Barnes & Noble NOOK User Guide 59
Transferring Files from B1$ to Your NOOK
You can transfer files, including EPUB files, PDFs, and photos from your personal computer to your NOOK.
NOTE: Transferring files from your personal computer to your NOOK is called “sideloading.”
To transfer files from your 1$ to your NOOK, do this:
1. Using the custom micro-USB cable provided with your NOOK, connect your NOOK to your personal com-
puter.
NOTE: Use only the micro-USB cable provided with your NOOK. Using any other cable might damage your
NOOK.
2. When you connect your NOOK to your personal computer, your NOOK will appear as a new disk drive called
“NOOK” on your personal computer. Drag the files you want to transfer onto the “NOOK” drive.
NOTE: If you connect your NOOK to a Windows PC, the PC might display a dialog box asking if you want to
install a driver for a “Nook.” Click Cancel to close this dialog box. You do not need to install a special
driver to transfer files to your NOOK.
3. To organize the files, open the “NOOK” drive. You’ll see several folders on your NOOK. Move your personal
files in the My Files folder.
4. When you have finished arranging files, eject the “NOOK” drive from your personal computer to unmount the
NOOK file system.
5. Disconnect the micro-USB cable.
