| Garmin marathon schedules and macs | |
 Hi
I use my Garmin Forerunner 205 on a Mac and want to download the marathon schedules from the RW website but can't get it to work. Looks like I need a version of Garmin Training Centre (3.1) that I can't download for the mac, but am I right? I've spent ages doing this and it's driving me mad - can anyone help at all? Cheers Kate | ||||

Tried that already - that's how I'm getting my Garmin to work. The .wkt file just doesn't seem to be compatible with the mac version. Are you using a mac Andy and got this working? Henry - you need to upgrade your PC version to 3.1 or above (that much I know!).

Still won't work - found out from Garmin that the file format .wkt used by RW isn't compatible with Macs
 Henry, do you have the contact details of that techy at RW so I can get in touch myself? | ||||
| ||||
 Yes, please post solutions to the group. I've been having the same problem. Have up to date version of Traniing Center for Mac. It doesn't like files with a *.wkt extension....have tried renaming file, but to no avail.

Thanks henry, but that e-mail bounces: Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently: | ||||

 My MacBook and my 305 have never got on since the day they met. This is frustrating because I'd love to use the RW marathon stuff on my Garmin.

 Tom In the email address I believe it should be spelt Rodale NOT Roadale. | ||||
| ||||
Thanks I'll try that

 Hi guys Just to let you know we are looking into this for you - hope to post an update soon. Thanks for your patience. | ||||

 Hey All, Unfortunately, as you're finding out, the Garmin Schedules are not compatible with Macs. I see some of you are also have issues with the dates once you've carried out the download. Can I ask you to supply me with the link to the schedule you're downloading, the version of Training Center you're using and finally any pace or HRM variables you're inputting. Thanks for your patience and sorry for any frustration caused. Dan RW | ||||

Thanks a lot Daniel, please keep us posted. One work-round would be to find a technologically-backward friend with a PC, persuade them to let me put Training Centre on their PC, download the workout, and then sync my Garmin to their PC, then sync it with the Mac, and the schedule will be uploaded to the Mac. | ||||

 Colin... 13/04/2008 is March 13th? What's the problem? | ||||
| ||||
| ||||
They weren't last year either, but I've contacted the helpful chaps at Garmin and asked if they can come up with a solution before the 16 weeks start. I can't promise anything but we'll certainly look into this for you and try our best.
