What is left in the log makes it very clear that calibre thought it needed to send metadata for every book. I don't know why. Did you modify a custom column? In any event, the important question is "did it transfer all metadata again on the next connect?" If so, and if nothing was changed, then I might yet again have a problem in calibre's cache management.
I think I may know why the metadata was being sent again. If I connect to Calibre on my laptop and then connect to the pc again, will that trigger the metadata to be sent again? I just connected to my laptop again and it sent metadata.

The Calibre library on my laptop is a copy of the one on my pc, and I just looked at the files - the opf file has the date of when I copied it so it's different than the pc. I'm on vacation without my tech support - I'll have to figure out how to copy the library from dropbox in win 7 without changing the dates.
