Import vs Subscribe - Google Calendar -> Zoho Calendar

Import vs Subscribe - Google Calendar -> Zoho Calendar

I am so frustrated I hope someone can help. I am trying to connect my Google Calendars (about 5 of them) to Zoho calendar.

First I try "Import Calendar by URL". I give it the Private URL from one of my Google calendars and it looks like it worked ("says Imported successfully") but no events ever show up (even though I see my calendar on the left and can check and uncheck it).

Then I tried "Subscribe to" because there is no definition between "Import" and "Subscribe" on this site so I thought maybe that is what I needed. I was able to "Subscribe" to 3 of my calendars using my Private URL and the events appeared! But any more than 3 and it won't take. It doesn't give an error, just doesn't show my events or my calendar on the left. Plus, the ones I am subscribed to do not update when I update Google Calendar. Lastly, the events on my subscribed calendars aren't appearing on my dashboard or in agenda or anything.

My goal is to keep Google Calendar since I really like it (and have my iPhone app and Google desktop app and everything synced together). But I want to see everything on my calendars on my dashboard for Zoho and if possible update those calendars from Zoho Calendar and Zoho CRM. I want everything to play nice if I try to use Zoho for more and more. 

Is this possible? If so, can you give me a step-by-step on how to make this happen since nothing on the forums or help docs seem to answer this.

Thanks!
Jenn
