ADE does not see my Nook

installed ADE on Mac and connected Nook; Nook visible in Finder but not in ADE window.  Please help.

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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • ?my ADE is not recognizing the Nook HD+.

    I have authorized my HD+ with my email and number.  I attached the HD+ to my computer.  Then I opened ADE.  It still is not recognizing my nook.  What am I missing.

    ADE does not recognize tablets.
    You can transfer files downloaded to ADE using file manager (windows expolorer, mac finder) to mounted drive, or by something like Dropbox.
    As long as ADE and the tablet app are registered to the same user, you should be able to read the book on the tablet.
    You may need top open it explicitly, it may not automatically turn up in the app's library.

  • HT201269 itunes cannot see my iphone backup.  I have a backup of the backup on an external HD, but even tech support cannot figure this one out.  I copy and paste backups into the correct folder but itunes still does not see it.  All I need are my contact

    Sorry for short novel I am writing.  I just wanted to cover as much backround as possible.
    So, here it goes.  I backed up my iphone 4 after renting a movie.  The movie only played the starting credits before I was called on for daddy duty.  A few days later the movie would not play, so I restored my phone from my backup.  The movie would still would not play so itunes support refunded my purchase and ended my viewing privileges for that rental after verifying that I had not viewed the movie.  I then had a problem with my contacts showing up twice in the contacts list after the restore.  So I attempted another restore.  All was well at this point.  I then started having trouble with my pc and decided to copy the internal drive to an external source.  A week later I had a system failure and did a factory restore on my computer.  I re-installed itunes and tried to copy and paste the old backup into the new itunes.  Now itunes just flat out does not see the backup file (I failed to mention that I did a factory reset on the iphone after the last backup, hopping to start fresh).  Tech support had me uninstall and re-install itunes and then copy and paste the old backup into the newly installed itunes with no luck.  The files are all there, but itunes just doesn't see them (itunes says the device has not been backed up to the cloud or to the local machine).  We then tried backing up the factory restored iphone and replacing that restore file with one of my old backups on the external drive.  Ok, this is where it gets weird.  We replaced the guts of the folder but left the folder itself so itunes would continue to recognize the new backup folder with the old files.  Whoohoo, itunes now see's a backup folder full of old files, or so we thought.  The new files were deleted using shift delete so they would be gone for good and not mix with any files or folders.  When I restore my phone, it restores the files that were deleted from the restore file (pause here for a moment and imagine the stupid look on the face of tech support and I while we silently wonder how files that were permanently deleted were restored).  This left tech support and I both scratching our heads.  My service issue was escalated to the next level.  I waited for the phone call the next day that was scheduled at 10am to my wife's phone, but the call never came through.  As usual, apple disappoints again.  I just bought an iphone 5s and still have the iphone 4, and am looking for a solution to retrieve my contacts and restore to the 4 or 5s.  I am guessing that files in other folders must be associated with the iphone backup in order for itunes to retrieve the files.  Any ideas or support in retrieving my contacts would be greatly appreciated.

    I'm having the same issue with a file called IMG_2353.MOV that was imported into iPhoto from my iPhone and also have to manually select the items to import (so the rogue file doesn't error everything out). I've tried using Image Capture to locate/delete the file directly from my iPhone, but even though I can SEE it in Image Capture, I can't delete it or anything. This is VERY frustrating! My friend/Apple guru's only suggestion was to backup my phone then restore it through iTunes. Risky but should do the trick. I'm too scared to try, though!

  • My computer does not see my printer

    Hi: I am having a problem with my HP Photosmart 4500 printer. My computer does not see it. I have a USB connected to it, have uninstalled and installed the software two time, dowloaded the latest update and nothing. Add to that, I can not connect it by WIFI. WIFI on the printer is on but again, it's no where on any of the screens. The only variable I can think of that has changed has been the router I got recently from AT&T. Everything else works with the WIFI but no computer. I'm running 10.7.5. I have read the install instructions and nothing seems to be working. The one thing I do get from the HP install disc is a message reading the printer isn't recognized but there are no updates in support. OK, what am I missing here?

