I just purchased the ipad 2 after previously owning the nook color. I tried to read one my magazine subscriptions last night on the ipad but i got a message saying this item is not supported. Can nook's emagazines be viewed on ipad? I am debating on cancelling all of my magazine subscriptions via nook obviously if i can't read them on the ipad...where do people get magazines for ipad?

Have you tried the free app called "Barnes & Noble Nook for iPad" ??

You can get it on the apps store.

Yes I have the nook app. All my previously purchased content shows up there but can't read the magazines.

You may want to contact B&N support to get some assistance with that. They should work (unless the specific subscriptions indicate they are not support on iOS).

Be forwarned - reports are rather negative concerning B&N support for the iPad app.

Apple's guidelines state that they must get 30% of all subscription sales through the app store. Of course B&N doesn't want that!

As an alternative, you can find magazine subscriptions with the Zinio app.
