Problems with syncing Garmin Connect & MapMyRun

I have both accounts. I have opened both in same browser. I activated connecting to Garmin Connect through MapMyRun website. It prompted permission in my Garmin Connect account which I accepted. It appears to be connected and states last sync but my workout from Garmin never actually transferred into MapMyRun. I need that sync to happen to there is seamless transfer from one into the other.
  • I am having exactly the same issue. I have done the same steps. Permission granted etc, but won't sync (even though in mapmyrun it says it is connected to garmin connect)

    Help!

    Yep same here. It all started with the ongoing troubles with MyFitnessPal syncing since ~Christmas. And just when I thought it was resolved it all starts happening again, but this time additionally with my Mapmyrun workouts not syncing into GarminConnect activities. My last workout in GC is from Jan 29th! Gah! I've tried disconnecting and reconnecting like the above poster.

    I would send a support request but suspect it would fall on deaf ears. I bought a Vívofit for my wife at Xmas and she has never managed to sync it with her Garmin Connect app on Samsung Galaxy S4 Android (runtime error when syncing). She sent Garmin a support request with no response.

    I try to defend my Garmin purchase but they are making it very hard to justify it!!! Just fix it!

    For note: I run GC on my iPhone6

    Well I haven't used my Vívofit and GC for much more than as a
    Watch to easily tell the time. I have uninstalled GC, MapmyRun and MyFitnessPal and reconnected them all.

    My last MMR workout was Feb 26 (when I gave up using apps altogether), my last MFP cardio exercise entry was also Feb 26 and my last GC activity recorded was Jan 29.

    This all just "stopped working" without any changes from me. My wife doesn't even wear her Vívofit anymore because she never got a response from Garmin (neither have I) and she has never ever gotten a successful sync between her VF and GC on her Samsung Galaxy S4.

    I am severely pissed off! I don't care where the root cause of the fault is, work together and sort it out!
  • I only got my Forerunner last week so this is my first post on the forums here! I was trying to figure out how to link Garmin to MapMyRun and came across this thread. If you are using Chrome as your browser the Garmin Communicator plugin is no longer supported by Chrome. However, it does work with Internet Explorer so I set it up in IE and now my Garmin is automatically syncing with MapMyRun/MapMyFitness. Hope this might help someone else.

    Forerunner works with Strava no problem

    I have experienced all the same problems on this thread trying to get synched with MapMyRun. Even tried switching to Chrome and reporting problem to MapMyRun. No resolution at all which sucks because I have training friends there. Any way - switched to Strava and synched activity immediately. Not sure what's wrong with MapMyRun, but clearly they are struggling with basic technical issues.
  • Importing workouts from MMF

    Does anyone have any updates on this? For years I have used MMF/MMR and now I would like to import all of those workouts into Garmin Connect.
