Download issue on iPhone app
Posted: Tue Dec 22, 2015 5:39 am
Hi Nick,
today i made 4 dives using my Suunto Vyper Air computer. After the dives, i used my DC Buddy to download the new dives to the iPhone app. When doing that i ran into some issues:
1. I used "only new dives" as the import setting. However, instead of only the 4 new dives (all the others were already in the app) the app downloaded 36 dives from my Vyper Air. So the list of imported dives showed 32 duplicate dives that were already in the app. I deleted these.
2. Then i edited the 4 new dives (renumbered them (because of the 32 duplicate dives that i had to delete) added the site, gear, buddy, details etc etc). This all went well.
3. After that i synced the iPhone app. I did this manually using the sync now button. When sync was complete, all information was lost from the 4 new dives. They still were visible in the list of dives, but contained no information. I closed the app and opened it again. Then the dives were completely gone.
4. I then opened Macdive on my macbook. Macdive started syncing automatically at start-up, but the new dives didn't appear.
5. I connected the DC buddy to the iPhone again, and started a new import. Again, instead of the 4 new dives, the app imported 36 dives. I deleted the 32 duplicates again and edited the 4 new ones (but only added the site, type and buddy and renumbered them). Then synced the iPhone app, and the dives remained visible. After that synced Macdive on my macbook, and the 4 new dives appeared. I then added all the rest of the information in Macdive, and synced that back to the iPhone. After that, everything was ok.
Was i doing something wrong in the way i tried to import the 4 new dives and add details to them? Or is there something going wrong?
