ebook won't stay in library

[BrenVA]

So I downloaded ADE, spent two days getting it to recognize my nook, and was finally able to move some of my books over. Then I downloaded an epub book directly from a publisher. It opened in ADE. I was able to read it on my computer. However, if I closed ADE or went to ADE's library, it was not there. The only way I can read it once I've left it is to download it again every time I come to my computer. And I'd prefer to have it on my nook, as I don't care to read lenthly things on the computer. Can anyone help me?

I've run across this a few times when I was trying to download a book.

Hopefully, you're having the same problem I had, because the fix is

relatively easy.

What happened to me was that I OPENED the ebook when I was in the process of

downloading it from the website. This brought the ebook down, but ADE

displayed it in Reading mode. When I stopped reading the ebook, and exited

ADE, the next time I came back, ADE defaulted to Library mode - and the book

wasn't there. I found that if I switched to Reading mode, I could continue

to read the ebook.

The 'fix' was to add the ebook to the library via ADE's Library mode. To do

this, I had to know where the ebook was located on my computer. I clicked

on the drop-down box next to the word 'Library', and then clicked on 'Add

Item To Library'. ADE showed me ebooks in the Adobe Digital Editions

folder, and all I had to do was highlight the title I wanted and then click

on 'Open'.

I modified my approach from that point on. When I'm downloading an ebook, I

SAVE it. ADE then puts the ebook in my Library.

Hope this helps you!
