Garmin connect won't sent training plans to Forerunner 305

Hi,
My first post, please help!

I'm trying to load a Garmin marathon training plan onto my 305 with no luck at all. The device is clearly connected OK as I can upload all my data to the Garmin connect website. It won't, however, download training plans to my device. The plan is in my Garmin connect calendar and '72 workouts from Dec 23, 2014 - Apr 12, 2015 ' are waiting to upload in the sidebar, they just don't sync (even though GC says they have)!

I've tried using modern and classic interfaces, no luck. I also have an old training plan on my device (it worked fine back in 2011) that I now can get rid of...not sure if the two issues are related....?

Am using a PC BTW.

Thanks so much!

    I am having the same problem but with my Forerunner 301 -
    I have previously downloaded workouts to the device but now when I click to try and send teh 38 scheduled workouts it says cannot send them because it says workout information does not satisy requirements or something. Says to check there is room on the device for workouts. I deleted old history but still not working .

    Any ideas?

    Are you using Internet Explorer? If so, try adding *.garmin.com to the list of trusted sites.
    In IE go to Tools > Internet Options > Security > Trusted Sites > Sites. Uncheck "require server verification." Enter *.garmin.com, click Add, click OK. Close IE. Restart IE.

    This applies to courses and workouts.

    I'm having the same issue as well. It will load customized workouts, however the half marathon training plan will not load, no matter how many times I've tried. Very frustrating.

    same problem on the Forerunner 410 sending heart rate zones. Says it has synced, but it remains in the 'queue' on my connect page, and from what I can tell, the zones are still incorrect on my forerunner.

    Same issue

    Same issue, Forerunner 305 and Mac OSX. Tried uninstalling everything, hard reset on the device, different browsers, etc. No luck! The Garmin Express Plug-in says "There was an error syncing with Garmin Connect". Really disappointed, I wanted to use this device with my training plan for my first half marathon!

    Has anybody found a solution to this? I'm not able to upload the training schedule from my calendar as well.

    I have also run into the same problem with my Forerunner 305 (v 2.90) but after doing the following it worked for me!

    I changed to Classic view, went to Plan - Calendar, clicked the arrow at the top right corner and selected to send the training plan to my device. It asked me to install Garmin Communicator Plugin which I did* (the browser had to be closed to complete installation). I restarted the browser (Safari) and entered Garmin Connect once again (in Classic view) and tried again with the arrow to send training plans to my device. And it worked! I now have about 60 training plans in my 305 (Training / Workouts / Advanced).

    * I run a MacBook Air with OS X 10.10.3.
