will not upload wirelessly and when plug in Garmin Connect says cannot import this type of data file
Hope file is not corrupt
I attached the file below in case anyone has a thought on how to fix this. Thanks

File looks fine. It loads into Golden Cheetah without any problems.
Edit: but it doesn't load into Garmin Connect for some reason. Is that your ultimate destination for the file or are you trying to load to Strava or some other site?
I exported from Golden Cheetah to a fit file which loads correctly into Garmin Connect. Try this file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/2tn0me4znt..._ride.fit?dl=0

Contact Garmin. They can and will help.
Are you trying to upload via WiFi or Bluetooth? Garmin doesn't like doing both at the same time. If you want to go Bluetooth to your phone, be sure to pull up the Connect app before syncing. (No, you shouldn't have to, but you do.)
