up until this morning, i've had no issues purchasing an amazon kindle book, opening it in my kindle for mac app and then importing it to calibre to convert. suddenly whenever i import into calibre, it's not reading the metadata or something, and the book/file name in calibre is the random numbers and letters assigned to the original kindle file. and if i try to convert, i get an error message. from what i see in the error message, the kindle book is a KFX format. i am running the most recent version of Calibre and DeDRM. Any help would be appreciated.
calibre, version 2.78.0 (darwin, embedded-python: True)
