Garmin Edge devices x40 and later are advanced cycling computers and fitness tracking devices.

They decided to forgo native storage functionality instead updates disabled usb storage in lieu of MTP music transfer protocol so Mac’s can no longer mount the edge device for the purpose of dropping routes easily onto the device or extract fit files.

Didn’t buy an edge 1040 as a music player and am really pissed that they have disabled critical functionality for stupid ease of uploading music.

Garmin express doesn’t take the place of easily mounting a device and dropping files or extracting files.
