Can someone help me?
If Preferences->Add books->Adding actions->Automatically convert added books to the current output format is checked, try unchecking it. And then add the AZW4 and try to convert to 'preferred output format' manually.

Conversions can take a looooong time - IIRC in one case almost 2 days!

My understanding is the most AZW4's are textbooks and they aren't much more than than a PDF in Amazon wrapping. So, you might be running into the issues covered in this Conversions sub-forum advisory thread ==>> Read this before Posting PDF Questions
