What's new in Garmin Connect after Site-Maintenance?

Former Member over 14 years ago

It seems the last site update was 5 months ago.

Anything news added to Garmin Connect after the site maintenance of today? Maybe options like Social Media (invite friends, build a friends list, etc). Anything new?!

If not, are there any plans?

The Garmin Admins are very quiet about this..

Bottom left on your Dashboard - What's New?

But here it is for your convenience:

Changes to Garmin Connect?

I know one thing has changed...I cannot upload anything...either directly from my Edge 500, my FR60, or even manually. Clicking on the "Upload Button" gets me to the upload screen, but I don't even get a message saying no devices are detected and even having the option of uploading manually.

Not ideal to say the least.

Thanks for the hint to the 'what's new' in the bottom left.

But what about Web 2.0? Why not building a community on Garmin Connect?

Inviting friends, accepting friend-request, see how your friends doing, sending messages, etc. If you want to tie customers, this is a way to do it.

Garmin Connect is a great site but with such a feature it would be even greater.

It appears as though ability to export non-GPS activities is now finally restored!!!

Edit: Apparently it just doesn't work with Firefox anymore.

Since the update neither of my computers will upload data. It's just blank...not even a searching for device message. :( I'm not a happy camper at all!!!

Clear your browser's cache and see if that works. It fixed the problem with Safari on my Mac, and uploads are working fine now.

Well, the did not include Time in Zones as they have been promising for MONTHS now...:(

The only change that I notice is that now I can't do any uploading. Cleared the cache, tried both IE and FireFox, checked to see if any plug-ins were functioning. Nope. Nada. No can upload.

I got the blank upload screen in Safari, but it worked fine in Firefox.
