evdberg,

No idea. Could you tell me exactly in what form that message appears, i.e., is it in a dialog box, in Terminal, or what? Also, does it appear before or after you have been asked where to put the output ADEPT key file?

Or, try running the script from Script Editor. Download and unzip

then open the .scpt file in Script Editor and click on the Run button.

I can tell you that "unable to load Private Key" is not a message the script itself generates. But the script invokes a Unix "shell script" to do the actual work of generating the output file. I got the shell script from someone else and don't really know how it works.

You might also try de-authorizing and then re-authorizing your ADE account, which ought to generate a new ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions/activation.dat file. That file contains the Private Key. My script (via the Unix shell script) accesses that Private Key within that file and puts it in the adeptkey.der file for subsequent use.

If you still need help, feel free to post whatever results you get to this thread, or else send me a private message ...

Cheers,
Eric

EDIT:

Or, try my earlier version:

I know version 1.1 works with 10.5 Leopard and has a problem with 10.6 Snow Leopard. Version 1.1a works with Snow Leopard, but maybe it sometimes fails with Leopard (even though it works on my copy of Leopard).
