iPad No valid license with bluefire

maleia · 10-02-2011, 01:40 PM

Hi, I borrow library books and download onto my pc through adobe digital editions. I then email the download to myself and open the book on my iPad via bluefire reader. I keep getting a no valid license when I try to open the book and there is a circle slash where the book cover should be. I have updated my date and time on my pc, authorized adobe digital editions as well as bluefire reader. What am I doing wrong? Thanks

Have you tried adding the ebooks via iTunes:

Unfortunately, there appears to be availability/expiration data associated with library books that are not contained in the ePub files themselves. Ran into the same problem when I copied library books to my Sony Reader without going through ADE.

Sorry I don't want to pay for books when they are free at a library. Woudn't I have to pay for the iTunes route you suggested?

No, you don't. The only difference between your method and the one on the link is instead of emailing the ebooks to yourself, you copy them via iTunes.

If that still doesn't work, you could install the OverDrive app on your iPad and download ebooks directly to OverDrive. Caveat, OverDrive isn't as customizable compared to other reader apps.

Wow! Thank you so much. I downloaded overdrive media and it is working. Much easier than the process I was using. Thanks again. Maleia
