Removing Mobipocket DRM
can anyone tell me in words of one syllable how I can remove the DRM from my legitimately purchased Mobipocket ebooks to read on my legitimately purchased Sony ereader? I already have Calibre which I'm sure will work perfectly once the DRM has been removed.

Sorry, we cannot answer such a "blatant" question - it is against forum policy.

I guess the right answer, in words of one syllable, is:
No, we can't. |

Apologies - I have no wish to violate the rules. Just want to read MY books on MY new device - all bought and paid for in good faith

Hint: Do a search on "MobiDeDRM".

Is "Google" a bisyllabic word?
And "Dark Reverser"? How many syllables? ![]() |

For general advice on how to run python scripts on ebooks, see Visual Kindle Guide. The KindlePID page covers installing python, and KindleFIX is a script which modifies MOBI ebook files to allow (some of) them to run on a Kindle. It does not remove DRM, so we can talk freely about KindleFIX here, but mobidedrm is similar except that it has different arguments.

I could use some help on this too. I downloaded the Mobipocket reader, a free sample, the mobidedrm python stuff is installed and I get as far as opening a command prompt window then to the free Mobi sample I have but the Visual Kindle Guide doesn't help me accomplish the task at hand. I'm helpless when it comes to computer-speak!
