Right... So, Garmin, you seem to think it's really clever to remove the sync button from Garmin Express because the devices automatically sync when it's connected - I have read your frustratingly over-simplistic explanation for this. Now please start listening to your users.
When I connect my Edge 800, for some reason on my Mac it takes a long time to mount the SD card drive where I log my activities.
Garmin Express starts syncing when the main drive is mounted, and finishes before the SD card is mounted. This means my activities are NOT UPLOADED.
The only workaround for me is to manually completely quit the app and reload it once both drives are mounted.
Given that there is a button to check for device updates manually, which I think also happens automatically it is REALLY ANNOYING not having a manual sync button.
Can you tell that this is really annoying me yet? My frustration is building every time I come home from a ride. This is so unnecessary.
PLEASE PUT IT BACK! There is no benefit in removing this button and it is annoying a lot of users.
Next time you make a change that provokes a lot of ire from your users please try to understand why it is annoying them rather than simply fobbing everyone off.
Rant over. Hopefully I can now resume my normal calm disposition. (Sorry - this issue and Garmin's response have been progressively winding me up for weeks now.)
