Download from Amazon to Calibre no longer possible via USB method.
According to the Amazon web site, as from 1. March 2025, it is no longer possible to download a book using the USB option. I have since accessed Amazon and the option no longer exists.

Does any one have an suggestion as to how I can now get my books from Amazon into Calibre?

Many thanks for your suggestions.
Kind regards, Alan

I suggest reading the first post and then skipping to the recent posts at the end.

What page do you suggest starting with after the first post?

Page numbers are useless. I have my profile set to display 40 posts per page...

I would think the OP has the default set. So in that case, not useless.
