You should be able to fix it for your watch by following these steps (make sure you have installed the latest version of Connect if prompted):
1) Plug the watch into the computer and in Sports Connect, click the Gear Icon
2) Press CTRL (Windows) or CMD (MAC) on your keyboard while you hover your mouse over the reset button.
3) You'll see the reset button turns into a "Turn Off" button.
4) Click it, disconnect the watch and the screen will go dead.
5) Reconnect the watch and it will wake up and it should now update as usual.

Not sure which thread to post this in, there are so many about quick GPS not updating.
I am having the same problem as described above. I have tried a factory reset and following the procedure above. The procedure above allows me to download quick GPS but it expires within hours. Are there any further recommendations?0 -

Other users indicate it is now working when they connect to the TomTom app on their phones.1 -

This is such an awesome tip! My watch was malfunctioning recently - it wasn't recording distance on the run setting (GPS OK, cycling and freestyle working fine) but also HR monitor wasn't giving a true reading. Thought it was finally time to bin my TT watch - but this fixed it
