Can't see my Garmin 245 music in the Macbook finder.

Looks like is always stays in Garmin USB mode. Despite changing it to "MTP modus" . Anyone has an idee?

For a mac, with any of the Garmin Music devices you need to use something like Android File Transfer

Macs only naively support Apple media devices.

I wanted to write the exactly same. My watch counts way too much distance walked throughout the day, wanted to update to latest beta but can't. It is not shown in Macbook MacOS finder. Never ever happened before. A full reset doesn't fix it. Maybe a HW problem? No idea, normally a hardest should fix things.

Thank you so much, didn't know that, never had a Garmin Music device before.
