Latest Kindle for PC no longer uses Calibre compatible AZW files. Things just got a little harder for folks who like to store their Amazon purchases in Calibre. I noticed it myself when I was trying to add a DRM free title I just bought, Bone Dance by Emma Bull, to my Calibre library. Even though its DRM free, when I dragged and dropped the file from my My Kindle Content directory across to Calibre, it couldnt figure out what to do with the file. A little detective work turned up this Mobileread forum thread. It turns out that the new version of Kindle for PC, 1. AZW ebook format that Calibre knows how to read. Instead, it uses the new KFX ebook formatwhich nothing else can read or convert right now. The only way to resume being able to convert downloaded Kindle content is to uninstall Kindle for PC, then reinstall Kindle for PC version 1. OS X version. Once you have, go to the Tools menu, then Options, then General and uncheck the box to install updates automaticallyand then just dont update. Its unclear how long Amazon will support these older versions, or that theyll be available for download. But even if Amazon stops, those who own older Kindle hardware devices will still be able to obtain AZW format ebooks via the expedient of downloading them to the Kindle then copying them across via USB. Meanwhile, I suppose we can hope that Calibre adds the ability to read KFX files sometime soon. Update In a comment, Steve notes you can also download AZW files by going to your Manage Your Content and Devices page, then clicking on the button next to the title you want and selecting Download transfer via USB. Even if the Kindle device you choose is a newer model, it still sends you the. AZW file format. If you found this post worth reading and want to kick in a buck or two to the author, click here.
