Really dumb question, but..
If I create a new Kobo account using a different name (nickname) and address and email, is there any problem downloading the ePub to my usual Digital Editions which is in my real name and with my usual email address?
I'm not sure about the whole ADE registration/authorisation and whether the download would then be prevented. Many thanks if anyone knows about this. Quote:

By the way, to Kobo's credit, when I explained the problem to them, they were gracious enough to let me do a fresh download of the same book, which I did on my laptop, and no problem. |

You could also gift your book to your main Kobo account, and download the epub from there. |

Thanks Billingsgate and Mrs_Often for the replies. I think gifting the book sounds the best option - just in case ADE doesn't want to play ball.

That's completely irrelevant. You can download the book as many times as you want. They didn't grant you any favors. It's the way it's always been. |

Thus when I tried to download it on my laptop, with ADE registered to my primary e-mail, I couldn't install it on my Reader, since it said "registered to a different account". Once you have downloaded a DRM-protected epub onto a computer with one ADE account, you are prevented from installing that same epub on a computer with a different ADE account. That's why I say be careful. In any case, gifting does seem to be the foolproof option if one is unsure. So, yes, Kobo did me a big favor when I explained the situation, and re-set the original file so I could download it on my laptop. |
