Authorization Issues

Over christmas, I bought myself on a new ebook on my laptop, downloading it onto my reader library. On the laptop I used my own adobe account, seeing as I had one before hand. But, when I got my ereader, it was pre-registared onto my parents account on a different computer. Not seeing the difference between having it on two different accounts.

So, when I tried adding my new books to my sony eread (model PRS-600/RC), it wouldn't let me, claiming the books were authorized to another account.

I am wondering if there is anyway to redownload the book to a different account or transfer the books to the other account because the only way I can read them is online, which defeats the purpose of an ereader

Please respond! Thanks!

-Mickey

Or, is there a way to strip the DRM from the books that I bought on the other computer? Or is there a way to authorize an ereader to multiple accounts? I've read something on both, I just can't seem to find it anymore..

Yes, there is a way to strip the DRM. You may find it helpful to read my post “What to do if you can’t authorise your ereader”. You’ll find it down further.
