain USB cable needed, no Wifi.

Tried many times the same with MacOS, it just would not function (presumably the Sony Reader for MacOS is older than the windows version, and hence the same procedure would not function).

if you just want to transfer content via USB to Sony Reader, sure you can find a way, but sometimes upgrades breaks things, it has been mentioned that older USB 1.1 support is flaky in newer macs; thhink you need to take that into account.
