BT Wifi on Nook HD
I've been trying to add the BT Wifi app on my daughters Nook HD via the Play store but apparently the device isn't compatible with BT Wifi. Don't really understand why that would be as the Nook runs ICS in the back end albeit with their own front end. It can't be an Android version issue as I've run the app on Gingerbread and Froyo before so is it just a case of the device not being 'listed' as compatible in Google Play?
---Remember to mark as 'solved' and give stars when you like a post---
Have you tried side loading?
If not, you could always grab another android device, install the BTWifi app on this this (if you've not already).
Then install an 'apk extractor' from the play store and if the device doesn't have a 'file manager', install one of these too.
Open the extractor and look for the BTWifi app and extract it - note where the apk file gets placed. Open the file manager and look for this file, open it and you should see the BTWifi apk file.
Connect this device to a laptop/PC and copy the apk file to the desktop (or your normal location).
Disconnect the device.
Grab the nook and make sure you have ticked the option to allow installs from unknown sources. Install a 'file manager' on this device (again if this doesn't come pre installed). Connect to the laptop/PC and drag the apk file to the nook (in to the android file -> data location). Disconnect the nook, open the file manager, find the apk file, click on it and install BTWifi from there.
Above sounds like it's going to be a pita, but it isn't. Also note above written from memory, so if you hit a wall, give us a shout, but not sure what "front end" these use.....?

I share computer with wife. We each have a nook. how do i authorize each of us on one computer?
I need to authorize 2 users on same shared computer (separate win 7 signons) for 2 Nooks. How can I do this?
thanksADE stores the authorization on a per OS user basis, so as long as there are two seperate OS user, this will work.
I would suggest narrowing down the problem by getting one nook to work with one account.
Assuming you start with your wife's account:
Start with making sure ADE is authorized to the correct account for the OS user (you can check this in the Library menu -> Authorize Computer),
If it's not then you can deactivate ADE by using Ctrl (Cmd on Mac) Shift D, and then relaunch with the correct AdobeID.
Make sure you can view content.
Then make sure you can copy content your wife's nook.
The make sure your wife's nook can view the content.
If you can't then you may need to deactivate and reactivate the nook, using Ctrl (Cmd on Mac) Shift E
After that's working, and only after that's working, log out of the OS user, log in with your ID and lather/rinse repeat with your nook.
Afer you are finished with your account - then go back and double check that your wifes account/ADE/Nook are all still working and you should still be good to go.
p.s. Your problem with #1 is expected if you already have different ADE IDs that you have content authorized to, and you've copied the wrong content to the wrong nook.
pps - Just to make sure - content purchased from B&N does not work in ADE 1.7.2 you will need to use either:
- Nook for Mac/PC
- NookStudy for Mac/PC
or
- ADE 1.8.2 (currently in public beta at labs.adobe.com) -
Can't get library ebooks to load to ADE on Mac
My wife has a Nook and I downloaded ADE to our Mac so she can download library books. Originally I thought it didn't matter what Adobe ID was used to set up ADE on the Mac. I found out it does with the Nook. The library book downloaded to ADE but it would not transfer to the Nook. So I deleted ADE and had my wife set up an Adobe ID. Then reinstalled ADE and Authorized using my wife's Adobe ID. Then we tried downloading the library book again but ADE would not accept the book. Fast forward to today when we tried again.
1. When ADE comes up on the Mac the following dialog box appears with this message—One or more downloads are not finished. Do you want to resume pending tasks? Cancel or OK
2. When clicking OK another dialog box comes up with this message—Error getting license. License server communication problem. E_LIC_ALREADY_FULFILLED_BY_ANOTHER_USER.
3. When I click OK the dialog box disappears.
I have tried dragging the book from the download folder to ADE and it bounces back every time. So there is some incompatibility going on some where. Are there any ideas what I should do?
Johnboy5010
PS. I clicked on cancel in the first dialog box and it doesn't show again but the book still will not drag and drop into ADE.

I dug around the Adobe website and found some release notes for ADE 1.7.2. In the notes it stated that Safari needed to be able to recognize the .acsm file. The automatic recognition had been removed in Safari, and the notes gave a link to a blog. In the blog discussion it had a sample file to add to the User/Library/Preferences. I downloaded that file, opened it, and added the .ascm to the list. I went back and downloaded yet another copy of the library ebook. With ADE open on the iMac I just clicked once on on the book in the download folder and it zapped into the ADE app. So I immediately got my wife's Nook and successfully transfered the file. So once I wiped more blood from my eyes from having beaten my head on that brick wall, I double click on a file of the book on my desktop. It too went into ADE. (I deleted that copy.) So apparently just clicking or double clicking the file after downloading will put it into ADE. Someone pass the bandaid box please.but it still no songs appear on my ipod.
Hi,
Welcome to Apple Discussions
Symptom
One or more of the following occurs:
iPod does not show up in iTunes or as disk in Windows Explorer
iPod does not show up as disk in Windows Explorer (even though disk mode is enabled on the iPod)
iTunes and Windows Explorer report the wrong amount of available space on iPod
No songs appear on the iPod after an apparently successful update from iTunes
Music copied to mapped network drive instead of iPod

