Courses not syncing from Garmin Connect/komoot

Hey there,

just recieved my new Edge 1040 and configured it as good as possible.

Only thing which is left: I don't have any courses saved on my device. I have a lot of different courses in Garmin Connect and they usually sync without any problems to my Edge 1030 plus. But even after multiple syncs there are no courses on my Edge 1040.

Sending courses manually to the device from Garmin Connect app does work correct. But I would like to have the old auto sync back ...

Any tips for me?

Thank you!

auto sync works for new courses but i think historical ones need manually pushing over.

I have also had this, I have solved the problem as follows.
Kommot account disconnected from Garmin Connect and then logged into my account at connect.garmin.com/.../ and deleted all routes there.
Then I reconnected Komoot and all routes were synchronized on the device.

If you still have your older unit you can side load the course.

Copy the contents of the Garmin\Courses from your older unit to the Garmin\NewFiles folder on the 1040. This will import them.

its much easier just to click on the route in garmin connect mobile and click send to device (3 dots in the top corner)

Thank you for all your answers.

I think I can live with "Send to device" option before I start a trip. Just happy that this is no problem with the new software and new courses should sync in the future.

really, 1040 auto-syncs newly created courses? That would be awesome :-). I'll check.
