I gave up and e-mailed my problem.

This is the 2nd time I have waited almost 24 hours for a Nook book to process for download. Money is in my account, so what is the problem? Have only ordered 3 books from B&N in total.

1st 24 hour order was on Dec 21st. Ordered again last night at 12:34am, Jan 4, and it is still not ready for download.

My husband has a Kindle and has no problem getting his books. Mine was a gift from a relative, but am now ready to sell it and go get a Kindle. Anyone want a used Nook for $1.95?

But my sis-in-law is happy and went into B&N and got help and downloaded books and all is well. I finally got most of my downloaded books to appear, since I’m a cheapskate and only did free books no harm no foul.
Thanks NookTalk for the suggestions about ADE I’ll try to put them into use soon.
I keep telling myself I can do this, but I’m still going to hang on to my stack of paper books just in case.(smile)

I am having no problems. I have downloaded free BN books, library books using Adobe, and some other free books and short stories. All without a hitch. You may need to look around on the nook and fond them, sometimes they appear in odd places.

It wiped out all my downloaded books. I am now having issues trying to get the books downloaded again. Should be easy right… hmmm… not….. Why would they do an upgrade 2 days after Christmas when people have just been give the Nook as a Christmas gift!
