Here we go, I will do my best to explain my problem and hope for a solution. I received a sony prs 600. I attached it to my mac book and it was their, no problems in purchasing books from the sony store and transferring them. Here is my problem, I can get e-books for free from my library. So I follow the directions, and install Adobe Digital Editions (ADE), download a book using "overdrive" and voila it is their, I can read it on the mac in ADE, whats the problem? I can't get it into the Sony PRS-600. Adobe tells me to drag and drop it into my device, fine, my device does not show up in ADE at all. Next problem, I am not very computer smart, and not mac smart at all, if you give me advice such as open terminal and edit, it had better be very KISS with very explicit directions.
I have registered my reader and I am registered with Adobe. This is making me nuts, in general I plug in and no problems. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and If I can help any one I will do so.
