Help Sorting DRM
hi,
I've reviewed a few threads about DRM, Adobe Digital Editions and Sony Store. Pretty confusing stuff.
I am trying to use overdrive.com to check out ebooks from the library.
I'm using a mac 10.5.8, ADE 1.7.1 and the Reader Library 3.1. My understanding is that ADE is useless for transferring books my ereader as the ereader does not show up on a mac.
My computer and my reader are authorized with my adobe ID. I've double checked this by checking under "About Reader Library" it has the correct email.
I've downloaded two type of books (all adobe protected) epubs and pdfs. I can open the epub on my computer in Reader Library and transfer it but can not open it on the ereader (I get a "Restricted Page" error. I can no open the PDF file, I get a message that the Computer is not authorized.
I do use a different email when I log into the actual sony store. Does that email have to match the email that the computer and ereader are authorized with? Is the ereader automatically authrized with the same info as the computer? It seemed like that's what happened but I am now completely confused.
BTW, I can open books that I got from the store. I've only gotten a few and really don't care if I can access them anymore so if anyone can tell me how to reset with out having to call anyone that would be great. Make a new store account?
Thanks!
