Important: Reassigning Events From Linked Calendars

Third-party calendars, including linked calendar accounts, can only be connected to a single user account.

If you reassign an event from one member to another, the event may:

  • Sync to the new member account if the new member has a linked calendar selected as the sync target
  • Be removed from the original linked calendar account
  • Appear to disappear or sync unexpectedly between members

To avoid issues such as events disappearing or syncing unexpectedly, we recommend adding a Profile directly to the event instead of reassigning it to another member.

Alternatively, you can create a dedicated Family Profile specifically for connecting this type of third-party calendar.

Troubleshooting

Google Calendar Events Do Not Appear

If your Google Calendar events do not appear in Cozyla Calendar:

  1. Confirm your Cozyla device is connected to the internet.
  2. Confirm you selected the correct Google account during setup.
  3. Confirm the calendar events you want to display were selected during setup.
  4. Confirm the events are assigned to the correct member or profile.
  5. Refresh Cozyla Calendar and wait a few minutes for events to sync.

Events Disappear After Reassigning Them

If events disappear after you reassign them to another member:

  1. Check whether the new member has a linked calendar selected as the sync target.
  2. Check whether the event was removed from the original linked calendar account.
  3. Add a Profile directly to the event instead of reassigning the event owner.
  4. Consider using a dedicated Family Profile for shared third-party calendar events.
