Wrong file download, library books can bring them on computer
After having used it with happiness ADE to load books from library on my computer for 2 years, I went and he screwed up. I didn't have a shortcut for ADE on my desktop - the only way I could get was to open Adobe Reader and then via the "help" menu in Adobe Reader, I could go to ADE. Well, I got tired of doing that, so I've played around with things and found a way out of ADE and make a separate icon on my desktop and start menu. I thought everything was fine until the next time that I tried out a library book. All of a sudden when I went to download the book, I got an error message & I noticed that the name of the file where the book was trying to load to a changed from ' adobe digital editions ' something weird, like 'ACS' as well as a few more things. And it does not give me the option to change to something other than a drow in the menu drop-down or by browsing my files or anything like that. I am still able to enter in ADE & use it for books that I have already downloaded, just can not download anything again.
Is it possible for me to change it manually to the correct file name? Is it possible for me to solve this problem without uninstalling and reinstalling ADE? If I need to uninstall, it is possible for anyone to give me very detailed instructions, step by step, as I agree with the basic principles on computers, but not very good with this stuff. I'm on Windows XP. Thanks much for any help you can offer!
Try to reinstall everything, uninstall it and see if that helps. It should not upset your old books and settings.
As you are on XP, I suggest the slightly older v1.7.2. (In fact, the new version has so many bugs I suggest the other oldest for everyone.)
- Download from http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editions/kb/cant-install-digital-editions/_jcr_content/main-pars/procedure_2/proc_par/step_0/step_par/download/file.res/digitaleditions.exe
(see Adobe page http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editions/kb/cant-install-digital-editions.html for more details). - Click on the file downloaded in your browser (or double click as appropriate to the particular browser) to start the installation.
- He's going to ask you a few questions, just take all the easy answers.
With luck, that will make the file association for the .acsm file.
If it isn't, there's a chance that at least passing by the rigmarole you tried above works now.
Good luck...

I have always used Acrobat Reader to download the Overdrive of the library books and transfer them in my corner. I recently got a new laptop and had to download Acrobat Reader DC. Now, I can download is more Overdrive Audiobook. I just got the message that this format is not supported. Any suggestions?
I could be wrong, but I do not think that you used to use Adobe Reader. I think you used to use Adobe Digital Editions software instead - a separate app.

I lost some of the folders in the library. They exist in the Explorer solutions, but somehow got removed from the library. I can bring them back in but I'm afraid it will happen again in LR. Please help me understand what happened and how can I prevent the recurrence. I use Win7.
A few possibilities:
1 > you click with the right button on the files and chose to remove them from Lightroom.
2 > you have created a new catalog, and records that are not part of another catalog.
Each of these scenarios seem like they could be a possibility?

Delete a photo library, now can bring into the iPhoto library
I have Photos of El Capitan put in place to manage multiple libraries on the same MacBook Pro internal hard drive. I was trying to create a new additional library, but seem to have screwed things up.
I created the new photo library, called "BB_Photos", then introduced in photos from iPhoto to Snow Leopard. I note that the same name iPhoto library is on a second internal hard drive. The new library seems to have created OK in El Capitan. However, I was unhappy and trashed the library of Photos of El Capitan, in the hope of re - create. Now I can't pictures released Photos a second time.
In Snow Leopard, the library presented as 'BB_Photos.migratedphotolibrary' and I can line up the pictures of El Capitan. (Even once, note that these are on two separate disks, because I am dual boot.) Photos I am trying to re-import or something, but I trashed this library. Are photos ransacked still hiding somewhere in the Photos?
The iPhoto library is visible from El Capitan pictures inside, but it is grayed out and not available. However, I can still open and view inside Snow Leopard iPhoto library.
How can I cancel my original error and get "BB_Photos" in El Capitan pictures? I can't the library of Snow Leopard to be "not migrated" so Photos can see it again?
Photos does not open "BB_Photos", because the file name extension ".migratedphotolibrary" shows that the library has already migrated to the Photos.
Simply restore the file name extension ".photolibrary". You can do this in the Info Panel.
Select "BB_Photos... migratedphotolibrary" in the Finder, then enter the ⌘I key combination to open the information panel. Change the file name extension in the "Name & Extension" section of the Info Panel.
You may need to click on, then uncheck "hide the Extension."

I'm lost. I can't get my computer to download anything
He opens the dialog box for select open, save or cancel. I hit open and nothing happens. It's like I've ever selected in the first place. I searched my program files for adobe flash and reader and no show. I go to the uninstall/change page and they are there. Help... I am running windows 7 Internet explorer,
Instead of opening of its current location, try to save in a known location on your hard drive as a file downloads that you can select in the Navigation pane or folder Documents or even the office.
Where are saved the downloaded files?
When you download files, Windows usually saves in the downloads folder, which is located under your user name in the users folder on the drive where Windows is installed (for example C:\users\your name\downloads). When you save the file, you can choose to save it in a different folder. By default, some file types are saved in different folders. For example, if you right-click on an image on a Web page and then choose Save picture as on the menu, the image will be saved in the default photos folder. If you don't know where the file has been saved, you can search for it in the start menu.
Why can't I open some files such as PDF documents in Internet Explorer?
Internet Explorer uses Add-ons such as the Adobe Reader software to view some files in Explorer. You may have a previous version of the add-on that should be updated to work with a newer version of Internet Explorer. Visit the Web site for the viewer who does not have to download an update.

I moved the documents in the wrong files can I go out and drop them in the correct file
I did a daily newspaper and accidentally creates a different file for each month but penetrated some day diarys bad monthly files. How can I remove them and move them to the right file
The use of the words 'documents' and 'files', I may need more information. A document (for example you can create with a text editor) is a file. The various documents (files) are stored in folders (icon for them looks like a folder of files in an office filing system).
If you have saved a file (document) in a wrong folder, you can go using Windows Explorer (generally you press start and then select "Documents" in the list on the right above the Start button) and navigate to the folder where the file is. Once you've found the file you can right-click on it and select "Cut" (or "Copy" If you want to be sure), then move them to the folder where you want the file and right click in an empty area in this folder and select "Paste". (If you used the copy rather than the option of cutting option, you will then have to go back and delete the file in its original location).
Another way to do the same thing that can be easier would be to open start > Documents and navigate to the folder where the wrong file and then open a second window by clicking Start > Documents again (a second window will not open unless you have navigated to a different location from the location of the opening in the first window). In the second window, navigate to where you want the file to be. With two windows open just click and drag the file from where it is in the first window to where you want it to be in the second window.
If you really did not on folders, please answer with what application (program), you used to create the diary.
