Have you tried the following advice?
ineptepub.py error: zipfile.BadZipfile: File name in directory ....

Worked!!


 
I bought an ebook from W****stones and wanted to read it using the iBooks app on my iPad.

Followed your instructions (they worked first time ;)) and the decrypted epub file now opens fine on the iPad :D

Completly agree that it's not about piracy but about your right to use your legally purchased digital media on any device you choose.

Thanks again guys!! :)

Ps. I used the following:

Windows 7 x64
ADE 1.72
Python 2.7 (32bit)
Pycrypto 2.1.0 (32bit for Python 2.7)
ineptkey.pyw 4.3
aineptepub.pyw 4.1

Ratcatcher: This is my first posting on this forum, although I am a member of other e-book forums through which i have been trying (in vain) to again be able to remove DRM from ePub books I have legitimately purchased, as I was formerly able to do when working with Windows XP. (Long sentence, sorry.) I now have a Windows 7 (64 bit) PC, and even though I've followed all the various online instructions, I've been unable to succeed.

As in your case, I've recently purchased a title from Water-----s, and have all but one of your list of components working properly. The one I can't get to work is aineptepub.pyw 4.1 (ineptepub.pyw). I download and rename the script, copy it into the same directory as the inept.key (which does work), but I get no action from it (no box pops up). I've performed this operation successfully many times on my XP, but not with my Windows 7. If ANYONE has any further ideas to help me, I'd be MOST appreciative. Thanks.

Hi!

Sorry for probably being a bit dense here :) I have seen other people posting something very similar before in this thread, but not really seen any answer. I have installed the needed stuff and put the ineptkey_v43.pyw file in a directory and run it with my python.exe file (v26). The only thing I get is an error message though and no adeptkey.der is written. If anyone can help me understand what is going wrong, that would be very much appreciated :)

Thanks for all the help. It works great on a file by file basis, but is there any way to automate it as I have 300+ DRM books? Perhaps the entire contents of an input folder to an output folder, using the same names?

Thank you in advance.

I've already mentioned in the thread that aineptepub.pyw removes protection from whole folders of EPUB eBooks.

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


 
I have finally found a solution to decrypt my DRM files from sony and able to read it in iBooks, however I encounter problems when I tried to remove DRM for 2 titles.

The error message I got was "OEBPS/Sang_9780307451675_o"

Can someone pls help me. I have no problem with other books. I tried uninstall and reinstall my Adobe Digital Editions v1.7, i tried de-authorise , but it does not help.

I tried delete away the books again, and re-download again. it does not help.

Appreciate if someone could highlight to me, what is the problem i am facing.
