Configuring the Shop
Requiring Your Account Password for Purchases
By default, your NOOK asks you to confirm all purchases by tapping a Confirm button.
If you like, you can require that your NOOK (or BN.com) account password be entered before your NOOK
authorizes a purchase. If other people might have access to your NOOK, you might want to require a password for
purchases to ensure that you know about and approve all purchases being made.
To configure your NOOK to require a password for purchases, do this:
1. On the Settings screen, tap
Shop
.
2. Tap the line reading
Require Password for Purchases
. (NOTE: If the checkbox on the line appears bold, rather
than grayed out, this configuration option has already been turned on, and you do not need to tap on it.)
A dialog box appears, prompting you to enter your password.
3. Tap on the password field in the dialog box to call up your NOOK’s online keyboard. Type your password,
and tap
OK
.
Removing the Password Requirement for Purchases
If you’ve configured your NOOK to require a password for purchases and you want to be able to pur-
chase an item in the Shop without entering your password, do this:
1. On the Settings screen, tap
Shop
.
2. Tap the line reading
Require Password for Purchases
.
A dialog box appears, prompting you to enter your password.
3. Tap on the password field in the dialog box to call up your NOOK’s online keyboard. Type your password,
and tap

already assigned a credit card to your account, you will see a button reading
Change Card

3. Tap the
Change Card
or
New Card
button.
Your NOOK displays a credit card form.
