4. Re: Activation Error
gullimugg Nov 8, 2012 12:21 PM (in response to CarolynFPW)3 people found this helpfulYes there is a way of fixing this. Probably you have just installed ADE 2.0 (and uninstalled ADE 1). If so you had already authorized your computer with Version 1 but Version 2 does not recognize this.
So open ADE. Hit Control-Shift-D. This will ask you if you want to get rid of the authorization on this computer.Answer "Yes". Then try again to authorize this computer and this time it will work.

Derek Leng Nov 8, 2012 7:30 PM (in response to gullimugg)One note here just in case. If you borrowed any book from library, Control-Shift-D will remove your loan record. You may have to re-borrow them from library.

17. Re: Activation Error
canadianbeth Oct 13, 2015 8:20 AM (in response to trepuntisospesi)I still cannot transfer books to m y e-reader. I tried the shift-control-D and did finally get ADE authorized but still get the copy not allowed. I cannot believe the runaround I have been getting since the 1st of this month when I purchased 9 books. Ever since then I cannot load them onto my reader; in fact everything on it disappeared and I now have to re-load dozens of books instead of just the few I bought last week. No one seems to care or know how to help me; not the book publisher, the e-reader company or Adobe. They all just tell me to talk to the other entity. I do not know what to do next.

Navigate to /Users//Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions and drag the activation.dat file to the trash.
If you are using 10.7, see Access hidden library files | Mac OS 10.7 and later.
Open Adobe Digital Editions and reauthorize.

maryl29798705 Sep 19, 2016 1:08 PM (in response to CarolynFPW)I struggled with this for days, tearing my hair out. Found a simple solution. I uninstalled Adobe digital 3.0 from my computer. Then I downloaded Adobe Digital 4.0. Adobe 4.0 let me deauthorize my computer. Then I uninstalled Adobe digital 4.0 and reinstalled Adobe Digital 3.0 I could then authorize my computer.
