how to add author's name to existing entry in Adobe Digital Editions

[sherrycwd]

I have several books listed as Author: Unknown in my Adobe Digital Editions.  After removing these titles from Digital Edition's library, I have added the authors names to a file with these books, and then added them into Digital Editions, but it still shows Author:  Unknown.

I suspect you need to change the author somewhere in the metadata.

Are these DRM books or non-DRM?

If they are DRM, it may be difficult to change.

If they are non-DRM, try using the free Calibre ( http://calibre-ebook.com/ ) instead of ADE;

it has more editing features and is generally a better written program.
