Single .fit file won't sync

Former Member over 4 years ago

I did a nearly 7 mile run today to kick off the new year and it won't sync. I see a lot of posts about this, but I haven't been able to fix mine. Also, I noticed that the file is named very differently that previous runs. Can anyone help? Zip file dropped into this post.5102.B13B2029.zip

Former Member, this will work for you - B13B2029-fixed.zip

Unzip the file then import into Garmin Connect using the import data page.

Repaired using Fit File Repair Tool.

Some tips to help minimize the occurrence of corrupt fit files:

Keep the number of files in the \GARMIN\ACTIVITY folder on the device’s file system to a minimum using these directions: Removing Recorded Activities to Free Up Space on a Garmin Fitness Device
If you delete the files in your activity folder with a Mac computer, then empty the trash folder before you unplug your device from the computer.
Regularly check for firmware updates.
If issues with corrupt files persist, contact Garmin Support.

I'll clean out my files so it doesn't happen again.

I am such a data geek and this made me very happy :)
