Erminig only lets you sync it with Google calendar, and is very simple and works very well. Exactly two clicks to do the update, and setting up a calendar is a piece of cake. Apps can't always be set up out of the box to work with unrelated apps/data... ...So anyway I removed the entries from Erminig and re-added them (took all of a minute), and now everything is hunkey-dorey again! (Apparently the sync process remembers events that have been synced and not changed and doesn't waste bandwidth re-syncing them.)