Brand new mac book pro very slow
I just purchased a brand new mac book pro 13" with and i5 processor, 2.3ghz, 4 gb ram, running osX Lion. I bought it to replace my 2008 mac book pro that had a failing hard drive and a bad logic board. So i bought this new mac book 2 days ago, set it up and everything was great until i went to surf the net. My internet is so slow, webpages take ages to load about 5 minutes or more, same with videos (like on youtube). So I tried my old mac book and the internet was running great on that one, same with my roomates old macbook, my boyfriends pc and numerous other devices connected to my wifi (a nook, a tablet, and an iphone). So i checked my network settings everything was good, its was functioning fine according to network diagnostics. After googling this I switched my dns to googles public dns which made no difference either. When plugged directly into the router via ethernet the internet surfs like a champ. If the wireless internet preforms like this my new macbook is somewhat useless to me .Help! What could be the problem? Or did apple just really screw up the airport on these new macs? My old mac was a beast speed wise, i firgure the new mac should put the older ones to shame. What gives?
I suggest use the ethernet cable. They're much faster to transfer. You only need to connect your imac and mbpr directly to each other using the cable. There is no need for the wifi if you connect the ethernet cable.

My nook app keeps telling me "Please be sure you have internet connectivity, then try again." I am currently connected to wifi and it seems that all my other apps that need to be connect to the internet are properly working. I have turn off my phone, signed off my wifi, installed a new app, but nothing is working. My friend is having similar issues. My phone is up to date. I even tried taking off the wifi in hopes that it could just connect to the 3g but nothing. Not sure if anyone else is experiencieng this issue or knows what I can do. I think that it may be an app problem that needs fixed, but not sure. Help!
Maybe its a Viber problem. As that is not an Apple product, why don't you try and contact the developer?

I am trying to connect an IPod Touch to my Verizon MiFi Hotspot. It has a password. I have set up a computer, a tablet, and 2 nooks to this MiFi but can't get the IPod to connect to any network that has a password. Please help!
There are other things to try.
Turn WiFi off on the iPad, restart it and then turn WiFi on again.
Reset the network settings on the iPad. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings, that makes you have to start all over again. -
I used the Adobe Digital handbook to trouble shoot, but it didn't help. I ensured my connection to WiFi was working, it is. I un-authorized, then re-authorized my nook, and it still didn't work.
Moved to Adobe Digital Editions
There is no version of Adobe Digital Editons for the nook that I am aware of. Just Mac or Windows. There may be a version of Bluefire Reader or OverDrive for the Nook as I do not have one I do not know if that is so. There are versions for the Andriod OS. -
Hi,
I have an iphone 4S with movies from itunes that I have bought on it. I also have a nook color tablet 16gb. I have the nook app on my iphone also. My question is can I connect my iphone to my nook tablet to watch the itunes movies on a bigger screen, for example when I'm on a plane? Hula and Netflix don't work without wireless or regular internet connection.
Thanks for any ideas that might be out there!- You have had to have turned on the FindMyiPod feature (Settings>iCloud), wifi on and Location Services on.
- By now the battery would be fully drained.
- The SN will only allow you to identify the iPod as your if it is recovered.
- Apple will not help

- Report to police and change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod. -
I have a Cisco/Linksys home router- got it for my laptop which is not working right now...anyway we purchased a Nook Tablet for our daughter which needs to connect to wifi- but when I go through set-up on the Nook, it says I need my 'wireless password'! So I type in my 'usual password' and it disconnects and says it's the "wrong password"....
Update:
....So, today I called Cisco/Linksys support and the gal w/ the heavy accent tells me that to give me my current password OR to reset it so I may use it (my own router) I have to pay her $29.99 for a "one time tech support fee"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????????
So, I say 'well my router's not broken and there's NO problem w/ it...it's just that Century Link installed it for us and they don't support it or even know what the password is!? For the laptop it just connected right away and I didn't have to type any password!!
So now I'm stuck between the terrible and UNFAIR policies of two greedy corporations!
Century Link can't help me and Cisco- which can wants to charge me 30 bucks just to TELL ME THE PASSWORD THAT CAME W/ MY ROUTER!FacebookSupport wrote:

"I would like to understand what password you are using. What is your router model? What security are you implementing on your network? Login to your routers admin page and check under wireless->wireless security."
"password and connection issues are usually easy fix. answer Reuel's questions"
"Hey Reuel, where is my "router's admin page"? I'm running AVG Security. My laptop that does not 'work' ( I believe the charger quit charging, so the battery's dead) is why I had Centurylink install it. I don't recall ever having to 'login' via a password, just had to turn on the router and all was good.
I use the same password basically for everything w/ just minor variations but none of those worked according to the results on the new tablet?!"

