I have converted some books from ePub to MOBI using calibre, changed the metadata but it is not showing the changes in Kindle for iPad2.

The author's name appears as Chrichton, Michael in Kindle but in Calibre both the author name and sort name is Crichton, Michael.
I have tried changing it to something random but it does not update.
I have deleted the file from both my Pc and iPad and tried it from scratch but it does not change.
I have downloaded the metadata and is does not change.
I have view the prf file and it is correct.

This is happening for about 12 books with author and/or titles not updating.

Anyone have any suggestions?
