I have set up my google caledar to sync to calendar budget…works great with my android; however i am having issues with the updates on the calendar.  my changes i have made in calendar budget is not being seen (sync’d) to google/to my EVO android phone.  all calendars on google and my phone are same from previous day. 

Is there something i may be doing wrong?  or is this possible issue?  appreciate any help with this matter.  i love the whole concept and cant wait for an actual app for android…
thanks, gary

I’ll check it out. When we originally tested it, it just depends on how often the mobile device/google calendar refreshes the data from CalendarBudget.
We’ll check again. We have a number of improvements to the regular calendar interface coming in a few days, after that, I’ll check on this problem.

Thanks.  i see that google calendar now matches calendar budget and just now my phone calendar matches google / calendar budget…i guess i may need to be patient. 

weird though…i was forcing manual sync of my phone to google, it would show it is syncing; however no new data/changes would be showing.

thanks for all you have and are doing with you’re site.  i’m a freak about budgeting…and was / is always trying new formats…kinda became a hobby.

I know what you mean. That’s why I created CalendarBudget :)
If you are syncing through Google calendar – it caches things and only updates every (trying to remember) 6 hours or so. For your Android phone, rather than sync the CalendarBudget feed through google, enter the CalendarBudget account feed directly into your phone as a subscribed calendar and it will update much more quickly (every 15 minutes if you set it that often).
In my case, I use m account feed on my google calendar AND separately on my iPod Touch. The google calendar always takes a lot longer to sync just because it caches things longer (I’m sure to alleviate server load).
