Tbh, I don't remember in which thread, but someone recently complained that they could no longer access their books on their 2024 Kindle. I assumed there had been an update, but maybe I was wrong and there was some other reason.
Still, it seems more than likely that Amazon will do something about those Kindles still receiving updates. And maybe older models too, although that's somewhat less likely. |

I had one book that came out on June 1, 2025 that I couldn't copy from my Paperwhite Gen 10 running 15.8.1, using the #3 method, but I had another book that came out June 2, 2025 that did copy fine. I went to my original Kindle Touch Gen 7 that's been sitting around and downloaded the book, and that copy worked fine.

None of this was related to a software update. Quote:
If so, try deleting the book from your Kindle then re-downloading it, then importing the new file into Calibre. Sometimes books downloaded to your Kindle are missing a piece, especially if you're downloading multiple books at the same time. See Post #988 Last edited by odamizu; 06-05-2025 at 12:11 AM. |

It was probably one of those Mac users. I'm glad to have been wrong about the issue, but I'm not too optimistic as to what the future brings. Amazon will almost certainly do something about newer Kindles. Why go to the trouble of disabling the Android method, which I'm sure far fewer people used, and leave their eink devices alone? |

Method 2a has also been blocked. Kindle for PC 2.4.0 no longer allows book downloads, and although downloads still work with Kindle for PC 1.17, DRM removal is no longer possible.

Eh? 2.4.0 downloads books perfectly well here (unless they were published after April 22, of course). And DRM can also be removed.

Amazon has blocked older versions of K4PC from downloading eBooks published after April 21, 2025 and KU eBooks. But for eBooks older K4PC can download, you can remove the DRM.

If you can download it with Kindle for PC 1.17, then it can be DeDRMed.
