ADE does not recognize NookColor

I have ADE installed on my computer and I can download ebooks to it.  I want to transfer the ebook to my Nookcolor but ADE does not "see" it.  What do I need to do to get ADE to "see" my Nookcolor?  Thanks.

I spent HOURS trying to figure this out and I finally fixed it.  It takes multiple steps.
1.  First you need to delete the adobe.digital.editions file on your Nookcolor (because it loaded but did not register you need to do it again) See steps below
Connect your NookColor (NC) to your computer and then try to wake up your Nookcolor.  It should tell you it is now connected by USB and you can transfer files.
Once you see this, go to My Computer and choose whatever drive your NC is connected to (you will need tochoose Open Folder to View the files in Windows Explorer -  if it asks you that question)
Open the NC files in windows explorer
You will see a file folder named .adobe-digital-editions
Delete it (we will reinstall it later).  I promise it will not hurt your NC
2.  Make Internet Explorer your default browser (don't know why but found this to be part of problem in my research) and close any other browser
3.  Make sure Digital Editions is closed on your PC
4.  Turn off your firewall (DON'T forget to turn back on when we are done!)
Go to Start menu to Control Panel and choose Windows Firewall
Turn off firewall
4. With your NC still connected to PC, Open Digital Editions on your PC
It should now ask you if you want to authorize a device (your NC) say YES!
Now when you are in library view of Digital Editions you should see MEDIA listed at the bottom - that is your NookColor
To add books in Digital Editions to your NookColor you should just click and drag the title of the book to the word MEDIA
Your books will now be on your NC and SHOULD be authorized (eliminating the credit card questions)
5. Eject your NC from your PC (right click on the drive it is located on and choose Eject)
6. Turn your Firewall back on (Start, Control Panel, Windows Firewall, On)
7.  Wake up your NookColor (not connected to PC anymore) and check to see if you can open your books
Click on Library and choose My Files and then Digital Editions
You SHOULD see the books you copied from your PC
Open Digital editions folder
Open a book AND IT SHOULD WORK!
Hopefully, this will help you.  If not, try deleting the old books you had tried to download before and start fresh.  You can delete them while your NC is connected to your PC and you are viewing the files in Windows Explorer - that is the only way to delete books from your NC.  I am a computer software trainer so I tried to make these instructions as user friendly as possible.  Good luck!!

  • ADE Does Not Recognize Import From Nook

    I have loaded some books directly from B&N to my nook. The file format that B&N uses is the ISBN number, dot epub. For example 97803454.epub. However, when I connect my Nook to my computer when ADE is open, I am not able to drag and drop the file to ADE; I get an error message that the document is licensed to another user. I can place the file in the ADE folder through Windows Explorer and then add the item to the library, and the item appears but under status, "errors" appears and I am not able to open the file. All I see in the library is the ISBN number.
    Is there a way to make this file recognizable in ADE.
    Thanks in advance for any assistance.

    ADE does not ( yet ) support books purchased from B&N.

  • ADE does not recognize Icarus t701 tablet

    In the Icarus manufacturer specification there is ADE recognize the t701 tablet device, but it does not. The tablet with Android OS is connected to the PC via USB, but ADE can not recognize it. It is sad, because I can't install ADE directly to the tablet because the Android does not support flash. What can I do to read DRM ePub files on my tablet?

    Thank You for your answer! In the meantime the manufacturer has changed the specification of the device. The t701 tablet compatibility with ADE is no longer readable, but there is a solution of my problem:
    "To read DRM protected content you might need specific applications, depending on the source of the book. One possible solution is to download the TXTR application from the Android market. You will need to register with them, but it will enable you to access DRM protected content on your tablet and other devices."
    I've tried it, and it's really works, the TXTR software can authorize the tablet device with my Adobe account!
    Anyway Adobe plans the ADE compatibility with the Icarus t701?

