New to Calibre and this whole DRM thing. Just trying to move books from Kindle App on my MacBook (running Mountain Lion). I have spent most of the day searching various places for help but am not successful thus far. I am running most up to date Calibre. I can't seem to get the book files from the Kindle App to move. I have gone to Kindle/Preferences/Content Folder/Change and tried to drag the BOOCBYQ5C_EBOK line to the Calibre App and Calibre Icon. No joy. I must be missing something simple, but it's been about 6 hours so far....begging for help..Linda
