It's as if it isn't really connecting to your account.

If you are able, could you try a little experiment for me? Download one of your books which has DRM (through the Greasemonkey/Tampermonkey script or whatever other method you have). Then open Nook for PC, go to "my stuff", click the "add new item" button, and try to open that book. I'm curious if it will then ask for the name/credit card.
Completed these steps using the Greasemonkey script*. Yes, I was asked for the Credit Card Holder Name and the Credit Card Number. However, entering those details (using my current credit card on file) did not open the books. Rather, the entry panel repeatedly popped up asking me for the same info, after apparently not registering my entries.

Moreover, what a PITA to have to load each book separately into "My Stuff"! I'd hoped the already-downloaded and newly downloaded books would all load themselves automatically, but - despite my having set the app to download new books automatically - even those new ones didn't load.

*For those reading this exchange, the above-mentioned script and directions for installing it can be found in this post.
