Thanks for your response and I'm glad you got it working! :)

Re: How to remove DRM from sony ebooks (BBeB and EPUB)

 

Hi there, this doesn't seem to be working for me... maybe you can tell me what I'm doing wrong?

On my WinXP laptop, I installed the following:

1. Adobe Digital Editions
2. python-2.7.msi
3. pycrypto-2.1.0.win32-py2.7.exe
4. ineptkey.pyw (tried version 4.3 and 5)
5. ineptepub.pyw (version 4.1)

Then I copied the 2 pyw files into the folder where my Sony Reader books are located. I double-clicked on the ineptkey.pyw file... and absolutely nothing happened. My mouse cursor changed to an hourglass for a split-second, but that's it. I don't see any adeptkey.der anywhere??

Thanks.

Make sure
1. to download python scripts, not copy-paste them
2. to rename downloaded .TXT files into .PYW files.

If this doesn't help, then open Python, then go to File -> Open and open your .PYW script.

Thanks for the suggestions. I tried downloading the scripts again, and made sure the file extensions are showing so I can see what type of file it really is. Also, clicking on the Python program does nothing... should an interface window open or something happen? Also, I can click on the Python command line app and that opens, could you tell me how to accomplish all this with the command line?

baxna, could you please right click on ineptkey.pyw and open the file properties and make a screenshot of them?

Make sure again that you use Python x32, not x64.

Also please try the following:

1. Open Command Prompt(run cmd.exe).
2. Change the directory to where you saved the pyw scripts
   i.e.
   Code:

   ---

   cd c:/undrm_tools/

   ---

3. Run ineptkey.pyw by invoking python first as follows:
   
   Code:

   ---

   python ineptkey.pyw

   ---

   If that does not work, then try running it with pythonw as follows:
   
   Code:

   ---

   pythonw ineptkey.pyw

   ---

After running your scripts by invoking python or pythonw, you should get at least an error message that can be used to find out what is going wrong.

Try to use the following:
DeDRM AppleScript for Mac OS X 10.5, 10.6

Re: How to remove DRM from sony ebooks (BBeB and EPUB)

 

I have a problem removing a drm of an epub.

I have python 2.7 installed and pycrpypto for 2.7.

Then i take ineptkey version 4.3 and ineptepub 5.2 from pastie.

It makes the key.der file but when i open the pastie.pyw (ineptepub) and click on "decrypt" i get the error: Problem decrypting Session Key

What is my fault?
I have win 7 32 bit

Thanks a lot

Python is white space sensitive. Make sure you download the ineptkey.pyw, not copy-paste it.
