so that standard Topaz_Tools can be used later if
desired (only works with Kindle Version 1.2.0)
Prerequisites:
- Kindle for Mac.app Version 1.0.0 Beta 1 (27214)
(this is the original version)
or

The directions for use are:
1. double-click to unzip the Kindle_4_Mac_Tools_v1.2.zip
2. open the Kindle_4_Mac_Tools folder
3. double-click on K4Munswindle.pyw
In the window that opens:
hit the first '...' button to locate your Kindle Application
if it is not in /Applications
hit the second '...' button to select an output directory
(defaults to your Desktop)
hit the 'Start' button
After a short delay, your Kindle application should open up automagically
In Kindle for Mac:
- hit the “Home” button to go home.
- double-click on ONE of your books.
This should open the book.
Once the book you want is open
- hit the “Home” button and then exit the Kindle for Mac application
Once you have exited the Kindle for Mac application you should see one of the following:

A Warning message will appear in the Conversion Log indicating

needed to convert it using Topaz_Tools
- If the book you selected was a Mobi book:
MobiDeDRM will be automagically started in the Conversion Log
window and if successful you should find your decoded book in
the output directory.
