Now I just have to figure out how to assure it will not auto-update and put me back in server failure hell. I must say I found the chat people with whom you connect when you click the Help tab in ADE was worthless (actually worse than worthless since the snarkily pointed out it was free if necessary software and therefor not supported) and the Forum articles simply cycled me through useless and sometimes scary (deactivating all my PC's security features) steps without resolving the problem. I don't even know when v4.0 was downloaded or if it was automatic at some point, but by uninstalling v3.0 and v4.5 and selectively installing v4.0 everything worked the way it should. It can then be opened from the external media on any windows device. Click OK and quit Adobe Digital Editions. Press Control+Shift+D to deauthorize Adobe Digital Editions. Help->Authorize Computer Windows: Open Adobe Digital Editions. Open Adobe Digital Editions and reauthorize. just cycled me through these error messages without solving the problem. Calibre has an optional portable build that can be stored on external media along with the users library. Click OK and quit Adobe Digital Editions. The registry editing, DE-authorizing/re-authorizing, shutting down windows firewall/Norton antivirus etc.
I had updated from v3.0 to v4.5.2 to deal with the ASCM files type but got in the same endless loop of failure to authorize or failure to connect to authentication server, both errors (falsely) suggesting I was not connect to the internet. However, what I just did that worked was to delete ALL versions of ADE on my computer and reinstall version 4.0.
None of the prior steps helped me at all. The above did NOT work for me but below is what did.
