I just tried to install the mobipocket 6.0 software and got an error that says
"The READER.EXE file is linked to missing export SETUPAPI.DLL:CM_Get_Parent." Any ideas on what I need to do? |

Download the current MobiPocket Reader version 6.2 from the MobiPocket site here. Here are the differences between the versions I noticed. Quote:

GatorDeb: I am using an old computer with ME, I guess that might be the problem.
daffy4u: I was just trying to capture the PID, you mentioned another way to do that, how? |

ME doesn't work. Follow that link I posted and you can download 4.9 which does work

You can read about the scripts for capturing the Kindle PID and links to the Python scripts here. You're going to need your Kindle's registration number which you can get from the Manage Your Kindle page. I don't know if you can get the registration number before you receive your Kindle. How to make the script work. This is the post that was clearest to me. Quote:

My actual computer is being repaired, so until I purchase teh new harddrive it requires I am suffereing through the old computer!
I downloaded python and the scripts as instructed, but I get lost on step 3 in the step by step insructions daffy4u posted, apparently it works diffently in ME because right clicking on my computer dosn't give me those options. I am about ready to give up and just accept that I will use amazon as my only source since apparently you need some sort of PhD in computers to get the rest of this junk to work. I assumed that being able to convert files would be simple! |
