... until after i did wifi sync. (i was trying to get a widget and watch face installed but they stayed in the download queue).
i tried reboot the watch, and my phone, and it continued to fail on syncing. i finally gave up and went with wifi which worked. i then turned off wifi, and since then on a few attempts, syncing worked (initiated either from the watch or Garmin Connect app (iOS)
anyone else had this problem?
