Version 6.6.3 does not decrypt kindle AZW3 format

[jillgibson]

When trying to deDRM Kindle book with azw3 format, I get the following error (I've removed the Kindle serial #798 ). The latest version of DRM that I've been able to use successfully (on Mac) is 6.5.4. I don't have any problems DRMing kindle ebooks with that version. Any help would be appreciated. I don't know anything about programming. :

Starting with 6.6.x+, the Mac standalone DeDRM app requires PyCrypto (pre-6.6 was able to use software that came pre-installed on Macs).

Open a Terminal window and try: sudo python -m pip install pycrypto

If that doesn't work, see more details here: https://github.com/apprenticeharper/DeDRM_tools/issues/590#issuecomment-433083174

ETA: I don't know what you mean by "I've removed the Kindle serial #798", but the issue in #798 is unrelated to your CryptoCipher error.

[jillgibson]

I don't know anything about how to use terminal or what PyCrypto is, but I did paste what you wrote in the terminal window, then quit that app and tried again to deDRM my book. I still got an error message that it couldn't be decrypted. This is the DeDRM log. Maybe I need to restart the Mac after adding the code you gave me in the terminal window? Thank you for your help.

That's still giving you the "No module named Crypto.Cipher" error, which means PyCrypto didn't install. Do you recall what the Terminal message was?

If it was "No module named pip", try: sudo easy_install pip

Then try again with: sudo python -m pip install pycrypto

If you get a pop-up window that asks you to install Command Line Tools for XCode, you can agree and click "Continue"

Then try again with: sudo python -m pip install pycrypto

If it still gives you the Crypto.Cipher error, you may need the -H or --force switches that jalavera used. (I didn't need those switches, but jalavera did).

If the error changes from no Crypto.Cipher to no PyLzma, then you're making progress. It means PyCrypto was installed, but you still need PyLzma.

Try: sudo python -m pip install pylzma

First off, thanks so much for your help. I have no idea what I'm doing, so I'm very appreciative.

I did as you suggested and received the terminal message "No module named pip" and went to the next step. Pip installed. Went to the next step... install pycrypto. No pop-up window. This is what came up next in the terminal window:

I don't know understand what this means when you suggested using what jalavera used. -H or --force . Sorry, I really know zero about programming language, but am grateful for your patience and help.

Thank you again for any further suggestions you might give.

[jillgibson]

I just gave it another go on my own, copying and pasting the force command that jalavera used. This was the error message from terminal using that:

python -m pip install pycrypto --force DEPRECATION: Python 2.7 will reach the end of its life on January 1st, 2020. Please upgrade your Python as Python 2.7 won't be maintained after that date.

Hmmm ... I think you need someone with more computer skills than I have because I'm hitting my limit. A few thoughts:

• Are you on macOS 10.3 Panther? (I'm on 10.13 High Sierra)

• I think the reference to "checking whether the C compiler works ... no" means you need the Command Line Tools for XCode, and I don't know how to install them on OS 10.3. It might be on the system disc that came with your Mac. (On 10.13 a helpful pop-up window appears.)

• In the first log it suggests using the -H flag, which jalavera also used. Did you try that? sudo -H python -m pip install pycryto --force (Though I suspect nothing will work until you get XCode installed.)

• There is also reference to permissions. Do you have admin privileges on your computer? If not, that may be the problem.

But these are all guesses and I'm hoping someone with more computer skills than I have comes along.

I don't have any further answers here, but at this point, I'd say stick with 6.5.4. The main thing you'd be missing is KFX support, but you'd want to use calibre with the DeDRM and KFX plugins for that anyway.

ZolaLa9,

Thanks for all your help. In answer to your questions:

1. I'm on 10.13.6 High Sierra
2. I do not get the helpful pop-up window you've described
3. I tried the new code you suggested and received this in the terminal:

DEPRECATION: Python 2.7 will reach the end of its life on January 1st, 2020. Please upgrade your Python as Python 2.7 won't be maintained after that date. A future version of pip will drop support for Python 2.7. Collecting pycryto Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pycryto (from versions: ) No matching distribution found for pycryto

4. Yes, I have privileges on my computer and entered my password with each of the steps you've outlined.

I guess that I'm out of luck because your computer knowledge for this stuff far exceeds anything I know, but I want to thank you again for all you've helped me with thus far! The good news is that My older version of DRM works, so I will continue using it.

Many Thanks!!

Thanks ElleKayEm for helping as well. I think this is the determination I've come to after trying so many steps!

[ZolaLa9]

Not sure why you're not getting the helpful pop-up window, but since you're on 10.13.6, you should be able to install XCode from the App Store. If you go to App Store and search XCode, it will be categorized as Developer Tools from Apple Inc.

Or you could go back to 6.5.x. I think 6.5.5 should work (not that it has a lot of extra improvements over 6.5.4). This might be safer than continuing to fiddle in Terminal.

Thanks for the report. Clearly more testing on Mac OS is needed for the next release.

Thanks for the report. Clearly more testing on Mac OS is needed for the next release.

I think it's just that the system requirements for the standalone Mac app changed starting with 6.6+. Now Macs need to have PyCrypto and PyLzma installed (which in turn require XCode). But once you get all that installed, 6.6+ works fine.

Thanks ApprenticeHarper for maintaining these tools!
