Thanks everyone for saving my sanity

I de/re-authorized ADE, but then ran into the
E_ADEPT_REQUEST_EXPIRED error which had me bamboozled until I re-d/l the acsm file. I had tried to load the previous day's acsm file and that was a no-go. Apparently the acsm files are time-sensitive. After that though, tg it was all downhill. I was able to load the files from ADE library to Calibre and ultimately to my device.
@DNSB Before I installed obok, I did actually add the .epub extension to the raw files, but Calibre did not know what to do with them, so obok in Calibre did the trick. Thanks again all for the help
