How to Install Contacts on a NOOK Color

Lend books from your Nook Color to anyone on your contact list.

A Nook Color has built-in social media and lending features that allow you to share books, your reading status and your book recommendations with your contacts. These features enable your friends to stay abreast of the content you are reading on the Nook. However, before you can share information with your contacts, you must add them to your Nook Color. You can add contacts by using the Social utility or Contacts application.

Instructions

Contacts Application

1. Tap the white "Nav" arrow at the bottom of your Nook Color's screen. The Quick Nav Bar appears at the bottom of the screen.

2. Select "Apps" in the Quick Nav Bar, then tap "Contacts."

3. Tap the "Add Contact" button, then enter the contact's full name and email address in the appropriate boxes. Select "Save" to save the contact. Tap the "Add Contact" button again to add more contacts.

Social Utility

1. Open the Quick Nav Bar, then tap "Settings." The Settings screen opens.

2. Tap "Social," then tap "Link Your Account" under "Facebook" or "Google" to import your contacts from either website.

3. Enter your email address and password in the appropriate boxes for the account you selected.

4. Tap the "Login" button if you selected Facebook. Tap the "Sign In" button, then tap "Grant Access" if you selected Google. The contacts are automatically imported into your Nook.
