"Resume pending tasks" message...unable to proceed

[Frankrez1]

I have successfully downloaded many epub books but now I get message box "Resume pending tasks...one or more tasks were running when ADE was abnormaly terminated.  Do you wish to resume pending tasks?   Choice boxea are "cancel" or "ok".  Clicking on either brings up message.."Error getting license..Server communication problem"   I have tried this with at leas

ADE will not let me open the downloaded epub book.  I have uninstalled ADE, rebooted and reinstalled ADE with the same results.  At a loss as to how to proceed.  Any help?
