I wonder of anyone else has had a problem when importing multi-day events from Google calendar (using the one-way sync implemented in the latest update)? In my case, multi-day events (like conferences) are imported as single day events only. In addition, for some reason, full day events are assigned a time (in my case, the calendar assigns full day events to start at 19:00 and to end at 23:59).

I am experiencing the same problem. Though the events start at 01:00 and end at 23:59.

I have a similar problem with a generic CalDAV acccount. But the events are not displayed at all, I only get a notificatin about a missed event.

I've tried, may times and with many shared Google calendars, to create a new all-day event that lasts more than one day.. The result is that, once I sync its google account, the event isn't shown on more than one day but only on the first!.. [v2.0.1.11]

To solve this issue, I've found this temporary solution:

1) create the multi-day even

2) set the starting day and the ending day

3) set the ending time to 23:59 (11:59 PM) <- this is the problem!

4) set "All the day" option

5) set all other desired options

6) save

I made some tests, and if step 3) is missed, the event gets created, but after a while (putting Calendar in background or closing it) it appears only on the first day, so that I have to edit it again, following steps from 3).

I hope it helps.. But a solution is needed, Calendar needs known improvements.
