Connect not transferring plans to training calendar (it thinks it is though)-FIXED

Former Member

Please help me.... please... I need to get some sleep!
For 3 days I've tried to download training plans to my 235, they are in my Training calendar in Connect on my PC and they appear in the Calendar on my Connect app on my android phone but they do not appear in the training calendar in my 235. I've searched forums and tried fixes but no luck. Here's what happens and what I've done;
Put Garmin training plan into Connect calendar and sent to device (arrow in top R corner). Express opens and sends 43 activities to 235 via USB.
Open training calendar in 235 and message reads 'download your training calendar from garmin connect.'
So, nothing in training calendar but each activity has been placed in My Workouts in the 235, which is no good to me, I want to know what I need to do on a given day by pressing a button on my watch Training-Calendar-Today-Do Workout (which I've done for the last few months for a previous training plan).
I've completed a marathon training plan using the calendar without a problem but I can't get it to work now.

Here's what I've tried to resolve the issue;
Sign in and out of Connect after clearing history and cache on 2 computers using IE, Chrome and Edge browsers.
Disabled adblock and security settings.
Deleted training plans and workouts from calendar and then rescheduled them anew.
Checked and unchecked the activities in Calendar (2 little lines left side of Calendar view).
Synced the 235 around 40 times, checking/changing settings etc. but still the same message 'download your training calendar from garmin connect.'
Please help...........

    This would be great if it worked. My training plans are not being sent to My Workouts, either.

    Thank you for your continued patience. Unfortunately, we don’t have an update as to when this will be resolved, but wanted to provide some steps that may allow you to continue your training.

    The workouts sent to your watch should be available in the ‘My Workouts’ section of the watch, found here (steps vary by device):


    • Access the device’s Menu
    • Select Training
    • Select ‘My Workouts’


    We understand that it is not as convenient, but you may try viewing the Training Calendar in Garmin Connect and match up the day of the week to the workout on the device.

    We have made this thread a sticky and will provide any new information when it is available.

    We are not able to provide a specific time frame at this time. We are working on investigating the issue so that it can be resolved. We are seeing that the workouts are still transferred to the My Workouts section on many fitness wearables. While not as convenient this would be a way to still do the workout that was scheduled on the calendar in the mean time.


    This does not work, as my workouts are not sending from connect to my fenix 3. It seems others above have already reported this issue.

    A fix has been pushed out to production that resolves this issue. We would recommend deleting the workouts off of the device prior to syncing the Training Calendar once more. This will ensure that device processes all of the scheduled workouts correctly and will prevent duplicate workouts from displaying on the device. The quickest way to delete all of the workouts off of the device is to do the following:


    • Connect the device to the computer
    • Open the device as a mass storage device
    • Open the Garmin folder
    • Delete the workouts folder
    • Empty the Trash (if using a Mac)
    • Safely disconnect from the computer


    Once the workouts are deleted off of the device, send the Training Calendar from Connect once more.

    We are leaving this thread open for a little while longer. If you are still not able to sync the Training Calendar please post in this thread.


    Fantastic. Everything is working again on my 225. Thank you for the quick fix Garmin!
