You can get it from
Kindle serial number by using
Code:
kindlepid.py <Kindle Serial Number>
You can also use KindlePID.pyw
But you don't need a PID for removing DRM from "
Kindle for PC" or "
Kindle for Mac" ebooks.
How to remove DRM from Kindle for PC ebooks- Install Calibre.
- Install Kindle for PC (K4PC).
- Start Kindle for PC. Enter the email address used for your Amazon account (not yourname@kindle.com) and your Amazon password.
- Your purchased ebooks are not on your computer yet. Click the “Archived Items” to view them.
- Right-Click on each ebook your want to remove DRM from and select “Add to Home”.
- Close K4PC.
- Download the MobiDeDRM plugin (or the DRM Tools Archive).
- Run Calibre. Go to the Preferences. Click on the "Plugins" button. In the bottom of the screen there is a “Plugin file :” text box.
Click on the button next to it to select the K4MobiDeDRM_vX.X.X_plugin.zip.
Click the "Add" button. Close Preferences dialog. - Click the "Add books" button in Calibre or Drag-n-Drop your Kindle ebooks from "My Documents\My Kindle Content".
The file names are all gibberish, so you may preffer to select all the ebooks (CTRL+A) and add them.
Usually it takes up to 1 minute to remove DRM from a Kindle ebook. - Depending on the original formatting, some books mat not look as good as they should. You can fix this by selecting these ebooks and converting them to MOBI with Calibre. Just tick the "Ignore margins" checkbox in the conversion settings.
