I have added some files to Calibre that had 'home made' covers.

What am I missing, I assume I am just having yet another senior moment
nope not a senior moment. what you need to do after you change a cover is to run a conversion (converting from a format to the same format works fine). this adds the new cover to the actual file you send to your reader.
