Hello everyone,

I have just activated my microsoft reader (on both my
laptop and my pocket pc) and was getting ready to try my
pocket pc. I have purchased 2 e-books and downloaded them
into my laptop. I transfer them into my pocket pc and
they showed up on the LIBRARY menu. But when I click on
them it says:

Microsoft Reader is no longer able to access the book

I am not sure what this means. If anybody could help I
would appreciate it!

I have the same problem. I'm anxious to find an answer.
I've been reading e-books on MS Reader for years now and
love it. When I finished my last one, I got this same
message on the other 3 books I had downloaded. I tried
deleting them and downloading again. I tried buying a new
ebook. I've checked my activations and also that I have
the latest versions. I've deleted my cookies. I've even
done a hard reset and repeated all the processes. I NEED
my e-books!!! I don't want to go back to paper books
again.

I got the "Microsoft Reader is no longer able to access the book" message
after upgrading to Reader version 2.2.2. But when checking I was actually
running the version in the ROM (2.2.1). This happened because for some
reason the shortcut was not updated during install.
Verify that you are actually running the newest version by checking settings
page 3 in the reader program, or try to tap on the newest installed reader
program from explorer. (First make sure that the program is not running)

I upgraded to 2003 and had the same problem. I fixed mine by going to
http://www.microsoft.com/reader/downloads/ppc.asp

and downloading the new reader. After it is all done be sure to soft
reset your PDA.

Good luck.

I had the same problem, and after looking all over the
place, I found the solutions in Microsoft Reader's FAQ's.
I'm not enough of a computer person to explain, so you'd
best visit that site and look for the question regarding
your specific error message. I did exactly what it said,
and it's been working for me ever since.

Good luck!
