Adobe ADEPT DRM for EPUB circumvented - Page 48

starrigger · 04-28-2010, 03:20 PM

I know this has been covered, but I can't remember and can't find it:

Are epubs purchased from B&N and downloaded directly to the Nook protected by Adept DRM or a different scheme? (I.e., will the inept script work on them?)

B&N ePubs use a different DRM scheme. There is another script out there called 'ignoble'. I used it once on a B&N ePub just to try it out.

Ah--thanks. I was considering a Nook for my 87-year-old father-in-law. After looking at the Nook, though, I decided he'd find the Sony Touch easier to use and got him that, instead.

Thank you so so much for this! This worked flawlessly the very first time for me. I love having all my books de-DRM'ed.

THANKS!!!!

I've been merrily, labouriously disinfecting over 200 files for the last few weeks and have hit an error I can't get around.

Here is a screenshot of the error I got on two epubs I downloaded this week:

Since the error flags, I get no output. These are Overdrive-sourced, both newish releases, so I'm wondering if there has been a change in file structure?

It means you have a bad directory structure in the ePub. You'll need to unzip it, find the error, fix it, and then rezip and try to strip the DRM from there.

I am trying to remove the DRM from an ebook so I can use it on my iPad. When I run the script I get this error:

Error in:Holy_Bible_NIV.epub[Errno 2] No Such file or Directory:'/Users/myname/Documents/ebook/\\Holy_Bibke_NIV.epub

I am not sure what the error means. I have the Decrypter pointed to the key file, the input path the /Users/myname/Documents/ebook/ and the output path to /Users/myname/Desktop

I saw above that JSWolf said to unzip the file and correct the error. I have unzipped the epub file but I am not sure what I am looking for.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Did you use the "browse" option to choose your directories, rather than key them in manually?

At first glance (as a Windows user), it looks to me like your slashes are in the wrong direction: / for URLs, \ for Windows file directories.

66sprite · 05-12-2010, 05:12 PM

I used the browse buttons to choose the directories. The slashes are backwards because OSX is a unix os.

There might be some problems in certain circumstances. Have you (re-)named the file starting with two backslashs? It's possible to name your file that way ... the script is scanning for // or \\.

In most cases, just unzipping and re-zipping (the special epub way) will do the trick. It seems that there's more than one place in a zip file to store the file paths. Some epubs have incorrect information in one of those places.

66sprite · 05-12-2010, 06:23 PM

I just renamed the file and put it in a new folder and it still comes up with the same error.

66sprite · 05-12-2010, 06:25 PM

i will try unzipping and rezipping it.
