You could say that their war was from 44 BC to 30 BC and you would not be wrong. The two men never got along even though they were political allies and even in-laws. But the actual "hot" war began at Actium in 31 BC and ended in 30 BC when Octavian entered Alexandria. The war lasted only one year.

What conflict did Augustus have with mark Antony and Cleopatra?

Augustus, who was known as Octavian at the time, had a conflict over power. The conflict was between Antony and Octavian, not so much Cleopatra. Cleopatra was simply a handy tool for Octavian to use to rally forces against Antony. Even though it seemed that Cleopatra had her own ambitions, they were secondary to the major conflict between the men, which was all about power and the sole rule of the Roman empire.

Octavius and Antony have a heated argument about what?

Octavius' name changed to Octavian after he was adopted by Julius Caesar. Octavian and Mark Antony did not like each other. Octavian thought that Mark Antony was arrogant and an inept administrator. Mark Antony did not like the fact that Caesar had made Octavian his heir. Their conflict went way beyond a heated argument. It escalated into a civil war over who would become the sole ruler of the Roman territories. Octavian was in charge of the western part and Mark Antony was in charge of the eastern part. A propaganda war started between the two men. Eventually Octavian found an excuse to declare war on Mark Antony's ally, Cleopatra VII of Egypt, knowing that Antony would come to her help. This has been called the Final Civil War of the Roman Republic. Octavian won and Cleopatra and Mark Antony committed suicide. Octavian became the sole ruler of Rome, established rule by emperors and was the first Roman emperor with the tile of Augustus.
