Internal images missing

Marpa · 05-17-2015, 02:31 AM

Hello,

I purchased several Kindle ebooks (azw3) with internal images. While the cover is always present, the internal images are missing. It appears a "?" in their place, and the corresponding file (i.e. image001.unknown, 4kb) seems empty (if I save it with the Calibre editor to disk).

Is there a way to restore the images?
I'm using the latest version of Calibre for Windows.

Thanks in advance for your help.

That will be an azw6 book, which is not supported. Go to your manage kindle page on amazon and download the file from there, hopefully you will get a proper azw3 file.

Oh, thank you so much. I'll try it now

Did you get this to work? I appear to be having the same issue. Re-downloading doesn't help.
