ADE won't read my Nook?
I've read previous threads regarding this issue and have tried the instructions listed but without results. My question is really if there's something I've missed or can also try? I purchased my Nook back in Aug 2011 and used to just download my ebooks via B&N. I want to put other ebooks on my Nook though but got the "not authorized" error. I downloaded ADE, authorized it with my ID and checked to be sure it was my Nook's ID as well (I'm assuming that means same email address and password?). Still can't get it to work.
So I saw the issues regarding the two folders needing to be deleted. After fixing the "hidden" folder issue on my Mac (which is my main computer), I deleted the .adobe-digital-editions folder. Still can't get ADE to read. I've seen a lot of solutions mention a second folder on the Nook drive called "Digital Editions". I can't find it. I DO have a folder named that in my documents though. I've tried deleting it as well but to no avail. It reappears the moment I load ADE again. Same goes with the .adobe file on the actual Nook drive. The moment I eject and reload my Nook, the folder is back. Doesn't matter if I deleted it by dragging to trash (and emptying it) or by using Terminal and the tricker code there. It just reappears much to my never ending frustration.
So I'm at a loss. It seems that these methods have worked for others and yet I've done exactly as the steps say (and even tried keeping the NOOK plugged in and relaunching ADE or vice versa) and nothing seems to work.
Is there something I'm missing? Or is there another method I can try?
Try v1.7.2 instead. Much more tolerant and less full of bugs.
Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.

ADE won't recognize my NOOK, stumped
Just downloaded ADE, trying to put books on my simple NOOK, but it won't recognize my device. I made sure I had it connected and reopened ADE and still nothing.
I'm having the same issue, but with my Nook app on a Samsung Galaxy Note 3. I can read the books (or at least, one of the two I've bought with ADE) on the Aldiko reader on the same phone, but not on the Nook app that I just downloaded -- even though the books show up there! I get a message saying "Could not open. User is not activated on ADE."

Working on a MAC with a Kobo. ADE won't let me read DRM books - 4.0 crashes when opening library books (EVERY. SINGLE. TIME) so I installed 3.0 and now I get an "activation error". I have it authorized to my ID....WHERE IS THE STAFF TO ANSWER QUESTIONS?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!? I have wasted hours on this and I'm getting really annoyed.
Thank you! This worked. But now I copied my files back, which was successful. But the last file did´t work. I even loaded this file from the bookstore. When I try to load this file, ADE crashes and gives me the following report:

Trouble downloading from reader to nook?
I am having trouble moving a book from Adobe Reader to Nook. The nook appears on the device list i gray, but will not allow a click on it. The nook does appear in my device manager as installed. What am I missing?
When you say The nook appears on the device list i gray, do you mean the device list of ADE (digital editions).
One possibility is that you have not yet registered the nook with ADE.
Try menu/Help/Authorize Device to ADE -
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

DVD drive won't read disks at boot
I have a Paviliton DV6-2113sa running Win7 HP 64bit.
I removed Acronis True Image and when I rebooted I got a BSOD at the point when the coloured balls should merge into one.
I thought OK, put the system repair disk into the DVD drive and boot up, but the drive is failing to read any recovery dosks. I think the drive has packed up as I haven't used it for some time.
Can I use any replacement drive in this model or must I get the same one again?
The drive light flickers as though it is reading data but it doesn't 'spool up' to speed and I don't get the 'press any key to load from DVD'.
The BSODs are a seperate issue which I think running a system repair will fix but I can't as the drive won't read data.
Is it possible to put the repair disk files onto a 4gb USB stick and if so, how do I do it?
Thanks.Hi Peeps
I had exactly the same problem with my Macbook, again from the UK. Really weird though as would intermittantly read DVD film's which worked fine previously.
Well.... Took it to my local Apple store and saw a genius and anyway they replaced the super drive and logic board (surprised about the logic board!).
But just got it back today and the DVD drive is completely fubard so is being returned tomorrow to get this sorted!
Moral of the story, sounds like a drive or board problem. Will keep you updated when I get mine back

