    Any one having issues uploading to Strava today?

    Tried my 810 on a mac and pc with the latest software and cant upload. The computer doesn't even recognise the 810

    If the computer doesn't recognise the 810 it'll be a computer problem, not the Strava or Garmin websites. Does it show as a connected USB device if you look under the network folders?

    If one computer didn't recognize it I would say its a computer problem but two computers on two different operating systems don't recognize it.

    Doesnt show up as a usb device

    Are you using the Garmin lead or another one? My 500 is very particular about the Garmin lead, and refuses to work with any of the others I have

    Do this and it will pick it up. My 810 got soaked one day and I have to do this all the time now

    Force to Mass Storage -

    Turn unit off. Hold the lap/reset button while plugging the unit into the USB. Continue holding the lap/reset for 30 seconds and the unit should go to mass storage.

    When you say it doesn't show up as a USB device, do you mean you can't see it in Windows file Explorer (computer or device problem), or it's not appearing as a device in a browser window (possibly a plugin problem).

    Had that last night. If it doesn't show up in activities wait a while and try again - mine was telling me it was duplicate after an upload failed to show but waited 30 mins tried again and it uploaded fine.

    I had this issue with Strava a while back. Try it in Google Chrome rather than IE (assuming that's what you're using). That's the only way I can get mine to upload to Strava

    Had a few troubles getting the PC to recognise the garmin. I cleaned the connectors with some nail polish remover (borrowed from lady nmg I hasten to add) and all ok since.
