How to transfer Adobe eBooks to your Sony Reader

Instructions from Adobe's website:

Adobe Digital Editions allows you to transfer items from your library to a SonyŽ Reader. To make the model PRS-505 compatible with Adobe Digital Editions and you have the original PRS-505, you must first download the firmware updater and new version of the Sony eBook Library from the SonyŽ Reader PRS-505 product site and install it on the model PRS-505.

Note: It is important to install Sony eBook Library in addition to the PRS-505 firmware update, as it will install the necessary drivers. After the drivers are installed and your PRS-505 is updated, you can proceed to the step below.

Connect the SonyŽ Reader to your computer and launch Digital Editions. Digital Editions automatically detects the presence of your SonyŽ Reader and offers to authorize it with your Adobe ID. If you have not authorized Digital Editions with your computer, you will need to complete that first (Digital Editions guides you through that process: view the Activation and Authorization topic). Both Digital Editions and the SonyŽ Reader must be authorized to be able to transfer protected content to and from the SonyŽ Reader. Unprotected content can be transferred to and from the device without authorizing either the device or Digital Editions, but Adobe strongly advises authorizing Digital Editions as it gives you content portability for your protected books, whether on Digital Editions or your SonyŽ Reader.

After authorization, the SonyŽ Reader appears as a new bookshelf in your library. You can transfer items to and from the SonyŽ Reader bookshelf just as you do with other bookshelves in your library. You can read (as well as bookmark) books that are on your SonyŽ Reader or your own computer. You can even read books off of your friend's SonyŽ Reader (though you cannot transfer books from his SonyŽ Reader to your computer or vice versa).

Important: Do not disconnect the SonyŽ Reader while transferring library items to or from your computer.

Note: Text annotations in eBooks appear as bookmarks in the SonyŽ Reader.
