Motorola Motoactv :: How To Delete Incorrect Weight Value And More
Nov 15, 2011
how to Delete a incorrect weight value from MotoActv.com, 2) Lock in default metrics (i.e. MPH + Heart Rate as opposed to Pace & always show "non-active days"), 3) Identify how many "real world" laps I've performed in a specific run (aka passing the same point in a 0.65 mile circle around the block), 4) Is there a way to log a "heart rate only" workout (i.e. if I lift weight, play tennis, go boxing, use a row machine or any other non-standard workout ... ideally I'd like to be able to name said workouts as well but, 5) Is there a way to quickly see what song is currently playing on a run (technically I can always go to MotoActv.com after a run to see what songs I didn't like / skipped past and will ultimately remove from my playlist. but it's always nice to see what's playing at that time
When I enter my current weight on my motoactv (8gb) or online in my settings it doesn't save. As soon as I switch to another screen and go back it automatically resets to 200.6 lbs. I've never entered that weight on the device or online. Also, my height measurement in the online settings gets reset, but not on the watch.
The weight Goal section is not working correctly. The graph is stuck on week 8, even though I'm on week 13 it says. I updated my weight goals, but the graph never reset to the new start weight and target dates.
There is a typo on the Weight Loss Goals page.It reads: "I have completed 44% of YOUR weght loss goal..." Please change to either: I have completed ___% of MY weight loss goal..." OR You have completed ___% of YOUR weight loss goal..."
My weight training workouts are not showing up in most areas of the motoactv site. I can see them if I click on the dates I did them on the calendar at the top of the page, but nowhere else. In overall tracking or the "Last Workout" section of the main page, they never appear. Also, on the Calendar at the top it will show 2 weight training workouts on saturday, even though they were a week apart. The other type of new workout from the latest update that I've used, aerobics, does show up normally. I've attached an image to help make this more clear.
Is there a way to enter a cross training or weight training workout using ADD MANUAL WORKOUT on the motoactv.com website? The only options I get are for running, walking, elliptical, step trainer, etc.
I'm cross-training 3 days a week and want to be able to enter a workout I did without wearing the Motoactv.
Just recently purchased the MotoActv heart rate monitor - but I am having a bit of an issue.
I have a personal trainer, and I came to find that when I work out with her I am forced to use one of the options that is pre-set of the watch already, because there is no "weight lifting" option set. The default settings on the watch right now are mainly cardio options, including Stairs, eliptical, walking, running, jogging, etc. When I weight train with my trainer, I always just set it to the running option, but my calories are way off.
if there is a way to set a Weight lifting option to the watch?
After several weeks of very consistent mileage tracks with my MotoActv (8g model), today my mileage was off by .15 for each of the three miles i ran. My run today occurred up in Winter Park (elevation of 8,600 ft) and the temperature outside was 20 degrees. I have the following settings: Marathon mode, ant + for HR, screen timeout enabled and i have the latest update. Does temperature have an impact? Not sure why but I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this.
Today is my rest day. However, when I sat down to organize my training schedule for the coming week, the schedule was showing a weight training workout completed today. It appears that last Sunday's workout is displaying as completed today. This kind of thing was happening shortly after the big software update in March. This is not the only problem I am currently having and I am bouncing around multiple threads at this time. I reiterate, I am happy with the new features included in the recent update, but I am not so happy with the basic functions that seem to have gone awry in its wake.
For the past couple of weeks, I have had some problems with the HR display. The device will show my HR shifting rapidly from up to 209 BPM down to 0BPM and occasionally to no reading at all. This usually happens at the beginning of a workout and goes to normal after several minutes. I keep my chest strap very clean so I know that it isn't dirt and sweat disrupting transmission. When it first started I assumed that it was a sign of a dying battery but changing it didn't make a difference. This only happens during running and aerobic activities. With weight training and yoga there doesn't seem to be a problem.
I'm regularly seeing the incorrect time displayed when I wake the device to check the time. I completely understand not rendering an updated clock when the screen is disabled, but this needs to occur instantly when the display is awakened. Currently the lag can be around 10/15 seconds (I've not measured precisely, but I can wake the screen by shaking at least 3 times and let it blank again before an update).
I just did a run and, looking at it on the portal, the map location displayed when inspecting a particular section of the run is incorrect.
Motoactv is at 1.7.2 N16, normal sampling rate.
