If you're going to move databases from local to live - or from any domain to another - you need to change URLs in the database. Also see Moving WordPress « WordPress Codex

You can use these queries in phpmyadmin to change URLs:

UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = replace(option_value, 'http://olddomain.com', 'http://newdomain.com') WHERE option_name = 'home' OR option_name = 'siteurl';

UPDATE wp_posts SET guid = replace(guid, 'http://olddomain.com','http://newdomain.com');

UPDATE wp_posts SET post_content = replace(post_content, 'http://olddomain.com', 'http://newdomain.com');

UPDATE wp_postmeta SET meta_value = replace(meta_value, 'http://olddomain.com', 'http://newdomain.com');

A better method (answer updated 8/01/2014) is to use https://interconnectit.com/products/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/ , which correctly deals with serialized data in the database; the SQL queries abov will break serialied data, and you may lose some theme and ohter options as a result. That script is recommened on the http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress Codex page.

Well its not saved, the stylesheet_url is you current themes url. wp-content/themes/your-theme/ . You current theme's folder name is stored in the database's options table usually wp_options. Where template='your-theme-name'. If you want to change the site url change siteurl row's value in the same table
