Configuring the Shop
Requiring Your Account Password for Purchases
By default, your NOOKcolor 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 NOOKcolor autho-
rizes a purchase. If you are sharing with your NOOKcolor with several people, you might want to require a password
for purchases to ensure that you know about and approve all purchases being made.
To configure your NOOKcolor 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 NOOKcolor’s online keyboard, then type your
password in the password field. Tap OK.
Removing the Password Requirement for Purchases
If you’ve configured your NOOKcolor to require a password for purchases and you want to be able
to purchase 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 NOOKcolor’s online keyboard, then type your
password in the password field. Tap OK.
