Authorizing Adobe Digital Editions

[RnM-iTEVNT]

Just bought new laptop. Downloaded Adobe Digital Editions. Tried to authorize. Received error message that same Adobe ID cannot be used on diff computer.

Not had this issue before since used ADE on both desktop and old laptop. Only have the one eMail address to use as Adobe ID.

How do I authorize

Hi there,

              The one thing with Adobe Digital Edition is, it is for limited devices.
              When you tried to authorize your device with your adobe id of digital edition, it would have not worked.

              Not to worry, you can just through the de-authorize and re-authorize steps to keep your email address working for the device.

              .

              In Adobe Digital Edition (ADE), if you press Ctrl+Shift+D (Windows) or Cmd+Shift+D (Mac) will remove the activation on your computer, and allow you to reactivate with a different ID or the same ID when you launch ADE again. 

              Press "Ctrl+Shift+E", this will bring up the "Device Deactivation" dialog.

              Select your Reader and deactivate it.

              Unplug and replug your Reader

              The Device Authorization dialog should show up, and you can authorize again with your Adobe ID.

               .

               In case if the above steps do not work, you can surely approach Adobe trained agents on adobe.com Monday to Friday on working hours and you will come out with smiling face.

I have been trying to resolve this problem for months and finally have my Kobo back. I was starting to think I would never resolve the issue. Thank you times a million!!!
