Garmin Express not detecting my F2

Assuming this is the fenix 2. When connected to the Mac the fenix 2 should mount as a drive called GARMIN. Connect the clip to a USB port on the back or side of the Mac, avoid keyboard USB ports and make sure the face of the watch shows the USB symbol. Verify that the fenix 2 is being seen by the Mac first? Which Mac OS are you running?

I have the same issue. I've set up as you descibe but watchface is not displaying the USB symbol? Do I need to change any setting on the watch?

It sounds like you might have the watch in Garmin Mode instead of Mass Storage (this setting should appear when you plug the watch into the computer). In case it is not please check the following setting:

• Hold the Menu button
  
• Select Settings
  
• Select System
  
• Select USB Mode
  
• Select Mass Storage
  
• Plug device back to the computer

I am running OSX 10.9.3

I am in USB mode - and still having issues. This is my second watch (second F2) with the same issue. I have to restart my computer often to get it to be detected. No other device that i plug into USB gives me this issue.

thanks.

I have exactly the same issue here with my F2. Tried on both OSX 10.9.3 and Windows 7 computers and on both modes "Garmin" and "Mass Storage". F2 charges normally on USB.

When you say it's charging normally are you using the original Garmin cable? Read through this FAQ to see if it helps https://support.garmin.com/support/searchSupport/case.faces?caseId={e3ba99d0-fccb-11dc-ec92-000000000000}

Hey SUSSAMB.

Thanks for the quick comment.

I'm using the original cradle that comes with Fenix 2.

If you are still having problems using multiple computers, and the original cable we will need to master reset the device:
