I've never used it so others may be able to help if you need help.
No, the previous poster's problem is that he's copying the book from the Calibre folder. That's something you must never do. Do a "Save to Disk" from Calibre, and it will be correctly exported with the changed metadata.

The Calibre library folder should be regarded as a "black box". Don't mess with it, or copy files out of it. To get files out of the Calibre library, export them using Calibre itself, using either "Send to Device" or "Save to Disk".
