I found myself unable to authorise my ereader - could authorise my desktop but not it. (And, thus, read my DRM protected book on my computer but not my ereader). Wouldn't authorise my ebook reader automatically etc, etc - despite all the posts assuring me it would etc, etc. Chatted to support - no solution from them about it. One of them suggested I log a tech report.
So, I contacted Tech help and logged a report. The reply came back that my ereader is not supported by ADE! So, technically, I can't authorise ADE on my ebook reader and, thus, read the books I've purchased legally using their platform!
I have found a way, however, to unlock the DRM (just look on the net!) and I can now read my purchased book on my ereader. This method, of course, allows piracy to occur but, to be clear, I am not advocating that. However, the method has allowed me to access my book.
The instructions aren't always clear on the web - but I did find a thread on a site that was pretty simple to follow (in the end!). Email me at adedrmsolution@gmail.com and I'm happy to share it with you. I would rather share the information that way becuase, as I said, I'm not advocating piracy. But I am happy to use the method if it allows me to open my legally purchased books - at least till the day that Adobe supports my ebook reader!

Hi everyone
As I say in this post, if you need help unlocking DRM (for legal purposes) just email me. I've helped a lot of people - but the requests have slowed down, and I don't check that account as often as I used to - but I will continue to do so from time to time.
In the mean time, I thought I'd just cut and paste here what I tell people when they email me. (Just in case I don't check that account for quite a while!!
The following instructions may look complicated - but they're not. Just take a deep breath, work though things step by step, and considerable joy will be yours (I still remember that moment when it worked, and I could read my ebooks.) As far as I'm concerned Digital Editions is a great product - there are just a few little issues involved!!
All the best.
Here are the instructions (which you'll find in many places on the web - my version just makes it a bit easier for you!!)
I found the following two postings on (the one) web-site. You can probably unlock your ebook by using the instructions in either of them. However, I’ve put my own (I hope) absolutely fool-proof guide after them!
The first posting said:
Posting to help anyone out there:
The second posting said:
First I came in here to thank you guys for helping me do this.
Second, I found the instructions a little bit hard to follow. So I wanna make it easier for the next person. It was also hard enough to find this method. I've been searching for hours and looking for a simple program to do this.
I will rewrite the steps and even include all the files I used. I'm on windows 7, 64 bit. However the file versions I used were 32 bit versions because I saw someone in this thread say to use those instead.
Code:

My version is (just to repeat: follow these instructions. The previous two postings are, essentially, the same and have useful reference points in them – but I’m hoping the following version is really clear!}
All the best.
