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:
- Confirm your Cozyla device is connected to the internet.
- Confirm you selected the correct Google account during setup.
- Confirm the calendar events you want to display were selected during setup.
- Confirm the events are assigned to the correct member or profile.
- 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:
- Check whether the new member has a linked calendar selected as the sync target.
- Check whether the event was removed from the original linked calendar account.
- Add a Profile directly to the event instead of reassigning the event owner.
- Consider using a dedicated Family Profile for shared third-party calendar events.
