![]() I have a Mac with Firefox, and everything is up to date. I just click on whatever I want, whether one book, or many, and click "add". My computer opens a file with my "epubs" listed on the desktop. For "epub" files, I go into ADE and click on the little arrow by Library, and click on "Add item". The ascm file icon must be deleted each time, or you can click on "replace" when the box pops up. They are stored on the computer just as "epub" files are. I click on "save".įor "ascm" files, I just right click on "open" (from the desktop) and it automatically goes into ADE. A box pops up allowing me to write in the name (rather than a number) and where I want it to go (desktop). I never left click on "download", but right click instead, then click on "save link as". had to show me how to download their books. Barnes and Noble is poor in their instructions and left out much needed information, for the NOOK. I think I could have built bookshelves in the same amount of time. This was supposed to make my life easier. ![]() MY QUESTION NOW IS: Do I really have to put each one (other than B&N) back into ADE, and then again, individually, into my Nook? I simply can't imagine doing that. I wonder how much time these people would spend to fool around knowing that it probably won't work. Now my Nook is saying that I don't have permission to open many books. They didn't give any reasons for the missing books or for why ADE will no longer allow books to go into my Nook. Needless to say, I have already downloaded them onto ADE several times and they still disappear, but who wants to do that !?ĪDE's response is to disable ADE and reinstall it. I have school books, commentaries, reference books, and lots of childrens books (I homeschool). Now, I have about 600 ebooks, some from Barnes and Noble, some from a Christian book store, which has really helped me! and some from Project Gutenberg, etc. After several weeks of trying to get some answers from ADE, (they didn't know anything, or the site was down, or they just tossed me off into this never ending spiral to nothing), I finally got a somewhat coherant response to this problem. I feel for you! I'm having the same problem. It contains your ebooks, such as they are. If you go ahead and reinstall ADE, be sure to backup the 'My DigitalĮditions' folder.

Sometimes we assume that we know how things work - and it turns outĭifferently. Anybody already done this and can save me the time? Should I be correct, I will have to open ADE every time the nook is anywhere near the computer just to keep it happy. ![]() ![]() I shall do some testing to confirm my theory. I am beginning to suspect that if I connect the nook and ADE isn't opened it gets all upset and takes its toys and goes home (de-authorizes the nook, should such a word exist). I frequently have the nook connected via wifi or the USB. It appears to have lost the link between its 'key' and the actual book location. ADE does not 'have' the book it just lists the title and tells me it is missing. If I do a hardware reset on the nook, I will lose books because ADE does not know where they are. Therefore, I only open it when I really need to - like to re-authorize the nook or download a book from BookDirectory. ADE is not my library manager of choice it was forced upon me by BookDepository. It's the ADE list that is always wrong and it's ADE that seems to go loopy. ADE has duplicate copies of books and tells me they are missing. Um - the nook isn't losing it's brains ADE is. ![]()
