Problem stripping kindle DRMs

pittsborojim · 10-11-2018, 02:28 AM

Hi. I have been using Calibre successfully for several years. Like many others, I am now having problems converting kindle ebooks. As suggested in forums I have visited, I have downgraded to v 1.17.0 of kindle for mac. I also have used the terminal input suggestion for preventing books from being downloaded in kfx format. When I get a book from Amazon & send it to kindle for mac, it comes in AZW format, but when I try to convert to MOBI, I get the error message stating the book is protected by DRM. I have installed the latest deDRM plugin. I just can't figure out what I am doing wrong. Help please! Thanks in advance.
