I have downloaded both epub and pdf books from the public library, altho not necessarily at the same time, without any problem. Today i downloaded a pdf library book and it will not open on the pp. I have it in Digital Editions on both the internal memory and the SD card, and it just flashes the hourglass symbol and then the pdf symbol. 2 other pdf books that i got free from the Sony library site quite a while ago will also not open and they have before. They all open both on the computer itself, and when I look at the contents of the pp and its SD card on the computer, it goes over to ADE and the books open. I don't have any other epub library books on the pp.
The only 2 different things that I notice from previous times is that there is a Sony Reader folder on the SD card now, I think it appeared when I downloaded the Sony software in order to convert one free Sony book that I got before their conversion to epub.(OR when I downloaded the PP November firmware. That part doesn't make sense though.) I downloaded that book before I decided against buying a sony and went with the PP. However, even if the SD card is out of the PP, that particular book, converted to epub is on the PP. No sony folder shows up on the internal memory of the PP. So did I totally contaminate my PP with Sony's inabiity to read ADE pdf and epub at the same time?
The other thing that happened as I was downloading and transferring the library book, is that Adobe Reader 9 popped up and wanted to update to 9 and I let it, so it downloaded while the PP was connected. Did I just burn out some ability to read DRM'd pdf's?
Everything opens up just fine on my computer, and also when the PP is connected to the computer, just not on the PP by itself.
Help!! So frustrated. Thanks
