Another dumb query from a newbie!

Panda Rose · 08-12-2009, 04:09 PM

I have my 505 ssort of et up with Digital Adobe and also the ebook library. However, the ebook library is not showing the library from the Adobe digital.
Should I be able to see the stuff I bought from Waterstones etc? If so, how do I connect the 2 libraries? i thought it would be a bit like an iTunes library, but I am sadly mistaken.

Hi Panda

It's not a dumb question...

No, the two libraries are until now separated- Adobe Digital Library's usual formats (ePub and PDF- Waterstones sells ePubs) aren't supported by Sony Library until now. I understand there will be an update very soon, since Sony will switch to the ePub standard for its shop, and that will be quite the end of this mess!

thanks for the reply. Now I understand what is happening - sort of!

Actually, you can open EPUB and PDF files in eBook Library. But you'll have to add them manually - either from the ADE's library or from the Reader.