PC won't ommunnicate with WIFI Printer
I have an HP 5060 J610 WIFI printer tht I have been using frequently. To day the PC won't communicate with the printer, up to and including not allowing me to delete the priner/driver and re-create it.
I can print to the printer from my iPhone, an iOS device, as well as my Nook tablet, an Andriod device. Further, fom the PC, I can point my web browser to the IP address of the Printer and via HP's Embedded Web Service, successfully print to the printer.
In short, there is no problem with the printer. I beleive there is a OS lock on WIFI port of the PC. FYI - I'm running Windows 8.1.
How can I see/work-with the ports?
Any suggestions would be helpful.If you can't solve your issue and no one in the community can help, contact support to speak with a tech support agent at (800) 457-7777.

This maybe a redundant question, I want to back up the stuff in my Imac using TC. I do not want to use this Imac wireless nor do I want my backups done wireless but can I still use the wifi system on TC for Ipad ,Nook, etc. without having to configure my Imac everytime to use a wifi devise?
Yes. Just connect the iMac to your Time Capsule with an Ethernet cable, then go into System Preferences->Network and either set Ethernet to a higher priority than AirPort, or turn off AirPort completely.
Your wireless devices will continue to connect to the internet, and even to your iMac, through the Time Capsule wirelessly, while your iMac will enjoy the faster speeds and improved reliability of the wired ethernet connection. Your devices which connect to your iMac "wirelessly" will continue to do so; they will not know the difference between your iMac on the Time Capsule's wireless network and your iMac on the Time Capsule's wired network – it's all the same as far as connectivity is concerned. -
Mac Mini WiFi (airport) fails after waking from sleep
I recently bought a Mac Mini (Mid 2010 model)...my first Apple computer since my dearly departed IIe. I've been having repeated intermittent issues with the WiFi on this machine.
Owning it for two weeks, then one day it woke from sleep, and decided it no longer knew the password to my wireless network. With everything else in my house on wireless, I knew that the password had not been changed (I am using WPA2). Every time I would retype the password, I would get either a 'Connection Timeout' error, or an 'Incorrect Password' error. Every once in a while it would connect, but it would not get a valid IP.
Restarted the system, and then it tells me there's 'No Airport Card Installed'
Reset PMU/SMU/PRAM (etc) and the airport card comes back, but it STILL will not connect.
I go into keychain, and delete the saved wireless password.
I create a new 'location'.
No go.
So I made a trip with my machine to the Genius bar at my local apple store. Miracle of miracles, it WORKS PERFECTLY from the moment they turn it on. Get it home, it continues to work perfectly. This was Saturday.
This morning, same problem starts again. I was having similar issues with my iPad not connecting to the WiFi when waking from sleep, but this was fixed when I factory reset the iPad. I've never experienced this issue with either of my iPod touches (3rd and 4th gen). I'm not having any wireless problems with my PS3, Wii, Blu-ray player, Android phone, Nook, HP Printer, or Windows laptop.

IPhone 4 having trouble connecting to wifi with redirect
Hi all,
I was wondering if someone out there can help me. I have an iPhone 4 running 5.0.1. Ever since i upgraded to iOs 5, i have noticed trouble connecting to the wifi at work. At home and school the phone connects perfectly. At work we have a redirect page. When going under safari it just uses my mobile network (which is not that strong). I check the wifi menu and it seems as if it is "trying" to connect...it shows the grey pinwheel spinning next to the correct netowrk but nothing ever happens. I try to "renew lease", i turn off wifi, i reset the phone. Sometimes it connects first try. Other times it takes HOURS. I assumed maybe it was just the network, so i attempted to try to connect my nook, and the nook connects right away. I never touched any settings, but i am very confused on to what may be going on here to explain the type of problem i am having since iOs 5. Thank you in advance.
JennYou'll need to provide complete details before anyone will be able to offer suggestions.
For future posts, please don't put a lot of excess characters in the subject line. Just a brief summary of the problem - e.g. "iPhone 3GS with iOS 5.01 cannot connect to WiFi" - will be sufficent. I've asked the Hosts to edit out the superfluous junk.
Regards. -
I clicked on the ACSM file and it opened the book, which I think means I'm screwed.
When I try to authorize mu nook, it pops up a cancer warning. At this point, I can't even get to the "authorize device" item under my nook's gear-icon -- that's greyed out.
Could Adobe make this any more difficult if they tried?Well, you cannot use the 3G USB modem plugged directly into the Express. However, you can configure your MacBook Pro to do 'Internet sharing' (SysPrefs>Sharing) over the Ethernet port, and then connect your Express into the Ethernet port. Alternatively, you could always get your MacBook to 'create a wireless network'.

Outgoing mail on Nook Tablet issues
My wife's new Nook tablet receives emails through the nook email app fine but she cannot send. We have Yahoo Verizon and I've tried port 25, 587 and one other I spotted in another post. Just get a Connection Error. Also her deleted mails just sit in her Trash.
Any ideas? I can't find another Nook Tablet mention.
Thanks
Solved!
