Exclamation Error with Calibre

Hi...I am totally new with all this...so I will try to explain the best I can. I have the pRS 505 and, as I live out of the US, was trying to convert one book I bought from Mobipocket Ebook Store to LRF format, but I got one error. The error was the following:

MobiError: Cannot extract content from a DRM protected ebook
Failed to perform job: Convert book:lostdukeofwynd_97807C10E610
Detailed traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "parallel.py", line 139, in run_job
File "calibre\ebooks\lrf\any\convert_from.pyo", line 161, in main
File "calibre\ebooks\lrf\any\convert_from.pyo", line 134, in process_file
File "calibre\ebooks\lrf\mobi\convert_from.pyo", line 28, in process_file
File "calibre\ebooks\lrf\mobi\convert_from.pyo", line 17, in generate_html
File "calibre\ebooks\mobi\reader.pyo", line 155, in extract_content
MobiError: Cannot extract content from a DRM protected ebook
Log:

What should I do to resolve this problem?
Thanks in advance

I think that your error was to buy a DRM'd mobi book.

We are not allowed to give you advice on how to break the Mobipocket DRM.
It would be better to buy books in LIT format, which is easier to convert.

Did you downconvert it with convertlit so it is still a single file lit book?

Hm. Yes I did, it made a single file..That's interesting. Should I redownload, or would that be a convertLIT issue with it not making ch 5

Actually, it may be a fictionwise problem. . . it seems there is no chapter 5 at all in the book.

Thanks for your help!
