Inconsistent Metadata

Hello everyone, I just received the newest Kindle on Friday so that I could take advantage of some of the free ebooks my college gives out. One of my professors gave me the epub files to a few of his books and I used Calibre to convert them to mobi. Later, I noticed that his files didn't have covers. At all. Going back a page after opening it led to a page with a title. So I found the covers on the Internet and updated the metadata so that my Kindle would display the covers instead of a title page when going into the book information. Unfortunately one of the three doesn't seem to update. I've deleted my Kindle's library and Calibre library and re-added the cover image in Calibre and then uploaded it again, but to no avail. Is there anything that I can do? I don't mind not seeing the cover when I open the book, but when I tab over into the book settings I'd like for the little box to have the image. That's all I'm asking. What do I need to do?

Thanks for your help!
