Thanks, Tracy for finding the fix and sharing it here. It worked for me too.

I was good last night.  Hooray!  You’re right; it really became clear to me how much I use the reader every day, and how much I enjoy sitting down for an hour or so before bed and reading.

I have changed my settings, and I am looking forward to reading my book before I go to bed. I will let you know the outcome.

People on the Reader list think there’s some problem with the Humanware update server that’s causing the Reader to shut down, so turning off automatic update solves the issue by not checking the server. 

NLS says they’re hoping for an update in a month or so.

Thanks, Tracy. I’m having the same problem. I’ll try your fix. This bug has shown me how deeply the EReader is woven into my life. I’m really bummed without it. I too read in the evening. With me, it’s just before I go to bed.

I was going crazy the last couple days because my reader was shutting down every few minutes.  There’s talk on the reader list that the problem can be solved by going to settings and turning off automatic update.  I’ve just done this, so we’ll see.  The problem seems to happen in the evening, so I won’t know until then. 

So, if others are having the same problem, that’s the possible fix.
