Well I spent some time looking for a free tool that allows me to add the author and Title of a book. I found this tool here it's called ByCePDFMetaEdit
Direct download

Enjoy

For the record, I've just been to hell and back and others experiencing similar issues might want to take note (similar being frequent (very) when viewing PDF files). I toyed with this for hours cursing Calibre and doing hard resets until I eventully found a pattern. Files that had been edited with the above tool. It seems through a large number of samples that any PDF files I have will view perfectly on the device before editing with this tool and then after will crash randomly after a few pages. It's a shame really as this looked like a great tool. Any troubleshooting tips? At the moment I'm going with the 'buy Acrobat Pro' option...