    Try these steps to uninstall the current software using the HP scrubber and then reinstall using the current HP driver available through Apple.
    To do so, perform the following steps:
    1. Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard/ and then click on “HP Uninstaller”
    2. Next click “Continue”
    3. Highlight the device on the left pane.
    4. Press and hold control+alt+command on the keyboard simultaneously while you click on “Uninstall”.
    5. After you do this, you will see a pop up that asks you if you want to uninstall all HP software. Please note, that in doing this, it will remove any other HP printers that you also have installed.
    6. Click “continue” and wait for the program to finish.
    7. After it completes, reboot your computer.
    Once the computer is back on, do the following steps:
    WARNING: This is will delete all of your printers.
    1. Go into “System Preferences” and then select either  “Print & Scan” or "Print & Fax".
    2. Right click (or control + click) on the rectangle listing your printers and then select “Reset Printing System”. 
    After you have reset the printing system, let's make sure you have the most recent HP driver package installed.
    You can do this two ways. First,  check for any available HP Update's by clicking the Apple icon and then Software Update. If there are any updates available, they should show up here. However, if the printer is connected by USB, it will not show any available updates. The other option is downloading the drivers from Apple's website.
    You can download it here: http://support.apple.com/downloads/DL907/en_US/HPPrinterDrivers2.14.dmg
    Once you have downloaded the driver package and completed the installation, you will want to plug your printer back in (if you were using a USB connection).  After the printer is plugged back in, go into your print settings under System Preferences > Print & Scan. To add the printer, click the plus sign. You should see your printer listed here. If not, click "Add Printer or Scanner." Click the name of your printer and then click "Use:” box.  Make sure that says the name of your printer and not AirPrint. If you are using the printer wirelessly, make sure that the printer "Kind:" is set to Bonjour or Bonjour Multifunction. Click "Add" down in the bottom right hand corner.
    This will add your printer back using the most recent HP print driver available through Apple. Let me know if this helps resolve your issue or not. If it doesn't, let me know I will see what else I can do.
    Best of luck,
    Kyle

    OK great info!
    I found 2 possible ethernet to USB adapters:
    By "Plugable":  USB 2.0 to ethernet LAN wired network adapter - seems this will work, but I'll contact Plugable.
    2. Apple USB Ethernet Adapter
    Easily connect your MacBook Air computer to an Ethernet network with the Apple USB Ethernet Adapter. Small and light, it connects to the USB 2.0 port of your MacBook Air and provides an RJ-45 connector that supports 10/100BASE-T performance.  BUT NOT SURE IF THIS WILL WORK ON ANYTHING BUT a MacBook Air…
    One person commented: 
    This little gem used to be the device of choice for adding a second Ethernet interface to a Mac Mini Server and I'd been using one that way for about a year. After doing a software update to 10.6.6 it stopped working. Forewarned is forearmed – it appears that Apple is finally enforcing the MacBook Air system requirement.
    Thanks for any additional comments.
    Best regards,

  • After upgrading to Mavericks my iMac does not see Sony camcorder in iMovie anymore. It still works on MacBook, so nothing wrong with camera or connections.

    After upgrading to Mavericks my iMac does not see my Sony camcorder anymore. I tried the new iMovie as well as the old version 9.0.9, which is still in Applications. I checked the camcorder and connections in iMovie on my MacBook (not upgraded) and that still functions properly, so the problem does not seem to be in iMovie, old or new, or in camcorder and connection.
    Anybody with the same problem or a solution?

  • HT201302 I have a large video on my ipad that I would like to transfer to a computer.  But my computer (using various software that came with Windows 7) does not see this video, although it sees all the other videos on my ipad.  This video is too big to t

    I have a large video on my ipad that I need to transfer to my PC (a window 7).  I could also use a windows 8 if that would help.  But all of the applications I have tried do not see this large video (52 mins) even though they transfer smaller videos fine.  The ipad will not let me trim the video, saying it is too large.  This is true even though I only want to trim the original, and not create a new video.  (Actually it refuses before it gets to the choice of creating something new or just eliminating something from the original).  I have been to an Apple store, but the people there only could recommend that I try some alternate applications to do the transfer (Kodak EasyShare).  I don't have much faith this will work.  I think I have this application on an old PC, and it is not something I want on my new computers.
    Is it possibled the size of this video just violates the transfer formats for files over USB?  If so, I will just delete the video and move on.  But the video is really something I wanted to save.  I would be happy to eliminate most of the video, but the ipad will not let me trim it.
    I also tried to import the video with Windows Moviemaker (free with W7).  It also does not see this file, but works fine on the other videos on the ipad.

  • Decided to update iphone 4 to ios 5.1 and mid update it froze and the screen is black.  Phone does not respond to any combinations of home and power buttons, when plugged into computer it does not see it is plugged in, any ideas?

    Decided to update iphone 4 to ios 5.1 and mid update it froze and the screen is black.  Phone does not respond to any combinations of home and power buttons, when plugged into computer it does not see it is plugged in so I cannot restore or anything.  Looks like the screen is on it's just unresponsive and black obviously.  Has anyone had this problem?  I was updating via wifi right in front of my router and my computer.

    Spoke to a "senior advisor" in the Apple TV department.  Her suggestions:  change channel in router to minimize/eliminate wifi interference from other users; move router away from any metal - i.e., DVD player, phone modem, etc.; keep router away from wireless 2.4 gH phones, which are "notorious" for crashing wifi routers.  So she confirms that the problem is one of connection to router suddenly dropping out.
    My own feeling is that none of these fixes will do the trick, because it seems pretty clear that there is a hardware component here - the timing of the drops seems like an overheating issue.  It takes 35-40 minutes for the box to warm up enough for the first drop; then each consecutive drop happens quicker than the one before, as it heats up more.  Each time it drops, its tiny brain gets a little more scrambled; last night it finally wouldn't start up again at all.
    My suggestion is that everyone who is experiencing this problem, please call Apple tech support and ask to speak to a senior advisor in the Apple TV department.  Make them aware of this problem!
