Will Digital Editions Recognize SD Card on Nook?

This seems like an obvious question but I'm having trouble finding an answer. I use ADE to download library books, first to my PC and then to my Nook. A recent download was a large guide book (170K) and after that I found out the basic Nook (Simple Touch) only has about 250K for ADE books. I decided to add a 16 GB Micro SD card to the Nook. When I connected the Nook to my PC, Windows Explorer shows the Nook and a Removable Disk (SD Card). ADE only shows the Nook as an attached device. I decided to download a number of large books. The only way I could do it was to use ADE to download it to the Nook where they would end up in the Nook's Digital Editions folder and I would have to drag and drop the EPUB onto the Removable DIsk (SD card) using Windows Explorer so I would have enough room to download the next book. Is this the only way to do this? Is there any way for ADE to recognize the SD Card? In my "borrowed" folder of library books in ADE, the books that I had to move onto the SD card say the source is "missing" (because it's not in the Digital Editions folder on the Nook). If I de-authorize the Nook and reauthorize it, will it recognoze the SD Card? Do I need to move the Digital Editions folder to the SD card? Do I have to add a Digital Editions folder on the SD Card? I can find the books to read on the Nook but this is a pretty strange way to do things.

After posting this question I found a suggestion on the Nook Forum, tried it and it worked. I figure that I might as well share it. In Windows Explorer you need to name the SD Card "NOOK SD" (right-click on "removeable disk" and use "rename") and then copy the folder ".adobe-digital-editions" (with its contents) from the Nook to the SD card. When you start up ADE, both the NOOK and NOOK SD show up as devices. The sources for the "borrowed books" are no longer missing and the books can be read from the SD card. I'm not sure why this isn't explained anywhere but I'm happy now.

Using digital editions 2.0, I cannot transfer books downloaded to digital editions from library to my nook. Error message: failed to write destination file.

Using digital editions 2.0, I cannot transfer books downloaded to digital editions from the library to my nook. I get an error message: failed to write destination file. At first, this happened once in a while but now every time. Help!!!

Modern kobo books should just use regular Adobe DRM and be readable on compatible ereaders that are authorized to the correct Adobe ID.
I understand older kobo book had different DRM: but I wouldn't expect those to
When Adobe DRM book information say 'no copying', that generally means no copying outside those Adobe DRM limitations.
You should be able to copy within the restrictions. You can double-check that with the sellers (Kobo).
Just double-checking
the pocket book is Adobe DRM compatible?
that you have authorized your pocket book with your current Adobe ID?
menu/Help/Authorize Device when plugged into ADE: Library/Authorize Device if using the older more reliable ADE 1.7.2
If the pocket book is already authorized but to a different ID, you will need to deauthorize it first, ctrl-shift-E to ADE with device plugged in (or cmd-shift-E on Mac).
Be aware that will lose the ability to read DRM books authorized with the previous ID.

Can't get digital editions to connect to new nook

how do i get digital editions to recognize our new nook?

Is this a dedicated ereader, or a tablet with ereader capabilities.
A dedicated ereader should show up as a device in the left pane of ADE (Digital Editions).
You must then register the device, Make sure ADE itself is authorized, then use 'menu/Help/Authorize Device' ('Library/Authorize Device' on the older more reliable ADE1.7.2)
Most tablets don't get seen by ADE at all.
You need to install an Adobe DRM compatible app (Bluefire seems most reliable, there are also Aldiko and Overdrive) and register that with your Adobe ID.
Then transfer books from then computer using file manager (Windows Explorer, Mac Finder) to the tablet which should show up as a mounted drive when plugged in by USB.

I have a nook and have been using it regularly to borrow library books along with digital editions. Normally as soon as I plug my nook in the icon pops up on the desk top. Now it doesn't and it isn't showing up in the digital editions.

I have a nook and have been using it for almost 8 months to borrow books from the library. Normally, as soon as I plug in my nook, the nook icon pops up on the desktop and digital editions recognizes the nook. All of sudden the nook icon is missing and If I try to unplug from the computer, it says it was not disconnect properly. Any ideas? Is something hidden or what?

I'm just trying to print my online pay stub
Since my printer isn't working, I'd like to save document to my desktop ("save as" is the only option given to me) and send it as an attachment to a friend's computer and working printer.
What browser are you using?
Are you trying to print or to save the doc? Whether you have a working printer or not is really immaterial. If you're trying to print, then File > Print > PDF > Save as PDF…. If the resulting PDF is small enough (<5MB, though my preference is <1MB), e-mail it to your pal. If it's too big, transfer it using a chat programme or a file service (MediaFire, RapidShare, etc).
Now, I am currently trying to send the document directly (via email, an option given under "file") the pay stub from my employer (who uses ADP online payroll services), to that computer and working printer ....and I'm receiving a window (with apple mail logo on it) that begins with "To view this page, you must log in to this area on agateway.adp.com:443:" and asks for "name" and "password". I've put in both ADP's information, and what I believe (could be very wrong) to be apple mail's information, and either/neither/nothing seems to work!
I don't understand any of this. You need to explain better—or perhaps just post a screen shot (blank any private or confidential info on it prior to posting).

Adobe Digital editions won't recognize my Kobo?

Why won't the library in Adobe Digital Editions recognize my Kobo?

There might be two parts to the answer. First, from what you saw, you can
get ebooks to ADE without the ereader attached. The ereader might not be
supported by ADE, and because you've 'been through the steps several
times', I think that is probably the reason.
Second, the ebook you're attempting to transfer (which is what I'm reading
into your wording) may be DRM-protected, and may not be transferrable. You
can check this by looking at the Item Info of the ebook. When you're in
Library mode, put your cursor on the small arrow next to the ebook name. A
drop-down menu will appear, and you can choose 'Item Info' from the list.
Click on that, and a screen will appear showing you where the ebook is and
the properties assigned by the publisher to it. If the 'copy' parameter
says no, then you have your answer.
Hope this helps!

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.

Is Toshiba Journ.e Touch compatible with Adobe Digital Editions?

Greetings from Barcelona!
I have problems to authorize my Toshiba Journ.e Touch. Adobe Digital Editions recognizes the device, but there is no way to authorize it, there is no option for this.
Thus I cannot transfer my ebooks from my computer to the Toshiba. At the Adobe Forum it seems that other users had the same problem. I cannot transfer my ebooks from my computer to the Toshiba Device.
Does anybody know what is wrong or how to solve this?
Thanks so much!
Cristina

Hello cristinadeseras,
unfortunately, it is not possible to use the "Adobe Digital Editions" on the JournE Touch.
The system requirements of the JournE Touch are not enough for this program.
best regards

Adobe Digital Editions not detecting device

My Adobe Digital Editions is not detecting my NOOK tablet. Please help

Unlike dedicated eReaders, most tablets are not recognized by ADE.
You need to install and Adobe DRM compatible app such as Blufire on the tablet,
and copy files using a file manager.
~~~
Another possibility is a bug in ADE2.0, which is strippy with some devices.
There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0. 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.

I recently purchased a new Nook HD and cannot get Digital Editions to recognize the device.

Need help getting Digital Editions to recognize new Nook

I'm having same problem with new iPad Mini. My public library that I connect with suggested that maybe I have too many devices (only allowed 6) attached to the Adobe ID, even though this is not the error message I'm getting. In fact, I generally don't get an error message at all, I login to OverDrive, then try and authorize my Adobe ID, which then takes me back to the OverDrive login window, and repeat. I must have tried about 20 times by now. My next step will be to contact Adobe Live Support and have them reset all my devices, just in case that's what the problem actually is.
Good luck!
