Hi Jim I followed your instructions to enable downloading books again
Which worked really well.
However this week the problem has started again and I find I have to do as you suggested to download every book
Any advice welcome

Are you using Chrome on a Mac or a Windows computer? And if I understand your problem, you have to "allow" insecure content download each time you want to download a book? This has not yet happened to me and I downloaded a book yesterday. Perhaps someone else has encountered the problem and will comment.

The solution to the Chrome download problem is to dump Chrome for Firefox.

OK, I'm looking for the lock, a little to the left of my address which I also can't find.

(I have to open a different browser on my Mac every time I download a book).

It's to the left of the URL address at the top of the browser window. Not your address.
