'BMW Nav VI' and Joining Tracks?

Hi all.

This question is for Basecamp (Version 4.8.12 (4.8.12)) on Mac Catalina (10.15.7). The GPS unit is a rebranded Garmin, called BMW Nav VI.

I went for a 100 mile ride on my motorcycle, stopping several times to take photos, eat etc. When I got back and hooked the Nav VI up to my Mac, I see about nine or ten different tracks with today's date. I select them all, right click and join them. And then I get this....

Which is the new 'track' containing all of today's? When I select each of them in turn, none of them has the complete day. There are some that are seven miles, some that are 70. But no one track seems to contain the entire ride.

Help!

Well if you've joined the appropriate tracks one of them must be the full track. I assume you've imported them all to BaseCamp and are trying to do it with the tracks in BaseCamp, as BaseCamp can't manipulate…

None of them will but if you join them together you should get the full track, but you need to select them in the correct order. I'm guessing slightly here as your link shows nothing but a list of tracks.

Hi. I perhaps wasn't clear. The screenshot that I provided is actually the lower-left pane once I have actually created the new track. But which one is it? Even after joining the tracks, there is not a single track with all of the ride. I'm confused....

Ah, that was it! I did keep getting messages that it couldn't change the files on the Garmin. Thank you, Sir!
