Re: Kindle Removal Drm Error: .azw4 (New extension?)

I have the same issue; it occurred for me on this book: http://amzn.com/Advanced-Engineering-Mathematics-10th-ebook/dp/B005G14K86/ To be clear, this issue appears with the purchased edition of the book, as opposed to the rented version. I suspect that this new format may be linked to the fact that the book can only be read using the Kindle for PC program-- it won't transfer to an actual Kindle device (I wish that Amazon had highlighted that before I payed for it).

I downloaded the latest version of Calibre and the tools (4.6). I'm guaranteed to not have any issues with previous installs, as I had not used either tool before. Like willitoo, I had to rename the .azw4 file to the .azw extension for it to be recognized. After importing, the file showed the same issues described: the cover was successfully converted, but the remainder of the text was unconverted.

I'd be glad to help someone more knowledgeable solve this problem. If it would help, I can dump the first page of the unconverted portion to pastebin or somewhere.
