An ACSM file is a tiny authorization file that allows you to download an ebook that is encrypted for use with Adobe Digital Editions... usually an epub or pdf.
An MBP file is a companion file for MOBI (AZW) books that keeps track of info like bookmarks, highlights and stuff.
So basically... don't try to convert ACSM or MBP files. They're not ebooks.
Ah ha - thanks Diap.

So the ACSM will be in my Adobe p'raps ?
I shall rush and root around....

Oh - and the AZW might need to be checked by some....cleaning apparatus? or somesuch ?
Which my Calibre cleaner isn't doing now ?

[ God, this is being in the CIA and MI6.... ]

And believe or not, I now understand the MBP thing, thanks for that too, and I've acted accordingly.
