I also got my new Cybook ORIZON a few days ago.
The device is recognized by my Adobe Digital Edition - SW running on my mac.
-> but device can`t be activated with Adobe Digital Editions.
Orizon ist detected and displayed in ADE as "Cybook Orizon" - Aktivation process seems to work - but after I disconnect the Orizon: in the messagebox
Settings>About>Adobe ID: Not Activated !!!
DRM-ebubs can`t be displayed.

The suggested way as described in manual chapter 12.
via the Bookstore Link also fails:
"Connection timed out" error message -NO wifi connection to internet at all (google etc. )

I sent about 5 emails to support@bookeen.com and to contact@bookeen.com and also filled in the support-form twice - BUT got NO response at all.
So ... the device is nice ... but without any (of my) content - not usable in this state.
Bookeen support is anoying ....

Today is day off in france. So you won't get any responce from bookeen today.

As for activation, I have to say I de-DRM my books to avoid the kind of mess you are going though.
Are you sure the device is properly disconected ?
How are you running ade ? there's a mac version ?
what do you mean by "SW" ?

EBreader: Sounds like you should check your wifi AP, have you tried another wifi? That worked out of the box for me, the browser is simplistic but better than I expected. I haven't tried the ADE stuff yet though, for the reasons stated earlier (I have no proprietary OS available).

Oh, right, wanting to read the books you payed for a such a crime. It's certainly moral.

That's support@bookeen.com

Do you have an other computer you might try to autanticate the orizon with ?

I would wait until tomorow evening, and send another mail.

I only wish the Pandigital reader had text as dark as the Orizen; that would give you most of the features for a fair bit less money .

jwalk: you posted - wifi worked aut of the box. What are your settings. I work on "personal WPA2" security-level. Maybe that is not supported by Boo Reader.

Maybe an auto responce with "sorry, e-mail no longer in use, please use the website form" would be usefull there.

I think they didn't do this due to the spam that generate a lot of traffic, and you never want to answer to spam

Then you can just use an anti spam to reply only to the relevant mail

But now I understand why companies are using form rather than e-mail.

Solution for ORIZON - ADE authentication error

I want to inform the community about the very helpful support of the Bookeen Team!
I got an email-reply - after one day only.
Solution for my ADE authentication-problem:
We invite you to connect the device to your computer and then delete the «
.adobe-digital-editions » folder. You can then begin again the procedure to
activate the device with ADE and it should be working.

“.adobe-digital-editions” is a hidden folder. If you cannot see it, please
follow these steps:
- Click on "tools"
- Select "folders options"
- Click on "display"
- Find "hidden files and folders" and select the option that allows these
folders to be seen.
- All the folders will then appear

Thanks again to Bookeen Support Team.
