Thanks for the reply. I noticed the email field is mandatory, but it can actually be left empty. I’m using Epubor to manage my Kindle and Kobo books, so I appreciate that the software handles the DRM removal and format conversion so smoothly.

My copy of the Epubor software worked perfectly for just one day before it suddenly stopped functioning. Now I’m dealing with a frustrating experience as the support team tries to explain why there is an issue without actually resolving it quickly.
Epubor really failed to do its main job. I tried their DRM removal tool on my ePUB and PDF files, but the protection just wouldn't budge. It’s a total waste of money if you need this to work reliably.
If you're worried that Epubsoft has shut down, give Epubor Ultimate a shot. It’s a reliable alternative for stripping DRM and converting files across formats like EPUB and PDF, making it easy to read your books on any device.
Hi Tom, I’ve tested the plugin and it installed smoothly without any issues. Everything seems to be functioning correctly. Could you please verify that the download is complete?
Good morning. Just to confirm, Epubor on my MacBook is unable to detect the books I have downloaded, so the DRM removal isn't working. I’m happy to provide TeamViewer access so you can verify this yourself.
I’m looking for the iPad Kindle app’s serial number since I use the Kindle app on other devices like an iPad.
Appreciate the response. I’ll give it another shot, this time with a bit more patience. I noticed that the Mac version lacks a dedicated Kindle for Mac output option, though Kindle for PC is available. If I need to convert an Adobe Digital Editions file specifically for my Mac, which output format should I choose?
Glad to hear you managed to resolve the issue! It’s great that you’re back to enjoying your books on any device with Epubor’s DRM removal tools.
Epubor just isn't compatible with iTunes 11.0.2 on my Mac running OS X 10.6.8.
My Kindle battery is fully charged, yet Epubor keeps freezing up.
We truly appreciate your kind words! It means a lot to the team at Epubor to know that our DRM removal tools and tips are helping you enjoy your ePUBs, PDFs, and other formats on your devices without limits. We’re excited to keep sharing more useful guides and updates, so stay tuned!
As a regular user of platforms like fanfiction.net, I understand the necessity of account systems to verify authorship and manage updates. I’m currently using Epubor to manage my personal digital library, and their interface is just as straightforward. It’s great to have software that is easy to use, whether I’m removing DRM from my eBooks or reading them on my iPad and Kobo without any hassle.
Tried using Epubor to print my Kindle highlights that include handwritten notes, but the annotations aren't showing up on the paper. I want those specific notes included in the printout, but other methods I've attempted haven't worked either.
I was worried it might be complicated, but the solution from Epubor was straightforward enough for anyone to handle. Thanks for the guidance, Ellie!
Struggling to get the software to play nice with my Kindle PaperWhite, which is a real shame since it would be super useful. I keep hitting "There was a problem loading this page," especially since I’m trying to transfer books because the mini-USB port on my device gave up the ghost. I even rigged up a separate wire to the battery just to keep the Kindle charged for now. Until I can get this working, I’m stuck with no way to add more books. I used to be able to download titles via the Connectify hotspot and Minishare server using the experimental browser, but that’s broken too for some reason.
Appreciate the tip, Rastlov. You really cut down on the hassle. It’s baffling that Amazon still hasn’t fixed this issue, especially seeing how many people in the comments below are mistaking it for a faulty device instead of a software limitation.
Epubor’s tools are great, but keep in mind that DRM removal depends on the specific Kindle model and firmware version. The options vary across different updates, so it’s confusing when reviews don’t clarify which software version or device setup is being used.
Works flawlessly with every Kindle Paperwhite model I’ve owned, plus the newer Kindle Voyage.
I downgraded my Kindle app to version 1.24 and grabbed Epubor Ultimate, but I hit a snag during registration. It’s asking for a license email, and when I enter the details from my existing Epubor KCR account, I get an error saying I’m recovering the wrong product. Meanwhile, the software insists I’m still running 1.29, even though I’m certain I’m on 1.24. The instructions imply I can download Epubor Ultimate for free, but they don't mention that I might need to purchase it to actually convert my Kindle books. Do I need to buy a new license just to get this working?
