Starting last night, I could no longer use the search function. Has this happened to anyone else? It occurs at both Brooklyn Public Library and Philadelphia Free Library. Of course, Overdrive help is no help. I received a canned answer to clear my history and cookies. Been there, done that, no change.
BPL does seemed messed up to me. I typed in "stephen king" and click search, and it says it searched for "stephen". I than type in "stephen king" and select "stephen king" from the drop down/suggestions, and again it says it searched for "stephen". I than click search ("stephen king" is in the text box), and the search looks correct.

Boston Public Library is working fine. I can easily search for Stephen King.

BPL = Boston Public Library
BPL does not stand for any other library.

I am paying attention. I saw that you used BPL incorrectly. The URL for Boston Public Library is bpl.org hence why if you use BPL for any other library, you have it wrong. Now it's your turn to pay attention.

Out of curiosity I googled "BPL" and "library" and found numerous libraries which either have "BPL" somewhere in their URL or refer to themselves as "BPL" somewhere on their website. The following are from just the first few pages of Google search results - I'm sure there must be many more.

Same here. I didn't realize I had 2.0.6 until a library download failed. Fortunately everything worked after reverting to 2.0.1 which I was still able to obtain from Adobe.

Thanks for everyone's help.
i just got that exact issue 1.72 bugged out. 2.067532 bugs out. those are the only 2 I had to hand. completey wiping the ADE contents folder in mY docs did not help.
so I am at the E STREAM error stage.
from where do I grab an old but working version please. I read bad things about v3, v4 so I want to stay wtih a v2 release if possible
update. the 2.0.1 here
http://www.adobe.com/support/digital...downloads.html
worked, but how long until that breaks also
do we yet know why the others broke but this one did not ?

Out of all those supposed BPL libraries, Boston Public Library was first so it gets the BPL moniker. The rest don't count when using the name BPL.

so are you going to make it your personal mission to notify all those other libraries that they cannot refer to themselves as BPL?
