I'm using calibre and has several books there. I'm trying to move them into the Fire with USB.
I've send them to the device memory card but they aren't shown in the kindle books app. Do I need to refresh the list of books on the device?

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 don't use Google books. I use the Nook app and there is a folder in the SD card. In that folder there is a folder for books. You should look for a folder for the Google books app and just copy your ebooks into that folder.
I have only been able to sync books if I brought them through google. from pc to tablet. but if you have books I'm sure you can put it on your SD card

File Format
Books on Google Play are stored in the cloud, so if you plan to read on the web using your computer, tablet, or on your phone, there is no file to download and you can read ebooks directly within the browser or application. If you plan to read using an eReader, you should learn more about the available ePub and PDF file formats, and how to transfer ebook files onto your eReader device.
A small number of ebooks may not be enabled for download to your eReader due to limits set by the publisher; those ebooks will display an alert message ("No download files included") before you purchase or get the ebook.

I'm sure you can work a way to reverse it :laugh:
I just received my new Kindle Fire HD 7 inches. I am desperately trying to copy my movie files (avi, mpeg, mkv) from PC to the KFHD. I earlier had a Kindle Fire and had no problems copying these files. I managed to copy all the e-books and 3rd party apk apps, however having problems with the movies. I am pretty ignorant with usage of these tablets so appreciate if someone would help me out. Much appreciated. Thanks.
If you don't have root access, sideload the MX Player:
http://www.1mobile.com/mx-player-95964.html
Then USB hook your KFHD to your PC and do a simple file transfer (copy & paste) from your computer to a folder on the kindle
IF your PC don't recognize your KFHD (the xp desktop i have a home do not no matter how hard i try) you can transfer the files via Wi-Fi using ES explorer or you can upload them to your amazon cloud drive and then download them to your kindle.
hope it helps.
Mx player play all files try it no root need it

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!
I spoke with B&N tech support and was told that it is impossible to sideload ebooks to my nook. In the past, this was evidently possible. One of the reasons I bought the Nook was to be able to create a sideloaded library. Is it possible to sideload ebooks purchased from B&N or are there other ebooks that may be purchased that can be sideloaded.

You should be able to connect your Nook HD to your PC over USB and copy over your ebooks (e.g., epub files) to one of your user media content folders.

Does your Nook show up in Windows Explorer when you connect it to the PC via USB?

It is possible to sideload book's purchased from b and n if you remove the drm. google remove drm on nook books i would post a link but im not allowed to yet. i can also try to help.
For eBooks that you have already and are trying to add to your nook, i would try calibre. It's easy to send books to devices using it