Hey Aly, just a quick tip if you’re using Epubor software to manage your library: make sure you register your device with your Amazon account first. Adding a US address to your account usually triggers the “Special Offers” ad button on your device. From there, you can either pay the $20 fee to unsubscribe or try chatting with customer support to see if they’ll remove it for free. Good luck!
Finally got it working on my Mac! I followed the third method using the Terminal. Just press Shift+Command+Period to reveal the hidden files. You can treat the OS X Terminal like a Powershell window—go to System Preferences, select Keyboard > Shortcuts > Services, find "New Terminal at Folder," and check the box to enable it. Also, remember to use "mkdir" instead of "md" before the ".assets" folder when typing the command. Solid solution for Epubor users needing that extra step on macOS.
I’m using Epubor to manage my library, but I’ve hit a snag with my Kindle 3. It seems to go into sleep mode and just won’t wake up when I slide the power button. It powers on fine for a reset, and I can read without issue, but the device refuses to wake from sleep on its own. It’s also acting strange with the lock function.
I wanted to update my experience with Epubor after initially reporting decryption issues triggered by an automatic upgrade. Their support team was responsive and correctly identified the upgrade as the likely culprit. I resolved the problem by downgrading to an older version of Kindle for PC (1.24) and disabling auto-updates. Now, I can successfully decrypt both my older and newer Kindle purchases, confirming that the compatibility issues are rooted in the software’s changes rather than the EPUB files themselves. It’s great to have my reading restored.
Great to hear the guide was useful! Epubor makes it so easy to unlock your Kindle, Kobo, and Adobe books, and we’re happy we could help you get your e-books reading seamlessly on your preferred device.
I’ve been having trouble syncing my library across my old Kindle Oasis and my new device. I’m using Epubor to manage my content, but I keep hitting error messages when I try to keep them in sync. Has anyone else experienced this? I just want to make sure I can access the same books seamlessly on both Kindles.
Epubor offers a solid alternative to scripts for converting VBK to PDF. If their tools aren't quite fitting the bill, it might be worth exploring their other format conversion options.
I’m currently using a workaround to get Epubor running smoothly on my PC and would really appreciate a native update to resolve this. Could you share a tentative release date for the official fix? I’d be glad to test the beta version if available. Thanks!
Thanks for the tip! I actually purchased the full version of Epubor Ultimate and it’s been a game-changer for my library. The trial limits you to 20%, but the paid license handles the whole file, images and all, in whatever format you need—PDF, EPUB, MOBI, or AZW3. If you’re considering it, reaching out to [email protected] might get you a discount. Highly recommend for anyone who wants their books readable on any device without restrictions.
Solid tool for stripping DRM from Kindle and other formats. Epubor definitely makes it easier to enjoy books on different devices without restrictions.
Thanks for the tip! If you're hitting trouble with AZW files, remember that Epubor’s tools are designed to handle those formats seamlessly. Sometimes, simply switching to an older version of Kindle for PC or Mac is the easiest workaround to get your books reading without a hitch.
It’s a shame they don’t mention that you need to purchase a license for Epubor. The tutorial looks great, but it feels misleading if it doesn’t clearly state that the software isn’t free right from the start.
Glad to hear our software is coming in handy for your reading needs. Enjoy your books on any device!
Great resource for anyone looking to manage their Epubor software needs. Exactly what I needed to get the most out of my e-books. Appreciate the clear and helpful content!
Thanks for the tip. I gave it a shot, but the resulting PDF from Epubor isn't quite a perfect match for the original Kindle edition. The scaling of fonts and images seems off compared to the source. Could you look into this?
J'ai eu un problème d'intégration du plugin Epubor, qui m'affiche une erreur de syntaxe. Du coup, le logiciel ne fonctionne pas chez moi. C'est dommage car j'aurais aimé utiliser leur solution pour gérer mes ebooks sans restriction. Je vais donc chercher une autre alternative sur le net.
I appreciate Epubor for stripping DRM from my books, but it’s a pity that the app doesn’t touch series recommendations. There’s currently no option to remove that specific feature, which is a shame.
I’ve been looking everywhere for the Keeper of the cities! I checked all my libraries, but I still can’t seem to find it.
