I'm confused I am running calibre version 1.36 and I do not have kepub as an output option for conversion.

Epub is not AZW nor is it mobi. They all have subsets of things they actually support. Converting between formats requires change. Read this section of the manual for more info.

Also if you have specific questions about problems with conversions this sticky is the place to start.
