NOOK User Guide Registering your NOOK 67
In Barnes & Noble Bookstores, you receive in-store special oers, but you cannot purchase
eBooks or periodicals until you register your NOOK. You also cannot use Read In Store to read
many eBooks in Barnes & Noble Bookstores.
Unregistering your NOOK
You should not need to unregister your NOOK. But in three cases you would want to:
If you change the email address and/or password of your BN.com account. In this case,
unregister your NOOK, then make the account changes, and then re-register your NOOK with
the new information. Read the information below about the impact of unregistration and
re-registration.
If you are giving your NOOK to a family member or friend, but do not want that person to
make purchases.
If your NOOK is lost or stolen.
If you plan to sell your NOOK, we recommend that you back up your B&N and personal content,
unregister your NOOK, and then reset your NOOK to factory settings. For more information, see
“Resetting to Factory Settings” on page 183.
Unregistering your NOOK does not delete B&N or personal content, but it does delete
other information, as explained here. Note, however, that if you re-register your NOOK,
B&N content is deleted at that point. If you want to save the B&N content, you must copy
it to a location for personal content, for example, the my documents folder or to a
supplemental microSD card if present. Before re-registering your NOOK, also back up your
B&N content to your personal computer.
