Words cannot express my relief; it finally worked, by the simple act of placing single quotes around the PID in the command line version. Thank you, llasram, for your help in that corner, and thank you, pdurrant, for your offer of help; I tried running your script on my mac and putting single quotes around the PID when the box popped up, but unfortunately that didn't work. But, most importantly ... I got my book, and I can now buy mobi books and be able to read them on my Sony 500, despite owning an ibook.
Ah, the overwhelming sense of relief. I feel like a nice cup of tea and a read.
