Oy, I got the Adobe Digital Editions Blues

2013-03-28 Thread Kathy Szinnyey
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!

Peace,
Kathy

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.

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

2013-03-28 Thread kathy szinnyey
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.

Peace,
kathy

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.
