One thing to try is to see if you can import just one dive. If you are selecting all the dives from MacDive2, perhaps you have just started using Dive Log and Dive Log Manager and you are importing a large number of dives? How many? Could it be so many that it's just taking a really long time? Do you see your existing logged dives in the bottom window at all? Or are you using a new, empty logbook? It's possible that the "new" ones are "off the screen" and you need to scroll down to see them for some reason. Once imported, the "new" dives will also show up in the bottom window. What is *supposed* to happen when importing dives from any format is that you select the dives to import in the top window, and you select the dive(s) to import *into* in the bottom window. To fix this, unplug and replug the cable to the dive computer.Sorry that you are having difficulties figuring out Dive Log Manager. Make sure dive computer shows “Data Transfer” sometimes it will timeout and go back to “Time” mode.Check device id by running this command in terminal.Check USB devices by opening terminal and running.When importing data from my Suunto D4 into MacDive, I sometimes see the following: Import Errorįailed connecting to dive computer on serial port '/dev/tty.usbserial-ST000001' (Error Code: -7) Troubleshooting Error Importing from dive computer Then open DiveLog on the iPad and download the data from iCloud. In DiveLog on the iPhone, upload the data to iCloud.Do the same thing as was done in step 5 but on the iPad. Overwrite the iPad data with MacDive data.To get the data on my iPad, I then do one of 2 options:.If this is the case, I find it easier to overwrite the data in DiveLog with data from MacDive. Assuming you’ve followed the steps above, all the latest data will be in MacDive. This will serve as the “master” source for your log book. Make any changes/additions to logs in MacDive.Import the dives from iPhone (DiveLog) using the “sync” button in MacDive.The synchronization processes will merge the dives based on the timestamp so it is important to do this before importing from DiveLog. To merge data you’ve recorded on your phone with the data on your Mac, set the date and time of each dive on the iPhone (DiveLog) to match data from the computer (MacDive).Import new dives from dive computer to MacDive (recommended: “Only New Dives”) (File -> Download Dives) The dives recorded by your Dive Computer with depth and other info will now be in MacDive.In order to get everything logged in the DiveLog app and recording on my dive computer synchronized with MacDive I do the following: Here are some of my discoveries in getting everything to work. I’ve found this system works pretty well but keeping everything in sync can be a bit tricky. To do this, I use MacDive for logging the dives on my computer, I use the DiveLog app for logging on my iPhone and iPad, and I use my Suunto D4 dive computer for tracking realtime dive data underwater. Furthermore, I want to synchronize the dive data from my dive computer into my logbook and keep all the data in sync. Of course I want both a portable version that I can use to log my dives while at the beach or on a dive boat as well as a more full-featured version on my laptop that I can add details to later. As a scuba diver and tech guru, I enjoy logging all of my dives electronically.
