Google Calendar sync issues

I like the calendar app that comes with the Samsung S3 better than Google Calendar app, however recently the calendar additions that I put onto my phone did not sync with my desktop google calendar. I was sure to put my new calendar items on my google calendar portion of my phone (not the samsung calendar, as you can choose which calendar you wish the item to be on). The items that I have recently put on my desktop google calendar DO sync with my phone, but not vice versa. Does anyone have an answer to this, or it is a glitch with Jelly Bean perhaps?

I had the same problem.

Have since discovered two things. 

     First, many of my entries were on the phone calendar only.

     Second, the Google calendar web page does not refresh if you sync from the phone.

I changed the color of my calendar on the Google calendar web page to green (the phone calendar is blue).

Then I went through all the items in the phone that were blue and changed the calendar to the Google calendar and ran a sync.

Finally, I changed the month on the Google calendar web page and then went back to force a refresh.

All of the missing items now appear.

Hope this helps.

Let me know if this is a solution.