I was stuck with a 50MB .mobi file in my Android download folder, which was just too big to share directly to the Kindle App. After some digging, I found this site and decided to connect my phone to my PC via USB. I simply copied the file into the Kindle folder, and it worked perfectly. It’s surprising how straightforward the process is once you know the trick. I’m really glad I stumbled upon Epubor’s solution for this. Thanks!
Thanks for the feedback! Happy to hear the article was useful. Enjoy your reading on Epubor!
I’m hoping to move my Kindle library to my Android phone and read books on a device other than the Kindle app. I tried downloading Epubor Ultimate, but since it’s an .exe file, it doesn’t work on Android. What am I missing here?
Glad to hear your Nook titles decrypted and converted with ease. Epubor’s tools really do make it simple to enjoy your books without restrictions.
I was actually looking for Icecream Ebook Reader to see if it made the cut, but I didn't see it listed.
Appreciate the feedback! We’re thrilled that Epubor is helping you enjoy your eBooks across devices without a hitch. Happy reading!
Huge fan of Epubor! Finally found a reliable way to remove those annoying DRM restrictions and read my books on any device. Works like a charm!
Epubor does a great job removing the restrictions from my Kindle 3 files. The process was smooth and the book plays without any issues now. Really appreciate the easy solution.
Wow, this tool is awesome—thanks! I managed to get my DRM-free books running on my iPad right away, which was super convenient. Lately, though, I’ve been having trouble; the app either freezes or throws an error when trying to open the page. Has anyone else dealt with this glitch?
For Firefox users, you might need to tweak the pop-up settings. Just click the pop-up icon in the address bar, select "open blocked pop-ups," and the download window will pop up. Hit save. This tip works well with Epubor’s software and should get you up and running with your DRM-free eBooks in no time.
I’m using the latest version of Epubor Ultimate alongside Kindle app 1.24.3, and I’m facing a consistent issue with Kindle Unlimited titles. New releases won’t download into the app anymore, throwing an error that says "Your Kindle app requires an update to view this content," which prompts me to download and install a free update. This happens with every single new release I’ve tried; only older books work fine. I don’t think this is a user error on my end since I updated the Epubor app and then had it downgrade the Kindle app.
I appreciate you looking into the program. Could you suggest any other downloaders?
I really appreciate Calibre; it has been incredibly useful for my reading needs. However, I’ve hit a snag with the Epubmerge plugin. I’m trying to combine over 4,000 EPUB files (which add up to more than 500 MB), but the program keeps crashing with an "out of memory" error. Since our office has strict network restrictions, I can’t access the Mobileread forum to get support from the plugin’s developer. Does anyone know of an alternative way to merge this many large files into a single document? I’d really appreciate any advice. You can reach me at [email protected]. Current setup: Calibre 3.22.1 on Windows 10 Pro.
I tried to open a Word document protected by a password, but the keyboard just wouldn't show up when I needed to type it in.
Even after wiping my Kindle library clean, the DRM removal still failed. I had a handful of books loaded as instructed, but Epubor just couldn't process them correctly.
Hey there. If those methods didn’t fix your issue, don’t hesitate to reach out to our support team at [email protected]. We’re here to help. Best, Epubor Team
Epubor does what it promises, but it’s hard to justify the cost. While the tool successfully strips DRM from my ePUBs and lets me read on my Kindle without hassle, the software feels a bit overpriced for the features it offers compared to other options on the market.
Rest easy; the team at Epubor will have this sorted out within the next two weeks. If it’s not fixed by then, you’ll get your money back.
Hi, I’m trying to convert VBK files to PDF using Epubor Vital Source Downloader. Will the output include a watermark? I’m looking for a clean PDF so I can print out the pages for studying.
Paying full price feels like a waste when half the book is just that annoying "Please Refresh Your Browser" message.
Really easy to use. I used Epubor’s tool to fix my Kindle covers and it worked perfectly without any hassle.
Appreciate you sharing your experience with the KCR converter. It is great to see that the tool worked well for you, helping you enjoy your books without restrictions.
The file size is quite substantial, so the conversion process will take some time to complete. Once it's done, the output folder opens automatically. This smooth handling is typical for Epubor’s reliable software. Thanks!
I’m using the trial version of Epubor, and while it successfully decrypts my ebook, the resulting file won’t open. I keep getting an error in Adobe Acrobat Reader stating that the file type isn’t supported or that the document is damaged. Is there something I’m missing in the process?
