Auto Upload / Sync from Garmin Training Center

I'd really like to have my data auto-sync from the desktop(Garmin Training Center) to the Garmin Connect site. Seems silly that you have to take two actions ...The web upload in the browser is quick, but why can't I just find my data there instead of having to manually upload it.

On a Mac ...

You don't have to take 2 steps. Ant agent will do it for you. Go to Garmin Ant Agent, Preferences and click appropriately. See attached.

Why both?

I'm curious why you use both Training Center and Garmin Connect? Are there features in one that are not in the other? I used to use both, but then starting using only Garmin Connect.

Definitely a sync function is needed between the GC and the TC.

There is no point in typing the details twice, once in GC and then in the TC.

This will serve as backup just in case something happens to the data on either side.

Also, several times I ride in places were there is no internet conectivity. Therefore, I must upload the history to the TC (in order to avoid filling the memory in my FR405). After several rides when I go back to a place were I can connect, I must upload each activity and tag one by one again.

Please Garmin, consider this request.

That's great!
But unfortunately this does not work for USB connected devices (like my FR 305).

Those devices DO upload into Garmin Training Centre, but NOT upload onto Garmin Connect.

That would be a supurb feature!!

Sadly, that's one of the drawbacks of using 'old' devices. I can't remember of the top of my head, but either the Mac or the Windoze version has the ability to send directly to GC - I think it's under the File list.

Not quite what you want, but I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for Garmin to give you what you want. The best you can hope for, if you have the GTC without the direct transfer option, is that they provide the same feature across both versions.

Did I just see some pigs fly?