My Adobe has stopped allowing me to move library books from my PC to my KOBO (both show authorized on the ADE. the message reads : CE_COPY_NOT_ALLOWED - No permission to copy book. It used to work. Any easy fixed for me?(I already tried uninstall and re-install)
Welcome to the Club! Got the same Problem and had a really hard time reaching the Customer Support because they were down due to maitenance! Just wrote to their experts chat and hope to get an answer in this life!
I tried to authorize my Computer and eBookreader with a new Adobe-ID, but it says I've done used this ID too often, even though it was brandnew! Can't copy my just-purchased eBook because "Copying is not allowed".
I hold my thumbs for you that Adobe solves this Problem fast enough. Other ways I'll sell my eBookreader and buy the Kindle-Reader from Amazon and say GOOD BYE to Adobe! -
Hp pavilion dv4-1123us Media Card won't read
I have a hp Pavilion dv4-1123us laptop that won't read a 16 GB SDHC media card. The card works in my PC, so the card is good. I have a Scandisk 5-1 media reader hooked to my home PC that would not read it but I found through Scandisk site I needed to download the latest Firmware which I did and now the card works on my PC. The reader has always and still does read a 512 MB and a 2 GB XD cards on my laptop. I am running XP Pro OS.
I have searched the HP site for driver downloads but only see them for Windows 7 and 8 not XP.
Can someone help me on this?Hello wgray826,
You’re having a problem not being able to read a 16GB SDHC card.
I think that your computer does not support the SDHC card.
Here is a link to your user guide and what cards it supports.
I noticed that it shows the Secure Digital but not the Secure Digital High Capacity.
Clicking the White Kudos star on the left is a way to say Thanks!
Let me know how everything goes.
Have a good day. -
How do I set up an external MIDI input on the new MacBook Pro? Mine won't read it.
I've been trying to set up my TASCAM US-600 on my new MacBook. I've never used a Mac before so I'm not sure what's wrong. I tried installing the drivers and when I plugged in the interface, it wouldn't read the device. I now have the interface plugged in through a USB hub. The Mac now reads TASCAM software but when I go to the system preferences, the Mac won't read the MIDI input. So all in all it's been a big pain in the ***. Are there any Mac experts that may know what the problem is or how to help? Thanks!
are you sure its mini display port? MDP and thunderbolt are the same port.
for referenece, this is mini DVI (obsolete)

Palm Desktop 6.2 won't read data file after IR synch with IIIC
I have Windows 7, an old IIIC, and Palm Desktop 6.2. Since I can use a USB with that combination, I synced with an infrared connection. The files made it to the Palm directory, but the desktop program won't read them. My previous version of Palm Desktop allowed me to search for the data directory, but I can't find a way to do so with 6.2. And, no, the older version wouldn't display the data, either, in spite of my specifying the path.
I'm so close! One more step and I won't have to buy a smart phone and pay a monthly fee to carry around my contact date. Please help.Palm Desktop 6.2.2 is not an upgrade to 4.x! It was designed to fix the things Microsoft broke when Vista was born.
It lacks many features that existed for many years in the 4.x versions.
I'd suggest doing a Clean Uninstall and reinstall your original version!

ITunes won't read ID3 tags that Windows sees
I recently switched my library over from a Mac laptop to a PC desktop. I have about 70 GB of perfectly organized music accumulated over years and years.
In the process, after I loaded some songs into iTunes (using the Keep My iTunes Folder Organized and all that stuff), I noticed that about 10 GB of music were without titles, artists, or album info, and just displayed the name of the MP3 file (so like instead of displaying 15 Step by Radiohead from In Rainbows, Track 1 it displayed "01 15 Step" in the Title column only).
The problem is that when I navigate to these songs in Windows Explorer, not only do I see all of the correct ID3 information, I see the extras like Album Art have loaded perfectly as well. I can play these songs in Windows Media Player and the ID3 info is perfect.
Does anyone know why iTunes won't read these ID3 tags or how to get iTunes to read them?I am also having the same problem with about 200 of my MP3s. The tag info shows up perfectly using QuickLook on Leopard, but in iTunes I can't see any of the info. I have tried converting the ID3 tag version, revesing the unicode....nothing.
Have you had any luck? -
CD/DVD drive won't read any CDs or DVDs
Whenever I insert a DVD, CD, or CD-ROM my computer won't read the disc. The computer starts making noise like it is reading the disc but then it stops. It tries 3 times (starts and stops) and then just spits the disc out. I can't watch movies, install software, etc. How do I fix this.
Before taking it or sending it anywhere I'd first try resetting PRAM…

Drive won't read any dvd ejects it automatically
My drive Won't read any kind of DVDs, it keeps ejecting automatically after spinning for a while. it's been going on for a while now. please help!!!!!
You can try resetting the SMC Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) - Apple Support
and PRAM How to Reset NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support
If that doesn't help you can try a cleaning disc or a quick shot of canned air. It's likely though that your drive has failed, it' not all that uncommon. It that is the case you can either replace it or have it replaced but it's far cheaper just to buy a usb external drive....just not Apples because it won't work with macs with a built in drive working or not. . -

do you have the win 7 cd handy, try to boot into the discs and see whether that works, this will tell you whether that is software or hardware problem. Such failures do occur, due to ageing of laser.
