Dear Maintainer,

 * What led up to the situation?

"Google Calendar and Tasks" calendar created and viewed in KOrganizer.

 * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
   ineffective)?

New calendar entry added via the Google web interface whilst KOrganizer is running.
The local view of the calendar is then updated.

 * What was the outcome of this action?

This new calendar entry is never displayed locally.
The same problem occurs when an existing calendar event is changed remotely, the
changes are never shown locally.
The only way to keep an up-to-date Google Calendar is to use KOrganizer, ie.
calendar syncing works in one direction only (KDE -> Google).

To fix the problem once created, you must delete the local copy and recreate.

Andy.

Hi Andy,

sorry for the rather late reply, but do you still encounter this issue
even with the current version of KDE PIM in unstable/testing ?

With the current KDE PIM in testing a similar issue still exists which I
experienced recently, but this had an additional complication of a KOrganizer
crash involved.  I have not done extensive testing, but if I remember to
untick the default "Blocks me for other events" then calendar events do not
seem to "go missing".  I have a feeling that it is overlapping events, one of
which has "Blocks me for other events", which causes a problem - a situation
which should not occur, but is allowed!

Andy.
