  1. I just experienced the issue again tonight. All my settings at Groundspeak, and in my iPhone 6 (latest iOS) are all correct. All my field notes were +8 hours

  2. I have also experienced the issues mentioned above. Souvenirs here one day and gone the next, souvenirs for places I havent been, and I also have some on my I-phone that are different than the ones on the computer. WHY??? Someone please explain.

    Thanks,

    Richard

     

    Let me guess. The ones are your iPhone are the Delaware souvenir and one from Germany.

     

     

    Thanks. That made good sense.

    I have, however, earned an early locationless cache which was originally posted from a cacher in Delaware, so I assumed I earned that one, but it doesn't appear on my official GC souvenir collection, which isn't a problem.

     

    If I un-install the GC app from my phone, then re-install it, does the situation correct itself? I haven't tried.

  3. I live near the Canada-USA border. I can filter PQs to exclude USA or search only in Canada, or in a province of Canada, but I can't do the reverse. I'm building a PQ for a US city near the border but I only want US caches, and USA is not a choice in the country list. Caches are wanted in several states, so filtering by state isn't helpful either.

    Can you please add USA to the country list?

    Thanks

  4. Yep, you've double logged a cache.

     

    I know nothing about MacCache, but any good cache management program should be able to identify double logs, for example in GSAK you can either sort on find count (most should be 1, so 2 would float to the top) or filter on caches that have more than 1 find, two pretty easy ways to get the same answer.

     

    MacCache doesn't seem to be able to do that, as it has no search or sort capability for logs

     

    If I sent you the PQ, could you run that through for me please?

  5. I have downloaded an all-finds PQ today and used it to play with the MacCache software. In the process, I found a discrepancy in my cache count

     

    According to GC.com, I have 2831 Traditional Cache finds

     

    In the All-Found PQ, there are only 2830 Traditional caches, and all the other types balance.

     

    Could I have logged one cache twice?

    Could the PQ have missed one?

    Aside from crawling through 2831 cache logs, how do I find this?

     

    Suggestions?

  6. I received an eMail moments ago, purporting to be from GeoCaching.com asking me to validate my account, but it has been validated for years. Is this real or phishing?

    I couldn't se anything on the site or in the forums saying that people have to re-validate

     

    Also… I am not Norshley, I am DNStephens so I'm not sure what this is about

  7. Hello again

     

    I tried the usual things when machines don't work, I rebooted, still nothing, relaunched Safari, still nothing, Quit Safari and tried FireFox.. voila... my uploaded waypoint was in the Waypoints dB of my GPS.

     

    Is this a Safari thing, or what? I can never get Safari to upload pictures, to any web site, so I usually have to switch to FireFox for that too.

  8. Hello all

     

    I just downloaded the Garmin Communicator into my MAcintosh and tried to upload a GCwaypoint into GPS MAp60Cx as a test.

    Communicator says that it was saved ok but I can't find it anywhere in the GPS. Any suggestions where they go?

    I have over 2000 waypoints on an miniSD card, and several personal Waypoints that I've created by hand, but I can't find this new one that is supposed to have been uploaded.

     

    Thoughts?

  9. Get Clicking Web Cam Cache GCKZJJ in London Ontario

     

    http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...1c-94b79d2b09fe

     

    shows up as unfound on my Google map with GeoCaches on it

     

    http://www.geocaching.com/seek/gmnearest.a...p;lng=-80.52703

     

    shows the web cam cache as unfound, and I have a FTF for it and the log is still on the cache page.

     

    Is this a problem at my end or in the way the cache map page renders?

  10. For a cheap and easy option, try a PDA static-cling shield, they are about 8=9 bucks for a packet of 8 or so. Cut them to size with scissors and peal off the backing paper and stick it on. One friend uses them on his GPS and also on the display of his digital camera.

  11. I will attend. HamGran and Knitter have been extremely sensitive in the past, with Julie's death and family, and there is no reason to believe that they will do otherwise with Tony's friends and all who knew him. It is one more chance to remember him with fondness, raise a glass in his honour and make some new friends, all the while doing something we love, caching and enjoying each others' company. HamGran and knitter, can I encourage you to host HarvestFest 2007?

  12. Greetings all

     

    I visited Sue Dawe (Mrs 1701eh) at the hospital in London today. She is in ICU-Observation. I could get in with my clergy credentials but I cannot abuse these privileges so they will be infrequent visits but Sue has said I can come back and visit her again. She also said that I could share this info with the GeoCaching community.

     

    She was very beat up and sore, generally achy all over. She has broken ribs and lots of bruises. She is still taking various medications but is trying to wean herself off some of them and as a result had a hard night last night.

     

    She seemed in reasonably good spirits, knew who I was and was encouraged when I told her that the entire GeoCaching community was worried about her, concerned for her and I hope, praying for her.

     

    Sue said she couldn't remember very much, about the accident and has most of her injuries and damage on the left side of her body, the inside part of the car where the left side of the car was most damaged.

     

    Sue said that she'd been talking to the kids a couple of times, the hospital social worker has helped there.

     

    Please continue to pray for Sue, and for the family. I will send more news as I get it.

  13. Actually, I'm no longer getting any maps, on any GeoCaching pages. I'm using a Mac and SAfari and a few days ago, all the maps disappeared so I have to click on Google Maps, or MapQuest to get any maps.

     

    I'm not sure if this is a web site thing, or a Mac and Safari thing. I have never been able to upload pics in Safari, I always have to go back to my old unsupported version of MS Internet Explorer to upload pics, but this new map situation does suck.