  • ADE Does Not Recognize My NOOK Tablet

    I have searched the forum for answers, but so far no one seems to have the same problem I am experiencing. I have been using a Win 7 PC to download EPUB books from my local library for nearly two years with no problems. Seemingly overnight ADE no longer recognizes my NOOK. I have tried rebooting the PC, uninstalling/reinstalling both ADE 1.7.2 and 2.0 (I am now back to 1.7.2 after seeing other posts re: 2.0). I have unauthorized and reauthorized ADE, and it still does not recognize my NOOK when it is plugged in. The cord/connection seem to be fine; I can see the NOOK in Explorer, but not with ADE. I have also deleted the ".adobe-digital-editions" and "digital editions" folders on the root of the NOOK's drive to initiate the download process. No luck so far; does anyone have any ideas on next steps? Thank you

    With Sony ereaders you must have some extra Sony software.
    If you don't, you get exactly what you see; the device is seen in Explorer but not in ADE.
    I don't know if there is anything similar with the Nook, but I mention it just in case.
    In the case of the Sony, the extra software is installed with Sony Reader software;
    but you don't have to run the Sony Reader for the extra software to have its effect on ADE.
    If for some odd reason you can't get the Nook recognized,
    you should still be able to borrow books as usual and download the file using ADE,
    and then transfer the .epub file to the Nook using Explorer.
    As long as the Nook is still authorized with your ID, you will be able to read the books on the Nook.
    A bit more of a faff than direct ADE transfer, but not too inconvenient.

  • Was able to move books to old Nook but ADE does not recognize the newGalaxy Tab4 nook that I got

    was able to move books from ADE to my old Nook, but can not get the program to recognize my new Galaxy Tab4 nook.
    If copy and paste, am unable to open......does not accept my Adobe ID

    ADE doesn't recognize devices connected in MTP mode, the new Galaxy Tab4 might be connected in MTP mode.

  • ADE does not recognize my device

    I installed Adobe Digital Editions on my PC on the instructions of my library when I wanted to borrow an ebook, and authorized it with my Adobe ID.  Becuase I want to read the book on my tablet, I then connected my tablet (a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, model GT-P5110) and launched ADE as the instructions for transferring an ebook to ereader specify (see Transfer eBook to eReader | Adobe Digital Editions) but ADE is not recognizing my device, even though the computer itself is recognizing it.  I've tried several times with the same results each time and I am getting pretty sick of having my time wasted.  Help please!

    FYI, I have ADE version 4 and can't get my ADE to recognize my Nook reader.  My mother, OTOH, has ADE version 3 on her computer, and just now her ADE did recognize her Nook.  The library book she downloaded this evening has now been transferred to her Nook.
    My conclusion:  if your troublesome ADE is version 4, perhaps you could try uninstalling that version, put on version 3, and see if that version will recognize your device.

  • ADE does not recognize my Samsung Galaxy Tab Samsung SM-T310

    I'm using Windows Vista, I updated ADE today, but when I run it, there is no device. Calibre sees my device just fine, and so does Windows Explorer.
    Because of this, I cannot view or read the books I borrow from the public library.  (I don't use ADE to read, I don't read on the laptop (really really not an option for visual comfort reasons)). I just want to read the library books on my tab, so if there is a work around, would love to know, as I suspect my device is not supported, yes I checked the blog, and there is a generic listing on the 'supported devices' page,  Samsung Electronics co. LTD eBook Reader on Galaxy Tab Android
    Thanks for reading,
    Ingrid

  • Digital Editions does not recognize and authorize sony PRS-505

    The problem is that it my first purchase a DRMed ebook at dieselbooks and I dowloaded digital editions and authorized it with no problems,
    i downloaded the ebook and i was able to read it on digital editions. But the problem is that when i plug in the sony reader digital editions does not recognize it, so i cant authorize it and im unable to read the ebook on sony reader prs 505.
    Since the ebook is DRMed i cant use another program to do it, i tried acrobat 8 with no solution.
    Do you guys have an idea how to solve this problem?

