Hi. I am trying to listen to an Overdrive protected audio file from a

local public library. 

When I try opening the ODM file in Overdrive Media Console, for

delivery of the full media file, I get the error "Unable to aquire a license to play the selected title. The requested license is either invalid or already aquired"

 I get an other error when I try to

get the "Security Upgrade" for WMP11. 

I am using Vista 64 bit on a HP a67oof, WMP11, IE8

Overdrive media console is  16bit software so I dont know if thats why I cant get it work??? 

Can you help:)

Bri-bee, I recommend you visit the following page to contact OverDrive Media Console's support, this is a 3rd party product and we are unfamiliar with its requirements to provide support:

One thing you can check is that Windows Firewall:

    It sounds like your not using the Explorer brand browser. Just run the upgrade in Explorer, and it will probably work. Then, when you're finished with it, go back to using whatever browser you enjoy. If you don't have Explorer, you can download it for free on Yahoo's site, or, if you prefer, you can download it for free at microsoft.com

    When I press security upgrade, I receive "parameter incorrect" message.

    Henry: please make sure that you run the upgrade in Internet Explorer as administrator (right-click the IE icon - Run as administrator). Does that work?
