Asset API not updating properly?

Greetings.

I was assuming that since whenever I change stuff on my character (training queue, ISK, ect), it's reflected fairly quickly (within 10 min).

So here's my issue. It doesn't seem like assets updates (or if it does, it's not updating properly). At first, I thought it was a problem with EveHQ. using the Prism addon and clicking on assets, it's incorrect. For example. I have a cargo container where I store loot. After I did some ratting, I docked and moved the loot to the cargo container. Later I move the loot to another station. When I look at Prism/Assets, it still shows loot in my ship, in the cargo container, and at the new station. No matter what I did, I could not get it to only show where the loot actually was. Deleted cache, reentered API, ect. So I figured it was just EvEHQ being screwy.

I download and install JEveAssets. I set up my guy, and look at my assets, and low and behold, the exact same problem.

I then check EveMON. Once again, the exact same issue. I moved all that loot hours ago, but it still shows it all over the place. I think it's updating the new locations, but not deleting the old ones, so in the 3rd party apps, there are ghost items, at least that is my theory.

If anyone can tell me what to do to fix this, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks

The time it takes for the api to update depends per call. Assets take longer than other calls, http://wiki.eve-id.net/APIv2_Char_AssetList_XML Check the cachedUntil value of the api result for when it will update again.
