Sync problems: Training calendar runs don't show up, workouts don't sync at all

For the past few weeks I've been unable to get my training plan from Garmin Connect to show up correctly on my Forerunner 235. When I navigate on the watch to "Training Calendar", it says to download your training calendar from Garmin Connect. I've tried this a gazillion times. I've wiped the entire watch back to factory settings multiple times, I've canceled and deleted my training plans and restarted with a different plan... without fail, none of the workouts show up in the training calendar on the watch. They are, however, hiding in the workouts section.

I've also discovered that new workouts that I make online with Garmin Connect aren't being synced. I've specifically gone into the app, selected the individual workout, sent it to the device, and Garmin Connect says it worked, the watch shows a transfer successfully finishes... no new workouts.

Anyone else having similar issues? And any idea how to fix it? I'm getting frustrated, the calendar view on the watch is key to keeping me on track.
  • how is this still not solved? i can't believe i'm holding a $700 watch in my hand and can't get my training plan on it! I've never been so frustrated!! Garmin, please take care of this

  • Has this been fixed?  I am having the same problem with my Fenix 3.

    How your ´engineering team is actively working on this issue. It has been given a high priority’ and I still have the same problem on my Fenix 6x sapphire. Explain please, how I’m having the same issue after one whole year of your response that you guys are ‘Working on it’

    Hi, i have this issue on my 245 music. I did a benchmark run for the coach and then when i tried to use again for the next session just asked me to download training plan from connect. I did this and resynced many times but still the same message.

    1 second solution is not working for everybody. Stop pushing that.

    Why not? In most cases it helps quite fine. If it does not work for you, it does not mean other people won't be glad to fix it in that way.

    It is not possible to edit the garmin coach exercises, so if people get this issue when on a gamin coach plan, they can't use that solution. I am on week 12 of a half marathon plan, and all of a sudden the garmin coach workouts are not syncing. I have tried every answer in this thread numerous times, nothing works.

    Well, I wouldn't say in most cases, as we can all see. Just don't push it and act like it is official and people are stupid if not doing it.

  • Sorry to disappoint you, but I will continue offering the solution, since I see that it usually helps (as you can also easily see by reading this thread). I am sorry if it does not work for you, but it is no reason for hiding the simple hack from others.
