Need help, don't understand

There is a book at Fictionwise I bought for my EB1150 that I would like to redownload for my Cybook (I never finished reading it). Is this possible? I've read that whole dang site, but can't figure out if something that in my bookshelf is labeled "Secure OEBFF" can be redownloaded somehow as a Mobipocket .prc.

Any help appreciated!

In my experience, it is only possible if the first one you downloaded was in what they call their "multiformat". These you can download in any of the available formats. Otherwise, I think you're stuck with the original format but I would check with them.

Thanks, Slayda, that's sort of what I figured out by reading everything there. Sigh. Even though they state that most of their stuff is "multiformat", it turns out everything I bought there is in that Secure OEBFF format. Sheesh! Oh, well, I'll just finish reading it on the EB1150 then.

Try instead logging into the http://www.fictionwise.com/ site using your ebookwise.com username and password.

Then look to see if that (or any other) ebook is offered with the 'download ebook' option. If it is, that's a multi-format ebook. This is not available for the 'Secure OEBFF format' as you have already noticed.
