We've had a lot of questions on how to load books on the nook from other bookstores. Do you need an Adobe ID first? Can you do it from multiple computers? Should you manually transfer the books to the nook or nookColor?

While you can use the nook application on a Samsung Galaxy Tab or an iPhone only the nook or nookColor device will allow you to use ADE to transfer DRM protected ePubs to them!

I think the ability to load non-B&N content on the nook is the #1 feature for me. ADE is the closest thing to a standard in this world of copy-protection and it seems to give e-reader owners the most flexibility.

I've put together a short video that details the exact process to configure ADE and load a book from Overdrive or Kobo onto the nook. I hope you find it useful!

I was able to drag the book to my nook but when I try to open it to my nook it says error #2038. What does this mean?

I have an Android tablet. I have the nook app loaded, I also have the kindle app loaded. I have an ADE account activated. If I hook up my tablet and drag and drop a title will it find the Nook app? Or am i better off just installing ADE on my tablet. Thanks

Hi, I just used ADE for the first time to transfer an eGoogle book from my computer to my Nook. All went well except for one small thing - there is no cover art for the book icon on my Nook. I see it in ADE, but not on my Nook (just a little white square with the name of the book in it). Was there some file that should have been transferred across that wasn't? Any ideas?
Thanks!

Thank you so much for your help. I was disappointed when I was not able to transfer the downloaded book to my Nook. Your advice was right on! Many thanks.

Thank you so much for the tutorial! I was getting so frustrated because I was skipping a step- I could see the titles on my nook color in the documents tab but couldn't actually read them. My books ended up going to the Digital Editions folder in my nook but I can actually read them.
