It’s a bit ugly but it does what it says and works well. I’m specifically focusing on the Mac since that’s all I know other users will have to venture elsewhere.Ĭalibre is a Java application which is an eBook management suite. Since I went through the effort of converting all of my Kindle documents, I figured I’d write a mini guide to getting it done. I could use the Kindle app for iOS but I’ve found iBooks to be faster at syncing read position, and it feels a lot more natural to use. So I’ve converted all of my Kindle purchases to ePubs for use in iBooks. Partly because I forget to charge it, and partly because I can never get the lighting in my favorite reading locations quite right. As time has progressed, I’ve found myself using my physical Kindle less and less. I'll refrain from discussing methods for removing DRM, as that's frowned on here, but I'm sure you can find some references if you do a forum search.I started off reading eBooks from the Amazon Kindle store. Once the files were downloaded to my Mac, I used the standard Add feature in Calibre to import them. Instead, I use the "Download & Transfer via USB" option when viewing the list of books in the Manage Your Content & Devices section of the Amazon website. After reading several threads here and elsewhere, I found the best option for me was to bypass downloading the Kindle for Mac app at all. I've tried the new Kindle App, but the way the books download is not a way that I can use the DeDRM tool in Calibre.Īfter years of being stuck on Sierra with my ancient 2010 MacBook Pro, I recently bought a new iMac running Catalina and set about to finally get all my Kindle books into Calibre. But since I'm on Catalina, I can't use that method. I have researched and others say use an older Kindle App on the MAC.
Since Amazon changed the cloud reader, I can now longer "download" books. The I used Epubor-kcr-converter to remove the DMR so I could then load them into Calibre.
I was using Kindle Cloud reader with Chrome to "download books" bought from Amazon.
