Hi all: I’m ready to pull my hair out…LOL But for the life of me I can NOT get the Kindlegen to work on my Mac.
Scrivener keeps telling me during compile that the version I have is not the right Kindlegen and I should uninstall and re-install from Amazon. I’ve now done that 4 times and it’s the same each time.
I unzip it and put the folder into Applications…tell Scrivener where it is…but it doesn’t like it.
No…this is the first time…(or 4X) I’ve downloaded it. So I don’t understand why it’s having so much trouble. When I look at the ‘kindlegen’ file in the folder, right after download from Amazon, it looks blank. Is that usual?
I decided to compile in a .epub format…took it into Kindle and it was ‘successfully’ converted to .mobi Then to see it, I downloaded the Enhanced Previewer…put it into my Apps file…and when I tried to open it…it just danced around the dock. When I clicked on it…it closed. Tried to ‘open with’ on the .mobi file…no go. sigh
Is this all Lion? Anyone else have problems with these two Amazon apps??
