Update II: By the little feedback, either this syncing isn't too important to people or they have mastered it. For those like me who may have had trouble, and B&N support was not profitable, I found out the solution last night while trying different steps.
I work in IT so the problem sort of makes sense. In Windows, someone else normally cannot modify a file that you are in. You have to close it for them to edit it.
So far for the Nook Color, that also seems to be the case. You have to close the book you are in, but that is not done simply by closing the eBook and going to the Library. {That's where B&N leave you.}
As you know, when you go back to that same book from the Library, it takes you where you left off. So it's not really closed per my observation. To close it for syncing you have to actually open another eBook for a brief moment. That takes the eBook you want to sync out of the loop so to speak.
Then you can go ahead and press those sync symbols - the double arrows - on your different devices, and to your joy, they will open up on the last page read.
I've tried this many times now and it works both ways. The key is not to open the book you wish synced before you open and close another book first.
I know it's odd, but it works. Probably a bug in the software as I don't know if the Kindle has this problem.
Hopefully a future update can make this more simple.
