When I try to download a book I am given a message that says I need to
activate my software. I have activated it many times. I have cleared the
cookies and all of the other recommended items, Deleted & redownloaded the
software from both my computer and my Axim X51 with the Windows Mobile 5.0
operating sys.
When in the activation process the error message on the Axim is "This
program is from an unkown publisher. You should install only if you trust
it's publisher. Do you want to continue?" I touch - yes.
I then get a message that says "The program you have installed may not
display properly because it was designed for a previous version of Windows
Mobile software."
I have been working on this for a day now. - and counting.
I am unable to download books because it shows Microsoft Reader as not
activated.

(I sent this reply to your other post, then noticed you'd posted a new topic
so I'll repeat it here.)

Are you trying to download eBooks direct to the Axim? If so, that's your
problem - you need to download to a PC, and then use ActiveSync to transfer
to the Axim. See http://www.microsoft.com/reader/info/tips/transferringppc.mspx
for more details.
