If you find that the DeDRM plugin is not working for you (imported ebooks still have DRM - that is, they won't convert or open in the calibre ebook viewer), you should make a log of the import process by deleting the DRMed ebook from calibre and then adding the ebook to calibre when it's running in debug mode. This will generate a lot of helpful debugging info that can be copied into any online help requests. Here's how to do it:

- Remove the DRMed book from calibre.
- Click the Preferences drop-down menu and choose 'Restart in debug mode'.
- Once calibre has re-started, import the problem ebook.
- Now close calibre.
