I'm having problems with a NookHD. It keeps freezing. It also doesn't remember bookmarks. If a page is bookmarked, the next time the book opens, it opens to the first/title page. Have had the device for less than a year. It just started doing these things recently, within the past few weeks. Any suggestions on how to fix these problems?

Can you try a hard reset? I've had mine for about a year too and haven't had this issue myself. Also did you check if it's all books or certain ones/formats? I hope things can get fixed.
I understand your frustration! My nook hd+ has done this from the beginning. I have even had it replaced and still have problems. I was told to do a hard reset, to deregister and register again, take off all the apps, and none of these worked for me.... I now only take it to work with me and remember the page number but do most of my reading on the iPad I got so I could read my nook books, and kindle books.
Brittany, mine does that occasionally too. I read somewhere if you go through your library to get to the book it picks up where you left off. It worked for me. I also read it could have something to do with the book. I always turn mine off and restart it and go through my library. When it doesn't work it seems to fix its self within a few days.
Do you have a external memory card in it? I had issues with mine, the book showed as one thing but when opened it was a different book. I took the memory card out & waited a minute then put it back in and everything was fine.
Lately I've been having battery issues with my Nook HD+ For some reason whenever I take my Nook off of the charger, every once in awhile (although it has been happening more frequently) I also get a message box that tells me my battery is "critically low" and that I need to charge it. But once I stick my charge back in the Nook then it registers the fact that I have full power. WTF?! Is this happening to anyone else?
Also a couple of times my Nook has powered down on me. At random times with full or half battery usage. Once I was purchasing or rather trying to purchase a book and the other times I was online or reading and then BAM the screen goes black and the Nook is powered down. And everytime I have to wait at least 15 minutes before it will power back up. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what may be causing these issues for me?
Turtlefrog, this has been happening to me for several months. I took it in to the store and there was not much they could do other than give me a new charger. They recommended calling Nook support but I haven't gotten around to it. My fix is to just keep it plugged in all the time at this point. A bit inconvenient but most of the time it is doable for me. I don't seem to have the problem when I am in airplane mode just reading a book (as opposed to connected to the internet using apps or reading email, etc.)
