This is a workaround from the Garmin-Support, if the Edge is in a boot loop or does not boot in mass storage mode:
1. Press and hold the power button until the device turns off. NOTE: It is important that the Edge remains turned off and does not attempt to restart. To do this, release the power button at the right moment when the power symbol appears or the screen goes black. Press and hold the appropriate button(s): Edge x40 Series: LAP/RESET. 3. Connect the device to the computer using the USB cable. 4. Wait for the device to be recognized by the computer (may take up to 30 seconds). 5. Release the button(s) on your Edge. 6. When prompted, install the USB device drivers: 1. Select No, not this time.2. Select Next. 3. Select Install USB drivers automatically (recommended). 4. Select Next and wait for the USB driver installation to complete. 5. Select Done. 7. Open the Garmin drive. 8. optional Open the Activities folder and delete all files contained therein. 9. optional Open the Courses folder and delete all files contained therein. 10. optional Open the NewFiles folder and delete all files contained therein. 11. For Mac users only: Empty the Trash on the computer. 12. Safely disconnect the device from the computer. 13. Turn on the Edge device using the power button. The Edge device should now start up properly again. If this does not work, further files must be deleted
Firmware Issue (I guess). My favorite app, My Edge2 disappeared after the latest firmware upgrade (sic). I uninstalled My Edge2 and reinstalled the latest version. (The developer acknowledges a conflict with his app and the 1040 firmware). Anyway, I still cannot find the app when I go for a ride. At the same time, I can see that the settings on the app are exactly as I set them some time previous. Comments? Advice? Suggestions?
Thank you, nice person. Seems to be working while I am sitting on the couch. Maybe it will work outside when I am rolling from one exclusive outdoor cafe to the next.
