DeDRM an dCalibre

[Paengelanton]

Hello, ADE 2.0, Calibre 3.35 (64 bit) and DeDRM 6.6.1. DeDRM successful installed. I load an ascm-file and load with this via ADE the epub. In ADE I can read the book. Everything ok. The import to calibre doesn't work. I see the title in the user interface but not the cover. When I try to open it I get the message, that the book ist DRM protected. Also the converting doesn't help.

Here the report from the debug mode:

Has anyone an idea? On my old PC everything worked fine.

Thank you

ADE is authorized with your Adobe ID? Seems to be having trouble retrieving your key.

Is your old PC setup still accessible? If so and if it was the same Adobe ID, you could save the key from the old DeDRM and import it into this one.

Some attempts later..... I found a description in one of your answers that helped: I deinstalled ADE, deleted the registration in windows with regedit and installed ADE again. "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Adept" login and it works. Maybe the problem was that I first installed ADE 4.5 (it worked on my old PC). And the deinstallation deleted not everything. After 3 evenings the problem is solved.

Thank you

Yes, that was probably it. Reinstalling would have been my next suggestion. Glad you found the answer.
