Barnes & Noble BNRV300 manual Configuring the Shop, Requiring Your Account Password for Purchases

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 Barnes & Noble 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, then type your pass- word in the password field. 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, then type your pass- word in the password field. Tap OK.

Clearing Your WishList

If you have added any items to the WishList on your NOOK and now want to clear your WishList, tap the Clear WishList menu button.

If you have not added any items to your WishList, this menu choice appears grayed out.

Clearing the List of Recently Viewed Items

Your NOOK keeps track of the items you have viewed recently in the Shop. To clear this list, tap the Clear Recently Viewed List menu choice.

If you have not viewed any items in the Shop, yet, this menu choice appears grayed out.
