The google calendar syncs onto my calendar app but the details - name - phone, number etc., comes out as unreadable computer language. How do I clear this up?
Find a friend who's computer-savvy so he can determine if it's the calendar app or the Google Calendar that has the problem. Then you'll be able to post a question about how to fix what's actually broken (and to the proper place - we don't get involved in Google's sites not working).
Welcome to Android Central! Can you clarify -- when you mention Google Calendar, are you talking about events that you can see on the calendar.google.com website? Or are you trying to sync events from an Outlook calendar to your Google Calendar, and then having that sync to your phone's calendar app?
