I've tried everything else that is suggested to fix this problem.
And you needed both. The former was just used to just push the data from your device to the Fitbit servers; the latter was used to look at your data and stats. In order to use Fitbit Connect, you need a Fitbit dongle, and that came with older models of Fitbit. Naturally, you can get one from the Fitbit store. On newer computers, you can do syncing, look at your stats, and even participate in challenges from the Fitbit App.
Though, you'll need that computer to support Bluetooth LE or the Fitbit dongle. If you're on Windows 10, there is literally nothing that Fitbit Connect can do that the Fitbit App cannot. That said, when you run the Fitbit App on your phone, in order to get notifications to work, it keeps a more persistent connection to your Fitbit.
This is what Fitbit calls 'bonding'. Since this is a persistent connection to your Fitbit, it occasionally disrupts the ability for other devices like your computer to sync with your Fitbit.
Try disabling Bluetooth on your phone or turning it off entirely to see of you can get your Fitbit syncing. Hi, and thanks for your excellent explanation. I have an older laptop which is running on Windows 10 but I do not have BlueTooth. I also have the dongle that came with my FitBit.
I've tried syncing with the dongle, but nothing seems to happen. Defective dongle, maybe? Great explanation PureEvil. Thanks for confirming those details zuni When the Wireless Dongle is not working you usually get information about it.
But why don't you delete all programs from Fitbit that you might have on your computer, then turn off the firewall and reinstall the Fitbit Connect here. Since you mentioned that you have a Windows 10 computer as soon as the Fitbit Connect finishes the installation of the program you will be prompted to sync your Fitbit.
Please clean the Wireless Dongle with a toothbrush with rubbing alcohol and connect it when you get the notification from the Fitbit Connect program. Let me know if you get any message or error. I can still synch with my phone, but it is not always convenient. I do not see this as a step forward.
By chance did you have your Fitbit linked to your phone? If so, it is common for the phone to hold a connection to your Fitbit such that it can't been seen, or synced, by your PC. Hey rjmatthews62 nice to see you here, welcome aboard! Thanks for jumping in Michael.
I'm also happy to see that you were able to fix the syncing issues with your Windows 10 pc. Our good friend Michael , has a good point there. Hopefully, you won't have same issues again. But if you need help we'll be around. This Solution no longer works. Everytime I try to download the pc version it immediately opens and forces a download of the FitBit App.
I do not want the FitBit App. I want FitBit Connect! This is the only way my Ultra will sync. I love my Ultra and don't want to change it. I just want to use it as I have almost everyday for years, only now on my Windows 10 machine it will not work. Any more solutions out there? Hey there, ChrisRO21! Welcome to the Family! My apologies for the delay. Thanks for reporting this. You just need to make sure you have a Fitbit tracker. As mentioned earlier, the app lets you view your performance since you began using the band.
Once you sync your watch and the application, you can manually log data, set alarms, check your average heart rate , customize your display, track sleep patterns, and integrate with social channels to send and receive messages. The Fitbit Windows desktop app is, as mentioned before, an extension of your Fitbit watch.
After you download and open the Fitbit activity tracker app on your Windows device, you get two options: to set up a new device or to sync.
As a first-time user, you'll have to select the first option and then choose your tracker from a list of available choices.
Once you finish, you can either create a new account or log in using your existing credentials. To pair your device to the desktop application, you would need the USB dongle you received with your watch. When you plug the dongle into your PC, you'll want to make sure that your Fitbit band is within close reach. After the pairing is complete, the application will sync available data anytime the watch is around your Windows device.
Another way to pair your watch to your PC is via the Bluetooth function. The latest version of the Fitbit desktop app has been redesigned, keeping in mind the Window 10 interface. This has been done to provide additional features and support for Cortana and Continuum.
The quick actions feature available on the Windows application lets you manually log a lot of information that can give you a better idea about your health.
The app also lets you set alarms and view all your notifications in a consolidated tab. This Windows application will sync well with your device and provide you with accurate information. Since the application is cross-platform , you can also download it on your Android or iOS device.
Other applications are possible, such as Zwift.
