Does this happen with ebooks from B&N?

How to tell whether your book is in fact Adobe ADEPT-encrypted (Mac)
Copy the original e-book file, putting the new copy on your Desktop, so that you are not working with the original file. (If you option-drag the file to the Desktop, you'll get a new copy of the file on the Desktop.) Then change the filename extension of the copied file on the Desktop from whatever it was originally to .zip. You can do that by doing Get Info on the copied file on the Desktop (shortcut: command-I) and editing the extension in the Name & Extension field. You will then click "Use .zip" in the dialog box that comes up to confirm your intention. Also, still in the Get Info window, set "Open with:" to the Mac's Archive Utility. (Do not click on "Change All ... " unless you want any double-clicked ZIP archive to use this utility.) Now close the Get Info window.
Once you have the .zip extension on the copied file and have the file set to open in Archive Utility, double-click the file. You should see the ZIP file expand into a new folder on your Desktop. The new folder's name reflects the name of your book. Open that folder. In it should be a META-INF folder. Open it. In the META-INF folder should be a file called rights.xml. Open it in TextEdit (best way: drag its icon to the TextEdit icon on the dock). The very first line of the rights.xml file should look something like this:
HTML Code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<adept:rights xmlns:adept="http://ns.adobe.com/adept">
<licenseToken xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/adept">
If it looks nothing like that, then almost certainly your book is not ADEPT-encrypted!
