Whilst the i OS app is accessible the last time I checked the Kindle App
on the Mac platform had no Accessibility Plugin and the book content
text was not accessible via voiceover.
Certainly the only way I can use the Kindle app on a Mac is via a fusion
Window.
Whilst it is possible to break the DRM of Kindle Books and whilst a
legal defense for doing so may possibly be available for visually
impaired people under the 2003 Act I am not certain that it can be
assumed to hold force without some legal test. So active discussion of
strategies for breaking DRM on this list may not be appropriate. . The
rights of visually impaired people to breach DRM and copyright is linked
to the lack of accessible delivery and on other platforms at least
Amazon has made available a number of accessible alternative, and these
are available on a Mac via boot camp or Fusion. Amazon could
conceivably cite these in justification of preserving the integrity of
their DRM. . I agree that the Mac OS should be a platform that
accessibility should be extended to though.
There are a number of commercial tools and there is nothing to stop you
Googling something like Kindle DRM Removal.

I think the Kindle app for iPad and iPhone is accessible. I’m curious about the
Kindle Mac app myself. I’ve used it on the iPhone though. I think it would be
easier than trying to convert them although I’d like to know how to do that too.

Ok, not sure if this went through earlier but I’m going to resend it hopefully
without all the random. Forgive the crossposting but I’m stumped. I was trying
to find a DrM removal tool to read Kindle books in Voice Dream, and in the
process realized that I needed to possibly find out how to move around in
documents and data to transfer things to my phone, say to Voice Dream, or
remove a book from Kindle, to run through the protection tool since I don’t
think the version of Kindle for the Mac is accessible, and have hit a brick
wall. Can someone direct me in all this where to find the tools necessary, how
to get to documents and data running the latest iTunes 12.1 running the latest
Yosemite, and an iPhone 5 S running iOs 8.1.3. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks again and take care y’all.
