i could really use some help so I can get the work from my class done.
I have downloaded the digital editions software from adobe, and now I have downloaded an etext for one of my classes and it wont open through digital editions because it says "error check authorization". even though it says i have successfully authorized my computer under my adobe Id. So what do I do to get it to work?

For this problem, you need to deauthorize and authorize ADE again.
For de-authorization:
Mac:
1. Go-> Go to folder.
Go to folder dialog will appear.
2. Type ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions
drag the activation.dat file to the trash.
ADE will be deauthorized now.
Now Authorize ADE again.
ADE will be deauthorized now.
Now Authorize ADE again. [Help ->Authorize Computer]
Windows:
Choose Start > Run.
In the Open text box, type regedit and then press Enter. The Registry Editor opens.
In the left pane of the Registry Editor, locate the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Adept
Right-click the Adept key and choose Delete.
In the Confirm Key Delete dialog, click OK.
Your authorization will be deleted.
ADE will be deauthorized now.
Now Authorize ADE again. [Help ->Authorize Computer]
