login with garmin connect account takes forever

Do you mean Connect or Express, just that you've posted in the Express forum but are complaining about Connect?

Logging into the forums or some other Garmin site? I ask, as this topic is in the Garmin Express forum.

Snap :)

at the garmin express softwarefor windows desktop

i find my watch , select it, then it wants me to create or login into my account, there it loads forever

Same problem here! Garmin Express for Windows.
When I want to add my Edge, it asks for a login, the form appears, I submit it, and then the rotating animation spins forever, making it completely unusable, because there's no way around logging in.

Note, that I tried submitting wrong credentials, which causes an error message. So errors work, success fails!

same problem - since garmin express update 6.9.1.0.
i just updated to 6.10.0.0 - still the same problem.

i start garmin express -> Add a Device -> i can find my Forerunner 910xt -> Add Device -> Pairing -> Sign In -> "This may take a minute..." and thats it!!! it stuck at "This may take a minute..."

So it's now finding your device? Seems like you need to set up a Connect account?

In my case, the device is found, the login to my existing account takes forever after submitting the credentials..
I guess the web login API is broken or became incompatible with Garmin Express..

Possible to try on a different machine and/or different account? Just wanted to narrow down whether it's your computer or your account or something else.
