i need

i got a prs-505 (slightly used). my problem is that i can't get my device to be authorised by adobe digital editions. my pc (windows xp proffessional) is authorized but the device cannot be.

when trying to transfer bought ebook (from whsmith) to device, error message: no permission to copy here.

when trying to authorize device to pc, error message:e_auth_bad_device_key and e_act_too_many_activations

does this mean that the device was activated to another pc already and needs to be deactivated? how do i fix this problem, please someone explain in simple terms, so much much want to use my reader, have it for 3 months and nothing

does resetting the reader help?

also can i just use adobe to transfer and not sony library, but must have it on the pc?
