Nonetheless, there are very comprehensive instructions at: – follow this link and find the instructions under the comment titled, “How to install ADE-4.xx on ubuntu-14.04 step by step in a console”.įor what it's worth, I'm answering how to install Adobe Digital Editions 2.0.1 (which I needed because of the old-fashioned encryption they used before version 3) for Debian testing ("bookworm" as I am writing this answer). INSTALLING ADE 4.0 - This option also requires Wine and WineTricks but it requires more advanced versions and the process is even more involved. This can be done by opening a terminal and entering this command: $ winetricks -q dotnet35sp1 windowscodecs You need to download and install dotnet35sp1 and windowscodecs before running the ADE installation exe. INSTALLING ADE 3.0 - You'll need Wine and Winetricks for this too (see above for their installation), but the process is a bit more involved. Voila! Note that there are numerous older posts in forums that recommend ADE V1.7 over V2.0 and V3.0. On the second dialog box, take option “adobe_diged”. In the first dialog box take option “Install an app”. INSTALLING ADE 1.7 - Install Wine and WineTricks (you may need to add the Wine ppa – see ). I suspect this is due to recent changes in DRM. Attempting to download these Google Play ebooks produced a 2038 error on ADE 1.7 and an “E_STREAM_ERROR” on ADE 3.0. However, only ADE 4.0 allowed me to download ebooks from Google Play that I required. I found the options below worked for installing ADE on an Ubuntu 14.04LTS system (32-bit).įor all these options, I was able to open some acsm files and download related ebooks. There is useful information on which versions of ADE will work on which versions of Wine at the WineHQ website.

I've been through a process of installing, uninstalling and reinstalling various versions of Adobe Digital Editions (ADE).
