I've read about other's having problems with the upgrade failing.
I'm developing software that loads ride data from a Fit file. It works fine with the version 2.8 file, but has problems with the 3.0 file. I've started investigating my software and discovered I was improperly handling some data. It was adequate for 2.8 but not 3.0. I suspect Power Agent may have a similar problem.
There is more in the Road Cycling forum, including instructions for how to resolve update problem.
Perhaps I was reading the wrong thread but I did not find that. I have always just unplugged my Garmin from my computer instead of "ejecting" it. Could failure to "eject" the Garmin after upgrading the firmware be the issue that caused this? The Edge 500 forum at Garmin is riddled with all kinds of folks having the same problem... and some others to.
