If i import data from Strava into Garmin Connect it wont sync over to the Edge 1030 Plus - is there anyway to fix this - have tried troubleshooting guides for syncing problems but no luck so far.
So you want to sync to your Edge 1030? Normally, the only need is to get it to Garmin Connect. You shouldn't need to save all of your activities on the device. If it's a course, then you can send it to your Edge, assuming there's nothing wrong with the course file. Can you zip then attach a sample file, so we can take a look or better understand the issue?
I'm sorry for the confusion. As mentioned, it's not supposed to show up on the Edge, only Garmin Connect.. That is your centralized storage area for all of your activities.