    Make sure you have installed and are running the latest Sony EBL software, the installation contains the needed drivers for ADE to talk to the 505. Note: if you are running on a Mac, ADE will not be able to talk to the 505 and you will have to use the Sony EBL 3.x instead.

  • Help! ADE does not recognise my Elexon 621 eb

    Can anyone help me please.  I bought an Elexon 621eb, uploaded ADE and managed to put a couple of books on to it.  The next time I plugged it in ADE did not recognise it - turned out to be a problem with the e book.  I have a new one now but ADE does not recognise it when I plug it in.  How do I get it to recognise my new EB without loosing the books I've bought?  Thanks

    Sharon, here are some generic things you can do.
    First, make sure that the software on your new ebook reader is up to the
    latest level.  You'll have to follow the manufacturer's instructions to do
    this.
    Next, make sure that you've authorized or activated the ereader with the
    manufacturer, so it's live and loaded - so to speak.
    Then, plug it into our computer and let the computer recognize it as a USB
    device.  When the computer reports that your new hardware is ready to use,
    start ADE.  ADE 'should' find the device and note that it has in the left
    hand pane of the Library screen.  When it does this, then you can drag and
    drop the ebooks from ADE onto the ereader.
    Finally, when the downloads appear to be complete. close ADE.  Then, use
    your computer software to 'eject' the ereader so that the computer drops it
    from its list of active USB devices.  How you do this depends on the
    software you have on your PC.
    After this is done, look at the ereader screen and make sure it is updating
    itself with the new content.  Once that's completed, you 'should' be able to
    read the books on your ereader.
    Hope this helps!

  • "Find my iPhone does not recognize New iPhone 5

    I use my AppleID to "Find my iPhone" successfully on iPhone 4, iPhone4S, iPad, iMac. All show up. New iPhone5 iOS 6.0.2 uses same AppleID in the General iCloud settings, Contacts,email,photostream,safari bookmarks,reminders,notes, are all synced fine. I can even see how much storage is available in my iCloud account on the new iPhone5.  The Problem is that "Find my iPhone" does not recognize the new iPhone 5. Yes location services is turned on. The iPhone5 can find its location in the map app, can find all other devices in "Find my iPhone" just not itself in "Find my iPhone" I tried a hard reset.
    ANY IDEAS?

    How about when the passcode is correct but not recognized?
    I was prompted to enter a password to unlock the device when I downloaded IOS 7 several months ago.
    Entered the password every single day for months, never a problem.
    Yesterday I attempted to download the most recent IOS version and I was asked for a passcode before I could do that (my phone was unlocked). Online I found out the passcode is the unlocking password. It did not work and I was unable to use the phone for several minutes after 5 attempts. I just stored the phone and when home I charged it overnight.
    This morning I unlocked the phone as usual  and used it without a problem for emails, phone calls. etc.. Now, after not having used it for a while, I am asked for the passcode to unlock it as usual, and although I am sure I entered the right code, it is not recognized. I am unable to unlock my phone, although I have done it for months.
    This is not a case of forgotten passcode! And I see it has happened to many others that use 4s and 5s iphones.
    i could attempt the iTune connection fix, but it troubles me that all solutions are presented for forgotten pascodes, and in many cases actually the passcodes are not recognized. Which means, it will keep happening unless Apple offers a solution.

    My iPad does not recognize my printer (HP officejet 5510 All-in-One). What can I do?

    The Photosmart 5510 is AirPrint capable.  You can find that information linked below.  There may be something in the network that is preventing communication.  To use AirPrint your router needs to support Bonjour services.  Run the download below.  It will let you test Bonjour services from your Windows PC.  If this app can't see the printer either, then the router's Bonjour services are off, or it does not support Bonjour.  Let me know what the app finds.  If it can't find the printer, let me know what brand and model router you have, and I'll see if it has Bonjour services at all.
    Bonjour Print Services for Windows v2.0.2
