When I checked the info on the book in the folder it had all the right info, 374 kb EPUB file, but it wont open it, it just flashes then nothing. I will try books from here, I didnt even think about it. I do have fictionwise content already for my eb1150, I will try one of those files when I get home.
Its just a bummer to buy a book in a format you know is supposed to work and it doesnt.
Thank you for your help. Everyone in this forum is great.
I really like this reader, the screen on it is great and the size and the cover are awesome, I just wish I could read what I bought.
How did you transfer it to your device? I am running ADE on linux with WINE, but I was able to drag and drop the books from the library view within ADE onto my pocketbook "shelf." Everything worked fine. You've authorized the pocketbook, correct?
