google calendar repeating events can't be created
UPDATE 2: 20150130
I've tried all the options below -- I do know how to create repeating events. I have same results as before with one update. The repeating events that I created the first week of January for January 17th finally showed up, but i have the same problem as before if i try creating a new repeating event for now or the future -- disappears when the repeating option is set. It shows up if there is no recurrence noted, but the minute you create a repeating event or edit an existing event to be repeating, it disappears -- may to show up some time later -- who knows. Enough people below have had the same symptoms that tells me that it's just not me but something weird going on somewhere -- maybe in the synch or some internal filter -- but can't seem to nail it down.
I just created another repeating event and it doesn't show up on my phone, but if i go to my wife's phone which is synched to the shared google calendar i'm creating the event im, i can see it on her phone -- just not mine -- aarrrgh. so it's syching to google calendar on the google servers,but i just can't see it on my phone. what gives????!!!!
UPDATE 1: I am creating this event on the phone -- what is weird is that the repeating events do show up on google calendar on the web-- i have several now on the web calendar as i tried creating several test version but all failed to show up on the phone but do show up on the web. Thus synching is working as it got from my phone to the google calendar
I can see other events in the same google calendar on the phone and can create and view a single event but not a repeating event.
so repeating events can be created but can't see them in the google android calendar or any other calendar on the phone. weird weird weird.

Using Nexus 6 with 5.0 lollipop using latest version of google calendar
Am trying the following"
Create a weekly repeating event starting january 17, 2015 from 12:00pm to 1:30pm ending march 21.
When i create this event with repeating option , it doesn't show up in the calendar no matter how many times i try it -doesn't show up, i can use repeat daily, weekly, monthly, forever or until a certain date or for a given number of events -- doesn't create the event.
Now if i can create a single event just for january 17, 2015 from 12:300pm to 1:30pm. that doesn't repeat. if you create that single event -- it shows up on the calendar immediately. But then edit the event and make it a repeating event. The event will disappear.
i have rebooted the phone, and haved tried creating using other calendar apps like business calendar and digical -- but same problem -- repeating events just disappear.
Thoughts? Is it just me?
