I’m only missing about 100 books, not too many to add in by hand if I can figure out which ones they are! After all, I have about 800 books purchased in Kindle and about 700 in Calibra. Simple solution, get the 2 sets of lists into files and compare them by hand. So I decided to first figure out which books were missing from my Calibre Library as compared to the Kindle library.
That requires that I know where all the book files are, know which ones have already been entered into Calibre and which ones are not yet entered. I want to have, in Calibre, a clean set of all my kindle books all without DRM as a spare backup copy. So then I backed out to what is the goal: Several hours of trying to figure out how to automate that process and I gave up. azw file by hand or create a zip file in a special format that contains all the books. There are tools to decryot and de-DRM the new files but they require that you either individually navigate to each sub folder and select the. But then I ran into the problem that the newer version of Kindle books consist of a different format and Calibre cannot import them automatically. The solution to process sub folders in Hazel works just fine.
OK I’m way down a rabbit hole and can’t climb out…
