I'm having trouble getting books from ADE over to the Reader...it's not recognizing the authorization. My library is offering secure PDFs as well as Adobe EPub files, and I get a 'protected page' error when I try to open them in the reader.
I'll try deauthorizing the reader and reauthorizing to see if it helps. ARgh! |

Sorry...another question. Is there any way to get a library book - imported using Adobe Digital Editions - to go into a collection folder in my eBook library? I'd like to stash my library books where I can see them easily.

You can use ADE to copy the book to the Reader and then use eBook Library to organize your collections.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I tried importing the files from the 'My Digital Editions' folder on my computer, but then I get DRM errors saying I'm not authorized to use the file. |

Is your 505 authorized with ADE?

It is. When I plugged it in, ADE authorized it for me.
ARGH! Now the EPub files are transferring, but the Secure PDF still can't be read because the PC isn't authorized to read the file. wtf?? Last edited by heatherc; 07-30-2009 at 10:33 PM. |

heatherc--
I've read several posts here regarding people who have tried to load both secure ePub and secure PDF files onto their reader. It seems that this is a "no go". For some reason, you can only have one or the other on your reader at a time. Seems strange to me, but like I said several people are reporting the same results. Hope this helps-- dordale |

I've been told by another MR poster that it's a known problem with Overdrive.

My solution is to strip the DRM before loading the ePub onto my 505. Also, I edit all the ePub to use the font(s) that I want.

I also never use ADE to put books on my Reader. I add the books to the Sony Reader and use it, so that the books go into collections. |

I was able to get my New York Public Library Card today. I'm a Canadian citizen and did the online pre-registration first. I'm in NYC today and completed the registration in person using my Alberta driver's license and paid the $100 non-resident fee. I downloaded a mobipocket ebook today with no problem. I'll try ADE when I get home.

ADE won't work with Mobipocket eBooks. The only way Mobipocket eBooks will work is to strip the DRM and convert to LRF or ePub and then put on the Reader.
