Hi there,
I am having real trouble getting my routes to transfer to my Garmin.
Ever since I've been using Plotaroute, so go, some dont and its getting to the point of being unusable.
HELP
Can someone please explain why this isnt working and how to force a sync of route?
I have been using the 'star' option ... black = to be sync'd .... blue = synced .....
excep[t that doesnt work or isnmt accurate. I have a number of blue starred routes which are not on my Garmin.
Any help, gratefully recieved.

Hi Graham,
I'm sorry to hear about this issue.
I've looked at your account and see that you set up the link to Garmin again.
Has this solved the issue since?If not, could you tell me which starred routes aren't getting sent to Garmin?
I'll see if I can find any reason for this.Kind regards,

Graham, pick a totally new, obvious route. Star is (should go blue). Then check your Garmin Connect account to make sure it's there. I believe it syncs to your Garmin device via Connect, so check that part is working first.
When working normally, blue synced routes appear on my Garmin device. If then deleted from the device, they stay blue in PR, it's a one-way system. Just for interest. -

Thanks for the comments. Ive re-linked my Garmin, rebooted everything, & it now seems to be working.
fingers crossed.

So, it's still not working for me. Removed the link to Garmin, set it up again, and now all my starred routes are grey. I know that plotaroute is being killed off, such a shame as it was good and I've been paying for it for years. Time to move to something else I guess if anyone has good suggestions for a site that actually syncs with Garmin?

My Garmin LInk is not working.
Normally star the new route and it automatically downloads to Garmin. Always worked well, now it has stopped.
I deleted the connection and rejoined, still not working.
Is there a problem at your end or is there something I need to do.
Please help.
This potentially will force a move to RWGPS which I really don't want!

I have also discovered I can now only download routes on my PC/ web.
I will normally do 'everything' on iPad and phone so this is inconvenient and when I am away on long distance tour would cause me serious hassle.
No such problems with RWGPS......
There seems to be an absence of reaction by admin to previous alerts regarding these major problems. Please ???

I guess they really do want everyone to move over to visorando with its worse interface, lack of garmin connection, and generally less functionality, so they are slowly doing everything they can to kill of plotaroute. I know I won't bother renweing my premium subscription when it comes round again...
