Where is the book from? DeDRM isn't recognizing it as an Adobe DRM epub.

Where is the book from? DeDRM isn't recognizing it as an Adobe DRM epub.

It has been bought online. It is marked by the shop as Adobe DRM protected.

[ElleKayEm]

Not sure what is going on then. Did you download it with Adobe Digital Editions? If so, was ADE authorized with your Adobe ID?

[msy9999]

Yes, it has been downloaded on an e-reader linked with my Adobe ID and imported from there.

[ElleKayEm]

Ok, if you install ADE on the computer where you have calibre/DeDRM and authorize it with the same Adobe ID, DeDRM should be able to pick up the key from that. Recommend updating to DeDRM 10.0.9 as well.

[msy9999]

ADE is already installed on the same drive as calibre, and I also updated to 10.0.9

[ElleKayEm]

Ok, I'm stumped. The log will usually show more info when something goes wrong. Can you open and read it in ADE?

[msy9999]

Yes, no problem with ADE.

[ElleKayEm]

When you go into DeDRM's customization, is there a key in the Adobe Digital Editions ebooks section? Have you been able to decrypt other Adobe DRM books downloaded with ADE?

[msy9999]

Yes, the key was already stored in the plugin correctly. I found a way that finally worked: I downloaded all ACSM files with ADE , then downloaded all EPUB files into ADE. I then re-imported the files from the ADE folder into Calibre - voila!

Thanks a ton for your help, very much appreciated!!

[ElleKayEm]

I'm glad you got it figued out. And thanks for the explanation of what worked.
