Thanks for the reply! I do see that they work on the PC just fine but they didn't on the reader. I was having a lot of problems with this but I think I got it to work fine now. The next test will be when I get another library ePub. +++ fingers crossed but I need to finish my PDF library book first though before I play with that silliness again. LOL
None of my PDF files would open on my reader. So I deleted the library ePub from the reader and reloaded my non-library PDF's to the reader (knitting & crochet patterns) but they wouldn't transfer to the reader at all until I redownloaded them to the PC. I thought that was really weird! I disconnected the reader from the PC and checked on the reader and they opened just fine. Yay! I figured just go one step at a time.
Now I transfered the library PDF book from my PC to the reader but it still wouldn't open.
I had to delete it from the PC library and re-download it from the public library and only then was I able to open the library PDF file on my reader. Whew! So far so good but as I say, the test will be the next ePub library book I borrow.
I will not be making that mistake or trial again. I hope my experience was able to help prevent someone from going through it or solving their own current ePub/PDF conflict because MAN is that frustrating!
I'm really enjoying using the public library for ebooks and was so disappointed when this happened. It was a big selling feature for me and the Sony reader. There are books I want to read but I don't want to buy and if I borrow it and find I love it, I'll buy it.
