I am trying to get the latest Analog and Asimov's. I can read them on the android device but would much rather read them on a proper device, i.e. my Kobo... The B&N download folders have nothing new in them. Thanks, |

I'm so glad I read this thread. I have no trouble downloading books using Nook for PC, but haven't been able to Alf them since I updated my credit card late last year. In my case it just meant I didn't buy e-books from B&N anymore. I wonder if they have any bean counters doing a cost benefit analysis on sales lost due to their updated DRM scheme?
Spent some time yesterday downloading Nook Study, imported a book into Calibre and bang!, B&N and I are dating again Last edited by ZodWallop; 06-29-2015 at 04:44 PM. |

In any case, I tried a different (also rooted) Android device and this one worked, allowing me to download the issues and then get them onto calibre for eventual download to my Kobo. Whew! Both devices have the v4 Nook app (wish I'd kept the old one) but behave differently. One is a Nexus 7 with Android 5 and the other (working one) a Nexus 4 with Cyanogenmod 12.1. Anyway, I'm up to date on both Analog and Asimov's. I cannot believe how difficult Dell make it to read their magazines... |

B&N just made a major update to their website, and the Nook Library section is all changed and the greasemonkey script no longer works. Who knows, it may change again, since there's currently no way to read previously purchased books from the website.

What's that banging I hear? Methinks it's the final nail going into B&N's coffin.

Silly me thought that bookstores were supposed to sell things that people can use!
Can I take it Nook Study/for PC no longer downloads books? |

Shari Edit to add: Well, I just went to www.barnesandnoble.com and couldn't get anywhere. I kept getting redirected to a page asking me to put in my email address to "Be in the Know. Sign up for savings, news, updates." No matter what I put in the box I get an error telling me that it's an invalid email. I'll try later, if I have time. I tried in both IE and Firefox, and the same thing happened in both browsers. Last edited by shalym; 06-30-2015 at 04:44 PM. |
