DeDRM is an application that packs all of the python dm removal software into
one easy to use program that remembers preferences and settings.
It works without manual configuration with Kindle for Mac ebooks, Adobe
Digital Editions Adept ePub and PDF ebooks, and Barnes & Noble NOOK
Study ebooks.
To remove the DRM of Kindle ebooks from eInk Kindles, Kindle for Android,
other Barnes & Noble ePubs, eReader pdb ebooks, or Mobipocket ebooks,
you must first run DeDRM application (by double-clicking it) and set some
additional Preferences, depending on the origin of your ebook files:
eInk Kindle (not Kindle Fire):
16 digit Serial Number, found in your Amazon account web pages.
Android Kindle app:
backup.ab file retrieved with adb command-line tool using command
adb backup com.amazon.kindle
Barnes & Noble (not from NOOK Study):
Your account email and password, so the key can be retrieved from the
Barnes & Noble servers.
An active internet connection is required for this.
eReader:
Name and last 8 digits of CC number
Mobipocket:
10 digit PID
A final preference is the destination folder for the DRM-free copies of your
ebooks that the application produces. This can be either the same folder as
the original ebook, or a folder of your choice.
Once these preferences have been set, you can drag and drop ebooks (or
folders of ebooks) onto the DeDRM droplet to remove the DRM.
This program requires Mac OS X 10.4 or above. It will not work on Mac OS X
10.3 or earlier.
Installation
Mac OS X 10.4 only: You must first install Python 2.7.3 or later 2.7.x version
Use
1. To set the preferences, double-click the application and follow the

application icon when it is not running.
Troubleshooting
A log is created on your desktop (DeDRM.log) containing detailed information
from all the scripts. If you have any problems decrypting your ebooks, copy
