Oy, I got the Adobe Digital Editions Blues
Hi, gang! The subject line says it all. I have vound some books that I simply cannot get in any other format than Adobe Digital Editions, and I have not been able to find an app for my iPhone 4s to read it. I'm totally blind, so enlarging print and all that stuff won't work for me. Any help out there in the Universe will be much appreciated. I really love this list, just subscribed to it not too long ago. What a friendly helpful lot! And, omg, those Sheldon Cooper quotes make me laugh till I cry. Just recently started watching Big Bang Theory as well and have lots of happy catching up to do on re-runs. Anyway, thank for all your help!

Re: Oy, I got the Adobe Digital Editions Blues
Hi, I really like DE for the computer on both mac and windows. It's really too bad they don't have mobile apps. Meanwhile, I think the kobo app will work if you can pick your way through the initial setup. Hope this helps. Kathy Szinnyey joyfulreneg...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, gang! The subject line says it all.

If the files are accessible, iBooks will read them. If they are scanned pages, they will need to be converted to text with OCR. If they are fully digitally rights protected, they cannot be accessed.

Re: Oy, I got the Adobe Digital Editions Blues
Hmmm, Kobo, eh? Interesting idea. Does Kobo read DRM digital editions from sources other than kobo's (guess that was or is Borders books, right?(? I wonder if some developer might want to tackle this issue. If Kobo doesn't work, I may have to see if Aurzweil can grab my books from DEvery and then somehow load it into ITunes to read on my iPhone. Sounds a bit extreme, though to go that route! Lol. But it would be an interesting exercise and learning experience. That's code for banging one's head against a wall trying to figure all this out. Anyhoo, thanks, Eric for this ide.

Re: Oy, I got the Adobe Digital Editions Blues
No, DRM means Digital Rights Management. It is set up such that no reader is able to read any other reader's books. Therefore, you can only open non-DRM files in readers other than the reader the file is protected to. So, you cannot read Amazon Kindle books, for example, because the Kindle app does not allow VO access to its books.
