Forerunner 945 does not allow to sync Podcasts - Bluetooth Error

Former Member over 6 years ago

Hello,

since the last SW Update (2.50) the sync with Spotify does not work anymore. I am able to sync Playlists but if I try two get into my Podcasts it gives my an error on the watch that says "Bluetooth Error - Check connection to Garmin Connect Mobile App". I tried it several times, deleted other podcasts that are already on the watch and restarted the watch and the iPhone.

The 945 and the Garmin App both have the latest version.

Thank you for your help.

Sven

Works for me on 2.50 and Spotify. Sync'd DC Rainmakers Podcast where he talks about Garmins QA issues.

I guess you could try removing and re-connecting it to your WIFI and GCM.

I did already try both (Reconnecting to Wifi and GCM). Did not work for me.

Did you try a different podcast? Maybe there is something wrong with a particular one. My podcasts are still syncing perfectly. I just synced a couple of new ones just now to verify it is working.

I can't even get in the menu where to choose the podcasts you want to sync. When I click on Podcasts it will show the Bluetooth Connection Error. When I choose Playlists or some other point of the menu it works fine.

Have you tried deleting the Spotify app on the watch and reinstalling?

I disconnected completely from Spotify on the watch and logged in again. But I don't know how to completely delete the app.

I've had the same problem from the beginning (fw 2.40) and it's still the same with 2.50.
