Anyone else seeing this? Tried to upload yesterday's run today but get:

"Garmin Communicator Plugin is out of date."

I've been using the plugin for the past year with no problems up until today.

Thanks,

Do you have the latest version installed?

You can check your plugin version number on this website: http://www8.garmin.com/products/communicator/test/ It should show: Communicator Plugin is properly installed and up to date, version 3.0.1.0.

According to the official release notes of garmin, this is the latest version they released: http://developer.garmin.com/web-device/garmin-communicator-plugin/release-notes/

When you enter about:plugins in your browser the plugin should report version 0.3.6. If that is not the case your version is outdated.

Ubuntu disables ppa's during update to a new release, which means after upgrading you always have to enable the ppa's again.

Thanks for the response. It was totally my fault, I started using Chrome. My Firefox setup still works as usual.

On another note, should the latest Garmin watches work (910,610,410)?

Thanks again for the Linux plugin!

Chrome should use the same plugin as Firefox, you might want check which plugin is used by Chrome. Simply enter "chrome://plugins/" into the address bar and click on the "[+] Details" button at the top right. The plugin is only one file "npGarminPlugin.so" - so you can simply replace that old file with a newer copy (or delete it and see if Chrome finds the one that Firefox uses).

The Garmin watches 910, 610, 410 all use the ANT+ protocol which has not yet been implemented into the plugin - sorry.
