Why does adobe digital editions not recognize my nook?

Why would adobe digital editions not recognize my nook when I connect the nook through the usb port?

Thanks for the quick reply, and sorry for the late response. I'm trying to do this for my mum on her computer, but I don't live with her, so it can be hard for me to find the spare time to get to her place.
Okay, let me start by listing a few things in dot points:
- Adobe Digital Editions does not recognise the device. There doesn't even appear to be any menu options for a "device" anywhere in the program.
- When I connect the device to the computer, the screen lights up and the word "USB" appears on it, so it is definitely noting the PC connection. However, no device appears in "My Computer" (running Windows XP). Tried using "Add Devices", but it couldn't find anything.
- Yellowstone, the brand, appears to be a product of JB Hifi, the store she purchased it from, and has no website or online software/drivers.
- I downloaded Calibre as you said. It seems a lot cheaper, but has easier to read options. However, it still won't let me load to my device (the text is greyed-out). I assume this means the program is not recognising the device either.
Not sure what to do now, kinda run out of ideas. Any more help would be greatly appreciated.
Thakns Linda.

  • Why does adobe digital editions not recogize my pandigital nova e reader/tablet?

    My pandigital 7" E reader/tablet is not recognized by adobe digital editions. I have looked on the site for compatible devices and it is listed.  It has the kindle app installed and as far as I know it is has an adroid system 2,3,4   Any help would be appreciated

    You'll want to ask at the Digital Editions forum :: http://forums.adobe.com/community/adobe_digital_editions rather than here (the Adobe Reader forum).

  • Why does adobe digital editions no longer recognise my server?

    I can no longer download books, It says 'connectrion error' and 'can no longer connect to fulfilment server and make sure I am connected to the internet' which I am.

    Might be corrupted preferences ...
    Disconnect the iPhone.
    On your Mac open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy the following:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Image_Capture.plist
    Click Go then move the com.apple.Image_Capture.plist file to the Trash.
    Restart your Mac and launch Image Capture.
    Reconnect your iPhone. See if Image Capture recognizes the device.

  • How to get Adobe Digital Editions to recognize my Samsung Tablet?

    I download EPUB books from our state library to Adobe Digital Editions.  My Nook died.  I got a Samsung Tablet and downloaded the Nook app.  How do I get Adobe digital editions to recognize it my Samsung so I can copy books to it

    Tablets don't generally show up in ADE.
    You need to transfer files using a file manager instead to copy files to the tablet as a mounted drive.
    Copy the .epub or .pdf files, not the .acsm token files.
    (On Apple devices it is even more awkward, and you need to use iTunes, Dropbox or similar).
    I don't know if the Nook app will read all Adobe DRM books or not.
    Try the Bluefire app which I know supports Adobe DRM.  Or Aldiko.
    Also, the Overdrive app should let you download direct to the tablet and read library books; it's always felt a bit awkward for me though.

  • Does Adobe Digital Editions support media queries?

    Does Adobe Digital Editions support EPUBs with media queries?

    Thanks Jim,
    Is it possible to use more than one CSS by using conditional query in XHTML like this:
      <link href="a.css" media="all and (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 1024px)" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
      <link href="b.css" media="all and (min-width:1025px)" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
    ADE will recognize the "media" parameters?

  • Why does my airport extreme not recognize my cable modem anymore?

    Why does my airport extreme not recognize my cable modem anymore?

    Have you tried resetting the modem? Power it down and let it rest a moment, then power it back up again.
    Also, some ISPs require physically detaching their cable from the modem for it to be fully reset. Literally unscrew it from the modem. Try that, in conjunction with powering it down.
    Don't do anything with your Extreme, other than powering it down too, in the event the modem reset does not help. Reconfiguring it may be necessary but this is not justified quite yet.

    Look, you can build an HD DVD with an SD movie, just as you can build an SD DVD with an HD movie. This is not a bug, it is most likely user error. Apple will not be addressing it.
    Just start over, and ensure you are building an SD DVD by bringing up the inspector for the disc (click on the background in the Graphical tab).
    Make sure SD DVD is selected:
    (If you do the same thing on your ill fated project, you'll see that HD DVD is selected)
    Build your DVD and you'll be fine.
    Patrick
    P.S. You will need to google HD DVD and Blu-Ray if you want to understand the difference between the formats. The reason that DVDSP included HD DVD was that its format was similar to SD DVD's. Blu-Ray is something else entirely.

