Garmin Express 6.4 Will not sync with Edge 200

Former Member over 7 years ago

Since updating to the latest Garmin Express (6.4) my edge 200 will not sync. It get stuck in an endless loop. All was fine before the update, also have tried the obvious things (different lead, restarts etc)
Any idea how i can get this working again? Attached is the screen that never changes - ever turning blue wheel ciq.forums.garmin.com/.../1341908.png

Delete device and readd?

Thanks for your response. I've actually rolled back to 6.3 and deleted device and re-added and that seems to solve the issue for the minute. Hopefully all is well and will check after my next ride. Staying away from 6.4 for a while!

Same problem here.
- Mac OSX High Sierra
- Garmin Express 6.4.0.0
- Garmin Forerunner 410

Same problem with 6.3.0. I cannot sync it since January 2018, maybe after updating to High Sierra or after updating Garmin Express, I'm not sure.

I've deleted the device and re-added with no luck.

Thanks in advance,

Your issue is the High Sierra update as it removes the legacy USB drivers used by old Garmin devices.

However, there appears to be a second issue with 6.3 to 6.4 which prevents express finding new activities on old devices. I have an Edge 305 and it syncs fine with 6.3 but on 6.4 it thinks it has synced but actually it completely ignores new activities.

My Edge 200 will pair with GE version 6.4 but my FR70 will not. So I have rolled back to version 6.3 and all is fine. It seems that FR70 is no longer supported by Garmin after v6.3, so what happens to all of us that have the FR70? The new watches eg Forerunner have a very poor battery life compared with the year or so of the FR70, so why would I want to give up my FR70 for a more costly upgrade? Come on Garmin get it sorted out.
