Well I guess that the offer from Microsoft is quite generous, or would be if many people could get them, but I have been trying every week for the last four or five, and have as of yet to have any success.
I have tried all of the help suggestions including deleting files, cookies and disabling my fire wall and reducing my security setting to low, to try and get these.
The help I have had from Microsoft has been nothing other than to re-iterate the help page info- so no joy.
Particularly upset this week as I would have loved to get a copy of a Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson, but its not to be - every single time the same thing - I get in to an endless loop of letting Microsoft check that I have the latest version and then re-activate it. And then an error message when I try to download.
The only part of the help I am not able to carry out is the uninstallation of MS Reader its self as this does not appear as an option to uninstall in ActiveSync. Or from my H2210. The only thing I can remove is the activation!!!
Am I the only person out here that is having this level of frustration in using reader?
I’m at the point of taking a vow of never using reader again unless its with free books, and get my self something else (I’m not sure which as I don’t know which has the largest selection of books supported for PDA. E.g. Adobe has many titles but most can’t be read on PDA - so I understand)
If any one has any 'helpful' suggestions then please let me know
