We have a new computer and I cannot get my garmin running watch to sync with mozilla. The error message that I keep getting is"The address wasn't understood
Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (connectagent) isn't associated with any program or is not allowed in this context.
You might need to install other software to open this address."
Help please

Hi grranchgirl, so you have one set to "Always Activate" and one set to "Never Activate"?
I'm not sure whether the terms "modern" and "classic" mean anything to you, but there is a thread on Garmin's forums that might be useful -- it's very long and I didn't read all of it.

This is for a special URL that starts with
connectagent://
instead of with
http://
is that right?
Two thoughts:
(1) Could you try changing a setting for your Garmin plugin. Here's what I mean:
Open the Add-ons page using either:
- Ctrl+Shift+a
- orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Plugins.
Find your Garmin plugin change "Ask to Activate" to "Always Activate".
Your system information seems to list two different versions of a similarly named plugin. I'm not sure whether that is causing a problem.
(2) Does Garmin's documentation specify any extra steps to set up Firefox, other than installing its add-ons?
I had two plug ins the same, I disabled one of them. Still have the same problem and I can't find any other info. More help please :(

Thanks so much for your help, I don't know what I will do when they stop using classic but maybe they will have that all sorted by then :)
