Understood and yes I have the 'tools', but when I click on 'download' nothing happens.

Just out of curiosity, do you happen to be using Firefox with either the EPUBReader or Lucifox plugin active?

Because if you do and try to download a B&N-DRM book, then it silently fails because the plugin tries to load any epub into its own library instead of asking/saving to disk, but can't because of the DRM.

Even if that's not the case, you might get better results by using the old NOOKstudy program to download your books*, even though it'll take longer since it insists on fetching and syncing your entire NOOK library catalogue.

* Sometimes the B&N servers time out your login cookies or whatever after 15-20 minutes when downloading directly via the website and cuts you off in the middle. So NOOKstudy might end up being the only way to get a very large file if you've a relatively slow connection which can't grab 700+ megs within that time limit, as I've found out.

Do you possible use Firefox with Adblock or Ghostery enabled? B&N buttons won't work unless you allow trackers to count your click! I can't remember which one it was, but I had to turn off one of those on the B&N website for the Download button to work.

Thanks to all for your help. Rebooting the computer may have solved the problem. BTW, I use IE, but this morning still had a devil of a time logging onto B&N, but eventually the 'download' button worked and I got the expected 'save as' query.
Now all loaded into Calibre and all is well. Don't know what the problem was but OK now ;-)

$1.99 price drop at Amazon and B&N. So far hasn't dropped at Kobo, Google, etc.

Howl's Moving Castle (Howl's Castle Book 1) by Diana Wynne Jones
Quote:
Sophie has the great misfortune of being the eldest of three daughters, destined to fail miserably should she ever leave home to seek her fate. But when she unwittingly attracts the ire of the Witch of the Waste, Sophie finds herself under a horrid spell that transforms her into an old lady. Her only chance at breaking it lies in the ever-moving castle in the hills: the Wizard Howl's castle. To untangle the enchantment, Sophie must handle the heartless Howl, strike a bargain with a fire demon, and meet the Witch of the Waste head-on. Along the way, she discovers that there's far more to Howl—and herself—than first meets the eye.

Battlefield Earth: A Saga of the Year 3000 by L. Ron Hubbard has dropped to $2.99 at
Amazon | Kobo | (not at B&N or Google so far)
Quote:
Suspense, politics, war, humor and intergalactic finance. A towering masterwork of science fiction adventure and one of the best-selling science fiction novels of all time, L. Ron Hubbard's Battlefield Earth opens with breathtaking scope on an Earth dominated for 1,000 years by an alien invader and man is an endangered species. From the handful of surviving humans a courageous leader emerges Jonnie Goodboy Tyler, who challenges the invincible might of the alien Psychlo empire in a battle of epic scale, danger and intrigue with the fate of the Earth and of the universe in the tenuous balance.

Kobo has it also. At $0.99.

http://store.kobobooks.com/en-US/ebook/stars-empire

However, Kobo charges $1.09 AUD for Australian's, as they illegally add the GST after telling you the price. In Australia, the price is supposed to include the GST.

It was $1.99 all day yesterday, unfortunately I didn't run across the deal until last night. It's currently $2.24 at Google.
