Mac Apps for trip recording
I would like to transfer my data from my Garmin Colorado 300 GPS and Vivoactive to my desktop Mac to see my stats and compare to my prior performance. I do not have or want a phone.
I use Garmin Connect now for transferring but for some reason it does not like my Drive 50 or my Colorado 300. Both devices work perfectly and d/l to my PC so I am assume it is the Garmin Connect that is the problem.
Strava seems to not like Apple desktops, so it is out.
Any suggestions?

A couple of years ago I switched from Garmin to Wahoo simply because the Garmin SW didn't work properly on my Mac. Garmin admitted there was an issue but offered no promise of a fix.

Of course, if you're sold on Garmin, and they do offer some excellent hardware, run a VM on your Mac. I do on mine for a few packages with no issues. Sure, I'd prefer native SW, but, well, you know...

I have a new PC for a few applications and the Garmins work consistently on them, but I prefer to work with the Mac. The Garmin stuff works sometimes on the Mac and the Garmin guy I talked to implied it was the Mac which was the problem..... Hmmmmm I think it is the Garmin s/w
