The bad news is, the other book I tried to convert was a total fail - got messages saying that the DRM needed to be removed. Which is weird, since it (the DRM-stripping/conversion plug in, which operates automatically after being installed in Calibre) worked perfectly on another book.

I'm guessing the partial solution to this problem may be that no DRM-stripping (or De-DRM'ing) plugin or App is 100 % successful; apprently they work on some files....but not others.

But at least I've gotten the Plugin downloaded, installed & working.

Just thought I'd report this. CHEERS everyone, and thanks for the suggestions and comments.

That's odd. I had been in the habit of converting all my books to mobi format as soon as I purchased them, but have slipped out of doing it on a regular basis. However, after reading your post, I converted three recent purchases and has no problem.

Perhaps some kind soul will contact you privately with a solution (it can't be done publicly as detailed instructions for DRM removal are forbidden at MobileRead).
