Garmin 305 Problems - anyone else had this?
Recently bought a Garmin 305 off ebay.
However I have, from day one had a problem downloading my data after each ride. It keeps saying that there is a problem connecting the device. Has anybody else had this problem.
Oh and just in case - I have not plugged in anything wrong and in the end maybe after 20+ attenpts it works but is this a common problem?
Thanks

I had a bit of a problem with my 205, just stopped connecting. Solved it by doing a hard reset, it's something like holding down mode and enter for 5 seconds... it'll ask you to choose language if it's worked. You'll lose the data on it though.0

Hiya,
Ive had a similar problem with a 705, struggle to get it to connect from the front (MacPro) USB port but connects perfectly every time from a rear port and from the USB port on my monitor. The front port is not faulty as graphics tablet, mouse, phone etc. all work properly in it.
Think I read somewhere when I was researching this problem that its something to do with the port address.
In other words, try a different port.

Go to Garmin and download the latest plugin called 'mapsource' this has just solved all my probles and now allows me to connect to memory maps.
Hope it works0 -
I had the same problem when I bought my new PC. Installed the software, and kept getting that error message.
I downloaded the latest version of the Training Centre software, and that seemed to solve my problem.0
