\cf0 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 and Adobe Adept (including nook) ePub and PDF ebooks.\
\
To remove the DRM of Kindle ebooks from eInk Kindles, eReader pdb ebooks, Barnes & Noble ePubs, or Mobipocket ebooks, you must first run DeDRM application (by double-clicking it) and set some additional Preferences including:\
\
eInk Kindle (not Kindle Fire): 16 digit Serial Number\
Barnes & Noble ePub:  Name and CC number or key file  (bnepubkey.b64)\
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.\
