HELP ANYONE!!!
I have just purchased a Sony e-reader and have downloaded books into my library, am able to open these books on my computer using ADE, have moved them to my reader and when I try to open the book all I get is a "PROTECTED PAGE" message. What am not doing or doing wrong?

Open ADE and then plug your reader into the USB port. ADE will prompt you to register. Then once that is done, those books should work.

Everyone is right about Adobe Digital Editions. It is one extra step you have to do.

Good to have your new company, Beverly. Hope the advice has fixed your problem. You have a neat device there.
Have you considered downloading the free and excellent Calibre library software? If a title you buy isn't DRM-locked, it will effectively convert from format for you at the touch of a few keys as well as providing a way to build and organise your ebook library. It comes highly recommended by many here at MobileRead, and its developer, Kovid Goyal, is an active member of the forums and more than helpful with expert advice on how to get the most out of his software. Very best wishes. Neil |
