Silly question I know but why is it when I try to upload my Garmin to Strava it wont upload.

I have Installed the “Garmin Communicator plugin” but it still wont work.

I can however upload manually but TBH I cant be bothered, what am I doing wrong???

Some Garmins don’t work with Communicator. I’ve never found it to be a problem.

Well what operating system etc are you using?

Wont work for me on Windows 8, unless I go to the desktop first.

OK, how do I check what operating system in running??

Try a different browser. If it isn’t working in Chrome sometimes I switch to Internet Explorer and it works there (although I have to switch it back to IE10 compatability). Also switching USB ports sometimes helps.

Is it recognising the garmin?
Power off, plug in and hold page button while turning it on.

Mine uploads to Warmin no probs, but strava I have to do manually

What model Garmin is it? Strava is a bit limited in what Garmins it supports uploading from. eg it won’t work most of the Etrex models.

You can test the Communicator plugin here, see if it detects your Garmin. http://software.garmin.com/en-US/gcp.html

Garmin **** up everything with their new garmin express thing. Might not be related to your problem though.

My auto upload to strava stopped working last week manual upload works so hasnt bothered me.
