How do I open old ebooks on a new computer

[Guest]

I purchased several pdf DRM ebooks in 2005. The computer and the handheld device I used to read them on are no longer available. I've installed Digital Editions on my new computer, activated it using an Adobe ID associated with the same email address I used originally when activating Adobe Reader in 2005, but am unable to open any of my DRM ebooks. In every case, I get the error message:

Adobe DRM Error

System: 7

State: 4

Class: 15

Code: 31

Message: Error on response from server. Your Adobe software could not be activated.

HTTP error on Adobe DRM Activator request.

Adobe DRM Activator error.

Client Code: 31 - HTTP Code: 555

Fault location: 15

I have contacted the ebook vendor (ebooks.com) and they say that they have reset my licenses, but it doesn't seem to have made any difference to the error. I would welcome any suggestions.

You need to ask ebook.com for a redownload - thoses files are no longer readable.

Hello,

Actually there is no problem that you can download it to another computer if you download it again directly from ebooks.com.

maybe it works if you copy all codes of ADE to your new computer.

But why you didnot convert it to PDF, so you can read transfer it anywhere.

if you need help. PM me.

Good Luck
