        Just noticed the same. No joy for me on Chrome or Edge (which is chromium based so makes sense).

        Getting the same error message as you.

        The only console warnings I get are there as soon as I open the page, mainly having to do w cross-site resources

        Always carry a flaggon of whiskey for snakebite; and furthermore, always carry a small snake.

          @grimeymac the workaround I explained before allows you to get the elevation profile to the watch. You have to draw the route using the suunto app. Make sure not to add waypoints, and while drawing, try not to create lots of points (every tap on the screen to draw a route creates a point). Once you have finished and saved the route, you go to sharing options, and on the pop up menu you choose “copy to clipboard” (I am using an android phone). What I do at this point is I send and email to myself using gmail app on my phone. On the body of the email I paste what I have on the clipboard, which is a link to the route. I then go to my computer, open gmail on any browser, and then I click on the link I just sent to myself. The browser automatically downloads a gpx file named “shared_route”. Then I open movescount web using firefox and I create a new route by importing the gpx file. Before saving the route I add the waypoints. After saving and connecting my ambit to the computer I can see the new route on my watch with the elevation profile.

          I hope it helps!

            @ivansalas Firefox is the key. Original source of the route does not really have any impact.

            Will try opera as well but we’re getting into some niche browser markets there 🙂

              Oh well, now it’s broken in Chrome for me as well.

                Interesting. Haven’t tried this since the OP but, apart from the ever-absent alt data, I didn’t have any problem importing and saving different GPX files on Movescount in the last 15 minutes. Using Edge (latest MS standard issue) and Firefox 76.0.1 (x64) on Win10. The privacy settings on FF are intense; Edge, not so much.

                  Played around with this a bit and it’s about Chrome updating itself to 83, well, kind of. Sometime I’m keeping my browser session open for waaay tooo long and thus noticed this issue several days later than some others.

                  And it’s not affecting just Movescount - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62006020/chrome-83-cannot-upload-file

                    Hi there! I updated my extension Movescount Helper (version 1.1.0) for Google Chrome (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/movescount-helper/cebfemegbnobfibklpbbkaiblcmjgebf), install it and you can upload tracks, despite the broken code in MC web. So far, only the GPX format is supported.

                      Import works now but I’m not seeing anything related to the route. Same behavior for existing routes as well.

                      Really cool extension btw 🙂

                        Hi everybody,
                        I’m new in this forum.
                        I have an Ambit3 and I couldn’t use Movescount (pc and app) for synchronizing.
                        Yesterday I updated my pc with SuuntoLink and the smartphone with Suunto App but I can’t upload new routes and the synchronization with Movescount don’t work.
                        In this situation my Ambit is perfectly useless.
                        Do you have advises?
                        Thank you in advance.

                        Bye

                            I can’t import gpx files into Movescount with Chrome, Edge and Firefox. Also the Chrome add-on doesn’t work in my browser.
                            Does anyone know a way to import gpx routes into my watch?

                                Very weird, but that seems to work indeed. Thanks a lot!

                                  Ciao a tutti, io ho un Traverse Alpha Stealth e non riesco a capire come memorizzare nell orologio il percorso di trekking che vorrei fare. Qualcuno può aiutarmi? Si fa dal telefono oppure dal qualche sito web? Con il mio iPhone SE 2020 a volte il suunto si connette in bt ma non con l app…

                                        @André-Faria yeah this is pretty brutal…especially since Movescount appears to be the way forward for routes in Ambit line

                                          Just found out, if I connect my pc through ethernet it work.
                                          So there must be any setting to change on the router.
                                          If anyone knows what I should look for…
