D.E. crashes

[maartengoossens]

Digital Editions crashes as soon as I open an ACSM file (to download a book I purchased). Tried it on two different macs, same problem. Anything I could do to be able to read the book I paid for?

I haven't seen this particular issue, but quite often a fix is ....

There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0.  Try replacing ADE2.0 with the older but more reliable v1.7.2.

(You can have them both installed at once if you like.)

Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.

The forum software is sometimes corrupting the link above.  There shouldn't be a blank in 'editio ns.html'.  The following redirects to the same page: http://tinyurl.com/diged172

Thanks! Version 1.7.2 didn't crash.
