That's the command line I am using. I tried an earlier version of the Windows version of the programs with the same results.

Just found one additional oddity. When I use Mobipocket Creator to convert a file from PDF or rtf or anything else, and then use mobi2mobi to edit the author or title data, mobi2mobi works properly. When I try to use mobi2mobi on a file converted over from .lit format to .prc is when the problem arises. I've been using Amber Lit Converter to change .lit files over to .prc format---as noted earlier, the converted .prc files work fine until I try to edit the metadata with mobi2mobi).

I don't know whether the problem is simply with all .lit to .prc conversions or whether it's only with conversions using Amber Lit Converter to go from .lit to .prc. I don't know of another program that will do that conversion to test that theory.
