error message when authorizing computer

[lorealr42885450]

I have an adobe account, but when I try to authorize my computer, it won't accept my login and gives me an error message. How do I fix this so that I can see the book that I purchased?

"an error message" doesn't tell us anything.

Also, is this about Adobe Reader, or Digital Editions?

I'm sorry I was under the impression we were chatting. I have attempted multiple times to authorize my computer with my adobe id in order to use the digital editions to read my ebook I purchased today. Every time I get the same activation error message. Is this something you can help me with? If not is their a contact number for someone who can?

The download request has expired. Make sure the time, date, and time zone settings are correct and try again. If the download still fails, obtain a new acsm file.

The screen on the right is the error message that I keep getting.

I have recently been having all kinds of problems with ADE.  I have had ADE 3.0 installed for quite some time with no problems until very recently.  Long story short I ended up deauthorizing ADE, and then couldn't authorize my computer again.  I tried everything, uninstalling, reinstalling, rebooting, nothing worked.  Finallly went into my administration account and ADE showed as authorized, but when I tried to add a library book it told me it wasn't authorized, so I deauthorized in my admin account, and reauthorized and it worked.  Tried to add the book, and it transferred, then plugged in my Kobo Glo & was able to add the book to it as well.  When I change from my admin account to the one I normally use, the book I just added doesn't show, & ADE doesn't show as authorized.  None of it makes sense, but try running from your admin account and it may work for you as well.
