kaberettsome time ago sebenikela wrote a guide to getting Adobe Digital Editions playing nice with wine, Calibre and DeDRM, and it is super useful (in that I just got around to playing around with it, n months later, and have Made Use Of It). Sharing for the class, etc.
(I started down this path this morning because Foyles e-mailed me a notification about a sale,cesy gave me book tokens for my birthday, and I got sidetracked while trying to work out how to spend the money...)
I note, with amusement, that I started out convinced I must have an Adobe ID signed up somewhere; entering all the base e-mail addresses I thought might be associated with said account, and getting nowhere; giving up and starting to sign up, with the obvious plus-modified variant address, and... was told I already had an account. The reset password is... now stored in KeePass: apparently I hadn't got that set up yet at the point I signed up with Adobe.

(With me it's usually lost physical objects, but I'm sure it must have happened with some kind of computer account at some point, or if not, it's only a matter of time.)

Date: 2019-12-27 03:52 pm (UTC)I managed to fuck up my wine stuff and had to re-install and I was SO GLAD i'd written it up properly so I wasn't banging my head on the wall going "what did you DO, past-mo???"
