Problems with OverDrive & library?

KDinFLA · 09-22-2011, 03:05 AM

For a while now, I've been enjoying downloading library books directly to my Novel using OverDrive. We have cards from several libraries, and I've been able to d/l from all of them. Both ePub and MP3 audiobooks were available to my Novel.

As of Wed, though, I'm getting a message that ePub books and MP3 books, as well as Kindle books, are NOT available to d/l directly. This is happening on all my library sites. I'm running the latest version of OverDrive for Android.

Wonder if the new Kindle/library interaction affected other formats? Anyone else having a problem, or is it just me?

What are you talking about? You "Devices" says "None."

Are you talking about a novel you wrote? is Novel an android device? How are you checking out books? There were some issues noted in other threads about checking out KINDLE books using a portable device...

What am I talking about? Huh, I suppose I wasn't clear enough.

I'm now having trouble downloading directly from library sites to my Pandigital Novel (and yes, it is an Android device), using OverDrive. Not a novel I've written, but published books in ePub format.

And thanks for the heads up about listing my ereader in my profile.

If this is a change in behavior then it is very likely due to the change in OverDrive -- e.g. adding Kindle books.

Not sure I can be any additional help other than to ask in the pandigital and/or kindle forums and perhaps check with pandigital support.
