Title pretty much says it all. I have a bunch of .mobi books I would like to read on my Captivate, and both the Kindle app and the AEPReader don't seem to work. Thanks.
I had my whole library in .mobi format from my winmo phones. When I switched to android, I couldn't find a decent reader4 that could usae them. I just downloaded calibre and converted all of them to .epub and imported them into Aldiko reader.
Worked out fine for me. Aldiko is a nice reader.

For anybody who has used either, is there any disadvantage to using PDF Viewer over Adobe Reader? As mentioned in another post, our Arias do not have much internal storage and without Froyo we cannot officially put Apps onto our SDs. So I'm just wondering if PDF Viewer is adequate for reading PDF files online or if Adobe Reader has other advantages that is worth taking up 4MB of internal space?
Anyone know of an eBook Reader for Adobe DRM PDFs? I tried using txtr, which seemed the most promising as it asks for an Adobe ID. It doesn't seem to work and I've tried all the suggestions of using the ADE on the PC to open the file on the tablet first, or upload to txtr.com and download.
I also tried Aldiko, which was listed in the Adobe Digital Editions compatible Ebook readers page, yet had no place to put in the Adobe ID.
Has anyone been successful in getting this to working on any reader? I'm trying to read Adobe DRM PDFs from the library.
I know Roebeet was working on the Pandigital Novel before this. Roebeet, is there an app that can be harvested from the firmware that could enable DRM PDFs?
Adobe EPub files work with Overdrive Media Console
Our Library uses the Overdrive service for eBooks. The marketplace has their new V2 Overdrive Media Console app which allows you to download ePub books directly to the Android. It's still uses a browser for your logins/checkouts but after choosing to download the Overdrive Media Console takes over and it's downloaded directly into the App.
So, this is an Android only, computer free mobile solution for Adobe DRM ePub files only, the pdfs still aren't supported by the Overdrive App. Too bad all books aren't offered in ePub format.
Where are the epub books stored in the NC? I checked out a few books and can see them in Adobe Digital Editions, but can't transfer them to my NC because my macbook isn't recognizing my NC when it's plugged in.
Help?
I am having problems with the default B&N reader app. When I first got my NC, I used put an ebook in the sdcard/My Files/Books folder. Then I clicked on it via the reader app and all was fine.
Now, when I try to sideload ANY epub file, I get the error message:
"Sorry, cannot open this book"
This happens with both native epub files and files I convert with Calibre.
Am I doing something wrong in Calibre or did something change?
I should note that Aldiko and moon+ both recognize and display the ebook just fine.
My Nook is running software 2.2.1 and I use the Nova Launcher.
I can copy books from my PC to the Nook. However, when I go into Library they appear under My Files. I can open them from there.
However, If I try a Refresh it doesn’t put them into my Books folder within Library. I can open the books (pdf or epub) from My Files but I want them on Books, so that I can copy them into my own Shelves (it’s not possible to copy from My Files to a Shelf). Can anyone let me know how I can do this?
I know I could use Aldiko or Calibre but I like the Nook reader app and want to keep the Nook as standard as possible.

I've found the solution, should anyone have the same problem. I added the books (pdf and epub) into Calibre. I then copied the books from the Calibre folder to the Nook and they appear in Books!
