    I read books on my iphone and very occasionally on my MacBook. IrCOm logged in with Apple ID on both. Recently bought a book in the iphone and wanted
    to read it on the Mac. Opened Books on the Mac and could see the book (and others) but when I tried to open was informed my computer not authorized.

    Went to account settings which showed me as logged in. Nevertheless clicked authorize this computer in usual way.

    Did that (several times including rebooting the Mac) but it still tells me Mac not authorised.

    Help please? What am I doing wrong?

    Slight detour... Having left my Kobo somewhere, I'm stuck reading on my iPhne 12 Mini (not ideal, but...) One thing I've noticed is that usually when I reopen the app to continue reading, I get the spinny thing in the middle of an unresponsive screen, and it takes a few seconds for the app to become active. Have you noticed this?
