Pulling a book off my Nook app

HowardBrazee · 05-29-2023, 08:33 AM

I have a book in my B&N Nook app on my iPad. I got it from B&N and didn't drag it to the app on my Mac, so Finder doesn't see it. I downloaded it instead. I'd like to get it to Calibre.

I went to the Nook web page, but it thinks I haven't bought it. My iPhone shows my progress with this book, but B&N no longer has an app for my Mac. It's an M1 Mac that can run some iPad apps, but the site won't let me download this app.

How do I get that book to Calibre?

Windows 10, the nook app, and calibre with the latest version of DeDRM.

Yeah, sorry. I'm only familiar with getting Nook books on Windows 10.

There's sites like FileHippo that have old versions of computer programs. There are likely equivalent sites that host old versions of iOS apps. But I've bever had a Mac or iPhone, so I can't name you one.

Old versions of iOS apps aren't very useful. You would need to jailbreak your iOS device to be able to install them.

Here is another site with old versions of some software. http://www.oldversion.com
