Hello, I'm very new to this so apologies if this is a daft question! I've bought a book for my kobo, opened it and saved it to ADE library, have pulled it into Calibre but it won't open or convert as it says it's still DRM protected. What am I doing wrong?

The reason you had to use ADE in the first place to download is because of the books DRM.
ADE doesn't remove DRM, nor does Calibre (without the help of Apprentice Alf). |

You're doing nothing wrong ... except for maybe thinking that the process you're describing is somehow supposed to make DRM go away?

No, the whole point is allowing you to read them at diferent authorized devices.

There is a 3rd party plugin for Calibre that will strip the DRM when you first import the ebook. See Apprencice Alf's Blog for more info on DRM.
