hi maybe im doing something wrong but ive just done a ride and want to see it on the map. it wont open in mapsource, training centre or even memory map its a .tcx file by the way. any ideas ??
If you sync the Edge in training centre, you should see it as a ride there. You can then export it as a GPX or something else to view however you want.
Alternatively, this website will convert it into something else for you: http://www.gpsies.com/convert.do
how do you sync it geoff ?
thanks
Have you done a Reset since you recorded your ride?
mick - I'm on a mac, but its under the [b]Device > Receive from Device[/b].
ah tried that . im lost now lol
no druid . ive prob done something wrong but dunno what
I find that a ride isn't uploadable until I've done a reset on the Edge.
File > Receive from Device,
The ride will then appear in the History section (it will have the date against it). Right click it and then export.
Or email me the tcx file and I'll convert it for you

I couldn't remember having to do that when I first got it so I'm glad it's not just me 😯
ive tried the reset no joy.
i think after looking thru the instructions again i dont think i held the lap button long enough at the end i think i just did a lap press for a new lap and then turned it off
its still got the tcx file tho but i think it was user error as ive just realised that last weeks rides not in either when i used it ;-(
bloody thing lol
how did you create the .tcx file ?
i pressed start did the ride pressed lap and turned it off then i had a .tcx file . i guess doing it that way wasnt quite right lol
If the unit was recording and you haven't done a complete hard reset, then the ride data will defo still be in there.
If all esle fails download a copy of Sport Tracks ( http://www.zonefivesoftware.com/SportTracks/) and do a sync / receive from unit using that.
Sport Tracks is better than Training Center anyway IMHO

you missed out how it got from the GPS to the PC...
usually wires and a program are involved
lol just plugged it in and its showing in my memory on the garmin its still on the garmin

is this something on a Mac ? Never heard of "My memory" before. When I plug in my Edge 205 it launches Training Centre which uploads the track...
Is this a 605/705?
its a 705. ive also now managed to bugger up the sneaky way i had street mapping from my sd card on the edge showing as pc basemap on my mapsource now too arsepipe ;-(
