E-Book Store Down? (PLEASE HELP)

Drezin · 10-14-2009, 05:27 PM

Is anyone else not able to access Sony's e-book store? I just got my brand new PRS-600. I try to transfer my library over to it, and I look in my Status area and nothing is happening with the transfer, so I hit the X, and it says something along the lines of "To transfer to this ebook, you must register it, would you like to now?" Again, I'm paraphrasing. I hit yes. It takes me to the store where I try and sign in, and I get a message of "Oops, the ebook store is not working, please check back later." Again, an approximation, not a direct quote.

Is the store down for anyone else, or do I have to do something different to register my ebook? This is so frustrating. I've been waiting for my new 600 all week, and now I can't transfer my library to it. So frustrating!

The eBook store is up for me. I just tried it. I am using eBook Library 3.x.

I got it working now. But for some reason it won't transfer downloads from the uploads section of this site.

I'm not sure I understand. Are you talking about books on here? If so, make sure you are saving them somewhere accessible. Then in the Sony software, click "File," then "import files" and select. The transfer is usually instant.

Yeah, I have all my downloaded books from these forums in a folder on my desktop. I just had to delete them out of the library and re-import them. I don't know why, but it worked.

Odd, but I'm glad it's working now
