You can purchase the kindle versions of books on amazon and pretty easily get them onto your nook. Basically you download the amazon kindle desktop reading app, download the books you want to your pc, and find the folder that they are in. Then you download a free and very popular e-book library management program called calibri and a plugin for it that lets it decrypt kindle files. All you have to do from there is go into calibri's settings and point it to the kindle directory on your pc and it will import them and you can put them onto your nook using the calibri interface. There are guides out there that lay it all out and have screenshots, so literally anyone can do it, and calibri is worth having for anyone with a serious e-book collection anyway as you can tag books with all sorts of info to help you find them easier.

I want to bump this thread. I got a Nook Color for Christmas. But I learned very quickly that B&N; is no Amazon.(I had no previous experience with B&N;) I do not like B&N.; Their site is disorganized and less friendly, imo, and everything is much pricier, with a more limited selection. So I ordered a CyanongenMod 7.0.3 - OPTIMIZED - 8GB SD card. I amhoping this will save me. I would like to hear from any others who have used this method to keep fromfalling out of love with the Nook.I just want to browse Amazon and order Amazon Books easily with my Nook.

Hello J, I installed the Nook app and it seems to work. I did not try any enhanced or animated books because I don't have any. I can stream other things, like ESPN, so the enhanced or animated books should work. I hope that helps.

Your barnes and noble nook account is separate from the machine itself. So yes. if you log onto your new nook and put in your information from your nook account, all of your books should be there. The staff at b&n; are very good about assisting with set up.

I have no idea. I've been very happy with the Nook, but there are some books that have been formatted only for the Kindle, and are copy-protecyed that I can't run them through Calibre, so I'm considering getting a table that I -lnow- can read btth formats.

Thank you Alan. I will have to try that out. I ended up getting a Nook from B&N.; I was able to go into the store and play around with one which made me feel better about buying it. I know that there are some books on Kindle that I'm going to try and convert.

As of now, accessing the Google Play store will allow the user to download a Kindle reading app, and thus also have those books on the Nook. Of course, this does not provide exactly the same reading experience (user interface) as reading on the Kindle itself. Additionally, for anyone who wants the Nook to behave like a standard Android tablet, there is the option of a company called AFN (Android for Nook). They provide software (downloadable or on a micro SC card that gives users a couple different options, one of which is to be able to boot into either Android or the Nook's original OS.

You should try to register your device through the device. Open kindle app on your device and go through the options to register or signin. You will put in your amazon userid and password. When you finish this process you will have registered your device.. To validate go to amazon website and manage my kindle option to verify that your device is registered. Just by putting in your serial number amazon has no way of locating your dvice.. So you should register through your device. Once your device is registered then you can buy kindle books from either the device or from the web site.

The books are saved to the Kindle cloud. If I'm remembering correctly, the new Kindle is registered to the account where the old one was registered and you just activate the new Kindle. The old one is unregistered when you send it to Amazon.

Hi Kate, Yes we do. 1) You must purchase on Amazon, look for "More Buying Choices" to view the new and used listings. 2) Locate the item sold by Blue Nook (without Fulfillment by Amazon) and we can ship internationally. 3) Select "Add to Cart" from the Blue Nook listing that has international rates available. Kind regards, Terry

I went on otterbox's website and so far they only have the tablet, color, or regular nook. I would think they will be making one since they have a section just for Barnes and noble.

You just need to download the Kindle app from the Google Play store. Then you can download your books.

It works both ways. There are e-books available at B&N that aren't available on Amazon. I just downloaded the fitness book "Better Than Steroids" on my Nook Color. It's not available here. I notice that every once and a while. Some are only on Amazon, some are only on B&N.

Hi I don't have a nook so I don't know but I thought I saw an answer to that . Go to questions and answers you might find what you are looking for.
