Nook for Android app on CM7 (on SD) won't sync?

Nook newbie here:
I am using the latest CM7 for nook color, running off SD card. I can install the Nook android app, sign in, but my books don't show up. Anyone have a similar experience? Or know how to fix this? I tried searching the forums, but couldn't find any info.
I have tried a reinstall, and also have run fix_permissions.
Thanks in advance!
Any ideas?
I solved my own problem, so here's the solution in case anyone has a similar experience:
Cleared all data, cache and then moved app to sd. (Even though CM7 is on sd, it seems to fix it if you "move app to sd"). Signed in again, and there were all my books. Case closed.
Nook app not syncing...
Sorry, but what do you mean you moved the app to the SD card. Thought that was where it was installed.
I am having the same proble, tried everything to fix it, but still cannot see any of my books or mags...
When I log onto the Nook app for android, I don't see books or magazines I purchased at first.
If I take the SD card out and boot into the standard Nook interface, the books and magazines are there.
If I then go back into the Android OS, the Nook app now has the books and magazines (I would have to download them a 2nd time, though)

Nook app on CM7 not working...?

Hello all...
I picked up a Nook Color this evening and followed these steps to get CM 7.0.3 on it...
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Barnes_&_Noble_Nook_Color:_Full_Update_Guide
Everything android-wise is working great. I even have the kindle app and google book app running, but to my dismay, the Nook app won't work properly...
If I go into LIBRARY and download any of the 9 books in there...it will error out...if I search for books that my girlfriend can search for using her nook color on the out-of-the-box software my nook can't find it, but hers can...
I see people with thunderbolts complaining in the comments in market that it won't work on their phone, but I'm hoping there is some way to get this working on the Nook Color running CM 7.0.3.
Thanks!
Maybe this will help:

Please let us know. I need the Nook App working if I decide to go CM7.
These are the instructions linked to in that thread:

I'm not sure if running off the SD card makes a difference, but I'm running CM7 7.0.3 off SD card and just bought and downloaded a couple of books last night in the Nook app without a problem.
Are the partitions managed differently when running CM7 from EMMC vs SD card? Sounds like the app is having problems placing the (downloaded) file..

Have plenty of free space, but B&N Apps say there isn't enough. What gives?

Just as the title states. This is only a problem when installing / downloading from the B&N market, and only for apps. Books and magazines are fine. Any ideas?
Also, where are the books and magazines stored? I'm on a manual nootered Nook color (1.3).
Same issue, well very similar, anything I try to install says there is no space. I am still trying to figure out what partition the CM7 android system uses as the "system" drive for installing apps and such.
wonder if you could use an app to move your already installed apps to your SD card, Have not updated to 1.3 yet. may have the option to move apps to sd card under the manage applications menu if there is one.

[Q] succeful rooted nook color but has some questions

hello i just bought a nook color yestarday, and rooted it this morning succufuly, my only problem/ concern is will the root stay active in my tablet if there is a new update? i rooted the phone using a youtube vedio, everything worked good but in the vedio the person said root honeycomb? i have read that the root honeycomb isnt good? also is this stable for future use? i used nooter 4.6.16 and CWM 3.0.2.8 thanks!
Short answer: You'll want to block future OTA updates from B&N, lest they break root. You can always upgrade after you're sure everything will work with a new version.
What version of B&N firmware are you running? Are you able to download content from B&N and apps from the Android Market?
also can reformat the sd card and put it back in the nook? the files in the sd card is nooter and the 6 files of the IMG
1.2.0 device, i can download from the android market, so far angry birds, ebay, es file manager, fourshared work, i havent tried the B&N market but livewallpapers do notwork

You can, but it can be handy for troubleshooting and fixing things. I'd suggest a 2nd card.
Ok then ill buy a 2nd sd card thanks

[Q] Accessing media on internal storage

I hacked a pair of NC's for my kids for Christmas, running Mirage CM7 (seemed the most stable, but I could be wrong). I was planning on waiting a bit on the micro SD's and just running off of the 1GB internal memory, but I can't access the songs I put there. Every time I try to pull up the music player or MX player or gallery, it tells me "No SD card".
Well, no duh...
My question is, is there a setting that will allow me to access the internal storage until I'm able to get a couple SD's? Or should I upgrade to CM10? Also, the reboot SD for the Nook Tablet has a neat little repartitioning affect, got me another 6 or 7GB when I used it to install CM10 there---does the NC have a similar repartitioning tool?
Thanks in advance

Yes there is an option to use internal memory. I don't remember the exact menu since I have not used CM7 in a while. But go to settings, cyanogenmod settings, applications, and choose use internal memory. Or something like that. It swaps emmc and sdcard so that apps think internal media is sdcard.

Excellent! Does that mean, though, that I have to swap it back over when I do get the SD cards?
Also, does CM10 on the NC not have to worry about that?

Yes, unless you want to keep it that way. Your new card will show as emmc then.
CM10 has not implemented that yet. And it would have the same problem. Some apps would not run without an SD present.
