Forums >Technical Support>Import from Garmin Connect not working
No import errors. I figured the problem was on Garmins end, but wanted to check. I did figure out a work around. I exported a TCX file out of Garmin Connect and the imported the TCX to Running Ahead. That took about a minute and worked great.
And kudos to Running Ahead. Your free site is more user friendly and works better than the Garmin site.
Hi johngecko,
Could you download the FIT files from Garmin Connect and try manually importing them? If they fail, could you send them to me so I can take a look? On a related note, I did fix the importer a few days ago. The importer rejected some of the FIT files because they contained unknown data values. There were also a batch of TCX files that were rejected as well because whatever software created those files did not follow the file format specification.

Interesting . . . I can no longer import my Garmin with Firefox, but now somehow when I enter an exercise in My Fitness Pal it imports to Running Ahead. Not sure what I did!