    Hi troy0891,
    If I'm understanding your question correctly, when your MacBook Pro wakes from sleep, the internal keyboard and/or trackpad are slow to respond.   However, in your comments, you mention a bluetooth keyboard finder launches.  
    Since your internal keyboard and trackpad are not bluetooth devices, I think this may be the issue.  In the resource below, take a look at the section I have highlighted, and see if deselecting the option to allow Bluetooth devices to wake the computer" resolves your issue.
    OS X Yosemite: If your Mac won’t go to or stay in sleep
    https://support.apple.com/kb/PH18596?locale=en_US
    Check your system’s Bluetooth settings: 
    Bluetooth devices can wake your Mac. If you don’t want a Bluetooth keyboard or mouse to be able to wake the Mac, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Bluetooth. 
    Click Advanced, then deselect “Allow Bluetooth devices to wake this computer.”
    If that option is already deselected, try turning your Bluetooth off if you are not working with a wireless keyboard and mouse.
    Let me know if that helps ...
    - Judy

  • Does Adobe Digital Editions work with the Kobo Arc 7 e-reader ?

    I cannot get Adobe Digital Editions to recognise my Kobo Arc 7.
    Does Adobe Digital Editions work with the Kobo Arc 7 e-reader ?
    It is recognised partly by Calibre but then produces an communication error message.
    Are there any other utilities I could use to organise DRM files downloaded to be stored on the Kobo Arc?

    No. For information about the future plans for this see http://blogs.adobe.com/billmccoy/2009/10/adobe-ebooks--.html

  • Why does ADE 4.0 not recognize my Sony PRS-350?

    Why does ADE 4.0 not recognize my Sony PRS-350?

    Hi olvaso
    I have the exact same problem and needless to say, I am really pissed off!!!
    Such technology should not have compatibility problems, either your reader can download ebooks or else it should not be sold as an ebook reader.
    I've had to download a DRM removal tool in order to read ebooks that I PAID FOR on a regular e-reader that I REGULARLY BOUGHT!!!
    The problem is, not all e-books can get unlocked so I already have 4 books I can't read except on my PC.

  • Does adobe digital edition need a license for business use?

    I would like to find out if a license is required to install Adobe Digital Editions for use in a business?

    I'm giving the same advice a few times on different threads, so I hope it's right.
    Digital Editions recognizes most dedicated eBook readers (as in the list) directly so they show up in ADE,
    but does not recognize tablets that have eBook capabilities.
    This includes android tablets (probably including KoboArc), and ios tablets such as iPad.
    If you have a tablet, you need to install an eBook reading app on it: I suggest Bluefire.
    Make sure Bluefire app is registered to the same AdobeID as your ADE.
    You can then copy epub files from your PC/Mac using a file manager and read them using Bluefire.
    (Apple makes it more difficult, you need iTunes, Dropbox or similar to copy).
    If the books are not DRM, there is no need to use ADE at all;
    either download them direct to the tablet and read on Bluefire, or download to the PC/Mac and copy.
    For DRM library books you will find an Overdrive app that allows books to be checked out, downloaded and read directly on an android/ios device.
    There are also dedicated apps from various vendors.

  • Adobe Digital Editions not responding

    I try to open adobe digital editions and it says not responding as soon as I open it and it does nothing for hours.  It still does this even after uninstalling it and reinstalling it.  I really need this program to work on three essays.  Please help.

    Two possibilities.
    One is you have hit a bug in v2.0.x.  Try using the less buggy 1.7.2 instead (see below).
    The other is that you have an ereader device plugged in with lots of books on it.
    A new installation of ADE has the very irritating habit of completely searching such a device for books that have nothing to do with ADE,
    and writing lots of extra information about them to the device that you don't want there.
    This is a very slow process, and it gives no indication that it is happening.
    ~~~~~~~~~
    There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0 (and 2.0.1).  Try replacing ADE2.0 with the older but more reliable v1.7.2.
    (You can have them both installed at once if you like.)
    Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editions/kb/cant-install-digital-editions.html
    The forum software is sometimes corrupting the link above.  There shouldn't be a blank in 'editio ns.html'.  The following redirects to the same page: http://tinyurl.com/diged172
    Some people have found ADE trying to upgrade automatically. 
    It appears (not 100% sure) that if you install ADE2.0 as a new install (not as an upgrade) that your 1.7.2 will continue to run.
    Probably best to say no if 2.0.x installation asks if you want to migrate your library.
