I'm glad it is solved. Here is a little info for you.

There are three ways to embed the metadata changes you make in calibre to your ePub.

Save to Disk
Send to Device
Conversion to ePub

When you converted your books the metadata (author, title, isbn etc) should have been embedded in the book. If you converted the book first then changed the Author name in calibre the author name wouldn't be embedded unless you used calibre to send the file to the device.

So dragging and dropping the files directly into the My Documents folder would by-pass adding any changes you made in calibre after you had converted the book.
