So I finally gave up and took everyone's advice. I used DeDRM plugin for Calibre, and finally got it working.

So then I tried sending to my iPad (using Calibre Companion and wireless connection), and that worked as well. But when I try to "Read" the now DeDRM'd book from Companion, it asks me where I want to send it, and when I choose my Kindle App which is where I would like to read it, I get an error mesage: "Incompatible Document Type".

I have tried sending the original AZW3 file, and I tried converting to EPUB and to MOBI first. I was able to make the conversion, but I'm not sure how to send the converted version as opposed to the original to the device using Companion.

On the other hand, I don't understand why it does not understand the AZW3 format as that is its format.

Any further help would be appreciated.
