It could also depend on the "status" of the book. I use the same ADE installation (and, of course, the same Adobe ID) to dowload borrowed books from the local library and purchased books with Adobe DRM from a number of different shops. Whenever I sideload (USB/WiFi) a purchased book to my Kobo Glo HD (which is authorized with the same Adobe ID), I can read it. However, that never works for me with borrowed books. I always have to transfer them with ADE (this seems to generate a unique hash that's saved to activation.xml on my Kobo).
Almost the same happens with my old Sony PRS-T1. Side-loading of purchased books works but not for borrowed books. Since the PRS-T1 is not recognized by ADE, I have to download the ACSM file with the PRS-T1's web browser before I can read it on the Sony.
Purchased books downloaded to the PRS-T1 can be copied and used on the Kobo, but borrowed books are not authorized.
