  • Close the file view of your device

2. What happens if you attempt to read an E-Pub book on multiple devices?

If you attempt to read an e-pub book on multiple devices you will receive this message: "E_LIC_ALREADY_FULFILLED_BY_ANOTHER_USER." Users get this error if they are attempting to read their ePub book on multiple devices. If each device has a different ID, you will need to unauthorize and authorize them so they all match. It is easiest to unauthorize Adobe Digital Editions on your computer. To do this:

• Press and hold Control-Shift-D


• Select Erase Authorization
  
  
  
  • Note that if you activate Adobe Digital Editions with an Adobe ID which has already been used to activate Adobe Digital Editions on another computer, any DRM-protected Adobe eBooks downloaded before activating with the Adobe ID will no longer work.
  
  
  • If the subsequent download of an Adobe eBook is attempted on a computer that has been activated using a different Adobe ID, DRM restrictions will make the title incompatible with the second computer.
  
  
  
  

Please email the library if you have any other questions.

3. What does "E_ADEPT_REQUEST_EXPIRED" mean?

This issue deals with date and time. Make sure that the machine’s system time, date, and time zone match the time / date / zone when you purchased the PDF or ePUB. Please email the library if you have any other questions.
