This is likely a problem with Adobe Digital Edition authorization. The Digital Rights Management (DRM) feature once employed to protect publications from copyright violations is sometimes perplexing to deal with. The link below follows someone attempting to correct the situation. The advice there in seems to involves deleting authorization and reauthorizing procedures which you have to "get just right" or the process fails. People using Overdrive encounter this problem sometimes. I encourage you to work your way through the discussion to glean the details of what works and what does not. (Note you do have to have an Adobe ID in the course of this.)

I need a step to step guide on how to download a book to my iriver

  • In order to read ePub formatted eBooks on an iRiver Story, you can either SYNC the device with your Borders app or use Adobe Digital Editions. Simply connect your device, select 'Disk Mode' and then click on the 'SYNC' button in the lower-left corner of the Borders app.
  • If you have purchased PDF files, you will need to use Adobe Digital Editions to download and manage these files. Please ensure you have an Adobe ID entered in to Adobe Digital Editions prior to downloading the files fro your Borders eLibrary. You can obtain an Adobe ID here:
https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/membership/index.cfm?nf=1&nl=1&loc=en_us


TO GET YOUR PURCHASED BOOKS FROM YOUR E-LIBRARY INTO ADOBE DIGITAL EDITIONS:
  1. Sign-in to your account on the website using your email address and password. You will see the option at the top of the screen.
  2. Once you have signed-in, please click on 'My E-Library', which is also at the top of the screen.
  3. You will now be able to view your eBook library. On the right of each title in your library, below 'Open eBook' you will see a link 'Download Now (For Adobe Digital Editions users)'. Click on the 'Download Now' text for each book to download it, which will not cost you any further money.
  4. The downloaded file may ask you if you wish to open it with Adobe Digital Editions or save it to your file system.
  5. Please click on 'OPEN'.
  6. The eBook should now appear in your library in the program.

If you experience any problems downloading the eBook in to Adobe Digital Editions, you may need to save the file and then right-click on it and select 'Open With' and then manually select Adobe Digital Editions on the first occasion.

When you connect your iRiver device to the computer, Adobe Digital Editions will ask if you wish to authorise the device. This process is assigning your Adobe ID to the iRiver Story, which will allow you to transfer across your eBooks and then open them on the iRiver Story. Please click on 'authorise device' and then drag-and-drop your eBooks to the device by holding down the left mouse button and releasing it when on the iRiver Story, which will appear as the last item on the list in the left column as 'STORY'.

Loading books into adobe digital editions

There are a few different ways you can add books to your Library with the Adobe Digital Editions program. Once the program loads left click on the down arrow beside the "LIBRARY" menu. In the drop down menu you will find an "Add Item to Library" choice. You would then surf to the directory that holds the books you want to add. You can also open a Widow to the same directory and drag and drop the books from your window to the programs window. You can also go to the numerous websites that support the program (the books must have the "epub" extension) and purchase or download books from those websites. Double clicking any of those files will automatically load the Adobe Digital Editions program as the program sets that default action when you install it on your computer. Once the book is added to your library you will see the cover of the book in your LIBRARY view. Double clicking any of the covers will then load the book and the program will switch to the READING mode for you. In the upper left corner of the program you will see and icon that looks like 3 bookends (LIBRARY mode), and another one that look like an open book (READING mode). This is how you will switch between either adding books or reading the books you have added.

If you have ebooks in other formats there are programs which allow you to change the format of the book to the epub format you need for the Adobe program. Calibre, which you can find at http://calibre-ebook.com/
is an excellent free program which will allow you to reformat books if necessary.
