For best results goto this post follow the directions in the section "Importing KFX books into calibre:" subsection "Importing from E-ink Kindle devices".

I was just looking at the Dictionaries tab at Amazon because there is one that I wish I had. Then I saw that I couldn't download it, like I did before with several others, all offered at no charge.
They have to be "delivered". Well, no, wifi is off for good on my Kindle, so I guess I'm out of luck. What recourse do I have? " |

If you're willing to share the ASIN and/or book title & author, that might provide clues as to why this one book doesn't work.

If you are able to download the book to a Kindle Touch (which would be in older non-kfx format) and DeDRM it, then I would think a copy from the Paperwhite should be a decryptable kfx. In fact, I believe the tougher kfx drm books aren't available to any E-ink Kindles -- only the mobile apps, Fires, and Kindle for Mac.

You can find old installers by googling them, and version 2.4.0 can be downloaded here. With the latter, you also need the deDRM 10.0.9 or alpha and the KFX Input plugin. Last edited by Sirtel; 06-10-2025 at 02:14 PM. |

Then there's no other way than to download it to your Kindle.

Sadly(?), Amazon has not used the Kindle Fire name since September, 2014. The removal of content with EBOK cds type set seems to happen only on Kindle ereaders (the ones with eInk screens).
Though I must admit to curiosity as to why you turn WiFi off when connecting to your computer. |

Hi. I had the problem that book covers were dissappearing when downloading to my computer, could use calibre to get them though.
But they were blank in the Kfire. Made it hader to choose book all blank covers. Read here that the wifi is a problem if on. Deleted the books in Kfire,redownloaded and closed down wifi. Now i get to keep the covers… Yes they do still dissapear if i forget to close down wifi. Tried that recently not intended. Greetings |
