Kindle DRM is specific to each app or device and books cannot just be copied from one to another even if they belong to the same Amazon account. DRM removal is needed to make that possible, so it is likely that something is going wrong with DRM removal during import of the books into calibre.

Assistance with DRM removal is not allowed here on MobileRead. I suggest asking for help at either Apprentice Alf's Blog or Apprentice Harper's GitHub.
DRM removal is not working because the DeDRM plugin is not yet fully converted to work with Calibre 5.