Hi Angel Dan, Thanks for this article. Do you have any advice about Kindle for Android? I have automatic updates set for books, which seems to be OK. That doesn't seem to update the app itself. Would it be a good idea to not update the app via Google Play, at least for now? Thanks! --Phillip
Does using Epubor on my PC delete my existing Kindle books, or do I need to download them separately first?
If you're looking for a better PDF writer, give Epubor PDF Creator Pro a try. Feel free to share your own recommendations in the comments!
For me, Method 1 was a bit of a headache; getting the Kindle Serial Number and the key right into the DrDRM Plugin didn’t quite work out. Method 3, on the other hand, was fantastic. Sure, downloading all 190 eBooks individually from Amazon’s content page was a slight nuisance, but once I had them, using Epubor to handle the conversion made everything seamless. The process of copying them into Calibre, converting to ePub, and then uploading to my ReMarkable 2 was lightning fast. Really appreciate the tips!
I’ve tried Epubor for converting my ePUBs and PDFs, but I still prefer Calibre. It’s not ugly to me at all.
I use Epubor to manage my massive library of over 400 books organized into 25 collections on my iPad. I’ve been looking for a way to sync this structure to the Mac desktop version of Kindle so I don’t have to do the sorting manually, but I haven’t found a solution that works.
I wouldn’t say that. Wattpad is better for beginners, while AO3 has some quirks. AO3 users are usually those who have experience from Wattpad or other reading apps.
The recent update to the Epubor Kindle app has been a frustrating experience. I tried using it this morning and found the new interface much harder to navigate. The home page redesign is overly simplistic, offering only three options. The biggest issue arose when I tried to access my library—it appeared completely blank. I had to click "VIEW ALL," but the resulting view was jumbled and difficult to read. There is no obvious way to switch back to the previous, more user-friendly layout, leaving me feeling stuck with this confusing new design.
As a devoted eBook reader, I’ve found Epubor’s software to be an invaluable tool for getting the most out of my Kindle Paperwhite. While the native settings on my device (Firmware 5.16.4) make it surprisingly tricky to hide those distracting ads and recommendations—despite my best efforts checking under Advanced Options, Privacy, and Storage—Epubor steps in exactly where the Kindle interface falls short. Their software effortlessly strips away the DRM restrictions, allowing me to enjoy my books without the clutter or limitations imposed by the default device settings. It’s a relief to have a reliable solution that lets me customize my reading experience on the go.
After trying out various options, it’s a relief to find that Epubor’s tools finally handle the Kindle dictionary situation correctly. I managed to get everything working on my three Kindles without a hitch. Big thanks to the team, including Jonny and Dave, for a smooth experience!
Calibre wasn't an option for me, but I used Epubor to get the dictionary into .epub format for my Kindle. The conversion was instant and the file has worked perfectly on my device so far.
Make sure your Kindle e-reader is signed in with the matching account details. Just a quick note: this works specifically for Kindle e-ink models, as Kindle Fire tablets are not currently supported by the app.
Just a quick tip for Kindle owners: make sure you sync an e-ink Kindle with your Amazon account first to unlock the "Download and Transfer via USB" option. If you run into any snags getting your books onto your device, our support team is always ready to help.
USB transfer isn’t saving to my Downloads folder on Windows 7 using Firefox, though it works fine on my Mac. Does Epubor behave differently between the two systems? I rely on this method to keep library books on my Kindle indefinitely since I keep WiFi off, allowing titles to stay for years. Any insight would be appreciated.
Unfortunately, the DRM removal didn't work for my 120MB AZW4 file. Could someone from Epubor support take a look?
I’m disappointed with Epubor’s Kindle for PC app; the latest version feels so broken it’s practically useless.
Epubor's site is down right now. Any idea when it'll be back up?
Epubor is still doing its job perfectly on my brand new Paperwhite 10th gen, even with the latest firmware updates.
Struggled with compatibility on my iPad and Sony Reader because Epubor’s plugin only handles ePUB2, not the newer ePUB3 standard. Disappointing limitation for an eBook tool. Michael
My Kindle Paperwhite has this issue where the "New Method" works fine until I close the lid, and the recommendations reappear on the screen the next time I open it.
