I should mention that the few purchased adobe-protected ebooks that I have acquired on this new computer has not been a problem. They download and open, and I 'own' the ebooks and run them through calibre, etc.
The problem is with all those earlier ebooks bought when I owned those other computers - the ones that I no longer have.
ADDED: At this point, I don't know what my adobe password is, although I assume that my email address is the same one as what is on Sony.

FIRST: Make sure you have backed-up De-DRMed copies of the books you've bought on this computer. If this installation of ADE gets wiped for any reason, you will no longer be able to open the DRMed versions.
Now, once you've made sure you have DRM-free copies, you might be able to recover access to your old books. That is, if on your old computers your installation of ADE was registered with an Adobe ID. You need to register your current ADE with your old Adobe ID. Only then will it be able to read your old books, and only then will you have a chance of removing the DRM from your old books.
BUT! Doing this will almost certainly lose you access to the books bought on this computer. So make sure you get DRM-free copies before doing anything else.
