Hi,
I need to deauthorize an old account from digital editions, so that I am able to authorize a new one to use library books. The problem is, this account is my old college email that I no longer have access to and I do not know the password to deauthorize because it is something I set up a decade ago! Please help. This is also on a Mac. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, resetting my Nook. I don't know what else to do, short of buying a new computer!
