Calibre will auto add it when you pull the metadata from their site if Amazon has a ebook version. If it's not available then you need to borrow one from an Amazon ebook that is not on your Kindle.

1. If the MOBI has no ASIN, Calibre adds an ASIN that is a uniquely generate (UUID) value. 2. If the MOBI has an ASIN, Calibre leaves it as is, whether it is an Amazon ASIN, a Calibre-generated one, or any other value. If you do a conversion from any other format to MOBI, #1 above also applies. h.b. |

@Blossom, I really appreciate your help on this! I have tried that on one book and it returns two options, however neither option has the same ISBN number as when I go to Amazon's site and look it up myself.... does it matter as long as it is an ISBN number from Amazon?

There was a whole thread on this a while back. I thought that Calibre put the ASIN # in a line of the book file itself automatically.

If the ISBN extractor plugin for Calibre finds a number, will that work or does it have to be an ISBN number specific to an Amazon Kindle e-book? Or do I perform a metadata search for an Amazon ISBN after using the ISBN extractor plugin to get an ISBN from the book itself?

It needs to be Amazon specific it looks like. I'm not sure though. ![]() |

The entire process is explained step-by-step with pictures and links to the tools that are needed here:
