    Have you got the latest firmware on the garmin?
    Ive had intermittant problems syncing via bluetooth with a garmin 510.
    Sometimes it takes numerous attempts at turning bluetooth and connect on and off before it will sync.

    Can you not just open it as a drive in the Mac version of Windows Explorer and drag and drop them to “new files”. that’s what you do on a PC.

    If it’s anything like the 810 IIRC when you send a course from the iPhone Connect app to the Garmin (wirelessly/bluetoothly) nothing happens until you do a sync. As mentioned above this synching doesn’t always happen immediately or when you think it will and you have to restart things to remind it of its duty 🙂

    Edit: I don’t use Garmin Express to transfer wirelessly, in fact my PC isn’t involved in that transaction at all.

    Got a smart phone? Pair it via Bluetooth and update that way. I think you can even do it on wifi, without any other device. Mine tells me about updates periodically and isn’t paired very often.
