As for KindleforPC, the DeDRM plugin for Calibre 5 does not work. It only works for Mobi/KF8 eBooks downloaded for an eInk Kindle. ePub does not work as well. It's still pre-alpha. |

Jon, in my testing, I found the majority of Kindle for PC books will have their DRM removed. It's not 100% but it's getting there. I would agree with the comments elsewhere that this is not even close to release code but I like playing with it to see how the project is moving along.

"Simultaneous device unlimited" would already be DRM-free though (as long as it wasn't KFX format).

Or, of course, just download calibre 4.23 and put it in Applications, and just use 4.23 for now. You can downgrade to 4.23 from 5.x by just deleting on Application and installing the other - the preferences and library are compatible.

To open 4.23 you must double-click the 4.23 icon, after having quit 5.x. But it sounds to me like you'd be better off just reverting to 4.23. Delete the 5.x application (quit the application and then drag it to the trash) and install the 4.23 application instead. |

I've had my Calibre library in Dropbox for years, never been a problem. Everything we have is in Dropbox, it has to be as we have three PC's in the house all working from the same database. |
