Does anyone use this?

I don't understand it. I've got this software app so that I can put ePub books on my Sony eReader, but the app doesn't browse any library. Do I go to Chapters and download A.D.E.s there?

What's crazy is that I've done it once - I successfully put a book on my reader - I just don't understand how I did it.

Regarding importing '.epub' files into your Adobe Digital Editions library, this works for me:

  1. note the location of the '.epub' file
  2. launch Adobe Digital Editions
  3. click on icon that shows list of books in the library (upper left-hand corner)
  4. find dropdown box 'LIBRARY' upper left
  5. click dropdown box arrow
  6. click on 'Add item to list' or 'Add item to library'
  7. dialog box opens; go to location of desired '.epub' file
  8. double-click on filename of desired '.epub' file
  9. last action shows filename in list of books in Adobe Digital Editions library
  10. find it in list, click arrow button to left, select 'open item'
  11. text of the epub book appears

Let me know if it works for you.

Can AI do everything a human can do and how close are we to that? 2. Are corporations and governments using the promise of AI to gain more power for themselves? 3. Are AI and transhumans...
Sorry if 'Profile Badge' is not the correct term. I have an MS 365 subscription and I've noticed on my Word documents the small circle with my initials in it is sometimes different in colour document to document (it's the circle at the top right of the doc, that, when you hover over it it tells you you're signed in; if you click on it you get a bit more info). Last night I had four docs with a red circle, one with blue. When I closed the blue and opened it again it was red. Today I have 3...
