How do you upload your runs to the garmin website? Bluetooth, or USB cable connected to the watch?

It comes with a USB cable but I think you can purchase an ant stick to load it wirelessly.

The watch comes with an adapter that snaps to the watch, then plugs into USB.

That will be the least of your problems.The design is poor. It's difficult and sometimes impossible to connect to the website.I suggest getting a Groman GPS watch, a much better investment.

When you first receive this, you'll have a little ant USB stick that you use when downloading the "Garminconnect.com/vivofit" to your computer. You must pair the vivofit to your computer You also download the Garmin Connect app to your smart phone and pair the device. It'll pair and then say not connected, that's not a problem though. Whenever you want to see your daily results, just push the button on the side of your vivofit until it says sync and let it sync to your phone. I hope this helps!! If you have any problems, you can always google it.

I am afraid than only iphone is supported. You can plan a trace in your mobile and send to garmin via bluetooth or oposite direction. I also have android and I have not connected my garmin yet. I usually pre-plan a trace in Garmin Basecamp on my PC which is more comfortable with begger screen. But I agree that Fenix should be able at least send data to GarminConnect or Strava also on android mobiles othervise bluetooth is useless. But the watches definetelly payd off if you wear them during your adventures.

Do you use RunKeeper currently? If so, expect to have to do a manual export/import to get it to take. Also, MySports desktop app still locks up for me everytime I sync (have to close and reopen/resync). I didn't care much for the MySports website, but I already use RunKeeper anyway. It's completely comfortable, and sized just like a normal digital watch. I REALLY want to like this watch, and I still kinda do. If you're not in a hurry, I'd recommend holding off until/if they fix it... as it seems to be one of the best out there for the price--once it's all working. I'm holding out hope for it, but will be watching my return window closely.

We updated it at GARMINs website. It is relatively easy to do. I think we needed the serial number of the unit. It does take awhile - we left it update over night.

Hi Laurie-I have a Garmin 405cx watch and it works great. You pair it in the same manner as you would pair a foot pod or heart rate monitor.

It depends on what devices you're going to be using. Garmin's cadence/speed sensors, and heart rate straps use ANT+, and seem to be the most common. If that's the case, this is what you'll need to pair your computer to the ANT+ devices, and allow you to use them with Trainer Road. It's also possible that the sensors you're going to be using are capable of Bluetooth Smart (BT 4.0). If that's the case, your computer may already be equipped to handle them. Wahoo Fitness makes cadence/speed, and heart rate sensors that are both ANT+ and Bluetooth 4.0 compatible. For more info, check out Trainer Road's "Getting Started" page.

I have not tried to look back at workout stats of any kind. I was never able to use Garmin Connect properly. That kind of data would be stored through your Garmin account. Try asking customer help there.

I don't know. You should call or E-mail Garmin and ask. Also, while the cable connected to my GPS, it didn't work. I returned it to the vendor who promptly refunded my money with no hassle.

Online only. I have looked for some file viewers but have never found any. The nice offline viewer that Garmin uses doesn't exist for Timex. These are *.pwx files.You don't need to use Training Peaks either since there are a number of other websites that unofficially support this watch, such as MapMyFitness websites.

When i first got it, I was able to connect it once. But due to the walls of my place and limited range, I stopped using it that way. I actually use a Garmin Edge 510, and import the data file that way. Other than that, I wasn't fond of the website that the ANT+ need to connect to. Also not all Garmin products connect to the scale. aka my Forerunner 220 doesn't have the feature. Although this a pain, I still use this scale and otherwise quite happy with its performance.

Interesting! I am looking at buying the 405 without the strap, as I still have the one from my now stolen 305.The Garmin support website says that some versions of the 405 are compatible with the HR monitor. How can you tell if the one you are buying is compatible? Or is it just a trick to make you buy the more expensive version?

I purchased my Nike Sportswatch at a pawn shop and the USB connection cord was missing. IT works perfectly. You can also plus your watch directly into your USB connection on your system and it will charge just as well as transfer the data.

Actually, you can do this. It uploads to Garmin Connect where you can view, and manage your results and you can share these on Facebook, Twitter, email, Google+ and many other social networks.

It's actually pretty easy. You just need the latest software from Tom Tom (my sports) and in there you'll be able to setup your account in several online services like training peaks and runkeeper. Every time you sychrinize your watch it will upload the new data to the services you set up at the beginning. Additionally you can download the my sorts app so you can synchronize your watch without the need of a computer. I hope this helps.
