Can not transfer book to Kindle Reader - DRM issues #268

Question / bug report

Hey. I sent a friend of mine a DeDRM'd epub ebook. He was able to add the book to his Amazon Library (via mail), the book is visible/accessable on his Android App, but not on the Kindle eReader (Kindle Paperwhite- one of the latest, was bought around christma). Even the transfer via Calibre does not work because of DRM issues. Is this a common problem since Amazon updated their software/format? Something like an additional "DRM layer" Kindle is using? The book is/was protected via Adobe DRM and works fine in Calibre.

Which version of Calibre are you running?

6.11.0

Which version of the DeDRM plugin are you running?

v10.0.3

If applicable, which version of the Kindle software are you running?

latest

The problem should not be DRM. Amazon can be really picky about the epubs when you send to Kindle for conversion. I know I've seen some discussion at MobileRead about getting them to work, but I haven't really looked into it myself. I only do the opposite -- convert Kindle to epub and read on my Kobo!
