Garmin not synching with GC AND Strava

ronaldbr

For the I don't know how many times now the Garmin 1040 SOLAR is not synching with GC and STRAVA.

Need to re-install again...

How difficult can it be?
Getting sick here with this company and they refuse to solve matters that last long time.

Am I the only one?

regards,

Ronald

    No, you are not the only one, but it has only happened a couple of times to me in the two years that I have had a 1040. One of those times was yesterday. When I finished my ride it didn't sync to GC. I tried again an hour later and it synced without a problem. I do sympathise with the folk who seem to have unending problems, but I have found the 1040 to be pretty reliable. Maybe I've just been lucky.

    Syncing with Strava requires syncing with the Garmin servers first so it's not an additional issue, only a byproduct of the first problem. For me it only happens when the Garmin servers have problems and this solves itself after some time automatically.

    But if you mention "reinstalling GC" then I gather you don't use the direct WiFi sync from the Edge to the Garmin servers but the bluetooth sync from the Edge to the Garmin connect app? This doesn't change much though, the app won't accept the activity as long as the servers are overloaded.
