View 14 RepliesI bought my Golf Edition a few days ago. Ran into some issues but eventually resolved it myself (as I ended up in a circle trying to reach someone that could support me from Motorola but without any luck). Just want to share my experience so that if someone ran into the same issue, they probably can try it.I live in Ontario, Canada. My Motoactv came with US maps and I needed to download Canadian course packs.I have my device connected by USB. I followed the instruction on screen to download the Canadian Ontario packs. It gave it a five seconds trial and gave me an error of "Insufficient Memory, remove some music". I have no music stored and i had over 12 Gb of space left. I reset eveything to factory condition and still didn't work.
I went to a Wi-Fi hotspot at my golf club, got it connected and retried again over Wi-Fi. It didn't work and gave me the same incorrect error message.Getting quite frustrated, I was trying one last time at home before makting the decision to return it, placing the device close to my Wi-Fi router at home. This time it works very well, and downloaded everything.So, it looks like that the "Insufficient Memory" message could mean that the connection between the device and the server is not strong or fast enough and have nothing to do with memory. The work around is to retry in a place when the Wi-Fi connection is very strong and fast.
how to add on golf courses ... I'm not referring to the courses that is in the MOTOACTV database.I'm trying to add courses which are not in MOTOACTV data base.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have previously been syncing my golf workouts automatically with success. Recently, the rounds (workouts) will not sync. I have tried manually initiating sync from the device (runs forever) and syncing USB (times out) without success then tried reseting the device to factory. I reconnected USB and had to choose replace my devictill no success. I was able to re-download courses and my previous rounds were still on the device (this confuses me as I performed factory reset
View 2 Replies View RelatedI play the same courses quite often. And, I have certain things that I would like to manually map as spots that I like to be at on the course on any given hole.Is there a way to hit a button on a location on the course and manually mark that spot? Like a custom targets per hole?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI used my watch this weekend to play a round of golf. The round took about 4:15 to play and when I was done my battery went from 100% to 10%. My watch is on "marathon" mode and I left the screen on the whole time. This barely seems like enough to get through a full round of golf, is this the battery time everyone else is seeing?
2 weeks ago I ran a marathon which took me a little under 4 hours and I'm pretty sure my battery was at 50 or 60% when done. I also left the screen on the whole time. The only thing that has changed between then and now is that I upgraded to the latest version of the software.
As a test I set a goal to walk 200 miles. Since then I have logged 2 rounds of golf (10 miles) but the miles do not count towards my walking goal. But they do count towards my second goal of working out 3 times a week. How do i fix this since golf is my primary walking sport. I want credit for the miles to show in my goal.

If not could it be included in the next update?
Is there a way to edit a workout after it has been synced? This includes my golf scorecard.Not that I am trying to cheat, but I didn't enter my scores in during the round.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI know that when you press "start" to mark your next shot the distance of the last shot flashes on the screeen.
Is there a way for me to see the distance from the last shot without locking in the position with the "start" button? This is a feature I would use all of the time with my other GPS unit to know how far away I was so I would know approximatly where to start looking for my ball if it wasn't sitting out in the open. Also very useful for letting your playing partners know how far their drives went.
Problem: When I attempt to do a course update or add new course it will run for hours (circle keeps spinning) and drain the battery. I reboot the device and it shows the last update was done that day (no time statement to confirm last attempt successful) but I'm not sure if it completed properly.The mulitple segment course update works great (hence my attempt to update my courses) at Flanders Valley, NJ.Has the update feature been fixed so changes to skydroid can be updated to the MotoActv?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've owned the MotoActv for two month, I got the mysterious "moisture issues" that everyone seems to be getting even though I've never used it in the rain. But the thing that is driving me nuts is the music. When I hit random shuffle of all my songs, I hear songs I don't want to hear... song that I do not own on my computer. Where are these songs coming from? Today I heard "Boot Scoot Boogie!" I abhore country music as does my wife. Doing a computer wide search shows no evidence that the song exists on my computer. Yet there it is playing in mile four. Other mystery songs have showed up too. The performance music playlist seems to be filled with songs I never heard of, yet evidently I perform well to them.

The software itself seems to downlaod quite successfully in about 30 minutes and a Desktop icon appears on my computer desktop. Each time I double click to open - run the programme an error message comes up as Follows"Desktop manager has encounterted a problem and needs to Close" sorry for the inconvenience etc.I have uninstalled and re-installed the programme more than once to no avail and I just cannot get the programme to run.I have seen a post/ posts where it was suggested that the way round this was to go into programe manager- locate and delete the folder" Research in motion" I have tried doing this- the folder is deleted it goes into the recycle bin and there is therefore no program to be opened- so something is not right here- maybe I am not reading the advice correctly.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI see that people say they use the MA as a watch. Perhaps it's a problem with my unit, but if I wear the MA as a watch, no Bluetooth, no music etc. I have it timed out at 15 secs (makes a boring watch) and the brightness guite low... it never lasts the whole day before I have to recharge it. Seems a bit pointless having a "watch" that runs out of power before the day is through.If you use the MA simply as a watch (ignoring the silly steps counter which can't be turned off!) how long do you get?
