I have been backing up to removable storage too.

No K4PC involved. I use Calibre for library management and my Calibre library is backed up. I removed DRM as the books are imported into Calibre but I also keep DRM'd versions as well.
Ah!! I also remove the DRM and backup my Calibre. On your DRM'd versions as well, do you download to computer for transfer to the Kindle then?

Edit: Just read your edit. Are you saying you cannot 'free' your books without downloading to k4pc.


Quote:
Nope, I just use Calibre.
So do you import another copy of the book into Calibre with the DRM also.

As HarryT says, just go to the page and either use the menu to remove the bookmark or press alt+b (that toggles the bookmark on and off).
Will have to play with this feature more.

Thanks,
