I am not sure what you mean. The Kindle app cannot download books unless it is signed in.
If you are downloading copies using the Download & Transfer function of Amazon's website then you must have selected a Kindle device or Fire tablet as the intended destination. If so that download will usually be locked to that particular device using DRM. Assuming that you own a Kindle and not a Fire tablet then that downloaded copy can be used for converting in calibre, assuming that is your intent. Kindle for PC is not needed for that.
If you just want to read on your PC and not convert you can use a newer version of Kindle for PC instead. There is even a more functional Kindle app available from the Microsoft Store for Windows 11 that is equivalent to Kindle for Android. |
I like to convert and save my books in calibre
As it helps me know which I have bought before and read.
I have been known to buy a book twice by accident, as find that covers and titles change such a lot.For the same book!
I am wary of using kindle for pc as it may make me unable to convert
But dont understand why an older version is refusing to let me sign in after uprading pc
It is just refusing my amazon password everytime I try...daily
Meaning I have to create yet another one daily to sign into amazon online
Am really stuck!
