Calibre isn't much help if you have DRM on your files. You might as well just use Finder. I would recommend finding mobidedrm and buying mobipocket format instead.

But yes, now that you have your Sony authorized you can run ADE on the Mac and buy/download from the Mac. However, ADE will not recognize your reader so you will still need to use Finder to copy your purchased ebooks to your Sony.

No, shouldn't be a problem.
