I just got it today, I did a calibration, and then proceeded to do a half mile just to see what it records and how it shows up. Well, iTunes said that it sent the data to Nike but it never showed up on my profile. Happy day. So, I dug in the forums and found that there was a solution to uncheck a box, apply some changes, recheck the same box, apply that change, the do a test. Well, Nike has now lost the past 2 sessions I had recorded on my iPod. All that shows up in there is the little ".01" mile test sessions I did trying to get the dang thing to work.

I guess my question is, does it just work from this point, now that it sync'd these two small ones, or should I worry about losing data again?

Hi Chuckpo,
When looking at the forums you might have spotted that Nike+ can be slow updates. I have known it to take overnight for runs to appear.

Hey CP,

I've been using N+ since July '06 and have never lost data. As beerrunner says the Nike_ site can be pretty flaky and slow but miles generally turn up. What device are you using? If the nano can you check your history and see if your other workouts are still there?

Thanks for the replies. I am using the 2G Touch as my receiver. I see the workout in the history on the application, and it is listed as being sent to N+ in iTunes, but it did not arrive. Only after creating a couple of little .05 or .1 mile tests did any data ever go. Those made it, my time today made it, but not that first one. I think I will wait it out and see what happens.

Its nice to have the data to look at, but as long as I know I am doing it then I can deal with a drop now and then I suppose. Probably since it is sync'd now everything will be fine from here until the battery dies.

I just got a Touch 2G and it appears to sync OK. About 5 workouts so far have synced OK.

However, twice I've put on my "running" podcast (CBC RAdio 3 podcast), selected "Now Playing", started running, and four or five seconds later the music stops. I go back to my start, redo the whole process and then it works.

Marked, what kind of holster or carrier or band are you using for your Touch? Right now I'm just cramming it in my pocket, only to hear a minute or two later "Pausing Workout!". Thats when I start scrambling for it to re-start.
