I'm using Kindle for the Mac version 7.17.1 currently. Last week, I did a group conversion of all of my books (290) and every one of the converted to EPUB perfectly. Since then, I purchased the book (that I'm having issues with) that is AWZ4 and can't get it converted. I've spent a bunch of time and I'm about ready to move on.

Thank you all for your help!
But you didn't use Kindle for Mac to download that AZW4, as I understand. You used Download & Transfer, and because that book can only be downloaded for a Fire tablet, you won't be able to deDRM it this way. You'll need to download it again using Kindle for Mac (the classic version, not the one you're using).

And then extract the PDF. AFAIK, azw4 can't be converted.

It can, but that works about as well as converting a PDF does

That's because you are converting a PDF.

As we've explained, you'll need to download it with Kindle for Mac 1.40.

He said he was trying to convert an azw4. I was just pointing out that he should be *extracting* the PDF from the azw4, not *converting* it to epub.

They'll never be able to do anything with the copy that's for a Fire. If they ever download it with an older Kindle for Mac, then they'll be able to remove the DRM and use "From KFX" or KindleUnpack as needed.
