Is it possible to "join" tracks?

I know you could do this at MotionBased - join two tracks into one - but I can't find this feature here. Any ideas?

    I need to know how to do this too, for some reason my etrex venture records 1 walk in about 5 tracks and I need to be able to combine them. Any help would be much appreciated.

    Thanks

  • Any answers? It's not possible?

    Every ride, I have broken tracks where reception was lost. This feature is essential. Without it, the Upload is useless.

    This is a down grade from Motion Based.

    When is Garmin Connect going to at least come up to speed where Motion Based was years ago!

    I have a similar problem, whenever my unit loses power or shuts down, it uploads as a new activity even though its the same track log.

    I've successfully joined tracks from my Nuvi 500 by importing them into MapSource then using the Join option. Hope this helps!

    Join Tracks icon grayed out and inactive

    I've updated to the latest Map Source version, but the "Join Tracks" function is grayed out (both the icon and in the Tools list).
    Any idea why it isn't active?
    I can't display 2 tracks in the same window, which may be why, If so, any ideas on how to display 2 tracks in the same window?

    You have to have all the tracks you wish to combine selected then choose join tracks, also keep in mind if you already uploaded the activities to the website it will not let you upload the newly joined tracks. You get a message saying that the activity was already uploaded.

    If you combine in Mapsource, you just need to delete the corresponding activities from GC to upload the GPX file from the combined activity. Remember to save as GPX as it doesn't understand GDB.
