Approach S60 - ‘ No Courses Found ‘

So I decided to update my Approach S60 by connecting it to my laptop only to find that my watch now can’t find any courses when this was not an issue prior to the update.

I‘ve read all of the posts on here about the same issue and followed all of the instructions multiple times. It’s really frustrating because the reason I bought the watch was for the golf gps function.

After many attempts to fix the issue myself, I called Garmin for help and was told to follow the instructions I’ve followed multiple times and if that doesn’t work then I’ll need to buy a new watch because my 4 year old watch is out of warranty.. REALLY? That’s the solution… just go and buy a new watch! 

This is unacceptable don’t you think? The watches aren’t cheap so I didn’t expect that they would just be disposable. 

Any help other than ‘buy a new watch’ would be appreciated
