Books on PC

I purchased books on iTunes. I "authorized" my PC. I downloaded the books to the PC. When I click on a book, I am asked what program I want to use to open it. Nothing works! Adode Reader doesn't work. I have Adobe Digital Edition, but it is not one of the options I am given. Selecting iTunes only puts me in a "not authorized" loop. Is there any solution??

The majority of ibooks can't be read on PCs, only in the iBooks app on iOS devices (iPads, iPhones, iPod Touches) and Mac computers - only free ibooks and those from publishers who don't include digital rights management (e.g. o'Reilly) can be potentially be read on PCs. A book's requirements are listed on its description page in the store
