Cache on the spot

Thanks for the laugh of my day...can't stop laughing. Cache on the spot

I finally got it! I re-installed Mapinstall correctly and got the maps installed on my 450. Again, thanks for all your help. Cache on the spot.

I don't know about a "wizard," but the MapInstall program is here: http://www8.garmin.com/macosx/index.jsp I did the mapinstall. Then spent the past 2 1/2 hours checking all the Garmin help files and still cannot select potions of the map in Basecamp to transfer to my 450. I'm too frustrated to continue for tonight. Thanks to all who took the time to help me. Cache on the spot

I checked and the communicator plug-in is installed & working correctly. However, I can't find the All Data folder in Basecamp on my MAC which is very frustrating. I have to leave for a few hours, I hope someone gives me more things to try when I get back here. Cache on the spot

Where do I find the MapInstall wizard? I cannot find it in Garmin base camp on my MAC. No, I didn't select parts of the map. I did do it just now but all it selects are the caches in that part of the map. Nothing turns pink. I appreciate all of you who have responded & are trying to help me. Cache on the spot

The procedure would depend on the version of BaseCamp you are running. The current version of BaseCamp for Mac v3.2.2 works a bit different than BaseCamp Mac Legacy Version for Tiger and PPC software version 2.1.2 So you're going to have to help those that can help you by providing the relevant information needed to help you out, or you're going to have to rely on the HELP file from within the program. I have BaseCamp for Mac v3.2.2. I've tried: transfer/send Oregon450 to device/Garmin custom maps & imagery & send maps with Mapinstall when done. That gives me an error message-"Nothing to send,no data of selected type was found". Clicking on Maps installed shows "City Navigator North America NT 2012.2" and that map is what you see in BaseCamp but not on my 450.

I can't see the All Data folder of my device in BaseCamp. Also I don't see anything on my 450 screen when it's plugged in to the Mac except the Garmin name and the picture of the GPS plugged into a computer. I don't know if this is relevant but I can't turn on the 450 when it's plugged into the MAC. I am lost! Cache on the spot

I bought the $79 Garmin City Navigator 2012 map on dvd. The map is now on my MAC Base Camp program but how do I put it on my Garmin 450? I've spent hours trying to figure it out and I'm very frustrated. Can someone please help me? Cache on the spot

Plug into PC. Turn on. Observe that you now have a new external drive. Navigate to that with Finder and you'll find the folders. Think of it as a thumb drive. Got it done! Many thanks for your help. Cache on the spot

I’m trying to update the software on my Oregon 450 from version 4.52 to version 5.10 using Garmin's BaseCamp for Mac and Webupdater for Mac version 2.0.6. Instructions say to transfer all tracks, routes & waypoints to Basecamp which I’ve done. Then it says to delete the /Garmin /GPX folder from the handheld’s mass storage. My question is how do I get to the mass storage on my 450 in order to do that? I appreciate any help with this. Cache on the spot

I am on Windows XP. I went to internet options…privacy…edit web sites…typed in the Geocaching.com web site…clicked on allow…then on OK. Log in went fine after that. I had changed some of my security settings yesterday so I hope that was the problem. Thanks to Team AlphaOmega and Keystone for your help. Cache on the spot

Never had a log in problem before. I tried 7 times just now. Any solutions? Thanks, Cache on the spot

A yes vote from me. Great idea!

For one thing it's no big deal that it isn't counted as a find...I was just wondering why. My daughter and I had fun finding it and that's most important to me. The Cosmonauts-Lar & Cin put out some real nice caches. This one is especially nice because of the awesome memorial. By the way, we went there just after the snow melted and the top few inches of ground was thawed out, hence the mud. Cache on the spot

Problem solved. Good point IVxIV, I never thought of that. I'm almost sure that the ID stayed the same. I guess I'll go back to cleaning the slimy mud off my shoes Cache on the spot

It's only been a week so maybe not enough time yet. What Groundspeak did was to put the 2nd find in the spot of the 1st find back in Dec 2003 and list it there as found last week Thanks guys & gals, Cache on the spot

A cache I had found about a year ago was relocated to a new area...I got permission from the owners to find and log it again...but Groundspeak is not counting it as another find Is this because the cache was not renamed? Cache on the spot.

Thanks Thot, that is the best beginners info I've ever seen. Jeremy should hire you to rewrite their introductions to newcomers. Your free software looks great also. I'm downloading it right now. Cache on the spot

The Garmin Legend info says it can upload parts of Map Source maps. Does anyone know how much the Legend will hold? Thanks for your help gals & guys. Cache on the spot.

Renagade Knight...Sounds like a great idea. How can you make a cache without getting it in the approval que? Pat

Is it legal for me to take my own racer to a nearby state and log it into and out of a cache? Cache on the spot

Thanks Seamus and Brad for the help. I did do a search for the info but evidently used the wrong keywords. Cache on the spot

Help! I made a mistake on my race car bug's model name. Can I change the name? The bug is is activated but still in my possesion and hasn't been placed in a cache yet. Cache on the spot

Wow! You guys are great! The Drive Time Maps are awesome! I have S&T 2003 and not in a million years would I have figured out by myself how to it. I would have given up trying after about a half an hour. Costco still has S&T for $15.95 after the rebate which is what I paid. Thanks Pat Cache on the spot
