ADE will not recognize the nook unless it's opened after the nook has been attached.

Once the file has been transfered to the nook select check for new content.

If you look at your nook file directory in the finder you'll notice a new folder named "Digital Editions" files from ADE must be in that folder to open properly.

This didn't work for me. Nothing has. I cannot get ADE to see the nook. I've tried doing things in different orders, deleting/renaming folders, everything. ADE does not see that my nook is plugged in. I'm going nuts! Does anyone have any other advice for a mac user?

Hi silverwolff

I also had the annoying problem of it not being recognised.

My solution was the same as j-dickson.

Plug in nook first and make sure it appears as a drive on your desktop
Open the nook folder and see if you have a Digital Editions folder
Delete the Digital Editions folder (or if it contains stuff you want to keep drag it onto your desktop)
Now open Adobe Digital Editions, you should get the 'do you want to authorise' message or a nook icon on the left hand side.
If not have a look at http://forums.adobe.com/message/2866016 where a guy had similar problems, about half way down it points out that one file may be hidden to mac users as it begins with a '.'.

Have a look
