Has anyone else noticed that when you upload data from your Garmin, that the time of day is one hour later than when you actually ran? My Garmin time is correct, but it uploads to say an hour later. This started to occur when Daylight Savings hit. Any thoughts on fixes? I like getting 'credit' for being out there early!

Do you have time zone set to automatic? Or, depending which Garmin you have, DST set to automatic. It's under "System/time".

I believe Eric has said that logging out and back in will fix this. I've also encountered it (and haven't bothered to log out/in).

Thanks, guys. I will try both of these before I do my next upload.

Logging off and logging back in worked. It probably needed to reset after Daylight Savings.

Thanks so much!

Thanks zoomy - I knew this had happened to me in the past but I couldnt remember why. My computer has been crashing so much lately that I did not run in to the issue this year. Angry

I haven't been able to track down why the daylight savings isn't updated automatically. Which browsers are you guys using?

I've been on firefox for years and I know i have had this problem at one point or another and all I had to do was shut down and restart. I dont know if it happened this year or not.
