Apparently I've made a mistake in thinking that the program would re-install without any problems. Silly me. Not only this, but Adobe Reader 7.0 doesn't look the same either, doesn't have the same logo, and didn't open the PDF's either - when everything worked fine before. How could this be? If it's not obvious, I'm at my wit's end! HELP!!!
Your Digital Editions folder should be in the path my documents/my digital editions. If it is not, recreate a new folder with that name under my documents and try again. When you download from the library, choose "open" not save. This should open the book in ADE - but you must be patient, it takes a few seconds for the loading process to work after ADE opens. You should see a little box in the middle of the ADE screen, and if you have a failure, it will show you where. A fix that works for me if that happens, is to close ADE and reopen it. You should get an alert that it has not completed prior tasks and ask if you want to continue then. When you click yes, everything seems to get fixed automatically.
