Garmin 500 - Uploading routes

    I'm off on a 7 day cycle on Saturday and I'm trying to copy the routes from RidewithGPS to my new Garmin 500. I want to be able to follow the route and see the profile ahead to know where the climbs are.
    I have exported the .tcx files from RidewithGPS to a folder on my desktop, then I copy and paste them to New Files in the Garmin folder. But when I disconnect the Garmin (properly) and power it up it starts working... Then when I go into Routes the files are not there. I've done it a few times and three files copied across but I can't get the remaining four to copy across.
    Has anyone come across this issue before?

    Usually when that happens there is a problem with the file, try downloading it again from RWGPS and see how you get on, I'd also copy them across one at a time and let the unit import it before doing the next one.