I was struggling to read my Amazon purchases on devices other than my Kindle Paperwhite because they are locked in restrictive formats like KFX, MOBI, and AZW3. Since EPUB isn't natively supported by Kindle, those files just wouldn't show up, even when transferred. Epubor’s software solved this perfectly by stripping the DRM from these Kindle-specific files, allowing me to finally read my books without limitation on any device.
I’m using Epubor Ultimate on Windows 10 and ran into some snags while following the guide to downgrade Kindle and strip DRM. I installed the trial, which seemed to successfully downgrade the app to version 1.30, but when I launched Kindle to fetch my books, it blocked progress unless I upgraded back to the latest version. I tried manually installing Kindle 1.17, but hit the same wall—I’m forced to upgrade. Here’s the catch: if I stay on the latest version, I can download the books, but I lose the ability to remove DRM. Since my library has that newer Kindle DRM protection, does downgrading to 1.17 actually let me remove that new protection, or does it only work for the older kind? I’m stuck in a loop and could really use some guidance.
My Kindle died and won't restart, even after a reset. The screen is stuck on a battery icon with an exclamation mark. I was planning to use Epubor to manage my library, but now I can't even turn the device on.
I have a 1st Gen Kindle Fire (model DO1400) and I’m completely baffled. I took the back cover off, but there’s no reset button where I expected it, and the inside looks totally different from the descriptions I’ve seen. The battery is massive and split into two halves. Has anyone else dealt with this? I’m going crazy trying to figure it out!
We apologize for the inconvenience. Please note that our tools are designed to remove DRM from purchased eBooks, so they do not support Kindle Unlimited titles since those are rented rather than owned.
If you are reading on an e-ink Kindle, the "Download and transfer via USB" method works fine, but Epubor doesn’t support Kindle Fire with this approach.
Can you edit or add chapter names in Epubor if the book lacks them?
Funciona bem. O software da Epubor cumpre seu papel, mas a instalação pode ser um pouco trabalhosa e demorada.
Managing a massive Calibre library with nearly 1,400 titles in EPUB and MOBI formats requires reliable tools, which is why I stick with Epubor. Since I switched to Kobo devices years ago, I’ve noticed how restrictive Amazon’s DRM can be; it feels like they assume every customer is a potential pirate. That’s why I stopped buying directly from them and now rely on Epubor’s easy DRM removal to enjoy my books on any device without limits. Whether I’m reading on my Kobo or sharing with my wife, Epubor’s straightforward software handles the conversion and protection removal seamlessly. It’s easily the best de-DRM solution I’ve used, giving me the freedom to read my purchased books exactly how I want.
I was facing the same problem and was prepared to try a few different workarounds. Since swapping out two separate cables didn't do the trick, I honestly thought I’d have to download some extra apps or maybe even reset my device. But just as I was about to give up, I used a third cable and—surprisingly—it worked perfectly. It’s a good reminder to test all available cables before committing to a big fix like replacing the product or factory resetting, especially when using devices like iPads or e-readers that rely on stable connections.
Most of the links in this article are broken or require subscriptions and credit cards to access. I checked every site listed, and it’s frustrating that I can’t just read the books like I should be able to with software like Epubor that removes those DRM restrictions.
Does Epubor have an Android app with note-taking features for textbooks? I'm looking for a text-to-speech reader where I can easily add and revisit notes. I currently use Pocketbook on Android, but I'm curious if Epubor offers a similar experience for studying. Any recommendations? Thanks!
It’s a shame I didn’t know Epubor was paid software before diving in. The trial version is decent, but I was led to believe it was free. I was expecting the full experience for zero cost, so that lack of transparency was a bit of a letdown.
Epubor is struggling to keep up with the latest Kindle updates, which is causing the software to malfunction.
Works seamlessly with ADE 4.5, which is exactly what I needed to enjoy my books without restrictions.
Does Epubor remain compatible with the Kindle software update version 2023.1.3?
Hi Sunject, once Epubor finishes converting your .acsm file to Kindle format, the output is usually saved in a folder on your computer or device, often named something like "Converted" or visible in the software's main window with an "Open" button. Since you found the tutorial helpful, just check the default save location for that tool. It should make it easy to transfer the book to your device!