The pause in the run at 10min30 should be at the intersection of kerney and filbert which is the highest point of the run. The map displays it at Filbert and Medau Pl
I was checking the portal today and noticed that the schedule section at the top of the page displays incorrect workout info - see screenshot attached.
I am sure that I have not exercised today (it is Sunday, duh) ... yet the schedule shows that I had an exercise today (see red dot on the schedule). So I checked the device and verified that there was no exercise today on the device. And when I clicked to check details on the portal, I saw last week's exercise data.
So got my motoactv yesterday and to test I of course started a workout walking around my kitchen..I can't seem to now delete this test workout from the device? Workout->Recent-Run.I was able to remove it from the dashboard but it will not sync the changes to my device as they are still listed.
I just got my Motoactv but I'm having a lot of trouble setting it up the way I want.Among other things, it isn't syncing the way I choose. I selected which playlists I want to sync to the devive but it has still taken in a ton of additional music that I don't want. I do not want podasts on the device. I do not want anything other than the playlists I choose. How do I fix this?
You can delete workouts and have been able to for some time now(at least since January) . Just go to workouts tab. then click on recent workouts. make sure its in bar view not table view. and place your arrow over your workout. A box pops up. In the lower right hand corner you'll see delete click on it nad your workout magically goes away. It still wont fix your workouts if you got carmichealed but you can delete it.
Is there a way to delete a workout form the history either on the device or on [URL].. When I first got the unit, I checked it out on 3-4 different workouts of about 1 minute each.
A funny thing has happened on my 8GB MOTOACTV. Music that I do not have has begun to appear on my device. I originally downloaded approximately 220 songs and have since added another 15. However, my song total now shows at 401 songs, many of which I would NEVER listen to. THere is nothing worse that running and listening to a great song and have the next one be a Bay City Roller or Cyndi Laupner tune. Are these songs being uploaded when I plug into the website? Were they pre-loaded onto the device?
I have recorded short work outs by mistake several times. I then reset the device and carry out my workout as usual. Unfortunately the motoactv then syncs with my wifi and uploads both workouts.I know that I can delete workouts by hovering over the workout in the bar charts view however this is not the case if you've got a short workout recorded on the same day (as in the above situation). In fact I don't see the dud workout in the bar chart view but when I switch to the table view there it is. Annoyingly I can't delete the workout from within the table view.
Also, are there any known issues of only occasional syncing with a wifi network once it's been set up? Sometimes I return from a run and the workout syncs straight away. Sometimes the workout never syncs and I have to plug in the cable in order to do this. Tonight I actually lost a workout as it didn't sync and then disappeared off the device!
deleting 2 incorrect text shortcuts i created. Settings>General>Keyboard>Shortcuts. you for u and your for ur.I did them in reverse. When i open each one and delete them w/ the Keyboard & hit Save, they're still there. Now when i type "you",the incorrect shortcut "u" appears in text.
I'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.
Let the developers know what new innovations you would like to see in Motoactive. Let them know what Apps, websites, hardware features that are out there that you love and would like to see incorporated into Motoactv.
I was streaming music from my phone on the way to work this morning, and I would select songs from the queue to play, but the song that would play was not the song I selected, nor was it anywhere near the song I selected in the queue. Has anyone else had this happen, and is there a way to prevent it from occurring?Finally, I am very...let's say obsessive lol...about album art in my mp3 tags, so I am certain that they are all correct; however, album art does not show up in Motocast (either via web or on my phone) for some albums (after allowing adequate time to sync) even though the art is included in the mp3 tags and shows up when I play the mp3's in Media Player and MediaMonkey. Have others seen this issue?
My Turbo phone GPS location on several apps is showing him in Atlanta Ga and not in Pa. I swapped out several times and the SIM. My other devices don’t have the issue. It started as soon as I swapped out the device.
Installed MotoSpeak to get the full benefit from the Roadster device. Immediately upon installation received a low storage message even thougth I had 29.97 MB available on my Droid 1. I have run with no problems at this memory amount before. But more importantly, I am unable to receive any text messages. Text messages are "rejected due to full message memory'. I do not have any text messages on my phone. Have deleted all of them before installing MotoSpeak.
This appears to be a problem with MotoSpeak and not my Moto Droid 1. Has anyone been able to get MotoSpeak to work successfully with their phones?
