The Training Centre maps are pretty c**p. Sporttracks is the way to go, it's ideal and a free download. There are lots of links to it on this thread or just do a google search for it. I still havent heard from Garmin ref the download problem, so presumably they dont care!
Will have a look at Sporttracks, did you have any chatroom pop-up problems Kevin?I've actually been prompted to send an error report to Garmin tech.support tonight, and i've asked for a reply giving guidance/info, so we'll see what happens. Won't hold my breath though.
Has anyone actually managed to download it yet; do we know if it's worth the mither?
Apologies for repeating myself (posted on another thread already) but am after any advise to retrieve history for Garmin 305. 6 months worth has just dissapeared overnight for no reason!?
Annual Training Plan (set up for your races)
Nutrition Tracker with Calorie Scanner (reads bar codes of food labels to track your cals)
Workout Planner
Daily Log
Reports and Graphs
File Library
Race Tracker
GPS Mapping like sportracks / motionbased
All for $10/month (appx. £5!!) - has anyone used this site? -click HERE does the calorie scanner work in the uk?
When I import into sportstracks though, i have the correct distance but the wrong time i.e. it always shows about 20 secs longer per split. Anyone any idea why (we were recovering walking for first few secs after interval) but distnace is spot on each time.
If no one knows why/how to stop this. Anyone got idea of how to correct splits timing as do not see way to do it.

So is it really worth it and has it got similar faults or are they all sorted!!

Anyway the battery is nearly gone, I plug it in, and the charging starts then after a second stops, or as I plug it in the unit starts searching for satelites.
Is it an easy mend, or should I send it back, it is only 6 months old.
Its charging up but when I click on set upprofile to download runs it comes up
there was a problem while communicating with your device Please make sure it is connected to your computer
eh???
In any case, I have a question that hopefully someone will be able to help me with:
My laptop crashed so I am using a backup for the time being. On the first laptop for every activity I brought in to Training Centre, I would update the 'notes' page with comments and general stuff.
I've been able to recover the 'garmin' folder from that laptop and want to copy over/retrieve all that historical data + notes on to the Garmin install on the backup laptop. The problem is that I cannot determine which file holds that specific information. Has anyone else had to/been able recover note data from Training Centre? I can re-sync my garmin with the software, no problem. It's the notes on each activity that I'd really like to recover.
Any useful pointers would be most appreciated!
